This is a work of fiction. Characters, incidents, settings, titles, and content have no relevance to real life.
Put your life on the line, you say?
And even by risking your life,
what is the truth you hope to reveal?
That is...
my true name.
The new queen is...
Ye Hyeon Seon.
The maiden who has been selected, please come up.
What are you doing? How dare you come up here...
Why? Your name is Hyeon Hui.
Oh, isn't that...Isn't that Eonni So Rang?
Isn't she the owner of Aedaldang?
Aigoo. Aigoo, you're right! Maiden So Rang!
Yeah, it's her!
Final Episode I called one person's name, but two people have come up.
Who between you two is the real Ye Hyeon Seon?
Tell me clearly. Are you saying that you will withdraw from this?
Yes, that is what I intend. It is because Ye Hyun Seon is not lacking in any way
in receiving the love of the his majesty, the mighty king.
Also, more than anyone else, her feelings toward the king are sincere, loving, caring...
and wholly devoted.
Up until now, the queen selection was completely decided by the elders of the royal family.
An arranged marriage that lacks love was accepted as normal.
However, how could there be happiness in a marriage that lacks love?
For his majesty to marry the one he truly loves and establish peace within the royal family
is for the benefit of his people.
Queen Dowager, may your generous heart
consider the sincere feelings between the two people
as the top priority in making your selection.
As such, the one who should be by the king's side...
must be the real Ye Hyeon Seon.
It is I...I am the true Ye Hyeon Seon.
N-No. It is not so. It is me.
My name and identity were both stolen by wicked people involved in the queen selection.
I am thus standing here to reveal the truth.
She is an insane girl!
I am the one who passed all three rounds of the queen selection.
Her real name is Hyeon Hui.
She is born of Lady Seo, the concubine taken by my father.
Lord, why are you just standing here?
H-Hyeon Seon...
Did you not say she eloped with a male servant? How is she there...?
Upon hearing our daughter passed all three queen selection rounds,
she appeared suddenly, looking for a chance to be queen.
Your Excellency Ye, please make your way up here.
I think there is something you must confirm for us.
My Lord, you know, right? My daughter is the real Hyeon Seon.
If they find out we have come this far while hiding her real name,
our entire Ye clan will be exterminated for the sin of disdaining the royal family.
Will you bring death upon all our family members because of that wench who betrayed her own father and ran away?
My Lord.
Subtitles by the Anti-marriage Ban Minions @ Viki
Father...
How ill you must've been...
for you to look so haggard.
I am sorry. I was busy trying to survive alone...
Father, what is he like? The young master from the Willow Tree residence?
I mean, I heard...he is quite handsome.
Father, please explain right away.
That I am the real Ye Hyeon Seon.
That girl is the worst swindler in the world!
Do not worry. I, your father, will take care of everything.
This child...
is my second daughter, Hyeon Hui.
What is he saying?
And that child over there...is my eldest daughter, Hyeon Seon.
Father...
Hyeon Seon...My daughter Hyeon Seon.
I am sorry.
Please forgive this terrible father of yours.
Just...Just what exactly is going on?
Everything is my fault, Your Highness.
I was unable to properly govern my household, therefore I created such a mess.
Please punish me, Your Highness.
No, Your Highness. All these events were instigated by Lady Seo.
There could not be two Ye Hyeon Seons in this world.
That is why seven years ago, and even about a month ago,
Lady Seo ordered someone to harm me!
Moreover, by kidnapping Maiden Seong Hwa Yun, who was part of the queen selection,
she tried to manipulate this nation's queen selection process.
Worst of all, that woman is one of the accomplices in the kidnapping of many women unable to marry
during this Marriage Ban era and then selling them for a price in marriage.
- Gosh... - Did she really?
How could she ...
That is not true! How could a mere woman like me do such a thing...
What are you all doing? Arrest that criminal immediately!
N-No! No! It's all a lie! No! Let go! I said it isn't so!
- Mother! - Let go of me, you ruffians! It is not true!
It is not so! It is not so! I said no! Let go!
I said no! Let go! No!
Father...
I knew that you were the Ye Hyeon Seon called upon
by the queen dowager.
Hence I kindly ask you to answer this question.
I receive you standing before me as my queen.
For all my life, I will be faithful to you,
bring you happiness,
and love you.
Will you become my queen?
Oh, my, look!
