00:00:00This beautiful girl is named Lee Seol. She never imagined that she was the princess being sought
00:00:14by the president of Korea. Before being crowned as a princess at the age of 26, Lee Seol lived
00:00:21with her adoptive family and studied at a university, majoring in Korean history.
00:00:26To earn extra money, Lee Seol spent her time working part-time at a traditional performing
00:00:34arts show. She was chosen to wear a princess costume, and it was at that moment that she
00:00:40met a handsome diplomat named Hae Young. To welcome important guests from abroad, Hae Young
00:00:50persuaded Lee Seol to continue wearing the royal gown and promised to pay her of $100.
00:00:56However, in reality, Hae Young never ended up paying and claimed that he didn't have any cash.
00:01:04That made Lee Seol furious. She kept following him everywhere to make sure Hae Young truly paid her money.
00:01:15The government, which was actively promoting the restoration of the royal lineage,
00:01:19received full support from the Daehan group, conglomerate none other than Hae Young's family business.
00:01:25It turns out that in the past, Hae Young's grandfather was a trusted confidant of the royal family,
00:01:31who was often given the mandate to search for Emperor Sun Zhang's great grandchild.
00:01:35One day, as his grandfather had instructed, Hae Young hurried to find where Lee Seol lived. As soon as he
00:01:41arrived at the address, Hae Young was completely stunned to see that the girl who had been following him the other day was
00:01:48actually Lee Seol the very person his grandfather had been looking for. He was furious because he felt
00:01:53deceived just the day before at the art gallery exhibition, Lee Seol had introduced herself as Eun Baio.
00:02:00The young man began to suspect that Lee Seol was a con artist who had deliberately approached him to
00:02:05swindle his wealth. Hae Young, who had previously been friendly, suddenly became arrogant and full of suspicion.
00:02:11His arrival, which came with the promise of high pay, was met with enthusiasm by Lee Seol,
00:02:17especially when Hae Young made the decision to stay for a few more days to thoroughly confirm the girl's identity.
00:02:26Feeling at an advantage and comfortable, Lee Seol allowed Hae Young to stay at her mother's inn,
00:02:32but she set the rate at three times the normal price.
00:02:35At night, Hae Young couldn't sleep well because he kept thinking about Lee Seol's identity.
00:02:45He suspected that the girl was his grandfather's biological daughter from a mistress. For a moment,
00:02:52he greeted the girl who was still engrossed in watching a movie in the yard while enjoying some popcorn.
00:02:58Lee Seol shared that she had been adopted from an orphanage when she was six years old.
00:03:03To this day, she is still waiting for the return of her father who disappeared a long time ago.
00:03:09Hearing that, Hae Young vowed to unite her to her dad.
00:03:16The next morning, Lee Seol received a visit from Professor Young Woo,
00:03:20who was searching for an ancient manuscript left behind by Emperor Sun Jung, believed to be buried around the house.
00:03:27Since his college days, Young Woo had been obsessed with finding the crown prince and the princess,
00:03:32who were rumored to still be alive and had disappeared. However, he was disappointed because his
00:03:38finding on the emperor's literature was claimed by Yeon Joo and exhibited in the art gallery.
00:03:43Their relationship became strained because Young Woo was angry on Joo's audacious actions.
00:03:52Learning the bitter fact that Young Woo was his fiancee's first love made Hae Young furious, she retaliated
00:03:58against Lee Seol's actions from the other day by pretending to be his girlfriend in front of Young Woo.
00:04:04In the end, Lee Seol offered to team up with her so they could each win the heart of the one they loved.
00:04:10Haven't had time to negotiate yet, Hae Young urged Lee Seol to leave for Seol because
00:04:15the grandfather wanted to meet the princess soon. Upon arriving at grandfather's house,
00:04:20the girl was greeted with such emotion that he immediately knelt before her.
00:04:24Mama.
00:04:28While crying, the grandfather then revealed Lee Seol's origins, which she was actually the great
00:04:33granddaughter of the emperor. He gave an ancient box containing portraits of the late emperor and the
00:04:39crown prince. Before Jozeon transitioned into the Republic of Korea, the emperor deliberately exiled his
00:04:46son to a foreign land and hid his identity for safety reasons. The emperor's descendants lived in hardship,
00:04:53while the royal wealth was officially managed by the Daehan group. Based on the emperor's mandate,
00:04:59grandfather promised that once he found the princess, he would hand over all the wealth half to the
00:05:05country and the other half to the princess as the rightful heir. It felt like a dream. Lee Seol was
00:05:12completely shocked to hear it. And on top of that, when she found out that her father had passed away,
00:05:18she immediately broke down in tears and tried to run away from grandfather. Equally astonished,
00:05:24Tae Yong tries to chase and hug her as Lee Seol cries. The girl was truly devastated convinced that
00:05:31her father was still alive just as he had promised he would return someday.
00:05:37After feeling abandoned in the orphanage for 20 years, Lee Seol wasn't ready to accept the truth and
00:05:43felt unworthy of being called the princess. Lee Seol asked Tae Yong to take her home to Dana's house,
00:05:50but she wasn't allowed to enter and felt cold under the falling snow.
00:05:55Unable to leave the princess alone, Hae Yong briefly offered Lee Seol to stop by his house for dinner.
00:06:02He jokingly and said would charge her for the room and dinner, just like he was charged when he stayed at
00:06:07the inn. While enjoying their conversation and the steak, both of them were startled by the sudden
00:06:14arrival of Yan Ju, forcing Lee Seol to hide in the room. Yan Ju's arrival aims to gather information on
00:06:26the status of the princess, rumored found. This clearly threatened her existence as someone close to the
00:06:33Dae Han group family. Because if the princess is legally recognized, then automatically the wealth
00:06:40of the Dae Han group will fall into her hands and Hae Yong, who is touted as the heir, will not receive
00:06:46a single penny from the ownership of the Dae Han group. As the prospective wife of Hae Yong, Yan Ju wants
00:06:53to ensure whether her fiancé is willing to support this plan or will sabotage it.
00:06:58At the same time, Lee Seol felt an unbearable stomachache. She also asked Hae Yong to immediately
00:07:08take Yan Ju out so that there would be no misunderstanding. She kept calling, but Hae Yong was hesitant to move
00:07:15because he hadn't answered Yan Ju's question. The girl couldn't hold the stomach pain any longer and was
00:07:21forced to run out of the room to the bathroom before the guest left. From the start, Yan Ju noticed Hae Yong's
00:07:28behavior was odd as he wasn't focused on her fearing his fiancé would catch Lee Seol. Even though he tried
00:07:35to hide it, in the end, Hae Yong couldn't escape when Yan Ju pressed him about why there were women's
00:07:41shoes in his house. Unexpectedly, Lee Seol suddenly came out of the bathroom and Yan Ju saw her. She strongly
00:07:49suspected that her fiancé was having a special relationship with Lee Seol. Hae Yong suddenly
00:07:55turned pale and couldn't say anything. Yan Ju held back her jealousy and chose to leave.
00:08:02She let out her frustration by meeting Yang Wu and hugging him. The two end up spending the night
00:08:08together and Yang Wu chooses to forgive Yan Ju's mistake. She was still trying to gather information
00:08:14about the missing descendant of the emperor. Meanwhile, news of the princess's return was
00:08:19officially released across various media outlets. However, her identity remains undisclosed to this
00:08:25day. The grandfather told Hae Yong to shield Lee Seol from the media spotlight. He also visited the
00:08:31campus and hugged Lee Seol, covering her face from the camera flashes. Rumors became inevitable. In the
00:08:39end, Hae Yong was forced to admit that the girl he brought was his fiancé so that the media would stop
00:08:45pursuing her. One problematic journalist grilled and tried to expose Lee Seol and claiming that she is
00:08:51the princess protected by Dae Han. However, the news remained unclear and unconfirmed until the truth could
00:08:58be clarified. In the end, Hae Yong dragged Lee Seol into Dae Han Hotel to escape journalists. The girl was
00:09:09confused and even thought that Hae Yong was going to ask her to check, in which led her to accidentally
00:09:15hit his face until his nose to bleed. The scandal of Hae Yong's engagement to a mysterious girl who is still
00:09:22a student successfully became a hot trending topic, even surpassing the news about the discovery of the
00:09:28princess. That made Yeon Ju furious, and she demanded clarification from Hae Yong. What was more
00:09:39surprising was that she saw Lee Seol in the same room at the Dae Han Hotel. To cut down on misunderstandings,
00:09:46Hae Yong revealed the secret that Lee Seol is the princess who must be protected from the media,
00:09:52until Yeon Ju, who originally hated the girl, now suddenly respects her. He was only pretending to be
00:09:59her fiancé in front of the media to suppress the news of the princess's return.
00:10:08As Hae Yong's fiancé, she doesn't want her future husband to hand over all of Dae Han Group's
00:10:14assets to Lee Seol, who appeared without knowing that ups and downs his family went through in building the
00:10:20company. Yeon Ju and Hae Yong finally made an agreement they would comply with all the princess's
00:10:26requests as long as he can get due share. Lee Seol's request wasn't extravagant. She just wanted to escape
00:10:34the complexities of royal issues and live peacefully abroad to continue her studies. That was immediately
00:10:40granted by Yeon Ju, who promised to help with the immigration documents right away.
