In the 4th episode of tvN's weekend drama Arthdal Chronicles: The Sword of Aramun, which aired yesterday, September 17th, a nightmarish day unfolds as Prince Arok is kidnapped and heads to the dangerous territory of Tessari Village with Ta Gon (Jang Dong Gun) and Tae Al Ha (Kim Ok Bin).

Between Ta Gon and Tae Al Ha, there exists Prince Arok, also known as the "Little Aramun." Despite their constant suspicion of each other, Arok is a precious child to them. In Arthdal, some harbor grudges against Ta Gon and Tae Al Ha, lurking in the shadows, targeting Arok's life. An unknown group attempted to assassinate Arok, which Tae Al Ha managed to prevent. They are on high alert against outsiders, not knowing when and how danger might befall Arok.

Amidst this tension, the couple's worst fear becomes a reality: the sudden disappearance of Prince Arok from the palace. In response, Ta Gon and Tae Al Ha embark on a desperate search, scouring inside and outside the court and venturing to Tessari Village.

Tessari Village is a dangerous area where sinners gather, and if news of Ta Gon's presence spreads there, even a king's life could be in danger.
However, Ta Gon and Tae Al Ha are determined to find their son, even if it means going as far as the Plain of the Moon, where the Neanthals live. Now is the time to unite their hearts and show their unwavering strength as parents.

The kidnapping of Prince Arok sets in motion a series of events that will disrupt many things within Arthdal. It foreshadows a strong wind of change that will shake the foundation of the Arthdal dynasty, sparking curiosity among viewers.

All eyes are on whether these three individuals can join forces to bring Prince Arok back to the palace safely.
