But if you think about it, Doram's family background is from a shaman family lineage right?
It indeed possible if they crossed path in a way or another, think about, if Crown Prince is like a deity being (black tiger) and so does his right-hand man (that bird), and Doram's family is a shaman then they surely met before and i feel like the tiger already choose Doram as his spouse since the very beginning.
Some short of accident happened that made Doram didn't remember when he met Crown Prince or another possibility is Doram met Crown Prince as the "black tiger" not in his human form, and maybe that accident (which we don't know yet) also has something to do with Doram's family labeled as traitor...
Cause it's rare for such family to labeled as a traitor unless that's something going on behind it, his mom or dad (idk which one is the head shaman of the family) must be said or SEE something regarding of the future of the hoseon (the country) or they knew something bad might happened in the future and it's gonna involving his son that's why they commit "treason" in hope that their whole family got eradicated so the "bad future" stop there, or they in fact want Doram to be far away from the Tiger, i was under the assumption that his parents knew that Doram already chosen by the Tiger so the parents did everything they can to protect his son.
Another theory is, maybe Doram has something in himself that attracted some deity, it could be beneficial to them. That's why the Tiger choose him for his own beneficial, at first but ended up really fall in love with him, or could be the opposite, he already fell for him since the very first time they met, but haven't notice it yet so he just choose Doram and though maybe might "beneficial" to him in the future