00:10:45Before she can sign the contract, Lee Seol is forced to rush to meet her grandfather on a private
00:10:55helicopter. It turns out the two of them were visiting the grave of the prince who died 20 years
00:11:00ago. Filled with regret, the grandfather apologized to the princess, saying that because of his
00:11:05carelessness, the crown prince had an accident which led to the princess disappearing and being abandoned
00:11:12in an orphanage. Lee Seol can only remember the sad incident of her father's departure. That made her
00:11:18deeply resent her grandfather and try to oppose all of his requests. The grandfather realized that
00:11:24everything he had in his possession actually belonged entirely to the princess and it was his duty to
00:11:30protect it and return it to her. Under the grandfather's orders, Hae Yong was appointed responsible for
00:11:36looking after Lee Seol and ensure her safety so that the princess does not run away again.
00:11:45Although she could hide her identity from anyone while on campus, Lee Seol could not deny in front of
00:11:51Young Woo that she was the princess. Now even the professor was showing her special attention.
00:11:58He even drove her home to Dana's house. The two of them hadn't had the chance to talk closely,
00:12:04because Hae Yong immediately dragged her into the car to keep her safe when reporters approached
00:12:09Danha. In the end, Hae Yong who brought Lee Seol to her mother's inn, who quite far from Seol.
00:12:17He also wanted to hand over a photo of the late crown prince to Lee Seol to keep as a keepsake.
00:12:22His arrival was warmly welcomed by Lee Seol's foster mother, as she thought that Hae Yong and her foster
00:12:29child were a couple looking for a refreshing and serene place to stay. She continued to interview
00:12:35Hae Yong and asked how far their relationship progressed. She even deliberately locked the two
00:12:41of them in a room so they could be more romantic and less shy. After seeing a photo of her late father,
00:12:48Lee Seol suddenly became emotional and expressed her simple hope that she just wanted to continue her
00:12:54studies abroad to be on par with Professor Young Woo, whom she loved very much. According to Lee Seol,
00:13:01her departure could reduce the media's enthusiasm in spotlighting her. With pleasure Hae Yong granted
00:13:08that request and ensured everything, including the comfort of her foster family while he was abroad.
00:13:16Before deciding to leave, Lee Seol wrote a farewell letter to her mother.
00:13:21Leaving without saying goodbye and still keeping her true identity a secret made her burdened and guilty.
00:13:27She wanted to be a devoted daughter, even if just for a moment by preparing various special dishes,
00:13:33tidying up the house, and doing good deeds to leave a lasting impression on her mother.
00:13:38Despite being sad, Lee Seol prepared to head to the airport with determination. Just as she was about
00:13:45to depart, the immigration officer knowing Lee Seol's identity suddenly stopped her boarding.
00:13:52That's because Lee Seol is the most wanted and protected person by the Korean government
00:13:57and is not allowed to leave secretly. It turns out the one who stopped Lee Seol from flying to Egypt was
00:14:03the grandfather who insisted the princess remain in Korea to occupy his throne. The girl was embarrassed
00:14:10because she had sent farewell letters to her mother and her professor. She wanted to take them back and
00:14:16retrieve the letter she had placed inside her mother's Bible, which she usually brought to church.
00:14:21Unfortunately, he was too late. The letter was in the pastor's hands and read to the congregation.
00:14:28Knowing the letter's contents, including Lee Seol's plan to run away, made her mother furious and accused
00:14:34Lee Seol of being pregnant with her boyfriend. However, the girl kept denying it and claimed
00:14:40she just wanted to go on vacation. There was no other way for Haeyoung to convince Lee Seol's adoptive
00:14:46mother than confessing they intended to elope because they didn't receive her blessing.
00:14:50His identity as the son of a conglomerate is also known to Lee Seol's mother, so he gets full support
00:14:56to go with his. When the media was busy reporting on the whereabouts of the princess, grandfather asked
00:15:02Haeyoung to come home immediately and immediately said goodbye to Lee Seol and her mother.
00:15:08He told the girl to stay at the guesthouse and avoid crowded places to stay safe from the media
00:15:14frenzy. Before leaving, he pretended to act affectionately in front of her mother so he
00:15:19wouldn't suspect their ruse. Meanwhile, Lee Seol seems to ignore Haeyoung's message and still goes to
00:15:29campus to meet the professor. The girl wanted to make sure that her letter had reached the hands of her
00:15:35beloved. He's so embarrassed if her love letter had already been read even though he had cancelled her
00:15:40trip to Egypt. Unexpectedly, Lee Seol's presence on Canthus was discovered by several reporters,
00:15:47forcing her to run frantically to hide. This time, it was Youngmu who moved to grab Lee Seol's hand and
00:15:54secure her towards the office room. Hearing the commotion in the media, Haeyoung immediately goes to
00:16:00campus to protect her. When he got there, he continued to scold Lee Seol until the girl refused
00:16:06to come with him and preferred to be with the professor. At this time, the news about the princess's
00:16:15appointment had been officially released and the whole world now knew her identity. Even while escaping,
00:16:21the employees at the gas station tried to take pictures of Lee Seol to document it on social media.
00:16:28To be honest, Haeyoung hates Lee Seol's position because it will threaten all the assets that he
00:16:33should have inherited. If he becomes poor, Yeonju will automatically leave him and the wedding plans
00:16:40will be cancelled, so he tries to find a way to keep Lee Seol away from his throne. The young diplomat
00:16:48even threatened his grandfather, saying he would kidnap and tie up the princess then throw her
00:16:53somewhere far away so his grandfather couldn't reach her. That made the grandfather furious and
00:16:59worried that his grandson might do something reckless. His hatred grew even deeper, especially
00:17:08after learning that his father had been cast out by his grandfather for refusing to restore the
00:17:13imperial bloodline. Together with Yeonju, Haeyoung began a movement against his grandfather and
00:17:19joined opposition council members who demonstrated against the president's plan to approve Lee Seol's
00:17:25position. The council members also spread vile rumors that the princess was a drunkard who frequently
00:17:31changed partners and whose marriages were never officially registered by the state. So Lee Seol is
00:17:38considered to not have the credibility to occupy the position of princess. The plan to take Lee Seol away
00:17:45far is a form of bluff against the grandfather to ensure his position as the heir of Dae Han remains stable.
00:17:52As they traveled farther from Korea, the two took the time to enjoy some seaside cuisine.
00:17:58The girl was truly devastated when she heard the heartbreaking news about her father being accused of
00:18:04betraying the nation and deemed unworthy of being called a prince. She kept dodging in front of the
00:18:10shop guests until Haeyoung dragged her out. The girl could do was cry by the seaside, recalling the few
00:18:22memories she had left of her father from her childhood. In her memories, her life had always been lived in
00:18:28hiding and even as an adult, she still had to stay hidden because many eyes were watching who waiting to
00:18:35take her position. The diplomat now by her side wasn't an ally, but an adversary who wanted to bring her
00:18:41down. Haeyoung's words mentioning the crown prince's disgrace made the girl's heart hurt. He asserted that the
00:18:47emperor's son shouldn't be hiding if he truly believed he was innocent. In the end, with all her determination,
00:18:55Lee Sol decided to stop hiding from people in order to clear her father's good name.
00:19:00She wanted to let the entire nation know that her father had never done what she was accused of.
00:19:10Amidst their conversation, suddenly a young shopkeeper came and informed them that there was a group of
00:19:16people looking for Lee Sol. It turned out to be the grandfather along with several bodyguards ready to
00:19:22escort the princess to the palace. The girl was now officially placed in a luxurious palace and
00:19:29welcomed by dozens of handmaidens ready to serve her. It feels like a dream, Lee Sol is now in the
00:19:36grand palace that was specially built for her. She was served by dozens of attendants and anything she
00:19:42wished for could be granted in the blink of an eye. However, when the princess has occupied the palace,
00:19:47at the same time, Hae Young has to lose everything. Now, all the facilities he had enjoyed were
00:19:54confiscated by the government because the assets had been transferred under the name of a royal citizen.
00:20:00Even the shoes she was wearing weren't spared from being seized. Everything is the opposite of before.
00:20:07Lee Sol becomes a princess while Hae Young suddenly becomes poor.
00:20:11He looked for a way to keep his privileges and threatened to immediately announce his marriage
00:20:20to the princess. Lee Sol, who heard the threat, felt wrong and reported it to Professor Young Woo,
00:20:27until finally the girl asked the professor to take her away to a safe place so she wouldn't have to meet
00:20:33Hae Young again. On the other hand, Young Woo had started to open his heart to Lee Sol,
00:20:39and began looking for excuses to see her. However, just as the two were about to run away,
00:20:46they were caught by Chef Gun Yi, who chased after them on the road, until causing Young Woo to lose focus
00:20:52and crash the car into a road construction barrier. Lee Sol was injured and had to be rushed to the hospital.
00:20:59While in treatment, Hae Young and Young Woo compete to be the one in charge of the patient. However,
00:21:10in the end, Young Woo was forced to give up and let Hae Young look after the girl. Even though her condition
00:21:16was still unstable and she had only recently begun receiving medical treatment, Lee Sol decided to
00:21:22leave the hospital. This is because he had to give his room to a child patient who had run out of rooms.
00:21:27However, unexpectedly, before going home, Lee Sol suddenly collapsed unconscious beside the car.
00:21:34Hae Young was very panicked because he thought the girl was pretending to be sick to avoid him.
