Deep within Xi'an, the bustling capital of the Great Shun Dynasty, a mystical rumor draws the desperate and the curious alike. It is said that at a humble apothecary, a nameless 'holy maiden' possesses a voice so divine it can enter dreams and make the impossible come true. Among those drawn to the legend is Prince Sa Heonyoung, a royal shrouded in darkness. Known to the world as a terrifying 'Goblin' hidden behind a red mask, he lives in the shadows of his twin brother, the future Emperor, cursed by a bloody reputation and a life of isolation.
Skeptical yet compelled, Heonyoung visits the maiden in disguise, intending only to verify the rumors. However, the moment her sorrowful song reaches his ears, it pierces through his defenses, soothing a madness he has long suppressed. Overcome by an inexplicable yearning that feels like a fever, the Prince realizes he cannot let her go. He offers the destitute woman a way out of her abusive life with a chilling yet tempting question: “Would you like to be the bride of a goblin?”
For the maiden, who has lived without a name or hope, existing only for the sake of avenging her mother, the Goblin's hand is a lifeline. As she enters the palace as the wife of the empire's most feared man, she discovers that the monster behind the mask is just as wounded as she is. A Kind Goblin's Bird is a poignant historical romance about two outcasts who, amidst political intrigue and personal demons, find that they are the only ones who can truly save each other.
