Hearts beat rapidly as they waited for the answer.

“Did.. You say switched?” Her eyes were intense. She slammed both of her hands on the table, startling the two youngsters. “It’s my first time hearing this in the 20th century.” She shook her head and stared at them in disbelief.

“You mean.. This mishap thing occurred before?” Jenny asked her with her hands trembling hard on her lap.

“Do you want to hear a story?” Lady Yzmaniac smiled in a weird way.

Lady Yzmaniac sighed and started to tell them, the story they never heard in their entire life before, “Not long ago, where Joseon Dynasty had been ruled by a wise king.
