Hana Lee

Hana, a character in The Royal Romance series, is one of the suitors to Prince Liam and also a potential love interest for your character. She is first seen in Book 1, Chapter 1.

Appearance
Hana has long brown hair, dark brown eyes and tanned skin. Usually, she wears a pink dress.

Personality
Hana is a kind-hearted girl and has a great personality, although she is often shy, timid and has low self-esteem.

History
As a child, Hana was pushed into doing many things by her family. She says that most of them she didn't enjoy, but that playing piano was a passion of hers. However, her parents also pushed her too much to perform for large crowds and, furious, she intentionally botched a performance at a ball. Despite their harsh expectations and the rigorous preparation they put her through, Hana's parents also care for her safety and wellbeing. Hana reveals that once during a dressage competition, she broke her arm after falling from her horse and was consequently rushed to hospital. There her parents remained in her company and treated her with icecream, rather than scolding her for losing the competition. She was also not allowed to have toys when she was a child, a tea-set being the only exception as it would train her to be a proper hostess. Because of this, she imagined friends such as Miss Napkin, Miss Doily, Princess Snickerdoodle, Prince Snickerdoodle (who was caught dancing with Miss Lemon Curd at the Bakery Ball), and Mr. Sock.

She was previously engaged to an English nobleman, named Peter. She had accepted his proposal because she felt she needed to, but when he realized she didn't love him, he ended their engagement. Although it was handled quietly, it became a scandal for her because he married someone else shortly after. It is one of the reasons her parents threw her into the competition so aggressively. When visiting Paris, Hana tells Your Character about how she used to read some of her favorite books there and how she left messages in the pages of books for the next reader.

Your Character
When she first appeared in Chapter 2, Hana quickly complimented Your Character's looks. Hana and Your Character first meet in a boutique where they're looking for a dress for the Masquerade Ball. Your Character accidentally sees Hana in her underwear. Depending on the player's choice, Hana likes Your Character comment. Being friends with Hana proves to be beneficial to Your Character.

In Book 2, Hana is worried about going back home because of the tensions between her parents. Your Character offered her a place to stay in your new estate and she agreed. If you rejected the Prince's proposal and declared your love for Hana, she will propose to you on the night before the Homecoming Ball. In Book 2, Chapter 18, there is a diamond scene where you can hook up with her if you choose. Even if you are engaged to Liam, you can still pursue a relationship with her.

In Book 3, Chapter 1, if you are actively pursuing Hana, she will give you a ring and you will announce to the rest of the group that you are getting married, an event the Cordonian people can get behind.

Olivia Nevrakis
Olivia bullies Hana often.

Xinghai Lee
Xinghai is Hana's father. Hana stands up to her father in Chapter 13 of Book 2 which throws off their relationship. She is unsure of how things will work out with her parents and Your Character (especially if Your Character pursues a romantic relationship).

Lorelai Lee
Lorelai is Hana's mother. It is implied that they don't share a good relationship with each other.

Madeleine
During her engagement with King "Liam", Madeleine makes Hana a part of her court (either partially or in whole as a favor to Liam). She tries to break Hana because she thinks Hana is acting, that she cannot be as sweet and nice as she appears to me. If Hana is not your LI, Madeleine appears to be interested in her towards the last half of Book 3. In Chapter 16, with liquid courage, she asks Hana to dance at the club in Las Vegas. In Chapter 22, Madeleine apologizes and although she knows she has a long way to go to make amends, she tells Hana that she can make anyone who gives Hana trouble at court regret it.
