In Love Song for Illusion episode 6, Park Ji-Hoon’s Ak-Hee is furious when Sajo Hyeon returns to his senses. After coming out of the water, Kyera explains everything to the crown prince. When she begins to leave, he stops her, claiming that he still thinks she is not innocent, referring to the king’s murder.
On the other hand, Sajo Hyeon feels at ease when she holds him tight, and he gets chills as Ak-Hee tries to summon him. They change into commoners’ clothes and shelter in a villager’s house. The two share some heart-fluttering moments as they stay together in a room. The next day, Sajo Hyeon decides to let Kyera go. While bidding farewell, he asks her if she will rejoin the Wind Knives (a rebellion group). She mentions she will not let Hwang Hee’s Sajo Yung become the new king.
For context, Sajo Yung is an illegitimate child of the late king and half-brother of the crown prince. He is part of Wind Knives and has manipulated the villagers against Sajo Hyeon. Due to the manipulation, a group of villagers form a rebel group to kill Sajo Hyeon and let Sajo Yung take over the throne. Hong Ye-Ji‘s Kyera finds out about it after the crown prince leaves.
While Sajo Hyeon heads back to the palace, a big commotion happens. The royal guards beat up innocent people, and a few commoners look for the crown prince. When a man gets hold of Sajo Hyeon, he tries to stab him, but Kyera appears at the right time. She and a few Wind Knives men save him.
