Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Joseon crown prince's education system historically included male companions called 'seja-sagang' — the drama twists this into romantic tension with Hwi's secret.
Park Eun-bin reportedly studied male speech patterns and gait for months; the director banned her from feminine mannerisms on set to maintain the performance's integrity.
