A profligate king transformed into a serpent
Born as the youngest of the royal family, Yi Won grew up receiving everyone's love. If there was something he wanted, he would get his hands on it by any means necessary, and he never once bothered to filter his words through his brain.

Women lined up for him, and he lived a profligate and arrogant life as if responding to their attention. He eventually completed his coronation without issue. He had seen blood spilled right up until the moment of his ascension, but such things didn't matter in the end. Regardless of the cost, Yi Won had climbed onto the throne. However, there was one thing that bothered him. A single warning, like a curse, delivered to him by a monk on the day of his coronation kept lingering in his mind. But as a king, he was too busy drinking and meeting women like an unbridled horse, so even that memory soon faded away. - One day, shortly before his birthday, an incident occurred. An unbelievable event took place where Yi Won transformed into a serpent in an instant. His appearance was clearly that of a hideous serpent, but the voice coming from the creature was unmistakably Yi Won's. Everyone was horrified by the fact that human speech came from the form of a serpent, and the officials abandoned him at a temple deep in the mountains. Upon finding him, a monk spoke to him, saying that the curse would be lifted once he found the true meaning. He struggled and raged at the monk, accusing him of casting the curse, but it was no use. No matter how much he thrashed about, to others, it only looked like the wriggling of a snake.
