About This DVD
The three main characters of this drama pose the question of what a "righteous
life" is in the era of political and social turmoil of the late Joseon Dynasty,
when progressive thinking and the Confucian social reform movement "Silhak"
began penetrating into Joseon from the Qing Dynasty. It was also a period when
the 400-year Joseon Dynasty was gradually losing ground, unable to respond to
external and internal changes in the wake of the Japanese invasion of the 16th
century and the Manchu War, resulting in clashes between the king, who dreamed
of restoring his authority through powerful reforms aimed at improving the lives
of grass-root people, and conservative political forces, which felt threatened
by the self-justified royal authority.
