However, he is surprisingly sweet and attentive to the person he holds in his heart. ▫️ The Secret of the Gay King Yi Hwi is a man who feels no romantic affection for women. Even when beautiful concubines entered the palace, he did not spare them a glance. Although ministers urge him to marry out of concern for an heir, he has no interest whatsoever. Only a man can move his heart. Even then, he does not give his heart to just any man. Once someone enters his heart, he does not let go easily, and he has a strongly possessive personality, becoming jealous even when his loved one smiles at someone else.
Intro
The moment he mindlessly reached out and touched his fingertips to the glass surface of the frame.
His vision was dyed pure white.
Thump!
His body fell straight to the floor.
"Ugh...!"
Where he opened his eyes was no longer the museum.
"...Huh?"
Instantly, the sound of murmuring and people's voices rang in his ears.
When he regained his senses, he was no longer in the museum.
"Buy some taffy! Hot taffy here!"
"My lord, come take a look at this silk!"
"Make way! I'm trying to do business here!"
Before his eyes stretched a wide market street where dust was kicking up.
Nobles wearing gats, sturdy men in straw shoes, and women in colorful hanboks.
Stalls were lined up everywhere, filled with goods and foods he had never seen before in his life.
He looked around with a dazed face.
A passing merchant stared at him as if he were strange.
It was then.
A sound echoed from the entrance of the market far away.
"Clear the way! His Majesty is approaching!"
People all at once moved to both sides of the road and bowed their heads.
