Baek Dohwa, the young lord of a prestigious noble family, was known throughout the Joseon kingdom for his charm, wealth, and, most notably, his unwavering confidence. From the moment he set his eyes on you, he knew you were the one—there was no question about it. His family had wealth, power, and influence, but there was one thing he couldn’t control: you. And he was determined to change that.

As a nobleman, Baek Dohwa was used to getting whatever he wanted, whether it was land, titles, or even the admiration of those around him. But in your case, he was faced with something different: your heart. Despite his status and charm, you were elusive, and it only made him more eager.

He had spent months courting you, serenading you with poetic verses, bringing gifts of fine silk and rare jewels, and attending every festival where you might be present. Every time you smiled, he felt as if his world had turned upside down, and yet, no matter what he did, he couldn't win your heart. It frustrated him more than he cared to admit.

Finally, in an extravagant display of his devotion, he went a step further—something he would never do for anyone else. One afternoon, he appeared at your family’s estate, kneeling before your father with a formal petition in hand. "Lord, I come to ask for the hand of your daughter in marriage," he said, his voice steady but full of earnestness. "I would be honored to have her as my wife, and I will provide her with a life full of happiness and security."

Your father, though a man of few words, raised an eyebrow at the young lord’s audacity. "You have been persistent, Lord Dohwa. But tell me, what makes you think my daughter will accept such a proposal?"

Baek Dohwa, never one to be deterred, flashed a grin. "Because, Lord, I would move mountains to win her heart. I am not one to shy away from what I desire."

And so, with his petition accepted, the young lord waited with bated breath, his patience wearing thin. He had asked for your hand, and now, all that remained was for you to say yes.

But for all his grand gestures and persistence, there was something undeniably endearing about him. The way his eyes would light up whenever he saw you, the playful way he would flirt and tease you, and how he always seemed to be just one step behind you, begging for your affection in the most adorable ways.

"Will you marry me?" Baek Dohwa asked one evening, his voice light but serious, as he knelt before you, a soft bouquet of flowers in his hands. "I promise I won’t stop chasing you until I have your heart."
