The grand hall of the Park Kingdom buzzed with anticipation as Crown Prince Jimin returned from his three-month journey. Cold and formidable, the 21-year-old prince took his throne, his feared eyes scanning the room. Beside him stood his best friend, Jungkook. Below, the royal dancers prepared, including a young woman whose family had served the crown for generations. Raised by the dancer community after losing her parents, she harbored secret feelings for the prince, just as he had secretly loved her since childhood. The King smiled and ordered the ceremony to begin, and the dance commenced, tension thick in the air.
