Yona of the Dawn is a fantasy romance manga series by Mizuho Kusanagi, published in English by VIZ Media under the Shojo Beat imprint, blending royal drama, adventure, and character-driven storytelling.
Princess Yona lives a sheltered life—until a sudden betrayal forces her to flee her kingdom and confront the world beyond the palace walls. Accompanied by her loyal bodyguard Hak, she begins a journey to survive, grow stronger, and reclaim her place in a changing world. What starts as a story of loss becomes one of resilience, found family, and slow-burn romance, with Yona’s transformation at its heart.
