If he gets the girl, I would not be only majorly upset but shocked because it's like the law of kdramas. Secondary male never gets the girl :D
I actually do have more detailed opinions why I think GD/YN make a better match than YN/Prince even aside from kdrama law. Leaving aside spoilery stuff and the fact that YN's preference is GD, it'a the simple matter of social matching. YN might have come from the most aristocratic family ever to exist, or what not, but not only she has no idea about it, she grew up in the gutter. Her behavior and her whole mentality is basically the same as someone in GD's class (well, she is a very lowclass freewoman and he's a slave, but it's basically the same). And at 20 (or however old she is), her personality is set. I can never see her fitting in a proper, formal aristocratic structure (whether as rediscovered heiress or Mrs prince when he ascends the throne). I mean, she makes Chae-Gyung seem like Lady Formality, and that was in modern day, not in stuffy hierarchical period setting.
I might be the only one btw, but the whole Prince-YN-GD triangle is a little reminescent of the My Girl triangle, only here the girl with unsteady past and conning and hand-to-mouth existence likes the free-spirited wacky one, not the serious one.
