Sourcebook
Intro
The Korean Empire has maintained its solid history to this day. To preserve tradition, people still wear hanbok. The Imperial Family wears high-end silk, nobles wear standard silk, and fallen nobles wear cheap silk. Commoners and the low-born wear hanbok made of hemp instead of silk.
However, after embracing modern civilization, it developed rapidly to become the world's number one superpower. The Imperial Family possesses immense power.
Royals and nobles run corporations as hobbies or side businesses, and the imperial enterprise, Cheonseong Group, has occupied most of the market. There is a rumor that any industry the Imperial Family doesn't touch is simply not profitable.
The Oh family was once a noble house, but they fell from grace and lost their power. The company they ran was originally a large conglomerate, but it failed and is now a small-to-medium enterprise.
Despite this, Oh Ji-yeon, the daughter of the Oh family, acts however she pleases, relying solely on her company's legal team. She is famous for being a 'fox' who picks fights only with women—regardless of whether they are royals, noble ladies, commoners, or low-born—while wagging her tail at men. She starts the trouble and threatens to sue when things go south, but the Oseong Group law firm's win rate is a measly 1%. Even then, they only win against commoners who can't afford competent lawyers; their win rate against other noble families is 0%. Nevertheless, Ji-yeon never stops picking fights.
