Playing Ep 18

Summary:

Once there was a royal queen who experienced a peculiar childbirth resulting in a shell instead of a traditional newborn. A cunning concubine saw this as an opportunity and managed to convince the king to banish the queen and the enigmatic shell from the kingdom. As fate would have it, five years passed, and within the shell emerged a young prince, igniting whispers throughout the land.

These rumors reached the conniving concubine, who felt threatened by the rightful heir's existence. In a ruthless attempt to secure her power, she dispatched soldiers to eliminate the innocent child. The soldiers captured the prince, named Pra Sung, and cast him into the unforgiving sea. However, fortune favored the young prince, as he was saved by a benevolent Dragon King and subsequently raised by a Giant Queen.

Growing up in an extraordinary realm, the prince one day came to the realization that his caregiver was of giant descent, sparking fear of becoming prey to her kin. Motivated by his fear, he fled the giant abode, armed with a magical black mask that could conceal his appealing appearance beneath the guise of a repulsive jungle man.

During his escape, the prince stumbled upon a realm ruled by a king with seven daughters, each in search of a suitor. The fairest and youngest princess possessed the discerning eye to perceive the handsome prince hidden within the disguised facade of the jungle man. Moved by his true self, she chose him as her betrothed.

With a newfound companion by his side, the prince aspired to reconnect with his biological mother and to liberate the kingdom of his origin, setting the stage for a tale of bravery, identity, and the quest for belonging.
