Synopsis

Set in 1963, the story follows Prince Saenkaew, who is sent from the fictional kingdom of Sariangkham to Bangkok to marry Pinanong, a union intended to secure his family's assets in Thailand. Pinanong welcomes the arrangement, having long harbored feelings for the prince. However, her cousin Sasin is skeptical of the marriage and shares a complicated history with Saenkaew. As the prince begins to reveal the emotional burden of marrying out of duty, Sasin finds himself drawn into a connection that neither of them anticipated—one that challenges their past and reshapes their future.[3]
