(Formerly Named "Crowned Ties)
Description:
In a world where kingdoms are held together by fragile alliances, Princes Hyunjin and Bang Chan are thrust into an arranged marriage meant to unite their rival realms and stave off impending war. Neither expects to find anything more than duty and compromise in their union, but as they navigate palace intrigue, assassination threats, and the burdens of royalty, they begin to uncover a deeper connection.
Hyunjin, an artist with a restless spirit, struggles to accept a life dictated by politics and expectations, while Bang Chan, steadfast and protective, carries the weight of his people on his shoulders. Their bond is tested as they face hidden enemies and long-buried secrets about their families' intertwined histories.
Meanwhile, their trusted friends-Han, Minho, Felix, Changbin, Seungmin, and Jeongin-find themselves drawn into the chaos, their relationships deepening in the face of danger. As loyalties are questioned and love blossoms in unexpected ways, the group must rely on one another to protect their kingdoms, their futures, and their hearts.
Hearts of Crown and Chaos is a story of love, friendship, and courage, where the greatest battles are fought not on the battlefield but within the heart. Will Hyunjin and Bang Chan's union be enough to save their kingdoms, or will the secrets threatening to unravel their world tear them apart?
