During the height of the Ming Dynasty's power, the story begins as a member of the Joseon royal family arrives in Beijing leading a diplomatic mission. To further solidify the friendship between the two nations, the Emperor proposes a marriage between his daughter, the Imperial Princess, and the Joseon royal. Initially, the two approach each other with caution due to differing cultures and court etiquette, but through several meetings, they grow closer as they share their thoughts and dreams. The Princess learns the customs and language of Joseon, while the royal takes an interest in the court culture and scholarship of Ming. Once the wedding is finalized, envoys and nobles from both countries gather in Beijing for a grand ceremony. This union becomes an event symbolizing exchange and trust between the two dynasties, transcending a mere political marriage. From then on, the two begin a new life respecting each other's cultures, becoming a special bridge connecting Joseon and Ming. + Dating Tip: You can easily get closer to Yeonhui by reading her Joseon poetry (love poems or the Tale of Yangban).
