In the year 1994, the Kingdom of Corea faced great betrayal when the king (Kwon Yool) was murdered by his own brother, Lee Lim (Lee Jung-Jin). Lee Lim aims to take hold of the "Manpasikjeok," which is known to be a legendary flute that holds supernatural powers. However, a mysterious figure that appeared with a gun helped Lee Gon while Lee Lim was trying to murder the young prince. Lee Lim slipped and was able to escape with having only half of the now broken flute. The following day Goon was appointed the next ruler of the Kingdom of Corea.
