GOONG by Park SoHee

Monarchy ended long ago in Korea, but there are still other countries with Kings, Queens, princes and princesses. What if Korea had continued monarchism? What if all the beautiful palaces which are now only historical relics were actually filled with people? What if the glamorous royal family still maintained the palace customs? Welcome to a world where Korea still has the royal family living their lives! But for Che-Kyung, a high-school girl, this is a tragedy, since she has to marry the prince who turns out to be a total jerk!

GOONG Volume 1
by Park SoHee

Monarchy ended long ago in Korea, but there are still other countries with Kings, Queens, princes and princesses. What if Korea had continued monarchism? What if all the beautiful palaces which are now only historical relics were actually filled with people?! What if the glamorous royal family still maintained the palace customs?! Welcome to a world where Korea still has the royal family living their lives! Only for one high school girl, Che-Kyung, is this a tragedy, since she has to marry the prince who apparently is a total jerk!

GOONG Volume 2
by Park SoHee

With the wedding ceremony complete, Chae-Kyung and Prince Shin are finally newlyweds…but now they have to spend their first night together?! And as she tries to get accustomed to life as a princess, homesick Chae-Kyung finds no comfort in her haughty husband, who seems determined to antagonize her at every turn. Will the crown prince’s attitude ever change? Is the dream of marital bliss doomed to be a nightmarish marital blunder?!

GOONG Volume 3
by Park SoHee

Chae-Kyung and Shin return to their separate quarters at the palace, but the crown princess can’t shake the feelings aroused by her new husband. Try as she might, there’s no denying it — she’s completely fallen for him! When Chae-Kyung lets a confession slips, she braces herself for the prince’s rejection. Instead, he doesn’t even acknowledge her! Though the suspense is killing Chae-Kyung, does she really want to know what Shin has to say?

GOONG Volume 4
by Park SoHee

After the king grants his late brother a posthumous coronation, the status quo shifts dramatically as his widow, Yul’s mother, gains power in the palace. And she definitely has it out for Shin and Chae-Kyung! When the newlyweds are invited to go abroad, it seems like they might be on the road to romance…but with Yul’s mammy dearest determined to make the couple miserable, will they even get off the ground?

GOONG Volume 5
by Park SoHee

While Shin visits the royal family in England, Chae-Kyung is left behind in Korea with the recently-appointed daebi, who’s doing her best to make the crown princess as miserable as possible. Lonelier than she’s felt since her arrival at the palace, Chae-Kyung finds comfort in her growing friendship with Yul. But Shin’s having problems of his own in England, where the far-reaching treachery of the daebi sparks scandal. Now in the public eye more than ever, how will the reunited couple fare under constant scrutiny from a gossip-hungry press?

GOONG Volume 6
by Park SoHee

Hoping to clear the air between Shin and Chae-Kyung, the ladies of the court pressure the young couple to get more intimate. But even a night together may not be enough to push the two close. Amid lingering suspicions of Shin’s involvement with Hyo-Rin, Yul takes the offensive in claiming not only his right to the throne, but to Chae-Kyung’s heart as well…Will her commitment to her husband and her duty as crown princess prevail?

GOONG Volume 7
by Park SoHee

The entire palace is in an uproar after a fire breaks out in Daebi-Mama’s quarters. Is it an accident or is it arson? Chae-Kyung doesn’t want to think Shin is involved, but when she slips into Shin’s room, she accidentally overhears scraps of a conversation that sound an awful lot like a confession. The investigation almost prevents them from going on their high school trip, but with a little negotiating they’re on their way to a cozy, out-of-the-way hotel where the Queen Mother has made some…special arrangements: The two of them have to share a room! Things are already awkward, but Chae-Kyung can’t shake her suspicions, especially when Shin’s behavior seems so different from usual…

GOONG Volume 8
by Park SoHee

Crown Prince Shin and Crown Princess Chae-Kyung are the picture of happiness as they celebrate their first wedding anniversary in a lavish, high-profile public display…but all is not well behind those loving gazes and wide smiles. With the tension between her and Shin growing, Chae-Kyung can’t help but look for a way out of her situation. But when the Queen, who is with child, decides to have Chae-Kyung be her proxy, the pressure is on for Chae-Kyung to keep herself and her marriage together. Will she look to Yul for guidance, even if his advice could spell disaster for the royal family that Chae-Kyung is growing to love?

GOONG Volume 9
by Park SoHee

Waging war from the shadows, Yul and his mother, the Daebi, continue to turn the screws on Korea’s royals — and the first casualties in their sights are Crown Prince Shin and Chae-Kyung! Convinced by Yul that an upcoming television interview will be her last chance to talk divorce, Chae-Kyung is distracted from the larger picture by her feelings for her husband and the thought of freedom from oppressive palace life. Meanwhile, as the Daebi fans the flames of suspicion that surround Shin in the royal arson case, the future king finds himself on the verge of losing his once-guaranteed position. But is a royal pregnancy the answer to saving the crown prince’s sullied reputation?! The Queen Mother seems to think so, as she packs off Chae-Kyung and Shin to an isolated palace to consummate their marriage. However, with their relationship running equally cold and hot these days, divorce and romance seem to be a toss-up for the crown princess! Which will Chae-Kyung choose?!