Wow... daebak...
I...
So...
I will do so.
The Marriage Ban Edict for this country...
is now over.
The Marriage Ban is over!
With this,
our Born Sul Ro group is now disbanded!
Now, let us find our own lovers,
love wholeheartedly,
and finally, be happy!
Father! I can now marry!
Orabeoni Do Seok.
Go to him now.
Orabeoni Do Seok.
Painter Jeong...
Maiden Hae Yeong.
At that time...
I didn't know, that's why.
The one I truly long for...
The one I love...
is you, Orabeoni.
Where were you all this time?
Orabeoni.
Since the Marriage Ban is now over,
will you...
marry me?
Huh?
Will you marry me, I said!
- Are you not going to? - Well, that...
Well, of course, I will.
Si Yul! I love you!
Marry me, please!
Young Master Jong Bin!
I waited seven years for you. You know, right?
GyeongJin!
Please look upon me now!
Puppy, help me propose...
Chae Won.
Wow, what's this?
Success!
I love you, Yeong Seon Will you marry me?
As soon as the Marriage Ban Edict is repealed, propose with a flower palanquin
Win her over with rings in a flower palanquin
How to propose in the Joseon era
Let's be happy in sacred marriage!
To hold power,
one must secure their high place through royal marriage.
With the queen selection failed,
do you have any other ideas in mind?
No need to make a fuss.
The life of the new queen too
will not be too long.
I see...
In the midst of this, Na Sang Ju has disappeared.
We should be relieved about this, shouldn't we?
Who might this be?
Where have you been all this time?
How could I protect you
if I do not know your whereabouts?
Protect me, you say?
As far as I know,
you sent someone to kill me.
I will now inform them about everything you have done.
How you bastard commissioned me to murder seven years ago,
so that you may enact the Marriage Ban Edict.
The things you ordered me each year
to be able to prolong that Edict!
I will even speak of the horrid happenings
surrounding the women of this country
during the Marriage Ban era.
You knave, how dare you...
Where should we cut
in order to shut you up?
Get rid of him.
I released him to go and find his owner,
and I see this is where he turns up.
This knave will soon die, you say?
By some means
that's what will happen eventually.
You still have some work to do, however.
Letting you die would be a pity, so your superiors could cut the tail off.
That said, I will spare your life this one time.
How dare you look upon the king's face!
Enough.
On top of sparing your life,
I shall release you from here.
So go and hunt down
your knave of a master.
Congratulations, Your Majesty.
Finally Your Majesty
has chosen the queen for this nation.
However, it is a shame.
For I intend ...
to make the new bride a widow.
You knave
have subjected countless women to unbearable shame by kidnapping them
and, because of thwarting the queen selection by your heinous murder,
you have prevented marriage for the people of the whole country.
You have committed a felony that cannot even be weighed!
Attack!
I will no longer allow this nation's fate
to be played by the hands of such traitors.
What are you thinking about so intently?
Well...
That we could just be happy now. Something like that...
And what were you thinking about?
Just, you know...
Glancing at this fire
in this moment of tranquility...
The commotion from the other day feels like it was all a dream.
There is one thing I would like to ask Your Majesty.
Since when did you know about my name?
Sin Won informed me last time.
There is a reason I have returned.
It is to recover the name of the person who must stay by Your Majesty's side.
So why did you not tell me about your name?
Because I believed...
my name is something I must find on my own.
In the end, I owe it to the Queen Dowager
who believed what I said.
I had trust in my grandmother as well.
I knew that she would stand by your side
once she found out the whole truth.
Can I...
continue to call you So Rang?
Of course.
I much prefer that as well.
I cannot believe...
that someone so dashing is to become my dear husband.
You are so pretty.
Oh, my...
Gosh.
If you must,
there is a location I know of.
The setting is outdoors, but...
May Your Majesty...
not hesitate...
Then...
as there is much...
m-much left to discuss... so, let us...
Whatever is left, let us... in there...
Yes, indeed.
There you are!
The Head Eunuch who was leading me kept getting lost.
I thought I would never run into you tonight.
At such a late time, though...
what were you two doing?
- Oh... - Well...
We were just about to leave after finishing our conversation.
I see. Is that so?
Then, as for our Queen-to-be, follow me.
- What? - What?
Come now.
This ueen-to-be is no longer a maid of the royal chamber.
