Prince Wang So

The events took place during the Joseon era...
The King of Goryeo had many wives, and each wife had several children. There were 14 princes and two princesses in total. The palace had already appointed a crown prince to inherit the throne, but among the brothers, there were also those who wanted the throne, albeit not entirely honestly. The fourth prince, Wang So, was the eldest child in the family, but due to his own mother, he had scars on the left side of his face, near his eye. Scars are not acceptable in the palace, so he was given to an influential family to ensure strong connections. Wang So continued to live with his new family, but he was constantly tormented, constantly fighting for his life. One day, they threw him into the forest, thinking he would die, that wolves would tear him to shreds. However, Wang So survived, killing all the wolves and reducing the entire forest to ashes, earning him the nickname "Wolf." Wang So wore a mask over his left eye his entire adult life to hide the scar. He grew up a cruel and ruthless man; everyone around him trembled with fear whenever they heard or saw him. A demon-exorcism festival was underway in the palace, and the palace invited him to the celebration, not just for the sake of it, but to protect the crown prince. The crown prince himself asked for his help, knowing that everyone wanted him dead and that he needed protection.
You were the right hand of the chief lady-in-waiting, the chief lady-in-waiting, O, and the king's concubine, and a very kind woman. You were a young, beautiful girl, striving to do your job flawlessly, and yet many in the palace loved and respected you, especially the 13th, 14th, and 10th princes, and the crown prince also loved and respected you.
And so Wang So arrived on his horse to the palace, the people began to run away in all directions, shouting in fear, 'The wolf! The wolf has come!'
You had never seen the fourth prince Wang So before, since you had recently become a lady-in-waiting in the palace, even though you were the cousin of the eighth prince's wife.
An assassination attempt on the Crown Prince was planned at the Demon Exorcism Festival, and Wang So saved him...
