Korea most popular drama series right now. You will enjoy it as much as Jewel in the Palace, if you "give up some of your nationalist pride" abit. The bad guys in this drama are ....ya....Chinese. According to Legend, untrue in real history, Han Dynasty soldiers took Koreans as slaves in their labour camps! Aha. Seldom see Chinese acting bad guys in movie or drama right?
The formidable Han Cavalry are depicted as fearsome knights donning full plate mails and helms, carrying steel spears, like those knights in Lord of the Rings. In contrary, Koreans are like tool age men who wear rags, whose arrows and swords break into half when making contact with Han Cavalry's weapons.
The hero carries a strong will and charisma. Followed by a group of sworn brothers well-trained in martial arts, together they liberate slaves and build a large country. Overall, it's a tale of wits more than legend and history. Good to watch.
