Furthermore, this speculation comes after he says that he failed to protect his family and also deliberately tried to postpone Lee Hwi’s marriage. Although very unlikely this will make fans and Da Mi very happy because it will mean that she had a parent looking after her all this time. Additionally, Da Mi’s mother died soon after the death of the real Crown Prince due to an incurable disease.
Prince Lee Hyun’s Secret
Apart from her mother, only Eunuch Hong played by the cute Go Kyu Pil (Lovers Of The Red Sky) and Court Lady Kim played by Baek Hyun Joo ( Sell Your Haunted House) are the only ones who know her true identity. That’s what everyone thinks. Little do they know that the handsome Prince Jaehyun or Lee Hyun find out about her identity when they were kids. Not only did he keep her secret safe but also protected her throughout. Be it a mischievous Chief Eunuch from the Ming dynasty or an out-of-line family member, you will have to get through Lee Hyun before getting to Da Mi.
