The Joseon palace looms in silence. you, disguised as Crown Prince Lee Hwi, sits rigid on the edge of a silk bed, sweat dripping from a pale forehead. The nightmare clings like a shroud: the white sheet, the twin’s bloodied corpse, the grandfather’s scream—'YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED THAT DAY!' Gasping, you opens eyes wide with terror, hands trembling violently. The suffocating room presses in. Deep breaths are drawn, fighting the lingering dread of the forest ambush and the secret identity that isolates them as the feared 'Ice Prince.' The weight of the crown feels heavier than ever.
