The Full Moon Portal
Episode 34
Yeon Jin wanted to call Yoo Ra, but he had to think 2 times. Fearing, he bullies Yoo Ra. Taking out his phone and staring at his phone screen, his finger had already reached the call button. “Come on Yeon Jin... Dare to dare, this time you miss her, dare.” Yeon Jin grumbled, now he was confused to call or send a message. “Alright, I have decided,” Yeon Jin decided to send a short message, and thought back to it like calling would disturb Yoo Ra.
“How are you? How fun was it there? If you have time, reply to this message yes.”
That was all Yeon Jin could send, he was confused as to what else to type.
At around 9pm, Yeon Jin was looking forward to being anxious by staring at her phone screen for hours just to get a reply from Yoo Ra.

conditions on Jeju Island
Yoo Ra is still wandering around the beach area. Alone, and so do his friends. At the beginning of his duties in the village, Yoo Ra always finished first rather than his friends, and at this time also he was done with his duties. Yoo Ra wants to find Moo Ra, but Moo Ra is busy with his interview at one of the fishermen. So he decided to wait for her at the pier by watching the high seas and the sky full of stars.
On the other hand, from the afternoon until now Jae Won is still busy with tour guides who are discussing the contribution of further cooperation between the campus and tour and travel service providers. Jae Won wants to spend more time with Yoo Ra on this beach, unfortunately his one thousand wishes are just a fantasy. And it's late, Jae Won thinks that Yoo Ra has returned to the inn. So he decided to return to the inn and wait for her there.
Yoo Ra is still enjoying the cold of the night, seeing the souvenir merchant he so wants to buy it. Yoo Ra approached one of the souvenir sellers there, a man in his 40s who was waiting for buyers to come buy souvenirs in his shop.
(Yoo Ra)
“Excuse me, how much does this cost?”
(Seller)
“That's 10,000 won (friendly).”
(Yoo Ra)
“It is very beautiful, ahjussi himself who made it?”
(Seller)
“Hehe... The one agassi held, it was from the shell of a shell. Agassi see, the color of the shell is pink, rarely find shells like this. About 2 weeks ago I made this, the wind chimes are small, I adjust the price.”
(Yoo Ra)
“Very beautiful ahjussi (holding bells). Why are there only 2 bells that have 2 shells of this pink shell?”
(Seller)
“As I said earlier, I found this one shell and there are only 2 sides of the shell. In this one special wind bell there are 1 pink shell and 5 white shell, and there are 7 bell pipes.”
(Yoo Ra)
“Isn't this supposed to be expensive? Ahjussi too give a cheap price to the buyers here.”
(Seller)
“You're right agassi, but I don't think too much about the price. This bell I made myself, and I also want to share happiness with others, what's wrong with me giving a low price right?”
(Yoo Ra)
“Gosh... May ahjussi always be given good luck. I took 2 of these pink shells yes.”
(Seller)
“Alright, thank you. I heard the pink-shelled clam has a myth, but I don't know what the myth is.”
(Yoo Ra)
“So yes.”
A woman came, and she was the wife of the seller. And how shocked she was to see Yoo Ra there buying wind chimes at her husband's shop.
“Honey, who is he?” Whisper the woman.
“Oh.. she's a buyer.” Answer the seller.
“Isn't he similar to the painting in the temple?”
“Really? Where's your phone, we used to take pictures there, right?”
The seller and his wife saw their photo while taking a picture together with the painting at the temple. They were wide-eyed and surprised that the painting resembled the girl before them. And comparing the two.
“Woah (shocked)...At... Her... Don't-don't, is he cloning?” A silly question came from the seller's mouth.
“Do not talk carelessly, maybe this is his reincarnation.”
(Seller)
“Agassi, si...si...what's your name?”
(Yoo Ra)
“What is ahjussi?”
(Seller Wife)
“Agassi, agassi descendant of empress Tae Yang?”
(Yoo Ra)
“Why? (rough)”
(Seller Wife)
“Why are you so similar? (shock and nervous)”
(Yoo Ra)
“Finish who? (pretend not to know)”
(Seller)
“You are the descendant of His Highness Tae Yang to what?”
(Yoo Ra)
(Seller)
“That's a historical legend here, in this area the story is always read when there is a certain ceremony.”
(Yoo Ra)
“I haven't heard that before, can you guys tell me the story?”
Whoa... A very good time, it was unexpected that Yoo Ra got something interesting here. The seller's wife told him.

