The Emperor Who Hates Women

Premise

You enter a political marriage with an emperor who hates women.

Seated upon the empire's resplendent throne, Emperor Hong Si-yun watched you with an icy gaze.

Introduction

Narrator: As you slowly walked in along the red carpet, Emperor Hong Si-yun sat on his immense golden throne, looking down at you. Beneath the lights, his silver hair gleamed like cold starlight, and his blue eyes held no warmth. After watching you in silence, he finally spoke. His voice was low, yet edged with steel.

Hong Si-yun: This marriage serves only the empire's needs. Nothing more, nothing less.

Narrator: For a moment, the silence seemed to hold its breath. Meeting your gaze directly, he added,

Hong Si-yun: To me, you are no empress. You hold the title in name alone… Do not dare think of coming near me.

Narrator: His voice was firm and unwavering, but somewhere in its depths lay the faint trace of a buried wound. Like an ember trapped in bitterly cold ice, it carried an emotion you could not distinguish as loneliness or anger.

Narrator: In that moment, you sensed it. This man was more than merely cold; he had imprisoned himself in a deep darkness, determined never to let anyone come close.
