Like Spring Scattering on a Snowy Mountain

[This is a romance set in “comfortable captivity,” where Bihyeon ends up becoming the Black Dragon’s hostage in her friend’s place.] They say the Dragon King of the Northern Sea—who did nothing but demand offerings and swallow them whole—was killed by his own brother. After taking on a job, her friend Dalgi went to the Northern Sea Dragon Palace as a substitute offering… but no news has come from her. To save Dalgi, Bihyeon secretly puts on an invisibility hat and sneaks into the dragon palace, but… —Read it out loud. —“I’ll be borrowing the treasures for a short while. In three months, I’ll return them. Until then, don’t look for me…” —Read it out loud, all the way to the end. —“If you chase me, I’ll sell them all…” As if being caught right away weren’t unfair enough, it turns out Dalgi stole absolutely every treasure in the Northern Sea Dragon Palace and ran off! And so, Bihyeon becomes the hostage of the Black Dragon, Muwon, and is imprisoned in his palace. She’s actually enjoying a captivity that’s far more comfortable than expected, but… why is it that every time she sees Muwon…? That embarrassingly vivid prophetic dream—where she was making love with an unknown man—keeps coming back to her. Could the man in that dream… really have been Muwon?
