Akatsuki No Yona ( Dawn Of The Yona) is a story about Yona, a sole princess of the kingdom Kouka who as to escape from the kingdom to protect herself, when she sees her childhood friend and love interest Soo-won killing her father for the throne.

She has two best friends Chiaki Mamiya and Kousuke Tsuda. I love their rela
