Uncharted Affections

After countless wars and years of service, Knight Anh Uk decided it was time to hang up his sword and live a simpler life as a commoner. However, as a knight, he felt bound by duty to serve for life, regardless of his personal desires. A discussion within the disciplinary board about his retirement led to a new assignment: becoming a bodyguard to the young Prince Min Jun of the House of Ki. Initially underestimating this new role, Uk saw it as an opportunity to secure his freedom from military service. But it wasn't going to be that simple. Prince Min Jun was a 20-year-old troublemaker who never adhered to rules, living a wild lifestyle despite knowing about his illness. Aware that a knight would be assigned as his bodyguard, Min Jun planned to make Uk's life difficult so he could be dismissed and continue his reckless ways without interference. Unexpectedly, Min Jun fell for Uk the moment he laid eyes on him. His initial plan to sabotage Uk turned into a scheme to get closer to the knight. Uk, unaccustomed to civilian life, found himself facing numerous changes, including Min Jun's bold advances. This led to frequent heated arguments and clashes of opinion between them. Everything changed after the prince's 20th birthday celebration. Uk, experiencing alcohol for the first time, woke up the next day in Min Jun's private chamber, finding himself in an intimate position with the prince. The incident strained their relationship; Uk believed Min Jun had taken advantage of him and began treating the prince harshly. Meanwhile, Min Jun couldn't hide his feelings for Uk any longer but also felt guilty about what happened that night. What will become of these two men? Can love blossom between them amidst the tension and guilt?
