A Midsummer Night's Dream (free serial)
03: The Missing Prince
여주하
Ryeohong!!
홍지수
I was wondering who it was, it was Ryeohong, the only daughter of a married couple.
최승철
Ah, I remember, when I was young, I used to come to the palace often to play.
최한솔
Maybe Joo Ha-nuna was your childhood friend?
장려홍
It's nice to see you all after a long time...
장려홍
I heard in passing that Juha is going to Ming.
장려홍
Really...is this true?
여주하
Maybe... I don't think so for now
여주하
Don't stand there, come in!
장려홍
I'm sorry, but I have somewhere to go, so I'll have to take my leave now.
여주하
Yeah... It's a shame. It's been a while since I've seen you.
장려홍
See you next time, Princess Mama
(After Ryeohong left)
여주하
I'm sad because it seems like Ryeohong is distancing herself from me after her coming-of-age ceremony.
여주하
I wish you would treat me comfortably like before...
최승철
But you are the princess of this country, and as a princess, no matter how noble you are, it is not right to play comfortably with a girl of a lower class than you.
여주하
I guess so..
여주비
Yeojuha?
여주비
What are you doing here with your brothers?
여주하
We were chatting
여주비
Oh, right, I thought you were going to go with your name?
권순영
Why are you assuming that Joo-ha is going? (Cold)
여주비
(shudder)
여주비
J, Joo-ha, what makes him better than me that I won't send him to the palace..? Huh!
필요한역할
Royal notice!! An urgent notice has come down from the royal family!!
최한솔
Why is it so noisy outside?
김민규
It looks like an emergency notice has been issued.
이찬
no way..
여주비
Huh! Haha, are you finally going to spread the news that Yeojuha is going to Ming?
필요한역할
Prince Lee Ji-hoon, the seventh prince of the royal family, has gone missing!! It is said that he was last seen wearing a pink silk vest!!
필요한역할
It is said that His Majesty will give a government position to anyone who comes to see Prince Ji-Hoon!!
여주비
What..? Oh, my brother is really.. (thud)
최승철
Jihoon is missing..?
이찬
I saw it in the morning...
여주하
Suddenly missing..?
Among the princes who hate me, Lee Ji-hoon is probably the one who hates me the most.
It was common for them to glance at me whenever I passed by, and they would often make trouble for me by pouring water on my schoolwork.
But still, to suddenly disappear like this...
Knock knock knock- (sound of running)
문준휘
Oh my...oh my...Jihoon...
홍지수
I heard
윤정한
Until just a moment ago, we were together with Jubi.
윤정한
But I don't know exactly when
윤정한
Ah! Joobi said that it was time to return to the palace.
윤정한
I think it disappeared on the way back to the palace.
전원우
No... I think it disappeared a long time ago...
부승관
What the... When did it disappear?
서명호
Ha..where did you go
여주비
Uh..sob..sob..sob Ji-hoon..brother..
윤정한
Don't cry, I'll be back soon (pat)
권순영
How dare you shed tears in front of the princes!
윤정한
Hey Kwon Soon-young, we gave you permission to do it in front of us.
윤정한
Don't be so quick, just shut up
권순영
Can't we see it? We don't want to see him cry?
여주하
Just leave it alone.. It must be sad that the older brother who loved you so much is gone.
권순영
…what if you do that
Creak- (sound of a door opening)
전원우
Who are you?
필요한역할
You're here, Princess Mama
여주비
Have I been proposed to again?
필요한역할
Today's news isn't about Princess Jubi.
필요한역할
I have something to tell Princess Juha.
여주하
What's going on?
필요한역할
No, don't be surprised. Listen. It's the king's command.
여주하
(I'm shaking slightly because I'm nervous)
권순영
(Gently grabs Joo-ha's hand)
여주하
! (Looks at Sunyoung in surprise)
권순영
(Smiling slightly to reassure Joo-ha)
여주하
…
필요한역할
It is a royal decree to send Princess Zhu to the Ming prince.
필요한역할
His Majesty has ordered preparations to be made for departure tonight.
여주비
Phew- lol
최승철
what..?
이찬
today..?!!
이석민
Is Your Majesty really crazy..?!!
김민규
Even though Jihoon hyung is missing, you're going to send Jooha noona too?
여주하
…
권순영
It'll be okay
권순영
Don't worry, Joo Ha
여주하
I'll definitely take this
여주하
Everyone will keep thinking about it and not forget it
여주하
So don't worry about me... everyone is doing well.
권순영
…
이석민
(Holding back tears)
최승철
Joo Ha-ya...
ㆍㆍㆍ
The fact that the real story begins when Juha goes to the Ming Dynasty... haha
Cheers and comments are polite💫