She will be spending about 40 days at a separate palace.
She is now an undeniable bride-to-be.
Will I not be able to see her during that time, then?
Your people have waited seven years.
Yet you cannot even wait just 40 days?
- Well... - Do not worry, my King!
This grandmother will take great care of her granddaughter-in-law until the royal marriage.
Now, let us go.
There are lots to do!
Onward we go.
Pay attention. Do not be distracted.
Now, let's go.
Actually...
I called you here because I had something to tell you separately.
Yes, Your Highness.
For not being able to...
believe you sooner...
I am sorry.
Your Highness specifically called me in before the third queen selection process to speak to me.
Are you not afraid?
You intend to reveal the truth...
even by risking your life.
Do you not know how difficult it is
to survive within this palace
and persevere on one's path?
However,
Your Highness has not lost the way.
Even though the ones you once trusted
had deceived you,
you were not shaken by it
and kept your balance.
I am not afraid.
Because I believe Your Highness has recognized my sincerity.
My saying thank you is a bit late.
You are the one who saved my grandson from the depths of darkness.
Yet I kept cornering you when I should have
really thanked you.
For you are the one
whom my grandson loves the most in the world.
You are now someone
who is most precious to me as well.
Your Highness.
Come here.
Let me embrace you.
Dear.
My dear granddaughter-in-law.
I have high hopes for you.
Since you have already spent some time in the palace,
I'm sure you will adjust quicker than those coming from private homes.
Starting tomorrow, you will rise at insi* (3 a.m. - 5 a.m.)
and receive lessons on etiquette and rules.
But-
Myosi*. (5 a.m. - 7 a.m.)
My focus is optimal during myosi.
Don't be ridiculous.
Insi!
Insi...
Let us go...
Head Court Lady Won?
I am Head Court Lady Won, who has reentered the palace temporarily,
given the assignment of educating the queen-to-be.
It's been a while since we were here.
When I met you at that time, I thought,
"Whoa, she must really have deep ties with me."
I felt this at once intuitively.
Yes, Queen-to-be.
Now, the day after the party,
after formally greeting the queen dowager,
you must hold a Myohyunrye*. (Ancestral ritual done by the Queen/Crown Princess)
Myohyunrye is a custom of paying respect to one's ancestors.
Once you have completed such a procedure, you will be acknowledged as a true daughter-in-law.
When you formally greet the elders, you must bow deeply.
However, at the myohyunrye and ceremony,
the proper way to bow is different.
Why don't you give it a try?
- Right now? - Yes, yes.
- Now, rise. - Yes.
Like this, and this...
You should look here.
The headpiece may be too heavy and break your neck.
- You must not make a big mistake... - Head Court Lady!
I must be feeling slightly anemic...
Queen-to-be.
Whom are you trying to fool?
Trying to get away with your silly old tricks.
Seven years since I've used these!
Sit down now.
As the head of court ladies, you must have accurate knowledge of the line of descendants.
Head Court Lady Won.
Let us...
have a snack break first.
Yes, why don't we?
How is it that you did not change at all?
That is exactly what I would like to say!
Can you all leave for a moment?
We are so busy,
so why are you sending all the maids away?
Because I had something to tell you, Head Court Lady Won.
Do not even call me a court lady.
I am afraid that I might end up permanently settling here like this.
Then I shall call you a temporary.
Hey, Temporary.
What are you deepening your voice for?
You are not even able to use it, yet you are trying to act manly...
Hey, Temporary.
Do you think that everyone who is a eunuch is unable to use it?
O-Of course.
A hundred out of a hundred, a thousand out of a thousand...
every single one of us?
How do you know when you have not even seen it?
But it is not as if I can check for myself.
If you really need to check for yourself to believe!
Aigoo, no!
There is no need!
Why?
You may speak otherwise later.
I will not speak otherwise.
Then...
you should stop rebuffing me now.
A former palace lady is sent out of the palace to her private home
so that she may freely get married.
So now, there appears to be nothing that would stop us from being together.
Gosh...
So, you should now...
marry...
me.
Gosh!
Won Nyeo!
Head Court Lady Won said she was going to get some snacks...
Did she go to make sugar herself?
Won Nyeo!
- Won Nyeo. - Come on, seriously ...
Won Nyeo.
Stop coming toward me.
- Seriously... - Won Nyeo.