00:21:40He immediately took her home and treated her and looked after her throughout the night.
00:21:46Because the fever wouldn't go down, Hae Young used a compress and made sure the condition improved.
00:21:51He stayed up all night by her bedside to take care of the princess.
00:22:00Until the next morning, Hae Young was still so attentive to her and made a bowl of warm porridge for her breakfast.
00:22:08He even fed Lee Sol himself as her hands were still in pain from the bruises on her arm and shoulder.
00:22:14Their closeness didn't last long as Lee Sol became furious again after discovering a document containing
00:22:21a series of cruel news reports about her father. She didn't expect that Hae Young was really the main
00:22:28mastermind behind the spread of false news about her father. The two of them attacked other as Hae Young
00:22:35defended himself and insisting he wouldn't let the princess leave easily and would keep hindering her.
00:22:41His method of spreading the news was considered effective in making the public question the royal
00:22:46family's credibility. In the end, Lee Sol left Hae Young's house feeling emotional. She threatened that
00:22:57she would never forgive him or meet with him again. As soon as she stepped outside, she was immediately
00:23:03greeted by her grandfather who was about to take her to meet the president. Lee Sol's arrival at the palace
00:23:09was warmly welcomed by the president as he wanted to use the princess as a strong background to support
00:23:15his run in the next presidential election. He aimed to gain public sympathy by treating the royal family
00:23:22well. The girl didn't fully understand what was being asked of her, which was to cooperate with him
00:23:29as a token of gratitude for approving the restoration of her long-forgotten family lineage.
00:23:34He wanted the princess to study diligently so she could present herself elegantly as someone in
00:23:40the public eye. Not only that, the president also personally met with a member of the opposition council
00:23:47and urged him to stop bothering the princess. Meanwhile, Yeon Joo, who hasn't remained silent about
00:23:54confiscating Hae Young's assets, is now taking steps to attack. She volunteered to be placed as the chief director of the
00:24:02royal division responsible for managing the royal assets, even organizing the intricacies of the royal
00:24:08family's activities. She did all of this in order to control Lee Sol and remove her from the throne as
00:24:15soon as possible. Her request was accepted by the grandfather because Yeon Joo was the only person
00:24:22considered worthy to lead the royal division. Similarly, Hae Young also moved quickly to strategize.
00:24:29He went straight to the president and offered himself as the princess's private tutor. His proposal was
00:24:37promptly accepted by the president. These two people agreed to help each other in bringing down the
00:24:43princess and became true enemies. After meeting the president, the exhausted Lee Sol immediately wanted to
00:24:53rest in his room. However, just as he was about to close his eyes, he suddenly remembered Hae Young gently
00:25:00touching his forehead and taking care of him last night. The feelings of hatred and the budding seeds of
00:25:05love truly made Lee Sol feel conflicted. The next day, he was surprised by Hae Young's sudden arrival in his
00:25:13room waking him from his sleep. At first, he thought it was just a dream, but it turned out Hae Young was really in
00:25:21his room and said that she would keep an eye on Lee Sol for 24 hours.
00:25:31The handsome diplomat, his enemy, now introduced himself in front of him as the private tutor for
00:25:36the royal family. He boasted that he would discipline the princess by making her more disciplined. He also
00:25:44emphasized that he would stay in the palace and monitor the princess's learning progress to ensure it aligns with
00:25:50noble etiquette. On his first day of work, Lee Sol, who was fed up with him, firmly refused if her
00:25:56tutor was Hae Young. She argued that this would surely spark rumors of their previous scandal.
00:26:03However, in the end, the girl was left with no choice and had to accept it because Hae Young received
00:26:08full support from the president and had met the requirements to become the princess's private tutor.
00:26:14On the other hand, grandpa questioned the hidden motives behind why his grandson was willing to take on the
00:26:19task of teaching the princess, even though he actually despised her. The young man also emphasized
00:26:25that he did not want to end up in disgrace like his father and chose to become a servant of the kingdom.
00:26:30He also pleaded with his grandfather to return his assets as compensation.
00:26:37The initial learning material provided by Hae Young was very difficult for Lee Sol because during college,
00:26:43she was known as a dull student who spent her time in class, just admiring the professor.
00:26:49She even received a zero score, to the point where Hae Young kept mocking her and threatened to report her to
00:26:54the president. Unwilling to accept Hae Young's taunts, Lee Sol tried to snatch the exam paper from the young man's
00:27:01hand and chased him into the room. The two accidentally ended up on top of each other, leaving Lee Sol flustered
00:27:08and unable to sleep all night. Due to staying up late the next morning, Lee Sol was hard to wake up
00:27:17and eventually, Hae Young had to carry her and throw her into the pool. Even though Hae Young's attitude
00:27:23seemed excessively hateful towards the princess, at certain moments the two appeared so in sync, like a
00:27:29supportive couple. He was very firm in teaching how to elegantly introduce oneself in front of the camera,
00:27:36which would later be featured on various internet channels. He also explained in detail about the
00:27:42royal family's lineage and apologized to the girl for tonishing her father's good name.
00:27:48Hae Young promised to help him find evidence and clarify the false news, circulating by looking for
00:27:54counter news that the crown prince never sold royal heirlooms. The one who sold them to the
00:28:00antique shop was not the crown prince, but Lee Sol's adoptive father. Hae Young turned to meet with the
00:28:07opposition party council that had spread the false hoax news and threatened to expose their corruption
00:28:13scandal if they dared to disturb the princess. Meanwhile, not only Hae Young is working in the palace,
00:28:20but now Yeonjo also has full control over the royal activities, including the official letters of the
00:28:25princess's family. The cunning woman invited Lee Sol's adoptive mother and brother and asked them to sign
00:28:31a family separation letter. Currently, Lee Sol has been officially released from her adoptive family
00:28:37and designated as the legitimate child of crown prince Lee Han.
00:28:40Without anyone's knowledge, Yeonjo ordered servant Hong to act as a spy reporting on Lee Sol's movements
00:28:51with her fiancé. Feeling that they had successfully secured an important position in the palace,
00:28:57Hae Young and Yeonjo took the time to drink wine together as a symbol of celebration for this victory.
00:29:04However, before they could chat, Yeonjo suddenly excused herself because she had an appointment with
00:29:09Yeung-woo. In this meeting, the professor admitted that he had been accepted to work as one of the
00:29:14official advisory staff of the division. With an emotional gaze, he decided to end his romantic
00:29:20relationship with Yeonjo because he was fed up with being treated as a backup man all this time.
00:29:26In addition to becoming an advisor, he also wanted to get closer to the princess who had admired him
00:29:31for years. Young-woo's recent statement really made Yeonjo furious and left her speechless. She
00:29:42increasingly hated Lee Sol for making Young-woo turn away. Amidst her busy schedule in the kingdom,
00:29:47Lee Sol sneaks time to meet the professor and complain about every unpleasant treatment from Hae Young to him.
00:29:54Instead of getting angry, the professor actually suggested that Lee Sol continue to utilize Hae Young's
00:29:59abilities to improve herself so that she would be worthy of being called a princess. The date for
00:30:05the press conference to officially introduce the princess to the public will be held in the next few days.
00:30:11Several renowned designers have been brought in to design clothing for the princess,
00:30:16and it turns out that the person responsible for organizing the press conference is Yeonjo,
00:30:22the chief director of the Royal Division. Before the princess chose her outfit,
00:30:28she secretly invited her for a private conversation, harboring only resentment and hatred in her heart.
00:30:34Yoonjo openly revealed that she would continue to find any way to bring down Lee Sol from her position.
00:30:42She even threatened to make the girl hated by all the people of Korea.
00:30:49Hearing this, Lee Sol suddenly turned pale and was astonished, but she tried to remain calm and strong,
00:30:55hiding her inner turmoil. Not only did Yoonjo fan the flames of hostility, but she also began to
00:31:02boldly corner Lee Sol in front of the designers, by saying she was unworthy of wearing elegant clothes,
00:31:07and was more suited to wearing simple attire, as it reflected the image of an orphan living in an orphanage.
00:31:14Hae Young did not defend the hurt Lee Sol at all, instead, she further pressured the girl,
00:31:18and emphasized that a princess should not be weak, just because of someone's taunts. Because eventually,
00:31:25she will face much stronger enemies.
00:31:31As the trusted director of the Royal Affairs, Yoonjo increasingly gained full control over the
00:31:36princess's activities, including taking her to a spa. At night, Lee Sol hid in an antique car,
00:31:44because she wanted to vent her anger at Yoonjo and Hae Young. The entire staff thought she had
00:31:49disappeared and frantically searched for her, but it was Hae Young who managed to find her.
00:31:57It turned out the girl was practicing to become a strong woman like the antagonist in a historical
00:32:02drama, so she could defeat the enemies around her. She admitted that she really hated Hae Young as her
00:32:09enemy, but her heart kept resisting, even though the two seemed like arch enemies. A moment later,
00:32:15they were caring for each other like a couple. Lee Sol even brought a glass of milk to Hae Young's room,
00:32:22so she could sleep soundly. The next day, to clear the prince's name, Lee Sol's adoptive mother and
00:32:28brother were invited to the palace to negotiate about the case of the inscription sale. That was accused of the
00:32:34prince. In fact, the real perpetrator was her adoptive father. Hae Young suggested that Lee Sol sacrifice
00:32:43her adoptive father, who had been involved in a criminal case, to restore the prince's good name.
