Added DiffLines:

* AbusiveParents: Both of his parents treat him badly. His father publicly mocks him and calls him a half-breed to his face. His mother is willing to physically hurt him and alienate him from his best friend, while claiming she's doing it for his own good.



* HatesTheirParent: He hates his father most of all, but he isn't always fond of his mother either.



----
* AbusiveParents [=/=] ArchnemesisDad: He publicly mocks Won and calls him a half-breed to his face.
* FalseRapeAccusation: A by-proxy example. He wants to depose Won, so he and Song In claim Won tried to rape San.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Though [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chungnyeol_of_Goryeo the real Chungnyeol]] probably didn't publicly humiliate Won like this version of him does.
* {{Jerkass}}: Publicly mocks and insults his own wife and son, and he cares nothing for the common people or their opinion of him. He resents Won because his son is the grandson of Kublai Khan, which means -- to him -- Won's status is technically higher than his own, so he deliberately makes Won miserable.
* SadisticChoice: Tells Won that he'll kill either San or Rin, and Won has to choose who dies.
* TantrumThrowing: He throws ornaments around when he has an argument with Won.

* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Like her husband and son, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Jeguk she really existed]].
* KnightTemplarParent: Everything she does is for Won. Unfortunately, her actions often hurt him as much as other people.

* FailedASpotCheck: Somehow he doesn't see through San's PaperThinDisguise.



* LikeBrotherAndSister: He sees Dan as his sister, and tells her this even when he's offering to marry her.
* LiterallyFallingInLove: San falls on top of him after they climb up the cliff.
* LoveTriangle: Between him, San, and Rin.
* MixedAncestry: His father is the King of Goryeo (Korea) and his mother is a Yuan (Mongolian) princess. [[{{Jerkass}} His father]] calls him a half-breed to his face and tells him his blood is mixed with barbarians'.
* PartingWordsRegret: His last words to his mother were telling her to leave the palace if she didn't like how things were going. He regrets this after she dies.

----
* DamselOutOfDistress: She threatens Wang Jeon with a hairpin, ties him up, and leaves him in the carriage while she escapes.
* FalseRapeAccusation: Played with, since she isn't the one who makes the accusation. The king wants to depose Won, so he and Song In claim Won tried to rape San. San tries to say it's a lie, but no one listens to her.
* LiterallyFallingInLove: She falls on top of Won after they climb up the cliff.
* LoveTriangle: Won and Rin both love her. [[spoiler: She falls in love with Rin.]]
* MissingMum: Her mother is murdered early in the series.
* PaperThinDisguise: Her disguise is a veil that only covers half her face. Amazingly, [[FailedASpotCheck Won doesn't recognise her when she's wearing it.]]
* SheCleansUpNicely: Rin certainly thinks she does when he sees her in her festival outfit.



----
* CoolMask: During the festival he wears a mask designed to look like a butterfly.

* LoveTriangle: Between him, San, and Won.
* TakeMeInstead: Volunteers to be sent to Yuan in his sister's place.
* TerribleArtist: He tries to draw San. The finished drawing looks nothing like her.
