The Red Sleeve

There was a king who was said to be scarier than a goblin. And there was a court lady who wanted to live a long life. Strangely, the two found each other to be unpleasant. And so they drew closer. Yet, they didn’t get closer. While they shared one difficult and uncertain step at a time, both kept to their places like a habit. Her life was shaken by the king’s sudden feelings for her. “Do you really cherish me? If you do, please don’t even greet me in the next life.” This is a sad love story between a king who had to love his country, and a court lady who loved her life, both of whom could never be equals.