00:32:48However, this was strongly opposed by Dan Ha. The girl was so cruel and kept intimidating her sister,
00:32:55that she would never forgive Lee Sol if the bad news about her father spread in the media.
00:32:59As a child who had been cared for over twenty years, Lee Sol felt a dilemma, choosing between
00:33:05her adoptive father or her biological father. However, Hae Young kept urging her to choose
00:33:11her biological father, because his name would be recorded in history, while her adoptive father was
00:33:16just an ordinary citizen. The girl was truly torn in making a decision, and could only burn all the
00:33:23evidence related to her adoptive father's case, who had sold all the royal relics.
00:33:27On her first day working at the palace, Lee Sol invited Young Woo to have a meal together as a
00:33:33welcoming gesture. She was very happy, because she could freely share her grievances with the professor
00:33:40who was nearby. However, at the same dining table, Hae Young and Yoon Jo were already sitting together,
00:33:46which may be atmosphere. In the middle of the meal, Young Woo openly showed his attention to Lee Sol,
00:33:54which naturally sparked Yoon Jo's jealousy.
00:33:59The closeness between the two and the princess's expressive reaction to Young Woo's praise,
00:34:04made Yoon Jo furious and she sneered at her for what she considered to be impolite behavior.
00:34:09After keeping the secret for so long about the feud between the grandfather and Hae Young's father,
00:34:14Mr. O finally revealed the real reason why the grandfather ousted his father from the heir status.
00:34:19For a long time, Hae Young's father was known to be very ambitious and would stop at nothing to
00:34:26remove the crown prince from the company's ownership. Even when the prince was hiding in a remote area as
00:34:32a laborer, his life was never peaceful, because he kept receiving death threats. Grandfather didn't want
00:34:39the prince to be harmed and ultimately chose to remove his own son. Now grandfather doesn't want that to
00:34:45happen again to Hae Young and Princess Lee Sol. Hearing the bitter story of his father made Hae Young
00:34:50truly furious and he threw everything in front of him as a form of venting. His heart was torn between
00:34:57hatred, sympathy and the love that was slowly growing for Lee Sol. He didn't want to end up like his father,
00:35:04but he also wanted to reclaim his wealth, which was now entirely in the name of the princess.
00:35:09The next morning, Hae Young secretly took Lee Sol to obey. He wanted to find someone who once knew
00:35:16the crown prince. It turns out that when they were children, Lee Sol and the prince once lived there
00:35:21while escaping from his father's pursuit. The owner of the rental house still kept old photos and recounted
00:35:28his meeting with the prince, who always seemed fearful and wanted to protect his son. As a form of his
00:35:34happiness for finding someone who knew his father. That night, Lee Sol asked Hae Young to join him for
00:35:40soju and seafood at a seaside stall. However, since he couldn't handle his drink, Lee Sol ended up heavily
00:35:51intoxicated and staggered around, forcing Hae Young to carry him. The girl kept complaining and expressed her
00:35:56hatred towards Hae Young. She was confused by the diplomat's behavior, sometimes acting like an enemy,
00:36:03yet often helping her like a vigilant bodyguard. When they reached a staircase, Lee Sol asked Hae Young
00:36:09to tie his shoelaces that had come undone. In his heavily intoxicated state, unexpectedly,
00:36:15he suddenly planted a kiss on Hae Young's cheek, making her heart. Not wanting to be outdone,
00:36:21the diplomat returned the sweet kiss on Lee Sol's lips and asked him to forget about tonight's incident.
00:36:26Lee Sol suddenly fell asleep after being kissed by Hae Young. The young man then laid him down in the
00:36:35inn and left him alone. Until the next morning, Lee Sol was approached by bodyguards, who intentionally
00:36:42came to prevent him from attending today's press conference. It turned out that all of this was
00:36:47orchestrated by Hae Young, so that Lee Sol wouldn't interfere with his clarification regarding the prince's case.
00:36:52In front of all the council members present, Hae Young apologized for the princess's absence,
00:36:58due to her unwell condition. He emphasized that he wanted to represent the princess, and also refute
00:37:05the news about the theft committed by the prince. In addition, he explained that his relationship with
00:37:12the princess was not a romantic one, but rather a relationship between a student and a teacher.
00:37:17Therefore, the act of restoring the royal family lineage was not a form of money laundering by the
00:37:24Dae Han group, but rather a government policy to preserve cultural heritage. Hae Young's statement
00:37:30just now truly left the grandfather and Yoon Jo astonished. After the event, he confessed to the
00:37:36grandfather that he had to do it because he is a loyal servant of the kingdom. However, what Hae Young
00:37:43said to Mr. Oh was different. He threatened that he would not let the princess walk away easily and
00:37:50would block her just like her father did. Whatever was on Hae Young's mind, he appeared confusing in
00:37:56the eyes of his opponent. To satisfy his curiosity, Yoon Jo pressed Hae Young about, his defense of the prince. He even
00:38:08suspected that his fiancée was starting to fall for Lee Seoul. However, Hae Young denied it and claimed that
00:38:14he did it solely to protect his assets from being seized again. Meanwhile, due to the spread of the
00:38:21clarification about the theft committed by his adoptive father, Lee Seoul was shunned by his family.
00:38:28Upon returning from the bay, before heading to the palace, he visited his mother at the inn to beg for
00:38:33forgiveness. Even though he kept shouting and crying, his mother and sister refused to show themselves
00:38:38because they were already too disappointed. When Young Woo arrived to pick him up, Lee Seoul could only
00:38:48cry and express his sadness. He never expected to lose the trust of his adoptive family just to become a
00:38:55princess. In a reassuring tone, Young Woo indeed advised him that there would be many challenging,
00:39:02and rocky paths in his life as a princess, and Lee Seoul must not be fragile. He certainly assured that
00:39:09the clarification was necessary to set the record straight about the prince's good history.
00:39:19Upon arriving at the palace, Young Woo had a confrontation with Hae Young because of the
00:39:23clarification. Lee Seoul became frustrated and was disliked by her family. Instead of feeling guilty,
00:39:29Hae Young turned the tables and attacked Young Woo, saying he shouldn't be concerned about his student,
00:39:33since Lee Seoul has now become his private pupil. Hearing that, Young Woo was not intimidated at all.
00:39:40He was determined to continue protecting the princess until the end of his days.
00:39:44To him, Lee Seoul was not just an ordinary student, but a living historical record,
00:39:49and an obsession he had pursued for 10 years.
00:39:57That night, Lee Seoul vented her anger on Hae Young because she was disappointed at being abandoned
00:40:02just like that. She was also devastated because she was shunned by her own family. However, with a cold
00:40:09and emotional gaze, Hae Young only made her even sadder. The young man mocked that Lee Seoul's sacrifice of
00:40:16losing her foster family was nothing compared to the throne she would gain. The girl cried in front of
00:40:22the room, and the diplomat just let her suffer alone. The next morning, Lee Seoul felt even more
00:40:32restricted because Yoon Jo tightened the surveillance. Now everything the princess does must go through his
00:40:39approval as the director. He argued that this surveillance was to prevent the princess from
00:40:45escaping without the knowledge of the royal staff. Unwilling to be treated like a prisoner, Lee Seoul asked
00:40:52all the staff to gather. While standing on a chair, she asserted that she would hold a press conference the
00:40:58next day. Anne announced the legality of her position as the Princess of Josian. Lee Seoul promised to
00:41:06deliver a good speech and asked for the staff's guidance. Afterward, the core staff, including
00:41:16Yoon Jo, Hae Young, and Young Woo, held a meeting with the princess to discuss the material to be presented
00:41:22at the press conference. To undermine Lee Seoul's confidence, Yoon Jo corrected her speech notes and
00:41:29laughed at her in front of everyone. However, it turned out that Hae Young and Young Woo defended her
00:41:34and forbade Yoon Jo from being too harsh in criticizing the princess, who was still a novice.
00:41:44Without anyone knowing, Lee Seoul began deleting her blog that was once registered on an entertainment
00:41:50site to avoid tarnishing her image. However, she found it difficult to delete it because the posts
00:41:56were locked after the writer received payment. In the end, Hae Young, who caught her hiding, immediately
00:42:04took action to delete the silly writings from several online tabloids. On the other hand,
00:42:10Grandpa was truly furious. After hearing about his grandson's departure with the Princess Anne,
00:42:15their stay at a bay. To prevent any unwanted incidents, Grandpa invited Hae Young, Lee Seoul,
00:42:20and Yoon Jo for a meal together, and urged Hae Young to marry Yoon Jo immediately. Hearing Grandpa's
00:42:26command left Lee Seoul very surprised. Unexpectedly, Yoon Jo firmly rejected Grandpa's request,
00:42:36even though Hae Young accepted it without any objection. The girl reasoned that she would marry Hae Young,
00:42:42not because of an order, but of her own free will. She didn't want to continue living under the shadow of
00:42:48orders. She turned to ask why Hae Young accepted Grandpa's command when he had previously doubted it
00:42:57because his assets had been seized. In the end, Hae Young admitted that he was willing to marry Yoon Jo only to
00:43:05repay the favor to Mr. Oh, who was Grandpa's right-hand man. He emphasized that now his feelings of love for
00:43:12Yoon Jo have started to waver after discovering her affair with Jung Woo. To retaliate for the affair,
00:43:19Hae Young is still willing to marry, but he must protect Lee Seoul without being restrained by his
00:43:24partner. Meanwhile, Dan Ha suddenly came to the palace and lashed out at Lee Seoul. The girl ransacked
00:43:31the entire princess's room and even intended to attack her with a bag. Fortunately, Hae Young quickly came to
00:43:39her defense and forbade her from setting foot in the palace while in an emotional state. Feeling
00:43:45responsible for the commotion, Hae Young visited the innkeeper and apologized because he was the one
00:43:50who spread the news on his own initiative. He emphasized that Lee Seoul knew nothing about it and never agreed
00:43:57to it. While Hae Young was still talking with her mother, it turned out that Lee Seoul was outside, unaware of
00:44:07the diplomat's arrival. From outside the door, she kept pleading for her mother and sister to forgive her.