- Aigoo. - You'll be in big trouble when I catch you.
I see that she has been sprinkling sugar all over the place.
But why this mountain of all places?
Because of your kidnapping gang,
I lost my 17-year-old younger sister.
Finally,
I get my reward
for enduring all these years.
Herbal medicine prescription
For Ye Hyeon Ho, having seen the prescriptions you received from the herbalist,
you had been made sick from taking herbs that weakened your body for many years.
So I judge you were unaware of the crime. However,
I cannot let the fact that you allowed this great trouble to take place
by not properly governing your family well from the start.
Retire to the countryside and reflect on your actions.
Mother...
What is going to happen to us now?
For Ye Hyeon Hui, who deceived the royal family,
you will be made into a government slave and sent to the fields of Tamna
to do hard labor for the rest of your life.
Mother...
Hyeon Hui!
Also, Seo Wun Jeong, who had several people kidnapped and murdered,
and rigged this nation's queen selection
disturbing the custom of the royal family,
will receive no mercy and be sentenced to death by hanging!
You are so beautiful, Queen-to-be, Your Highness.
Wait,
you are queen, Your Highness, from today on.
You are very pretty, Your Highness.
I made special arrangements to bring them here.
Are they not your family?
Old man...
You knew, right?
I should have known. Ever since I first came to you dressed in beggar's rags seven years ago,
you were strangely nice to me.
There is a phrase called Life Jong* Per. (Korean for bell)
Until the bell signifying the end of your life rings, persevere.
Geez.
It appears that our Jong Per wins out in the end again.
You should have said something to me in advance, too!
Why?
Are your clothes heavy?
Yes.
It is so heavy...
It is so heavy,
I do not think I can move forward.
I mean, think about it.
How could a fraud like me become the queen?
I do not think that way.
Is there anyone like you who has traveled to every corner of Joseon?
The one who met all those people
and helped solve all of their secret love affairs,
and ultimately made them laugh was you.
In my opinion, rather than a maiden who has grown up like a flower in a greenhouse,
you, who rolled in a field of dog poop, are better.
D-Dog poop?
What have you been doing all this time?
Acting as an affection glue.
That is right.
What you have been doing was growing that small flutter into a big love.
All you have to do is do what you have been doing.
Just as you helped his majesty to believe in love again,
generously share your affection with the people who are starved for love due to the Marriage Ban Edict,
and help his majesty to execute policies that are for the people.
I, too, believe that you can do it, Your Highness.
Since, Eonni,
your very presence is happiness!
Oh, my eyes! So bright!
All right.
A maternity leave?
It is said that there was an incident
in which a servant in the royal kitchen collapsed
when she returned to work seven days after giving birth.
Postnatal care is so important after giving birth,
so how could she return to work in just seven days?
Then by chance, even when I give birth,
will you be able to order me to get up after seven days and perform all my duties as queen?
That is a different situation.
- You are this nation's queen- - It is not different.
I, too, was no different from them
before I entered the palace.
It does not make sense that I would need 70 days to recover as the queen,
and yet seven days would suffice as a wanderer, even though it is the same body.
Your Majesty, a child who is born after being carried in the womb for ten months
is precious to anyone.
Please show the same care for your people
as you care for me.
As much as I want to care for you, you say ...
Regardless of one's status,
I will extend the seven days that were given for maternity leave
to 100 days.
A-A hundred days?
Also, in the case that a wife has given birth,
give the husband 30 days of paternity leave too.
Your Majesty, the one who gave birth is the wife,
so is there really a need for that?
Of course.
Who will take care of the exhausted mother and the newborn?
Since we have caused much pain for the people through the long-lasting marriage ban,
this nation will take care
of the children who are born from now on.
We shall carry out your command, Your Majesty.
Royal Chief Secretary.
You know, the servant who collapsed...
Send the physician to her and have him check on her current condition.
Actually, I was a bit concerned myself, so I already had her checked.
But he said that wind had entered her wrists and ankles, and her body has weakened,
so she will take a long time to recover.
Queen.
I only need you.
All of a sudden?
To give birth to a child,
you would have to risk your life.
No.
What if I were to lose you...
Calm down, Your Majesty.
I appreciate that you care for me this much,
but this is going too far!
You just made such an important decision for the children who are to be born.
Yet how could you delay my own childbearing!
But So Rang...
what if things get dangerous for you?
