Overview

In 1388 A.D., Goryeo General Yi Seonggye retreated his military from Wihwa-do Island to cause political strife and seized power. At the time, in the Goryeo Dynasty, the forces of Jeong Mongju, who insisted on reforming the existing system, and the forces of Jeong Dojeon, who insisted on establishing a new system, were at odds. Yi Bangwon judges that they would all die if Jeong Mongju isn’t removed, and murders him, and then appoints Yi Seonggye as the king. That is how Joseon began in 1392. However, the strifes of princes never ends even with the new dynasty. Through such bloody struggles for 8 years, Yi Bangwon (Taejong) finally became a king. Will Yi Bangwon be able to become a king dedicated to the people as he wished?
