King Gangmin of Goguryeo was taken as a political hostage by the Yuan dynasty and was forced to stay in that land for 10 years before ascending to the throne. After reaching the Goguryeo Empire, he decided to make his country more independent. Shin Don was a Buddhist priest who enjoyed King Gangmin's boldness and self-confidence. He was born to a princess mother and a slave father. Shin Don became so powerful that he later took control of the entire country. Although he was a Buddhist priest, he believed in political power, more than compassion or love, to overcome problems during different times. He was a heretical philosopher who both despised and worshiped the previous and established ideas. When a group of people believed that he was blinded by the greed for power, another group believed that he was the leader of social reforms who faced difficulties in reviving Goryeo in a time of chaos and anxiety. This drama series introduces the ambitious life of Shin Dan, which is full of low and high, along with the love and betrayal of King Gangmin and Princess Nguk. Shin Don is one of the most controversial historical figures who can be considered as a completely evil Buddhist priest or a thoughtful hero. Since many different stories have been told about him and the truth of his life remains unknown, it is almost a mystery of his kind. What this drama portrays of him is a person of China's conspiracy, whose power occupies his entire mind and his only desire is to resort to cunning. On the other hand, this series showed him as a revolutionary who tried to create a society based on the power of democracy, which although his ideal religion was still a tool to capture and seize political power and attract public support.
