Glory Days (Cha Yiwon)

Synopsis

Defeated in war, Geonmu, a former emperor, loses all power and is taken as a prisoner by the enemy nation. Stripped of dignity and freedom, he is forced to become the personal plaything of the beautiful yet merciless, Yeonhwa.

Yeonhwa, who once forcefully claimed Geonmu’s body, now seeks to control every aspect of his life—his movements, his thoughts, even his emotions. And yet, each night, the emperor weeps, asking if Geonmu has truly forgotten him, whispering confessions of love through trembling lips.

“Your Majesty... you are beautiful.”

But Geonmu can no longer tell if the turmoil in his heart is hatred or something far more dangerous.

As the line between enemy and lover begins to blur, Geonmu is left questioning: Is this agony the product of betrayal… or the weight of a love that should never have existed?
