Lee Sung Jae burned the royal document in claims.
On the 2nd episode of KBS 2TV Wednesday/Thursday drama "The King's Face" broadcast on November 20th, Seonjo (played by Lee Sung Jae) got rid of the royal document.
On this day, Seonjo heard that the faction that Jung Yeo Rip (played by Choi Chul Ho) led was being invaded by foreign forces. Seonjo was not happy with the fact that Jung Yeo Rip had successfully rescued his own people. At that time, the internal advisor Kang Jin Yeol (played by Kim Bang Won) reported that the person who had tried to steal the royal document was led by Jung Yeo Rip.
Seonjo was incredibly angry hearing that Jung Yeo Rip was trying to steal such an integral document. When he was younger, the king had heard that he did not have the fortune to be a king and had suffered from nightmares. Because of this, to the Seonjo, this royal document was a thorn in the eye.
Seonjo said that he would go ahead and get rid of the royal document. As the internal advisor started to stop Seonjo, he said, "I really wanted to get rid of it as one of the first things to accomplish as king. However, I left it because I just wanted to show that the fortuneteller was wrong. I just couldn't leave the seeds of treason and rebels there" as he showed a sharp look.
