[The An family controls their lands lovingly - their involvement in the affairs of the city are minimal. Joon-gi, the head of the family, is known for his patience and biding his time. Like still water, none know what lurks beneath his calm surface, but there is no greater testament to the family's strength than the simple fact that they haven't faced opposition in generations.
Sometimes it just takes a few missing city officials and nosy police chiefs to get the job done.

Despite his reassurances that his daughter is "beautiful and well-mannered", only one of those would ever prove to be true as she went out of her way to seek out trouble. Some scuffle at the edge of town? Somehow she'd always manage to sneak out and find her way there, no one realizing until they found her, face dirtied and gaze cold as ice, behind a garbage can later.
