YesAsia Editorial Description

MBC's hugely popular Jumong is the first of a wave of Korean historical dramas dealing with the Goguryeo Dynasty (approximately 37 BC-AD 668). Written by veteran Choi Wan Gyu (Hur Jun, Sang Do, and All In) and Jung Hyung Soo (Damo), Jumong is one of Korea's most impressive and popular historical dramas. It dominated television screens during its broadcast, attracting viewership ratings of over 40% in Korea.

Jumong is the name of the legendary founder of Goguryeo, King Dongmyeongseong. The story starts with the conflict between Gojoseon, an ancient Korean kingdom, and Han Chinese forces, eventually leading to a fragmented Korean Peninsula. Hero-in-the-making Jumong (Song Il Kook, Emperor of the Sea) is born in this time of chaos and struggle in the little independent state of Buyeo. He quickly finds himself the most unlikely of princes and the victim of a rivalry with his brother Dae So (Kim Seung Soo, A Million Roses). He is forced to choose between the boyish charm of young merchant So Seo No (Han Hye Jin; Be Strong, Geum Soon!) and the innocent smile of Bu Yeong (Im So Young), a servant he's known for years. Through dangerous trials and painful lessons of the heart, Jumong must rise to the occasion to unite the land and bring peace to his people.

This volume also comes with the first episode of period drama Damo.

    목숨보다 더 사랑했지만 전부가 될 수 없었던 역사보다 거대한 사랑 역사가 되어버린 단 하나의 사랑이 부활한다“내 운명을 왕자님께 걸겠습니다.” 당신의 여왕 소서노 -

    운명에 맞서 싸운 신화보다 위대한 영웅 주몽- 고구려의 하늘을 연 승리의 이야기
    “나 또한 아가씨에게 내 운명을 걸겠습니다.” 당신의 왕 주몽-

    MBC 특별기획 드라마 '주몽'이 고구려 건국신화인 주몽신화를 인간의 역사로 극화해 시선을 모은다. 고구려의 시조인 '주몽'의 일대기를 다루는 이 사극은 신화로만 남아있던 '주몽'의 일대기를 작가의 상상력을 바탕으로 인간의 이야기로 다시 쓰게 된다.

    주몽 신화에서는 주몽이 인간 유화부인과 천신의 아들 해모수의 사이에서 태어나, 알에서 깨어나는 신과 인간의 중간적 존재로 상정한다. 드라마 '주몽'에서는 해모수(허준호)를 고조선의 유민이자 영웅으로 부여 국왕인 금와왕(전광렬)과 유화부인(오연수)를 두고 삼각관계를 이루는 인물로 설정했다. 또한 주몽 신화에서 부여의 왕자들에게 질시를 받거나, 하늘의 도움으로 강을 건너는 등 신화적이며 비현실적인 부분들은 제거되며, 주몽을 도와 고구려를 건국한 여걸 소서노(한혜진)의 역할이 신화보다 더욱 명확하게 대두될 예정이다. 그러나 고조선에서 고구려로 이행하는 당시 시기에 대한 사료가 극단적으로 부족하기 때문에, 당대 문화나 인물 고증에서 작가적 상상력이 많이 개입될 것으로 알려졌다.

    기존 사극이 사료에 기반을 두고 신화를 만들어가는 과정이라면, '주몽'의 경우 신화를 현대적 리얼리티로 기반하고 해체하는 작업이라, 이 새로운 시도가 어떤 형태의 사극으로 나타날지 눈길이 쏠리고 있다.

    기원전 108년, 2100년 동안 대제국을 영유했던 고조선은 한나라와 1년여에 걸친 전쟁 끝에 멸망하고, 고조선의 영토에 낙랑, 진번, 임둔, 현토군을 설치한다. 고조선의 유민들은 들불같은 저항을 시작하고, 그 중심에 해모수가 있었다. 부여의 왕 해부루는 해모수의 활약으로 고조선 유민들이 부여에 정착하게 된 사실에 여느 때처럼 기뻐하지만, 이번에는 한나라 황제가 총애하는 자가 죽었기 때문에 유민들을 보호했다간 큰 화를 면치 못할 것이라는 부득불의 충언에 근심이 쌓인다. 한편, 부여의 운명을 점치는 신녀 여미을은 부여의 해 속에 세 개의 다리를 가진 삼족오가 떠올랐다 사라졌는데 두 개의 다리는 해부루와 금와가 명백한데 나머지가 어떤 존재인지 가늠키 어렵다는 알 수 없는 말을 하고... 현토성 태수가 각 부족 수장들을 소환하자 금와는 아버지를 대신해 현토성에 가게 되는데 그 곳에서 하백의 딸 유화를 만난다. 태수는 해모수를 돕거나 숨긴 자를 처단할 것이라 선포하더니 부족 수장들 앞에서 철기군을 내세워 무자비하게 고조선 유민들을 처단한다. 이를 지켜보던 금와는 분노가 끓어오르지만 후환이 두려워 이도 저도 하지 못하고 있는데, 갑자기 나타난 유화가 살육을 멈추라 소리치고...

    Great History Drama Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
    Jumong is a great Korean history drama. I like it a lot.
    The story was grand. The images and BGM were excellent. The production team put all 81 episodes together were amazing.

    The only thing I hate was the subtitles; characters’ names got changed and country names got changed. I have to rely on my limited Korean to understand it.

    Great Storyline of Growth Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
    This has to be the best korean drama i have ever seen. This kingdom days style of drama is comparable or even better than some of the chinese dramas i have seen. I really enjoy watching the characters grow into who they are. How they start and come to be. To enjoy how or possibly korean history or kingdoms once lived. even the special features is awesome. it comes with english subtitles too!!! if you love the ancient days. this is a must watch!
