What a coward move of King II. Stabbing someone from the back instead of confronting them honestly...
Soowon has always been the most interesting character and continue to be it. Such a wisdom cant exist only in a fiction indeed. He actually gave the coward a chance to save his skin and be a good ruler but the poor fanatic let his gard down, letting his people rooting in poverty, drugs and corruption while waiting for a savior. He didnt even bother to teach his daughter properly... sigh
This is all painting Hak in a bad light. While Yona is at least trying to understand what is going on and Soowon acting like an actual ruler, Hak is just being a roaming fool in love refusing to be unbiased and putting a blind faith in an other morally grey character. How brainless ...
Anyway thanks for the translation!