00:44:14As a spoiled child, she began pouring out her worries to her mother. The girl revealed that she had fallen
00:44:21in love with her own enemy, yet strangely, she was deeply hurt when she heard the news of her enemy's
00:44:27marriage to another girl. After her heart felt relieved, she hurried back to the palace, even though she
00:44:33hadn't met her mother. However, not long after, she realized that Hae Young had heard all of her feelings.
00:44:41Feeling embarrassed, Lee Seoul eventually intercepted Hae Young's car, but she was ignored.
00:44:47She then switched to intercepting a passing truck in order to chase after him.
00:44:55The press conference for the introduction of the princess is ready to be held at the palace.
00:44:58Unlike before, today only a handful of reporters came because the others were not allowed in by
00:45:05Yeon Cho. In the middle of her interrupted speech, Hae Young suggested that the princess continue her
00:45:11speech in the parking lot. So enthusiastic to welcome the reporters held outside, Lee Seoul ran barefoot
00:45:18and gave her speech standing on a chair so everyone could hear her.
00:45:22In front of all the journalists, she emphasized that she still has a lot to learn to become a princess.
00:45:33She is not hesitant to accept criticism from the public, which can be sent via her email,
00:45:37even though she is inexperienced. She is confident that the staff behind her will support her to become
00:45:43the best. It didn't take long for the speech to successfully attract the attention of thousands of
00:45:49people who declared themselves as her supporters. Even the president was enthusiastic in giving
00:45:54appreciation and asked Hae Young to be more diligent in educating the princess to become a politician.
00:46:00Feeling guilty for having played with the princess, Hae Young took the time amidst her work to visit
00:46:06the crown prince's grave. She regretted often hurting the princess and also apologized for her father's
00:46:13actions in the past. Upon arriving at the palace, when she saw Lee Seoul in pain with her foot,
00:46:20she immediately carried her to her room. Not far from there, Yan Cho witnessed their closeness
00:46:25and realized that Hae Young had truly turned away.
00:46:32The next morning, Lee Seoul asked Yong Wu to take her to the orphanage where she lived before being adopted.
00:46:38She wanted to find her mother's bag, which could serve as historical evidence. However,
00:46:43upon arriving there, it turned out that Yan Cho had already been there first and was looking for a
00:46:48similar bag to place in the museum. After finishing his business, Yan Cho asked Yong Wu to go home first
00:46:55because he wanted to chat with the princess. In a rather tense atmosphere, the two tried to stay relaxed and
00:47:00friendly while enjoying soju. To satisfy her curiosity, Lee Seoul asked why Yan Cho was once greedy and
00:47:09wanted two men at the same time. She suggested that Yan Cho choose between the professor and Hae Young,
00:47:15so that Lee Seoul could have one of them. However, the selfish Yan Cho remained firm in her stance
00:47:22and was unwilling to let Lee Seoul take either of them. She loved Yong Wu with warmth, but she also
00:47:28needed Hae Young to achieve her ambitions. Because Lee Seoul couldn't accept it and was furious upon
00:47:34hearing this, Yan Cho boasted again that both men loved her very much and didn't mind being shared.
00:47:41She wanted to test them to prove whose love was the deepest. Yan Cho sent a message to the two men
00:47:48to pick her up at the soju bar. Eventually, both of them arrived at the same time and the woman
00:47:54immediately hugged Hae Young. This scene was truly painful and witnessed by Lee Seoul and Yong Wu.
00:48:01In Yan Cho's embrace, Hae Young asserted that he would come anytime his fiancée asked. He even held
00:48:08her fingers to assure her that his heart had never strayed. Feeling unbearable jealousy, while shedding
00:48:16tears, Lee Seoul tried to stop him from leaving. However, Hae Young ignored her and still chose Yan Cho.
00:48:24Now the girl could only cry and vent her heartbreak to Yong Wu.
00:48:32Meanwhile, Dan Ha, who was always envious of Lee Seoul, tried to find a way to bring her down
00:48:38by handing over the Queen Mother's heirloom wallet to Professor Yong Wu. She claimed the item as her own,
00:48:45even though she had stolen it from her sister. After being examined by a history expert, it turned out
00:48:52that the wallet was authentic. Even though it came from Dan Ha, Young Wu was convinced that the wallet
00:48:59rightfully belonged to Lee Seoul belonged to Lee Seoul. The next day, Lee Seoul was surprised after
00:49:08receiving many gifts and letters from her supporters. Immersed in happiness, she even replied to them one
00:49:16by one and then informed Hae Young. One of the letter senders was a presidential staff member who
00:49:23expressed love for the princess. Cut between embarrassment and disgust in admitting his jealousy,
00:49:29Hae Young immediately confiscated the letter and forbade her from fooling around. He ordered Lee Seoul to
00:49:35study more diligently about political knowledge and constitutional law. Despite his harsh approach,
00:49:41Hae Young wanted to emphasize that her current position is not that of an idol but a leader of the nation.
00:49:49The princess's popularity dominating the news topics made her a target for politicians,
00:49:54including the president and the opposition party council. Through Hae Young, the president wanted
00:49:59to invite the princess to participate in a visit to the orphanage where she was raised. By bringing in Lee Seoul,
00:50:08the president would portray himself as the savior who leads the princess into the palace.
00:50:14Hae Young gently declined by arguing that the princess was still too amateur and not ready to enter the
00:50:20political world. Upon arriving at the palace, she forbade Lee Seoul from going anywhere without her
00:50:27permission. She didn't want the girl to be used as a tool in political battles, as it would be dangerous for her
00:50:34safety. Similarly, members of the opposition party council asked Yoon Joo to persuade the princess to
00:50:42support them in the campaign. However, Yoon Joo couldn't fulfill the politician's request yet,
00:50:48because she needed to get permission from the chairman's grandfather first. Before meeting the chairman,
00:50:54Yoon Joo greeted her father, who suddenly started talking about the dark secret of the crown prince's death.
00:51:00She was truly shocked after learning that Hae Young's father had committed premeditated murder
00:51:05against the prince. Mr. Oh could no longer stand seeing Yoon Joo's actions of always opposing the princess
00:51:12and wanted to stop her. It turns out he couldn't bear the thought of Yoon Joo becoming a traitor
00:51:17and meeting the same fate as Hae Young's father. At the same time, Hae Young also heard a similar
00:51:26statement from her grandfather that her father was the one who killed the crown prince. This is what has made the
00:51:33grandfather feel guilty all this time and always want to atone for it. In the end, Hae Young began to
00:51:39understand why she was instructed to become a diplomat rather than the director of Dae Han group.
00:51:46The reason was none other than because her grandfather intended to prepare her as the right hand of the royal family.
00:51:51Even though his request was rejected by Hae Young, the president still visited the orphanage,
00:52:00with the princess, with Yoon Joo's approval. The woman agreed because she wanted to embarrass Lee
00:52:07So in front of the media and witness how naive the girl was, unaware that she was merely being used as a
00:52:13political tool. In fact, Lee Sool was truly confused and kept questioning why Hae Young and Yeon Joo were
00:52:21not aligned in this visit plan. In the end, she took the initiative to invite the orphanage children to
00:52:31visit the palace. Once the orphanage children and the president's entourage had gathered, Lee Sool did not
00:52:38expect at all that the president had actually invited many journalists to interview her about her past
00:52:44life in the orphanage. Without thorough preparation, she was truly made nervous by it, until Hae Young
00:52:51immediately moved to stop the interview to protect her. In front of all the journalists, Hae Young emphasized
00:52:59that the royal family is not affiliated with any political party.
00:53:02He then dragged the girl away and scolded her thoroughly. So emotional was he that he even
00:53:12called the girl truly stupid and unaware that she had just been used by the president for image building.
00:53:20Unable to say anything, after realizing her mistake, Lee Sool could only cry and lock herself in her room.
00:53:26In truth, Hae Young felt regret for often hurting Lee Sool's feelings with his harsh words.
00:53:33He finally hurried to her room and asked her to stop aspiring to be a princess.
00:53:39He hated having to face Lee Sool as an enemy because he wanted to make her his girlfriend.
00:53:46With all her resolve, even though it was difficult for her, Lee Sool asserted that she couldn't return
00:53:51Hae Young's feelings and would remain a princess no matter what. She couldn't possibly return the feelings
00:53:57of a man who lost his inheritance because of her presence.
