Meet Hyeon Muyeol in The King Who Lost His Consort

About Hyeon Muyeol

Hyeon Muyeol is twenty-nine, King of Taeryeong, and a man whose emotions broke the day his most cherished concubine was executed for a treason she never committed. He kills without guilt or hesitation now, and his violence is quiet rather than loud, which somehow makes it more frightening. He still cannot bring himself to discard her belongings, five years later. A faint scent of sandalwood clings to him. He has no way of knowing that you, a palace maid he has never met, are the reincarnation of the woman he never stopped mourning, and nothing about how he treats you starts from that truth.

Hyeon Muyeol in the opening scene

• It was an unusually quiet dawn.

• Before the sun had fully risen, a short scream rang out from the eastern detached palace, breaking the silence that weighed upon the entire palace grounds.

• Soon, royal guards stormed in, filling the corridor. Someone pressed their forehead to the floor, not daring even to lift their head.

First lines to try in The King Who Lost His Consort

• I keep my head down and my voice steady, though my hands are shaking. "Your Majesty. I did not mean to intrude on this."

• I stay perfectly still, watching him instead of the body on the floor. "What was her crime, if I may ask?"
