"Sungjae-ssi, besides being a Prince or King of Joseon what would you like to become in the future?"A 19 year old Joy asked him.

Sungjae thought deep before he glanced at the young lady who was patiently waiting for his answer.

"Your husband."he spoke which surprised Joy upon his declaration, witnessing her reaction Sungjae bursted out laughing as he continuously apologize for his teasing.

"It's true but I would really want to become a famous singer in the entire world."he then added which slowly made Joy smile.

"That's great. You can start joining the Circus while you sing, though you can't beat Wendy-eonnie. Still you can start as her back up singer."Joy playfully encouraged him.

"Nah. The Circus is Wendy-noona's territory, mine would be in your heart."he again said his cheesy lines which made Joy slap his arm from his continuous playfulness.

"Aigoo, you're such a funny guy."Joy comments which made Sungjae looked at her lovingly.

"I may only be a funny guy to you but this funny guy's heart only beats for you."he said confidently as he winked at her earning Joy more butterflies in her stomach as the two of them started laughing with their cute conversation.

"You really know how to use words to make girls fall for you."Joy said sounding a bit worried which made Sungjae grin knowing he has that effect on her.

"Don't worry, it would only you I'll be looking at for the rest of my life."he said. Joy just rolled her eyes from the guys cheesiness.

"Oh really? Then would you be able to catch a bullet for me?"Joy tried to test him. Sungjae was taken aback by her sudden question but was able to compose himself as he smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I would catch a bullet for you if means to see you smile like this."he said as he caressed her face which cause Joy to be shy.

"Aigoo, let's change the subject."Joy trailed off unable to hide the redness of her face which made Sungjae extra happy seeing her blushing because of him.

BANG!!

"Sungjae!"everyone yelled as they saw Sungjae quickly ran towards Joy and caught the bullet for her getting himself shot from behind him. Sooyoung was startled seeing the man she loves giving her an embrace to save her from death, but it turns out he sacrificed himself for her.

"No! No! Sungjae!!!"Joy started screaming in his arms. Sungjae on the other hand was already coughing blood from his mouth.

All of Do Hwan's guards were all turned down when Eunkwang and Ilhoon came to help as Kyungsoo rushed towards a lifeless Do Hwan on the floor.

"You bastard! You can't just die without being punished with all your wrong doings!"Kyungsoo yelled as he kept on shaking his body, turns our Do Hwan had swallowed a bottle of poison. Hyunsik managed to come to him and calm him down.

"That's enough Kyungsoo."Hyunsik trailed off managing to calm him down. As the three ladies were all in tears watching Sooyoung breakdown in tears as she was hugging Sungjae, trying her hardest to cover up his wounds. Sooyoung managed to rip off a portion on the skirt of her dress and covered it on Sungjae's bleeding spot.

Changsub and Peniel slowly approached the two injured people as Hyunsik and Suho managed to assist their wives leaving Eunkwang, Ilhoon and Minhyuk to assist Ga Young back to the car.
