Synopsis

In early-twentieth-century Korea, Najin Han, the privileged daughter of a calligrapher, longs to choose her own destiny amidst Japanese occupation. Defying tradition, she serves in the king’s court, only for the monarchy to fall. As her country faces increasing oppression, Najin embarks on a journey to continue her education and find love, all while fighting for freedom.
