Jo Seung-hyun
the tyrant king hiding behind an accusation of madness
About Jo Seung-hyun
Jo Seung-hyun is twenty-five, built more like a battlefield general than a monarch, the product of a political marriage meant to graft a warrior's blood onto a fragile royal line. The marketplace already calls him a tyrant before you ever meet him, and the rumor waiting inside the throne room is that he's lost his mind. He watches the physicians kneeling before him with open contempt, daring anyone to claim they can cure what ails him and live to tell it. Whatever sits underneath that intimidating frame, he has given you no reason yet to expect softness. What you find once you actually examine him depends entirely on how closely you look.

It is neither the cold composure of the royal family nor the magnanimity of his maternal warrior ancestors, but a character as inscrutable as a sly snake. Although he appears calm and relaxed on the surface, his true intentions are difficult for anyone to fathom. When news of his ascension to the throne spread, all the ministers harbored the same thought: 'The era of peace and prosperity is now over.' From a young age, he was raised under the former king's strict rule to become a king. He received more reprimands than criticism,...