Empress Tae Yang was a very tough and respected female figure among state officials at the time, she married King Tae Yang because of urgent and threats. He was forced to come back to the kingdom of King Tae Yang, the King has feelings for him and vice versa.
Before King Tae Yang married her, the King already had several concubines, and at that time the position of the empress was not held and was still empty to find the right person to be made empress. Even his concubines did not acknowledge his existence, so every day he always looked for trouble so that Empress Tae Yang was expelled from the palace. They were all envious, because the woman was so competent that she was even adored, including the King.
Having held the second highest status in the kingdom, being the Queen and the King's only beloved wife, she continued to experience great trials until her life was almost taken by them. Usually the seizure of power only occurs to the king, this time different, the seizure of power occurs in the position of the Empress.
In the end he was able to survive and expel all the concubines of the King who had judged him, and reached the peak of his glory. And that's because of the power of their love. Unfortunately, the queen Tae Yang died before giving offspring, the cause was the King's suspicion to the queen who was considered cheating behind him, the King gave a very heavy punishment and in the end the Empress died because of it.
Until the moment of her death, she maintained her pride as a holy woman and was loyal to her husband. After Empress Tae Yang's death, the next 2 days of the investigation of the case bore fruit, and it turned out that the empress was innocent and only a victim.
Frustrated by this, the King executed all those involved in the conspiracy and slaughtered them one by one in order to give his consort peace, then built a monument of greatness. Because of his deep guilt and wasting feelings, the King committed suicide before the empress's grave and promised to look for her again when she was reincarnated, so that true love cannot be disturbed or seized by another soul.
Until now the story has not spread widely, and the death of the king and queen is still hidden. This story is both a tragic and mysterious story.

(Seller Wife)
“That's the story, until now we kept wondering if they had reincarnated or not. After seeing agassi, we thought the story really existed.”
(Yoo Ra)
“But the story is a sad story, how can such a soul be reincarnated again, he is just a sinner.”
(Seller Wife)
“It was the story in the first book, we have not heard the story from the second book. There are two sacred books in Tae Yang temple that tells the story of King and Queen Tae Yang, he said the second is the content of their destiny after reincarnation.”
(Yoo Ra)
“If the second book is recorded as such, it means that reincarnation has already happened. The one who recorded such a thing was only a historian, and could not be contrived.”
(Seller)
“Not so agassi, Monk says that the second book is a prophecy. My wife and I have never heard of the nun reading the second book, because it is not readable before finding the reincarnation of Empress Tae Yang.”
(Yoo Ra)
“So apparently, well thank you for the story. Here's the money.”
(Seller)
“Thank you, here's the change.”
(Yoo Ra)
“No need ahjussi. Think of it as a reward for telling the historical story of this place.”
(Seller Wife)
“Thank you. May God protect agassi.”
(Yoo Ra)
“I say goodbye first.”
(Seller Wife)
“Wait for agassi. Agassi bought these pink seashell wind chimes right, the myth is that these clams are symbols of lovers. My husband only got this clam once every 1 year and there was only 1 clam, so we made 2 bells out of 1 clam.”
(Yoo Ra)
“Oh like that, even so this is a myth right.”
(Seller Wife)
“Iya anyway, but hopefully agassi meets a matching partner with agassi.”
(Yoo Ra)
“Hopefully the prayer you give can be realized, I'll excuse you first. See you (waving).”
The couple was still stunned with Yoo Ra's face exactly the same as Queen Tae Yang's painting. They still don't believe this.
Not only them, the swordsmen there were also astonished by the presence of Yoo Ra. And become a topic of conversation.
“He's the queen's descendant?”
“Entaihah, instead of the same face?”
“Already already, in this world everyone has 7 twins. Maybe that girl is one of them.”
“Isn't she pretty once?”
“I'm sure that the girl is one of his descendants.”
“How possible, the queen died hundreds of years ago and has no children at all.”
“It is true that he is his reincarnation?”
“You believe such a thing? It's modern times. Clear your minds.”
