In the Tang Dynasty, Ji Ying Ying, a young lady from Huanhua Dyeing Workshop in Yizhou, and Zhao Xiu Yuan, a big brocade family in Yizhou, were childhood sweethearts. However, due to family pressure, Zhao Xiu Yuan could only marry Niu Wu Niang, the daughter of the official Niu family.

Ji Ying Ying met Yang Jing Yuan, the third son of Jin Wang Yang’s family. Yang Jing Yuan fell in love with her at first sight, but Ji Ying Ying was very dissatisfied with Yang Jing Yuan. Soon, the two became a pair of happy friends, and their feelings were getting warmer.

At this time, the prince of Nanzhao Kingdom, the White King, visited Yizhou. This man coveted Ji’s dyeing skills and used the Zhao family’s secret dyeing recipe to steal Ji’s dyeing recipe.

The Yang family’s visit to raise relatives also allowed the Ji family to temporarily survive the crisis. The White King calculated the failure of Ji’s family, so he attacked Yizhou and took Ji Ying Ying away.

Yang Jing Yuan led the army to protect his homeland and finally repelled the enemy, and the family was reunited.

In 1905, Japan forced Korea to sign the Eulsa Treaty, stripping the nation of its diplomatic rights and reducing the entire peninsula to a Japanese colony. By 1909, when Harbin begins, Korea’s small but tenacious Righteous Army militia is deep into a campaign of armed resistance against the Japanese. After emerging as the sole survivor of an especially bloody skirmish, Ahn Jung-geun (Hyun) heads an operation to assassinate Itō Hirobumi, the first Japanese Resident-General of Korea and a key symbol of violent colonial oppression.

The operation will require Ahn and his cohort to travel clandestinely into Russia, gathering resources and allies while concocting elaborate decoys. With terrifying risks at every turn, murderous security forces on their tail, and the entire plan under constant threat of collapse, the question arises: how many Koreans must die for the sake of their country’s independence?
