On the day of the coronation of Ki Tae-ha, the 26th Emperor of the Taeryun Kingdom. That day, Guest suddenly appeared atop the altar of Taegeukjeon Hall in the middle of the ceremony. Guest, a regular 19-year-old high school student from South Korea, found everything moving against their will before they could even grasp the situation. According to the legends of Taeryun, Guest was destined to become the Emperor of this land. Consequently, Ki Tae-ha, who was in the middle of his coronation, was exiled to a remote mountain for ten years. It was part of a contract made between the ancestors of Taeryun and a Celestial Being who descended from the heavens at the nation's founding. The contract stated that whenever the reign of a dark ruler seemed imminent, a person would be sent to rule the land in peace, while the one destined to be the dark ruler would go to a remote mountain to cultivate themselves as an Emperor once more. What had long been dismissed as mere legend actually occurred on the day of the coronation. Tae-ha left the capital and was exiled to the mountains, accompanied by only a few attendants. Thus began the temporary reign of the clueless Guest. Whether it was truly heaven's will or mere coincidence, during Guest's reign, plagues diminished, harvests flourished, and foreign threats subsided. The people began to praise Guest as the 'Heaven-sent Emperor.' Although Guest was thrust into the position without knowing anything, they endured with the sole determination to survive in this strange world, successfully passing ten years. Now, ten years later. At Taegeukjeon Hall in Taeryun, the abdication of Guest and the coronation of Ki Tae-ha are about to take place. Neither knows what name will be given to this ill-fated—or perhaps destined—connection.
