Royal Twinkle: The king and queen of Corea have a sweet secret, don’t they?

Preparations for Queens Day are almost finished

The weather is simply splendid-- the summer temperatures have gone down giving way to the first cool and crisp days and nights of autumn in Corea

This author has been informed that Queens Day will have very few photographs

The entire festival will have very little media coverage. It’s meant to be enjoyed by the people of Corea, and only the people of Corea

As such, there will be photos, but they will be exclusively distributed to local press, for local release only, for the enjoyment of Coreans

Likewise, broadcast will be local and strictly guarded from piracy

Worry not, dear readers, this author will see what she can do, with sanction from the Royal Public Affairs Office, of course

I am very much in love with the Royal Public Affairs Office. They invited my team to enter the palace to witness some of the preparations. We were there early in the morning.

The palace is a sensory explosion right now. It was overwhelming.

But let’s be honest, none of you are interested in the million flowers rolling in by the truckloads, the mountains of food ingredients in hundreds of freezer trucks, or the pyrotechnics already starting to boom sporadically in the skies of Busan.

No, we don’t care about that. All we want to hear about is the king and queen.

While in the palace grounds, my team and I were lucky enough to catch glimpses of them.

Here’s the king taking a walk looking very… happy.

We asked where the queen was. From Mr Jang’s interview, we know she and the king take long walks together. We were told the queen starts her day helping with the preparations in the late afternoon.

But wasn’t she a morning person? The palace staff we were talking to smiled politely and left. Well.

So we waited until the afternoon. And huzzah! We came upon the queen in one of the great big marquees in the grounds. We were told she was approving the gifts for her dinner’s 999 lucky children here.

My photographer was able to snap this lucky shot before Mr Jang caught my eye and I quickly pulled my team out of there.

She looks so beautiful. I’m sure my dear readers know how much I admire the queen.

And is this author only delusional or do Their Majesties look incandescently happy?

They’ve always been happy. But there’s something different right now. Dear reader, you know all the hints and crumbs we’ve been given. We’re just waiting for the official word. And trust me, I’m with you in your impatience!

Before our day at the palace ended, we ran into the king. Don’t believe how dignified that sounds here on paper, this author was squealing inside.

His Majesty remembers this humble author as the one who interviewed him, and he was very gracious in his greetings.

We asked him if he had recovered from the queen’s sudden trip to Seoul and His Majesty laughed such a delicious laugh that this author felt her ovaries imitate the fireworks in the sky.

We asked if he had any news to tell us, and His Majesty only laughed again and wished us a good night. Well.

And then his wish for us came true. It was our lucky, lucky night, wasn’t it, because we also ran into the queen.

Her Majesty seemed to be having a breather, with only Mr Jang visible nearby. (Not that we thought for a second that it was only Mr Jang around us). We didn’t disturb the queen, but she greeted us herself-- oh these sweet, sweet royals-- and asked if we’d enjoyed the day.

Oh yes, we had.

This author asked her politely if she was in good health, and if she had her own supply of Seoul chicken by now?

That made Her Majesty blush and giggle. She bid us a good night and said she hoped we’d come to the festival.

Absolutely nothing can keep this author away!

As we climbed into our van, we saw the king arrive and steer the queen toward the palace.

The Royal Guard closed in around them at a close distance so we didn’t bother to take photos, but the sweetness of the king taking the queen’s hand and putting both their hands in his coat pocket would sustain me while we wait for the official announcement of what’s behind that twinkle in their eyes.
