The Emperor’s Record

The emperor’s twenty-ninth son, Hyeok Yeonga, is childhood friends with Han Jeyeon, a distant relative from his maternal clan and the Duke of Pae nation.

A fierce struggle for the throne is unfolding behind the scenes, but Yeonga has no desire to become emperor and only wants to live a peaceful life as a prince.

However, Jeyeon refuses to acknowledge any emperor other than Yeonga and forces him to take the throne. Unable to bear seeing Jeyeon go so far as to commit murder just to make him emperor, Yeonga takes his own life in front of Jeyeon.

But Yeonga, who should definitely have died, opens his eyes safely in his own house, and upon waking discovers that he has returned to himself at nineteen, keeping all the memories from before his death....
