This drama portrays the life of the 19th king of Goguryeo, Hwanwoong, who was sent from the heavens to make the world a better place. He falls in love with Saeoh and gives her the joojak necklace; however, Kajin becomes jealous since Saeoh has given birth to Hwanwoong's son. She takes the baby and throws him off a cliff. Saeoh, thinking that her son had died, is overcome with grief and turns into the black joojak to destroy the world. Hwanwoong is the only one who could stop her. Afterwards, Hwanwoong returns to the Heavens and prophecizes that 2000 years later, the true Joo Shin king will come to Earth. With the help of the four gods, he will rebuild Joo Shin.

Who has seen this, plans to watch it, or is watching it now?
I watched this last year and it was my first saeguk and I remember getting goosebumps in the first episodes. I was a bit disappointed in the ending to say the least. I was really hoping for something grander and more awesome than what I saw.

I also remember having a crush on Lee Phillips (even thought I don't think he's eyecandy) because of his hair....<3

I seem to remember you getting really weird about some guys hair & wishing he was a doll or something lol so it was this drama :p

Yes, it was this drama...lol

Imagine him fighting and his hair twirling in the air <3....lol (Yes, I know he's not pretty! I just wanted to play with his hair....lol)
One of my favorite dramas! <3 I think I watched these at least 7 times lol. I love Lee Phillips too and the fact that he didn't speak a word in the drama adds to his mysteriousness.
