Plot

In the year 1448, during the 30th year of Se-Jeong's (Ahn Sung-Ki) reign, Joseon finds itself at the mercy of its Chinese overlords. In pursuit of Joseon’s autonomy, King Sejong funds a secret project to create the Sinjijeon - a powerful rocket based artillery weapon. When the project nears completion, the Ming Dynasty learns of the project and comes down hard on suspected Koreans. The inventor of the Sinjijeon destroys important research materials and commits suicide to protect the project. For the country of Joseon, the project isn’t completely lost as the inventor’s daughter Hong-Ri (Han Eun-Jung) escapes with the blueprints for the Sinjijeon.

Hong-Ri is then hidden by Joseon officials at the home of a shady merchant named Seol-Ju (Jung Jae-Young). Since Seol-Ju’s father was accused of treason and killed, Seol-Ju has stayed away from politics and concentrated solely on accumulating wealth and wooing women. Even with his reservations about politics, Seol-Ju becomes drawn into the Sinjijeon project, largely because of his affections for Hong-Ri. When the Chinese officials threaten to again clamp down on Joseon, King Sejong orders a halt to the Sinjijeon project. Meanwhile, Seol-Ju and Hong-Ri have other plans.
