Hyun Woo Seok as Kang Ha Jun

The moment I heard the gwi-mae say that you would die tonight, I moved before I could even think. You are the only one in this palace I can trust and rely on. So… I will not stand by and let you die. I will save you even if it means sacrificing my life. Thank you for protecting me all this time.

I should send you out of the palace at once, but I cannot for now. You are the only one I can rely on.

If Prince Yeongan shows any signs of waking, let it see your blood. The window will be brief.

You carry a great deal of Yang energy A rare constitution, indeed. 

I will not be hurt again. I will not be abandoned again. I know how every relationship ends. I’m just protecting myself. So that I won’t be swayed.  Does that mean you were swayed at least? Yes.