00:54:04Hearing that, Hae Young felt relieved because he believed he had successfully taught the princess
00:54:09to be a firm woman who wouldn't easily be swayed by a man. The next morning, news about Hae Young's
00:54:15rejection of the president's visit to the palace had spread widely across all media. The president was
00:54:22truly furious and considered Hae Young a traitor for thwarting his plan to use the princess as a
00:54:28political tool. He punished Hae Young by dismissing him from his position at the palace. Not only that,
00:54:35the president also emphasized that if Hae Young continued to protect the princess, he would not
00:54:40only be dismissed from his job as a diplomat, but the president also threatened to organize massive
00:54:45demonstrations to overthrow the princess. Feeling worried about the president's threat, Hae Young
00:54:52decided to take a leave of absence for a while and promised to quit his job as the princess's tutor.
00:54:59He intended to go to New York to find his father, who was stranded there, because he had been banned from
00:55:05entering Korea. Before leaving, Hae Young deliberately did not say goodbye to Lee Seol, because he did not
00:55:13want to make her sad or feel guilty. He just wanted to invite her to have a meal together and go for a walk
00:55:20for just one day. Feeling nervous after rejecting his love, Lee Seol kept trying to avoid him.
00:55:30The princess even chose to go to the mall where her friend worked,
00:55:33and hid inside a suitcase so Hae Young wouldn't find her. No matter how hard she tried to hide,
00:55:40Hae Young managed to find her after buying the suitcase where the princess was hiding. The two of them
00:55:47then took a walk in the ancient Joseon palace where they first met. All the visitors who saw the princess
00:55:55immediately scrambled to take a photo with her. Not wanting to miss the opportunity, Hae Young also
00:56:01wanted to take a photo as a keepsake. That night, Hae Young submitted his resignation letter in the
00:56:10princess's room. He also invited his adoptive mother to come to the palace to comfort him. After Hae Young
00:56:18officially resigned, the princess now has a new teacher who comes from a diplomatic background. Meanwhile,
00:56:25Yeon Joo, who continues to try to eliminate Lee Seol, then invites Lee Dan to collaborate in overthrowing
00:56:31the princess from her throne. With evidence of the authenticity of the queen of Joseon's heirloom purse,
00:56:37which he claimed as his own, Lee Dan, who was always envious of his adoptive sister,
00:56:42intended to displace Lee Seol and declare himself as the princess in front of everyone. Lee Dan's arrival
00:56:48at the palace immediately shocked the entire family, causing Hae Young to be forced to halt her
00:56:52departure to America. Following Yeon Joo's orders, Lee Dan recounted his life story, which was exactly
00:56:59like what Lee Seol experienced. He even pretended, as if he were the daughter of the crown prince who
00:57:05was always fleeing from enemies. Even the grandfather was left astonished after Lee Dan mentioned that
00:57:11Hae Young's father was closely connected to the crown prince's departure.
00:57:15The account from her foster sister truly shocked Lee Seol to the core, because in her childhood,
00:57:26she experienced amnesia and doesn't remember anything about Hae Young's father.
00:57:31After successfully causing a stir in the palace, Yeon Joo continued to spread the news across all media
00:57:37regarding Princess Lee Seol's status, which has yet to be fully recognized. Because for her,
00:57:43Lee Dan is more deserving and convincing to be called princess. Yeon Joo is determined to do whatever
00:57:49it takes, as long as she can get rid of Lee Seol. Lee Dan's statement in front of everyone made the
00:57:54grandfather truly furious. Now the grandfather accuses Hae Young of being the mastermind who instructed
00:58:00her to falsely claim to be the princess. In order to eliminate Lee Seol, without denying it,
00:58:06Hae Young admits that she indeed wants to get rid of Lee Seol.
00:58:09On the other hand, after hearing that Hae Young's father is connected to her own father,
00:58:18Lee Seol wants to confirm the truth with Yeon Chu. In the end, Yeon Chu explains everything,
00:58:24revealing that Hae Young's father is the cause of the crown prince's death. She emphasizes that her son
00:58:30is not much different and will find a way to eliminate the princess. Before it's too late,
00:58:35Yeon Chu advises her to step down from the throne and go abroad. Upon learning this fact,
00:58:42Lee Seol is truly shocked and now looks at Hae Young with a different gaze.
00:58:48Lee Seol is caught in a dilemma between love and doubt in her heart about what happened to her father
00:58:53in the past. She can't easily believe that Hae Young, who has always supported her, would act like her
00:59:01father because of a power struggle. Being a princess is not an easy matter for her.
00:59:08Before one problem is resolved, another problem comes in succession. After Lee Dan found the
00:59:14queen's heirloom wallet, the public became disappointed with Lee Seol and spread hateful remarks,
00:59:20accusing her of being a fraud pretending to be a princess. Various derogatory comments have flooded the
00:59:26media, prompting Hae Young to suggest that she publish her childhood photos from when the prince was
00:59:33still alive. However, it turns out that Lee Seol has not agreed to it yet. She is worried that her
00:59:40adoptive brother will be imprisoned. Even when cornered, Lee Seol still wants to protect her brother,
00:59:45who has been cruel to her.
00:59:47The only option for her is to keep her promise to Yeon Chu and be willing to leave the palace. However,
00:59:59she doesn't want to leave forever, but only temporarily to seek the truth about her father's death,
01:00:05which is also related to Hae Young's father. After packing all her belongings, Lee Seol threatened
01:00:12Yeon Chu that she would definitely return and prove the truth. She is convinced that Yeon Chu deliberately
01:00:19sowed discord between her and Hae Young because he doesn't like the diplomat continually siding with her.
01:00:25While pulling her suitcase, the princess began to move to gather information about anyone who had known
01:00:31her father, including a homeowner by the beach, where her father used to work as a fisherman.
01:00:37From the homeowner's account, she recalled that the crown prince decided to move away from the fishing
01:00:47village because there was a wealthy man who constantly threatened him. Unfortunately,
01:00:54the homeowner did not know the exact identity of the man who was pursuing the crown prince. Not wanting
01:01:00to give up, Lee Seol turned to the police station and inquired about anyone who knew her father
01:01:06before he was declared dead in the accident. However, at that time, the results were nil because the
01:01:13police could not provide clear information about the perpetrator who hit the crown prince. Moreover,
01:01:19there were influential people who cleared his name. Afterward, Lee Seol continued to contact the
01:01:24Dae Han Group Information Center operator to request the phone numbers of people who knew her father.
01:01:30Even though she contacted all the related numbers, it turned out that none of them could give her a
01:01:35definite answer regarding the relationship between her father and Haeyang's father. Not much different,
01:01:41Haeyang also tried to find her father's whereabouts by repeatedly calling his phone contacts.
01:01:48Unfortunately, her father never answered those calls. Caught between disappointment, emotions,
01:01:56and anger, Haeyang couldn't accept the reality that her father was a murderer.
01:02:00She wanted to ask for clarification directly so that the hostility wouldn't repeat between her and Lee
01:02:07Seol. Upon hearing the news that Lee Seol had fled the palace, Haeyang tried to find her in several
01:02:16places, including her foster mother's inn and her friend's office. However, the princess was not there.
01:02:23She then turned to meet Lee Dan and persuaded him to admit his mistakes.
01:02:26She emphasized that Lee Seol was willing to give in and leave the palace for her sake.
01:02:32However, Lee Dan completely ignored Haeyang and trusted Yeonju more, who promised to send him abroad,
01:02:38if the situation became more critical. Growing more anxious, Haeyang was forced to invite Yeonju to
01:02:44her home to inquire about the princess's whereabouts. With a feeling of anger, Yeonju admitted that she
01:02:50deliberately drove her out of the palace so as not to disturb her peaceful life with Haeyang.
01:02:59In the end, Haeyang moved to find Lee Seol at a cafe. It turned out that the princess was trying
01:03:04to escape from the cafe patrons who caught her napping. In her panic, Lee Seol even bumped into a
01:03:11patron and accidentally spilled coffee, resulting in her being insulted. To protect Lee Seol from the crowd
01:03:17of patrons, after paying for the spilled coffee, Haeyang then dragged her away and took her to Professor
01:03:23Yeonju's house, because that was the only place safe from Yeonju's pursuit.
01:03:31It turned out, Haeyang's assumption was completely wrong. Even though they were at the professor's house,
01:03:37Yeonju still tried to chase Lee Seol, claiming she wanted to take her to meet the chairman's grandfather.
01:03:42Yeonju wanted Lee Seol to confess in front of the grandfather that she intentionally ran away from
01:03:48the palace and would never return there again. Before Lee Seol could agree to Yeonju's request,
01:03:54Haeyang suddenly intervened and insisted that she would never allow the princess to go with Yeonju.
01:04:02She suddenly pulled her away and took her to a villa quite far from Seoul. Unexpectedly,
01:04:07it turned out that Haeyang brought Lee Seol to visit the residence of Mr. Park Taejun, who is none other
01:04:12than her father. Haeyang apparently brought her to that place on purpose to find some clarity about
01:04:18her father's whereabouts. The villa they visited turned out to hold many memories for Lee Seol.
01:04:25Vaguely, the princess remembered, Haeyang's father coming out the door and welcoming her.
01:04:31Upon arriving at the villa, the two appeared very affectionate as a couple deeply in love.
01:04:35The two embraced each other facing the bonfire at night when the weather was so cold, until the next
01:04:42morning. Haeyang styled Lee Seol's messy hair with a strawberry hair tie, the last gift from her father.
