### Summary
Following his recent political purge and public health initiatives on hygiene, Grand Prince Jin-seong continues to introduce anachronistic concepts to Joseon society, this time focusing on diet. He has begun teaching the people how to prepare fried foods, most notably fried chicken, presenting it as a new, "nutritious" option. This culinary development, while seemingly lighthearted and even comedic, adds to his growing list of accomplishments and public influence. This increasing popularity is perceived as an ominous development, as his successful efforts to improve the nation inadvertently position him as a more capable leader. Despite his stated desire to avoid the throne, Jin-seong's proactive involvement in state and public affairs continues to push him into a role of prominence, escalating the underlying political tension with his volatile brother, King Yeonsan, and the manipulative Concubine Noksu.
