Title: The Blue Phoenix Dream - Chapter 1 Scene: In the courtyard of a grand Korean noble house during sunset, an elderly slave woman named Boknyeo kneels on the ground, doing laundry with a wooden mallet. The sky is blood-red with crimson sunset over Inwangsan mountain. Her back is bent from decades of labor, hands gnarled and twisted. Suddenly, the young noble lady bursts out from the inner house, barefoot and disheveled, her silk dress dirty, hair wild. She grabs Boknyeo's shoulders in terror, eyes filled with fear. The lady forces Boknyeo to buy her cursed dream - a dream of blue flames. Boknyeo reluctantly pulls out a worn copper ring from her clothes, her mother's only keepsake, and hands it over with trembling hands. The lady snatches it and disappears, leaving Boknyeo alone in the darkening courtyard, holding nothing but an invisible curse. That night, Boknyeo falls asleep in fear. But instead of horror, warm blue flames appear, gentle and fragrant. From the flames, a magnificent blue phoenix emerges, its feathers glowing like jewels. The cursed dream transforms into a blessed destiny as the phoenix enters her heart.