01:04:49However, all their happiness suddenly faded after Lee Seol received a call from Mr. Park Taejun,
01:04:55who begged her to persuade her grandfather to allow him to return to Korea. Hearing Haeyang's father's
01:05:02voice, Lee Seol was truly shocked and immediately asked for clarification regarding her father's death.
01:05:11Firmly, Mr. Taejun denied it, but he admitted to regretting his actions. That always made the crown
01:05:17prince run away. Slowly, memories of her childhood began to resurface. She clearly remembered when Haeyang's
01:05:26father asked her to stay at the villa after her father was declared dead. She was truly disappointed
01:05:32and decided to leave Haeyang alone and complained to her grandfather. As soon as the princess arrived at
01:05:37the president director's residence, her grandfather immediately apologized profusely for the unavoidable
01:05:43death of the crown prince. He admitted that the cause of all this chaos was the struggle for the throne
01:05:49and the grandfather's injustice towards his son. Because she doesn't want the same thing to happen, Lee Seol
01:06:00insists that she doesn't want to be a princess and would rather live peacefully with her simple adoptive
01:06:05mother. If her grandfather insists on making her a princess, it will eventually have fatal consequences
01:06:12for her and Haeyang. Hearing the princess's statement, the grandfather was truly shocked and didn't expect
01:06:18it, to the point where he fainted in, was rushed to the hospital. Although he went through a critical
01:06:23period, the grandfather eventually regained consciousness and kept pleading for Yun Chu and her father
01:06:29to bring the princess back to the palace immediately. Upon learning that the grandfather had regained
01:06:35consciousness and was still looking for her, Lee Seol remained steadfast in her decision to return to her mother.
01:06:42On one hand, Haeyang felt truly pressured after Lee Seol discovered the truth of the secret.
01:06:50She also felt guilty for being the reason the crown prince ran away. Before Lee Seol left, Haeyang
01:06:56tried to convince her that he was different from his father and would always support Lee Seol,
01:07:01not wanting to destroy her. However, Lee Seol ignored him and wanted to return to her adoptive mother.
01:07:06Meanwhile, Younggu unexpectedly revealed astonishing news to Yun Chu that the historical wallet brought
01:07:13by Lee Dan was actually a fate created by his adoptive father. To her utter surprise, the professor
01:07:20deliberately deceived Yun Chu and Lee Dan because he wanted his former lover to stop bothering the princess
01:07:25and step down from his position as the executive director of the palace foundation.
01:07:29Before Lee Dan was arrested by the police, Yun Chu gave him a sum of hush money and provided him
01:07:40with a ticket to travel abroad to escape. He also prepared a scholarship for him as long as he remained
01:07:47silent in front of the investigators. However, before he could escape, Haeyang managed to stop Lee Dan and
01:07:53freeze his accounts. Considering his crime, deemed fatal for forging historical artifacts and impersonating
01:08:01the princess, Lee Dan is now declared a national fugitive and is banned from flying to any airport.
01:08:08Currently, the princess's adoptive brother is completely powerless in front of Haeyang.
01:08:14Upon arriving at the inn, Lee Seol went about her usual activities. She cleaned the house, prepared food
01:08:20for her mother, and fed the two guard dogs in front of the inn. Every time she saw the room that Haeyang
01:08:25once occupied, she felt an overwhelming sense of longing. However, she tried to deny her feelings
01:08:30because of the hatred in her heart. Not much different, Haeyang also felt tormented because Lee
01:08:36Seol had come to hate her. She went to the inn just to relieve her longing. However, Lee Seol, who was fed up,
01:08:44didn't welcome her at all and immediately went inside the house and locked the door. She completely ignored
01:08:48Haeyang, who kept knocking on the door to apologize. Afternoon until night, Haeyang shivered outside while
01:09:00waiting for the daughter to open the door. Half desperate, Haeyang, exhausted from waiting,
01:09:06finally cried and shouted outside until Lee Seol heard her. She kept apologizing for her father's mistakes
01:09:13and promised to atone for all her past sins. She was willing to become a slave forever as long as
01:09:19Lee Seol would forgive her. The diplomat, who had already fallen in love, now felt unable to bear losing
01:09:25Lee Seol. It didn't matter if he had to lose his entire inheritance, even his life, as long as the
01:09:32princess was willing to return. Honestly, Lee Seol was touched by Haeyang's plea, but she couldn't bring
01:09:38herself to show up. Before truly leaving, Haeyang shouted and expressed her feelings that she loved
01:09:45Lee Seol very much. Hearing that expression of feelings, Lee Seol suddenly opened the door for her
01:09:52and Haeyang landed a kiss on the princess's lips. After embracing and kissing each other tenderly,
01:10:01Haeyang insisted on staying at the inn. Despite Lee Seol's continuous objections, her body felt almost frozen
01:10:07from being outside all day. She wanted the princess to apply a cold compress to her forehead,
01:10:13but Lee Seol, acting coldly, continued to ignore her request.
01:10:20The next day, while they were having breakfast, Haeyang deliberately didn't eat a single bite,
01:10:25hoping to get sick, so that Lee Seol would touch and take care of her. Honestly, deep down,
01:10:32she was tormented by the hateful stares and promised to do anything as long as the princess would return
01:10:37to her cheerful self, as before. That night, unexpectedly, Haeyang invited Lee Seol's friends,
01:10:45along with the loyal palace servants, to visit the inn.
01:10:48Everything was done so that the princess wouldn't feel lonely. The cheerfulness truly felt real when
01:11:00Lostman was visited by many people, and the princess appeared to smile joyfully, momentarily forgetting
01:11:06her suffering. Even laughter and jokes sounded crisp when the palace chef opened Haeyang's phone,
01:11:13which turned out to contain funny videos about the princess. While Haeyang and Lee Seol were happy,
01:11:23it was a different story for Yeonju, who was in mourning. Because she was considered to have
01:11:28made a fatal mistake, and forged the queen's heirloom wallet, Yonghua invited all board members,
01:11:35and high-ranking officials to discuss and dismiss her from her position as executive director.
01:11:39Now Yeonju is not allowed to interfere in any matters related to the kingdom and the Daehan group.
01:11:48Everything she did was not without reason. She wanted to stop Yeonju's heinous actions against the
01:11:53princess, which were getting out of hand. The next morning, to atone for her family's past mistakes,
01:12:03Haeyang invited journalists to hold a press conference. For her, this was the only way for
01:12:09Lee Seol to slightly diminish her hatred towards the Daehan group family. Her statement in front of the
01:12:15public was truly shocking. Haeyang was the only generation of Daehan who dared to admit that her
01:12:22family had made many mistakes against the royal family for personal gain. She revealed a big secret that no
01:12:29one knew that grandpa-priester had built the Daehan group company with the wealth belonging to Emperor
01:12:35Lee Yeon. In fact, that wealth should have belonged to his defendants. In front of the public, she admitted
01:12:44that her father was once someone who strongly opposed the efforts to restore the lineage, because he didn't
01:12:49want his inheritance to be taken away. However, now she is so wise as she apologizes for her family's sins,
01:12:57and hands everything over to the princess. She also asks the public to always protect the princess.
01:13:05Hearing Haeyang's statement in the media, Grandpa, who was lying in the hospital,
01:13:09felt truly proud of his granddaughter's bravery. All this time, Grandpa lived in the shadow of guilt
01:13:16towards the crown prince, and now it is his granddaughter who is able to atone for it.
01:13:20Haeyang's strong demeanor made Grandpa feel relieved to the point where he felt he could now leave the
01:13:28world in peace. Before taking his last breath, Grandpa asked Haeyang to dedicate herself to the princess
01:13:35until the end of her life. Grandpa's passing left a deep sorrow for Haeyang and the entire family,
01:13:42including Yun Chu, who vented all the blame for what happened on the princess.
01:13:48She kept blaming Li Sol because her presence was considered a disaster.
01:13:53She berated Li Sol harshly, saying that if Li Sol weren't there, Grandpa and Haeyang's lives
01:13:59would have been peaceful. Caught between anger, hatred, and sadness, Li Sol also felt guilty because
01:14:06she was burdened. Whether true or not, her presence indeed brought many changes to the Daehan group
01:14:12family. After Grandpa's funeral ceremony, Li Sol stayed at home in contemplation filled with emptiness.
01:14:23She eventually returned to the palace at the request of Haeyang and all the people of Korea.
01:14:27This time, she was determined to return not as an oppressed princess, but as a strong princess with
01:14:33full authority. The first thing she did was fire Yan Ju from his position as museum director.
01:14:41She also expelled him from the Daehan group. To this day, he no longer has anything to be proud of.
01:14:47The two men who were always by his side have now switched to supporting the princess.
01:14:56Be with Li Sol's decision, Yan Ju approached the opposition party council and sought ways to bring
01:15:01Haeyang's father back to Korea to fight against the kingdom. To anticipate this, Haeyang decided to
01:15:08fly to New York to meet her father. Before leaving, she bid farewell to Li Sol and gifted her a potted plant.
01:15:16During the months, without Haeyang's presence, Li Sol became truly bored with her new private tutor.
01:15:22She always looked for the tutor's mistakes to make them uncomfortable, because she preferred studying on her own.
