Скачать или смотреть The Last Prince of Korea Died In Exile Without A Throne or An Heir

When you think “prince,” you probably picture castles, crowns, and Disney endings.
Yi Gu’s life was nothing like that.
Korea’s last heir grew up in exile, went to school in the U.S., and carried a royal title that didn’t mean much anymore. His marriage wasn’t accepted. His true partner barely shows up in history.
It’s not the story of a crown. It’s the story of someone who lost almost everything, except the people who loved him.
👉️ Wild to think how different real “royal” lives can be from the fairytales we imagine.
