Although Yona cannot forgive Soo-won, she still came across a few moments when she found herself not wanting to kill him, or still caring about him somewhere in her heart. While initially reluctant to kill humans and animals as according to her father's pacifistic ideals, Yona eventually overcame this hesitation against Kum-Ji, the human trafficking crime lord of Port Awa. Yona asked Hak to teach her archery and sword fighting. Losing her father, her castle, her throne, and the man she loved in just one night pushed Yona into vowing to become stronger to protect herself, her allies, and eventually her country during travel in secret. After opening her eyes to the ruined state of Kouka, she acknowledged and took responsibility for her past ignorance. Instead of hiding in the Wind Tribe, she decided to journey around Kouka to find the Dragon warriors mentioned in the exiled priest Ik-soo's prophecy. With Minsoo distracting those in pursuit and his timely self-sacrifice, Yona was able to flee with Hak to the Wind Tribe. After Soo-won staged a coup to seemingly murder the king, Yona, who accidentally witnessed the aftermath of the scene, was forced to flee. From an early age, she secretly harbored romantic affections for Soo-won, but her father opposed her from marrying him. She spent her days with her childhood friends Soo-won and Hak. She was not allowed to touch weapons, nor brought up politically aware, as King Il had never allowed her to see the world outside the castle walls. Sheltered in the Crimson Dragon Castle, Yona was very dependent, spoiled, and naive and kind. According to King Il, Yona's mother, Queen Kashi, was killed by insurgents when she was 6 years old.
