Can he find his soulmate again in this l...
The young royals hadn't met up since their night camping hangout, each of them absorbed in their own lives and responsibilities.
Among them, Sunghoon was the busiest, his schedule packed with more obligations than the others.
After a few days, the five Grand Dukes and Prince Jaehyun (the king's brother) arrived at the royal palace for their regular six-monthly meeting with the king.

The Royal Palace in Capital.
This inner circle meeting was a crucial event, as these leaders managed various regions of the country. The Crown Prince was also joining the meeting this time.
Sunghoon was especially pleased about this inner circle gathering.
The members of the inner circle were his uncle and the fathers of his close friends, and he had known them since he was young.
The meeting went smoothly, and everyone moved to the royal dining room for lunch.
During the meal, Duke Kim, Sunoo's father, mentioned that he wanted to speak with the king and Sunghoon afterward.
After lunch, Duke Kim approached the king and Sunghoon.
"What is it, Kim? What do you have to tell us?" the king asked, his tone casual.
Despite the formality of royal duties, the king and the Grand Dukes often conversed informally, as they had been friends since their youth.
Duke Kim replied, "The thing is, Sungho (King's name), I have an idea for a Humanitarian and Social Youth Program in our eastern region."
The king responded enthusiastically, "Wow, that's a wonderful idea, Kim. I love it! I will provide everything you need for it."
"I knew you'd like it, Sungho," Duke Kim said with a smile, looking at Sunghoon. "And I want our Crown Prince's help as well."
"Oh, really?If you want, our Hoon can help you, right, Hoon?" Sunghoon's father asked, looking at him.
"Yeah, Uncle, I'd love to help you," Sunghoon replied.
Duke Kim continued, "I haven't planned the project yet, so I'd like you and Sunoo to create the plan and manage it. What do you think, son?"
Sunghoon didn't hesitate. "Okay, Uncle, I'll try my best with Sunoo's help."
"That's a good choice, Kim," the king said, appreciative. "I didn't expect Sunghoon and your son to make the plan, but it's a great idea. We should let the young ones handle some things as well. Thank you for the suggestion."
"So, Sunghoon, it's a big project. What do you think? Will you come with us or manage it from here?" Duke Kim asked.
Before Sunghoon could respond, the king interjected, "I think, Hoon, you should go with Duke Kim to the eastern region. It's beneficial to go there, study the region, and oversee the project firsthand. It will help you in your future role as king, as you'll gain valuable insight into the regions."
