The video shows Wang Won requesting Eun San to forgive Wang Rin for hiding the involvement of his elder brother in her mother's death. "Let's just cover everything up and pretend it never happened. Can't you do that?" the Crown Prince asks the female lead.

But the female lead informs the Crown Prince that she can never forgive someone like Wang Rin. "He deceived me! So I don't think I could do that. As if nothing happened," she informs him. Shortly, Wang Dan meets Eun San requesting her for forgiveness on behalf of her brother. "You know that my third brother is in love with you, right? Please forgive him," she says.

The footage then features a conversation between the Crown Prince and his mother. "I saw how that child looks at Wang Rin. I saw how Wang Rin looks at her," Princess Wonseong informs her son. But the male protagonist believes that they are just friends. "There is no way Rin would see the person in my heart as a woman," he says.