I do not think it is something for us to get scared about in advance and avoid.
No matter what difficult situation we face,
we will be able to push through it well
because we are together.
So Rang...
Your Majesty.
You must have suffered so much in your heart.
How could I understand
the feeling of losing your child?
But I would like to ease the pain that you have suffered all these years.
Your Highness...
I have requested that the late crown princess' unfair death be cleared of false accusations and her title restored,
so we will soon issue a posthumous name for her
and prepare a new grave befitting her rank.
My daughter...
I mean,
our crown princess...
After she passed like that,
the public has been uttering vulgar criticisms of her
for being the main reason for the long-lasting Marriage Ban.
I could not even properly defend her
against all those harsh words,
and yet, to think that you would care so much for us, Your Highness.
Do not cry.
Stop your tears.
Match it well over there.
Gosh.
Over there, too.
Is it not so great!
Oh, wow.
I mean, our palace has changed.
Only the palace?
It is as if the entire nation has gotten brighter.
Just like our queen.
And most importantly, his majesty has been deeply involved in all of his affairs!
He ordered that those who could not marry because they were poor
be provided with marriage goods and 100 nyang.* (Joseon currency)
He ordered that those who are having difficulty raising their children be identified
and provide them with the necessary supplies.
Mothers who give birth shall be given 100 days of maternity leave.
There have been so many backed-up weddings over the past few years that everyone is looking for feast workers.
All right, what is next?
He has accepted the request of the official in charge of issuing ID tags for additional personnel,
- as he is experiencing a sudden increase in workload. - All right, do so.
- Next. - These are all good things.
- Yes. - But, Chief State Councilor ...
Why do you seem so gloomy, Chief State Councilor?
You should go in first.
- You should go in first. - No, you should go up first.
No, you should go in first.
Look, you have changed a lot since we last met.
You should hurry up.
You should not get angry and go in.
How is it...
that the two of you are like this here?
Your Highness.
Please do something about my Hwa Yun.
Your Highness, please do something about my Sin Won.
Could you two not do something about it together?
I came because I had a request to make of you.
What request would my queen have for me?
At a time when the Marriage Ban Edict has been repealed, and everyone is able to get married,
there is still someone who is forbidden from getting married.
Is that so?
With things like this, we cannot say that it is a world
where everyone is free to love and get married.
What about
you save that person as well?
Just who is it?
Even the maidens who are eliminated from the three-part queen selection are considered the king's,
and are therefore unable to get married.
Just because the Marriage Ban Edict was repealed
does not mean that she is able to avoid the fate of living alone.
His majesty has granted your request?
Does that mean that I can get married as well?
But,
why is it so noisy outside?
Hey! It appears that the wildcats
have ripped a hole in the chicken coop.
What shall we do?
Please wait here. I will go see what I can do.
Hurry up and catch it!
Capture the chicken!
Hurry and grab it!
Catch the chicken!
Geez...
Aigoo.
Goodness...
All of these...
Aigoo,
our lady was this good?
Chief Lee Sin Won?
What are you doing here?
Well, first...
it would be good to get up first before we talk.
Oh, right. ♫ You gently tap on my heart through the flowers ♫
But for what reason are you leaving in such a dangerous fashion?
Oh, no, it is not that.
I was trying to capture the chicken, and...
You were personally doing that, Lady?
♫ Will your sweet voice which comes from far away make my heart cry? ♫
Well, I came to return your clothing.
Your dress was damaged so it took some time to get it repaired.
- I am sorry. - Oh, that one from that time?
Yes. My father got mad at me,
saying that I needed to return things like these in person.
Give me one second.
♫ Do you know how I feel? ♫
This...
Here,
and here, too.
Look.
It is embarrassing, so stop it.
Do not laugh.
And you cannot hold in laughter, either.
All right, then.
Wait.
It is cold outside,
so you should eat something with us before you go.
Then,
how about a bowl of boiled chicken with that chicken over there?
No, not that one.
I have already grown affectionate with it.
I even named it.
Well, what is its name?
Chicken Porridge.
What?
That is a bit cruel...
♫ Even on a day when the petals flutter ♫
Chicken Porridge, let us go!
Come on! ♫ Oh this white night with the flowers raining downr ♫
♫ Will you also think of me? ♫
Congratulations on the First Former Palace Ladies Group Blind Introduction Meeting
I was pretty famous
in my neighborhood for being good at soccer.
