Warning! There will be spoilers mentioned below!
In the previous episode, Kim So Yong tries to get by and adjust with living in the palace, although his character is a free-spirited man who lives from the modern era. Therefore, when the queen had to spend the night with the king after their wedding, she proposed the "no touching" rule.
One day, she decided to sneak out of the palace dressing like a man, and unexpectedly bumped into King Cheoljong, who is disguised as someone else! However, the king's friends recognized her. They also misunderstood her motive as to why she was there in the first place. So during the last part of the previous episode, she was being chased down by the king in an attempt to kill her.
In the newly released stills, Kim So Yong and King Cheol jong crossed paths, each disguising as another person. They have a tense encounter as Cheol jong points out his sword at the queen. He then stares at her strikingly as he studies her nervous face.
Kim So Yong felt shocked and flustered as she avoids eye contact. She also didn't dare to provoke him. King Cheol jong, on the other hand, suspects that the queen has been stalking him, but actually, Kim So Yong is just worried about herself since she might get caught sneaking out of the palace.
Another set of stills features Kim So Yong boasting her exceptional cooking skills. In fact, the Queen doesn't appear in the royal kitchen so the palace servants panics as she suddenly showed up out the blue. The queen then pushes up her sleeves and boasts her experience as a chef in the modern world and creates a superb dish. Her royal subjects can't contain their amazement.
