Under the rule of King Sejong the Great (Han Suk Kyu), the Joseon Dynasty flourished as scientific advancements and technological developments served to better the lives of the people. Honoring those who made scientific progress, the King sought out the greatest minds in Joseon, celebrating the advancements they made in agriculture, astrology, medicine, and more. With an insatiable thirst for knowledge and a mind inclined to think outside the box, it was only a matter of time before he crossed paths with the brilliant Jang Yeong Sik (Choi Min Sik).&nbsp;

Born a slave, Jang Yeong Sik had no claims to greatness, but his astounding mind and impressive talents eventually earned him a position within the local government. Finding a kindred spirit in Yeong Sik, King Sejong gives the low-born man a position as his science advisor, and together they make great strides in the scientific world. As time passes, their love of scientific research and invention leads them to form an unusual and completely unprecedented friendship.

But the technological advances they make for Joseon catch the eye of the Ming Empire. Wary of Joseon becoming too great, the Chinese Emperor orders an immediate cessation of astrological study and demands that Jang Yeong Sik be handed over at once. Forced to make a terrible choice, King Sejong must decide between the friend he cherishes or the people he was born to protect.

Desperate to find a better life, she travels abroad, leaving her husband and son to carry on without her.

Fourteen years later, Zhen Chen (Jang Dong Yoon) and his father have made a comfortable enough life for themselves. Still living in China, Zhen Chen has no memories of his mother and might not have ever given her a second thought, if not for the fact that his father, now terminally ill, has made a dying wish to see his ex-wife one more time. In an effort to make his father’s wish come true, Zhen Chen sets out to find his long-lost mother. Tracking her down in South Korea, Zhen Chen is utterly disgusted with the life she has chosen for herself.

South Korea is rocked in 1997, when a college student is found apparently stabbed to death in the restroom of a fast food chain in the Itaewon District of the capital, Seoul. The district is popular among Americans and other foreigners due to its proximity to a large United States Army base. The case is particularly hard for both the police and public prosecutors to crack: Before the student was found dead, he was seen having an argument with other young men.

Two Korean-American friends – Robert Pearson (Jang Geun Suk) and Alex “AJ” Jung (Shin Seung Hwan) – were seen going into the restroom shortly before the body was discovered. They had also been handling a knife at the table they had been sitting at. The investigators consider both to be suspects. But the case gets even harder to solve when Robert Pearson and Alex Jung claim that they are innocent – and blame one another for the killing. It falls to the quick-witted Prosecutor Park (Jung Jin Young) to try to determine who is telling the truth. Will he help bring the killer to justice – and help the innocent man walk free?

This movie was based on a true story.