Well, oh...
When we were in the army at the frontier?
When I was in the army,
I was pretty good at soccer.
So, when I count to three,
shall we try to point our fingers at the one that we like?
Yes, yes.
Then...
One, two, three!
In this world,
there are relationships that just do not form, no matter how much you try.
And there are also relationships just form without any effort, like attracting magnets.
What is the secret to that?
It is compatibility.
All right. For the ladies,
how about writing down your horoscope for me?
I will help you find the man who is perfect for your life.
Oh, wow.
Here.
Day and time of birth
Let me see...
Oh, for you,
it seems as if this man would be your best match.
I do not know about right now,
but as you live with him,
you will realize that a man like him, who is simple like a bear, is the real deal.
Thank you.
Oh, for you,
this man would seem to be a good match.
And for you, this one seems to be a good match.
All right, then.
What is the point of helping others with their relationships?
I need to find my own relationship.
Would it be impossible to find that in Joseon?
Must I be reborn?
Let me see...
I did not know you were such a rich man, Eunuch.
And I did not know that you were so full of love, my wife.
Father!
Aigoo, my children.
Aigoo, did you have a lot of fun?
It is nice to have a father, right?
Yes!
It's a lot better than when you were living in Affection Village, right?
Yes!
Now we are all family.
The bride will now bow.
The groom will bow in response.
Look over there!
You have waited a long time for this, my son!
You look handsome!
Finally, I am marrying her off.
Gosh, so pretty...
My daughter is now getting married!
Congratulations!
Aigoo, hooray!
Hooray!
Hooray!
We are in a time of sacred marriages now.
This is all thanks to her majesty the courageous and benevolent queen
ending the Marriage Ban era.
S-Sacred Marriage!
Goodness... what a foreign word to us...
What brings you here at such a late hour?
I mean,
the Marriage Ban is now over,
so how come
we cannot find anyone?
Is not the world being too mean to us?
Then, what did you think?
Did you think that when the Marriage Ban ends,
a woman would just fall from the sky, right into your lap?
We did...
If you want to gain a person's heart, you need to put in the effort!
If you keep just moping around like that,
you will grow old as a Born Sul Ro,
and ascend to the heavens with a cintamani in your mouth.
So,
I am telling you to go out with an open heart
and look around for an opportunity.
You never know when and where love might find you.
I have not found anyone that I like that much yet, either...
But what if the Marriage Ban Edict returns?
Oh! No!
If you really cannot find anyone,
then how about you two be together!
I will tell you in detail about how that works.
Gosh! No way!
Buy your furs!
Buy your furs!
Come and look!
Buy your furs!
Before another Marriage Ban Edict falls on this nation,
before the days where love and marriage is prohibited returns,
I say to all of the people
for today and tomorrow,
you must...
So Rang.* (Sounds like "sarang", which is love in Korean)
Come here, Your Majesty.
That is good.
But is it proper to just let him draw the portrait of the king like this?
It is great. It's a commemoration.
And most importantly, in Painter Jeong's next work,
characters that resemble us are going to appear,
so we should actively cooperate with him.
Smile.
- Could you get a bit closer to each other? - I don't want to do it.
Will we be able to finish by today at this rate?
Who knew they would have so much trouble with stationary poses?
You know, there are poses like this.
How about something like this?
My Lady, I am sorry,
but it appears we need to be like this for us to finish quickly.
We should get used to this by the time this ends, right?
I-I do not know.
All right, next.
All right.
They look handsome.
We are not late, are we?
Children, let us go in.
Instead of doing it like this,
shall we all stand together?
But what is the name of the new work
that you have his majesty here for this painting?

The Forbidden Marriage
Hanyang was this big?
It is so big!
You know what?
There was a time when all young men and women could not get married.
But there are so many houses and people here!
It was not only here but across the land of Joseon.
But do you know me?
Seeing your clothes are of expensive fabric,
you look like a young lady of the royal family.
Then how come you are talking to me without honorifics, even though you know?
It is pretty obvious that I am your orabeoni.
Orabeoni, my foot.
We should just be friends.
My father told me not to be friends with girls.
He said that becoming friends with girls is the start of all tragedies.
I just wanted to say that you are really pretty.
My name is Min Wu.
What is your name?
My name is...
Ri Yun.
