The entire first season, and the first episode of the second were directed by Kim Seong-hun, with Park In-je directing the remainder of that season. The manhwa takes place in a time where years of war and famine and have plunged Joseon into chaos and focuses on the young Crown Prince Yi Moon. The only ones allowed to see him in his palace at the Hanyang are the Chief State Councillor Lord Cho Hak-ju, leader of the Haewon Cho clan, and his daughter, Queen Consort Cho, who is pregnant with the King's child.

It's a fairly large size for a manga volume but even considering that very little is explained about the epidemic and because we lack information the reader is left wondering. I hate to say that I’m desensitized to violence in media, but with its prevalence I believe that to unfortunately be true for the majority of us in today’s world.

Jung Suk-won as Cho Beom-il (seasons 1–2; special), Cho-Hak-ju's son and Queen Cho's elder brother and a commander in the Royal Army. With Sangju starving, Lee Chang devises a plan to infiltrate the walls cutting off Gyeongsang with a small force and assassinate Hak-ju.