01:15:27As the nights passed, Li Sol felt lonely in the palace without her beloved. After reading a book,
01:15:39she recalled the beautiful memories with Haeyang by the fountain and hoped her lover would suddenly
01:15:44come and carry her light back then. Unexpectedly, when the clumsy Li Sol almost slipped, she suddenly
01:15:52fell right into Haeyang's arms. The princess and the diplomat truly expressed their pent-up longing
01:16:03after months apart. Honestly, Li Sol felt upset for being left without any news, but she finally
01:16:10breathed a sigh of relief, seeing her lover return happily, lending kisses on her cheek, multiple times.
01:16:16His goal in going to America has now been achieved. He wanted to meet his father and ask him to
01:16:23relinquish his inheritance to the royal family. After meeting Li Sol, Haeyang met with the royal family's
01:16:30personal lawyer and immediately handed over the inheritance transfer documents signed by his father.
01:16:35Haeyang then went to see Yeonju and asked his former fiancé to truly forget about him. He no longer
01:16:46wanted to be involved in any relationship with that girl, after learning about all the wrongdoings she
01:16:51had committed all this time. Currently, Yeonju is no longer a high-ranking director, but just an ordinary
01:16:57resort employee, starting her career from the bottom. Meanwhile, Yeonju's father wanted to arrange a
01:17:04marriage for his daughter with an analyst, but the man ended up mocking Yeonju for her declining career,
01:17:09which no longer shown as it once did. Yeonju has wreathed what she sewed. However, even though her
01:17:15career isn't as bright as it used to be, Yongwu still chose her and declared his love, saying he wanted
01:17:21to start their relationship anew. Yeonju had no other choice but to welcome his feelings. Meanwhile,
01:17:28Haeyang, who has now officially become the main heir of Daehan, was not yet willing to sign the
01:17:34inheritance transfer agreement to the royal family. His puzzling attitude left Lee Seoul and Yongwu
01:17:40bewildered. They thought Haeyang was like his father. However, it turned out that Haeyang deliberately
01:17:47hadn't signed the inheritance transfer because he wanted to use his wealth as a tool to garner
01:17:52support from politicians, so they would side with Lee Seoul in the approval poll for the restoration of
01:17:58the Joseon monarchy. All this time, the president was able to serve as the number one person in Korea,
01:18:05thanks to campaign funds from his grandfather, and now the opposition party council is approaching
01:18:10Haeyang to secure funding for their campaign. However, Haeyang refused because the opposition
01:18:15council always opposed the monarchy. Meanwhile, Lee Seoul, who feels anxious because Haeyang has not yet
01:18:22intended to give her the inheritance, instead caused this trouble to make him jealous. The princess claimed
01:18:29she was going to meet a conglomerate man who proposed to her, which made Haeyang furious and he kept
01:18:34scolding her when she was about to study. In the end, Haeyang explained his plan to the princess that he
01:18:42hadn't signed the inheritance transfer, just to gain support from the politicians. With an adorable face,
01:18:50he kept kissing Lee Seoul repeatedly and asked her to reject proposals from any man.
01:18:56In order to learn the ins and outs of the Daehan company that would be her right, Lee Seoul pleaded
01:19:01with Yan Ju's father, Mr. Oh, to serve as the chief director of the Royal Foundation. Because all this
01:19:08time, she has dedicated her life to helping her grandfather. Mr. Oh is the only person who can be
01:19:14trusted, even though his daughter is always hostile towards him. Two days before the general election,
01:19:20Haeyang has transferred the entire Daehan family inheritance to the princess, which will later
01:19:25be managed by a foundation and the profits will be donated to the people. Before the election begins,
01:19:32he wants to take the princess on a date wearing simple clothes and without any security detail.
01:19:38He wants to enjoy street food and stroll through the city streets. Inheritance handover was apparently
01:19:44used by problematic journalists to bring down Haeyang and Lee Seoul. The journalist spread the news that
01:19:51Haeyang's purpose in handing over the inheritance was a form of money laundering and tax evasion. He also
01:19:57revealed a number of pieces of evidence that showed that Haeyang deliberately had a romantic relationship
01:20:02with princess so the inheritance would remain in his hands. The journalist wanted to convince the public that the
01:20:08conglomerate's son and the princess only wanted to secure their wealth without any intention of contributing
01:20:14to the people. To resolve the complications ahead of the election, the princess called a group of
01:20:20reporters and clarified that she and Haeyang truly loved each other and had absolutely no intention of
01:20:27manipulating the inheritance for their own benefit. With this honesty, she hoped that the public would decide
01:20:33whether the restoration of the royal bloodline would gain support or not. The long awaited day finally
01:20:40arrived. During the vote counting, Haeyang escorted the princess to her room to avoid stress from the
01:20:46vote count. Time rolled on two years later, the princess returned to her campus by bicycle, followed by her
01:20:54bodyguards. Apparently, a lot had happened over the course of those two years. Upon returning to campus,
01:21:02Lee Seoul remains a student whose grades don't improve. She resumed her archaeology studies under the
01:21:09guidance of Professor Yeonju. Due to personal sentiments, Yeonju often made Lee Seoul emotional while she was on
01:21:16campus. She even gave her an F for frequent absences and made her distribute exam papers to other students.
01:21:25He was apparently on a national assignment who's serving as a diplomatic representative stationed in London.
01:21:35He didn't send any word at all to the princess until leaving his lover overwhelmed with longing.
01:21:41On her 27th birthday, the princess kept hoping for a call and a gift from her boyfriend, but what she longed
01:21:48for never came. Because of her popularity, Lee Seoul received various marriage proposals from foreign
01:21:54nobles from Thailand and Japan. However, Lee Seoul doesn't want to reply at all because she misses Haeyang
01:22:03so much. Now, she is busy filming various commercials for the Department of Culture and Tourism.
01:22:15She has successfully introduced Joseon's cuisine and culture to people all around the world. In the
01:22:21midst of his busyness, Lee Seoul still has to learn how to drive and still having trouble driving, so she has
01:22:29yet to pass and get her driver's license. In the middle of practice, suddenly Haeyang came and stopped
01:22:35her who surprised and touched. She immediately expressed her very deep longing by warmly hugging
01:22:41her boyfriend through the car window. After being apart for two truly long years, Haeyang wanted to
01:22:48propose to Lee Seoul right away, but his wedding plans didn't receive the president's blessing. Citing official
01:22:55duties, the president asked him to serve as one of the UN secretaries in Washington. To be honest,
01:23:03he found it hard to leave Korea since he had just reunited with his girlfriend. In the end, heavy
01:23:09heart, he decided not to give the diamond ring to Lee Seoul. While in South Korea, he was occupied with
01:23:17numerous and significant agendas to the point of having to, for a while, set aside his promise to the
01:23:24princess. Unable to tolerate Haeyang's attitude of prioritizing work over her, Lee Seoul eventually
01:23:31went to the council member's office and threatened to break up if Haeyang didn't promptly provide
01:23:36certainty about when he would marry her. She even pretended to cry day and forbade Haeyang from entering
01:23:43her room. Finally, Haeyang successfully persuaded her and promised to find Emperor Lee Yun's documents
01:23:50stored in the London Museum as long as the princess didn't end their relationship. How incredibly
01:23:57happy Lee Seoul was when she heard that Haeyang had promised to return her grandfather's very valuable
01:24:03manuscript. However, it turned out that the London Museum required a meeting with Professor Yanju before
01:24:10handing over the manuscript. What can be done? Finally, Lee Seoul asked for help from Yanju,
01:24:17the archaeologist, to retrieve the historical artifact. Although the two were once at odds with each
01:24:24other, they have now both moved on and opened their hearts to their respective partners. On the other
01:24:30hand, surprising news comes from Danha, the adopted older sister of the princess who has been living a
01:24:38wandering life without clarity because she fears imprisonment. Directly, Lee Seoul visited her extremely
01:24:45cramped living space and scolded her thoroughly for her past crimes. The two ended up in a heated
01:24:52argument, pulling each other's hair like children fighting over a toy. With the generosity of the
01:24:58princess, Danha has been released from fugitive status and allowed to take the civil service selection
01:25:04test. She hopes her older sister can get a promising and successful career and return to their mother's home.
01:25:19Now, she has opened the palace to both domestic and international visitors, allowing them to learn
01:25:25more about the royal family's lineage. As thanks to his achievements, Lee Seoul asked Haeyoung for a gift
01:25:31to give her certainty about when he would propose. However, it turns out that Haeyoung appears quite upset
01:25:38because he cannot marry the princess in the near future due to the reason that he has to go on a
01:25:43business trip to Washington for several years. Hearing that, Lee Seoul was truly disappointed
01:25:50and accused Haeyoung of having a lover abroad. Firmly, Haeyoung denies the accusation and claimed that the
01:25:57diamond ring was only for Lee Seoul. Haeyoung revealed that he wants to marry Lee Seoul before leaving for
01:26:04Washington and invited her to live together there. However, Lee Seoul refused to go because she still had a
01:26:11lot of work to finish in Korea. The next day, Haeyoung was filled with doubt as he prepared to leave
01:26:18alone at the airport. Honestly, he hoped Lee Seoul would see him off. And unexpectedly, while sitting on
01:26:28the plane, it turned out that Lee Seoul was right next to him and revealed that she would go anywhere to
01:26:34accompany Haeyoung. A kiss landed tenderly on her lips and Lee Seoul responded with a more
01:26:41passionate kiss.
