{1624}

         It was summer of 1624 in the era of the great Joseon Dynasty when a warrior named Jeon Jungkook met a wonderful and young Kisaeng by the name of Park Jimin, in one of his journey with his fellow warriors. The little boy is still in his trainee years; pouring tea and serving the guests but never entertain their advances... He is smart, kind-hearted and beautiful boy with a long and shiny black hair and fair as the snow skin... It is rumored that the latter is a son of a noble to one of the kisaeng working on the gibang before... (Kisaeng house) Sadly, his mother died due to an illness, and Jimin is left behind the care of the other kisaeng...

One unexpected evening, a son of a noble clan went to the gibang to celebrate his birthday... He ordered several drinks for him and his friends, signalling kisaeng to entertain them... They saw Jimin walking past their room, with his beautiful pink silk  hanbok... His hair is clipped with jade hairpin, as it falls through his back... The noble child ordered the kisaeng to bring the boy into their room, yet the woman refuses, as Jimin is still a trainee... Enraged by her refusal, the man quickly drew his sword and pointed it to the poor lady...
He is already intoxicated with alcohol, and killing a kisaeng who refuse him is tempting...

"Are you aware of what you've done, slave? You do know that refusing a noble means two things: Either you're a royal blood, which I'm more than sure that you're not; or you're willing to face your own demise... And to be honest, I would love to do the latter..."

The woman can't believe that she's actually being threatened by the noble son, and she's more than sure that he is serious about killing her... So instead of fighting, she ducked her head; Too afraid to even look at the drunk man... She is bracing herself for anything, as the noble didn't treat the kisaeng other than a mere toy... When the man was about to decapitate her, the royal warrior Jeon interrupt him and even punch the life out of the noble son... The man was knocked out of his senses, while his friends are too afraid for their own lives to interfere...

Royal warriors are born to protect the Royal family even if it means that they will give up their own life and freedom... They were trained to become the best warriors of the nation, and pledge their loyalty to the king... They are also given the authority to kill the nobles if needed, most especially if they are threatening the position of the king... And although this is far beyond that, Royal warrior Jeon is a fair man... He never care about the status nor their education... If that person will hurt the people of the kingdom, even if they are part of the nobility, he will definitely kill them with his own hands...

"I heard what you said to this lady, young noble man... But keep in mind that once you kill an innocent woman, you will also experience the same fate as her; or if not , then more... A kisaeng is also part of the people ruled by our king... So if you kill her, then I must kill you... An eye for an eye to be precise..." Said Jeon.

The nobles were horrified at the warrior as they hurriedly took their friend out of the gibang... Warrior Jeon was about to leave too when the smaller rushed inside the room and hug her noona... Holy shit he looks ethereal. The boy cries like a lost wolf; whispering apologies to his beloved noona... This isn't the first time that the people in gibang almost lost their lives because of him... But this is the closest one to death...

"Forgive me Seo Hee-noona! Forgive me! I'm so sorry! I should have come sooner... If only I knew that the noble son wanted me to serve him, then this wouldn't happen... I'm sorry noona! Please forgive me..." The younger boy is so distressed with the news that he didn't noticed the Royal warrior in front of him, not until his noona thanked the latter for saving her life...

"Thank you so much Royal warrior... I know that this servant can't offer you anything... But you still choose to save me for him..." She whisper-cry.

Warrior Jeon looks at the two with such pity... Kisaeng didn't really receive any respect from the nobles and it is a disgrace in the name of their king... He just hope that poor people like them will have a better life in the future...

"T-thank you dear sir..." Jimin sniffles as he look up to him. "Noona is my only family here..." He embrace her tighter as if his life depends on it.

"You don't have to thank me... I am a Royal warrior and it's my job to protect the people of the kingdom..." He replied. "And I will definitely do the same to those slaves..."

Jimin looks up to him with such admiration... This is the first time that someone saved them in the hands of the noble. And if this warrior would ask him anything, he will do it wholeheartedly...

"Do you mind if I could get a drink? I'm kinda thirsty after what happened..." Warrior Jeon said.

Jimin nods. "Yes yes! I will personally prepare another room for you dear warrior..."

"Thank you..."
