Synopsis In the wake of a violent political coup that shakes the Joseon dynasty, King Yi Hong-wi is dethroned and sent into exile.

“No matter what it takes, we must have him come to our village.”

Meanwhile, in the remote mountain village of Gwangchungol in Yeongwol, village chief Eom Heung-do struggles to provide for his people. Hoping to revive the village, he volunteers Cheongnyeongpo as a place of exile, believing it will bring great fortune. However, the man he welcomes is not a powerful noble, but the young, dethroned king, Yi Hong-wi.

Tasked as the warden responsible for the exile, Eom Heung-do must watch Yi Hong-wi’s every move. As days pass, however, he grows increasingly concerned by the boy who has lost the will to live.

The story of Cheongnyeongpo, 1457, that history tried to erase.
