Synopsis
The scenario intertwines two storylines. One of them occurs in a "nowadays" placed in the early 19th century[lower-alpha 1] of Joseon. The other occurred twenty years before (white horse year, 1810[lower-alpha 2]). The first one is treated lightly, in the Sungkyunkwan Scandal vein, with caricatures [lower-alpha 3], jokes, gimmicks, students fights, etc. The second one, only depicted by short flash-backs, is about the unjust situation of the rank and file people[lower-alpha 4], and the brutal suppression of anyone who dares to object.
Nowadays, Nokseodang
painted by Sin Yun-bok
In the Joseon Dynasty, women were objectified and undervalued. But free-spirited lady Goo Hae-ryung is brave enough to follow her own view of life. Still single at 26 years old, she focuses on studying and gaining knowledge, and in defending those who are wronged and abused.
Meanwhile, the young and handsome 20-year-old Prince Dowon has been living his life alone at the Nokseodang 綠嶼堂 (green island pavilion). Isolated inside the Huwon Garden[lower-alpha 5], he has to stay away from the royal Court and found comfort by writing hangul romance novels. Published under the pen name Maehwa 梅花 (plum blossom), these novels became famous all over Hanyang, especially to women readers.
When the two main characters encounter, and their first meeting sparks a war of preferences. But politics disturb the romance. All of a sudden, Korean books are banned, confiscated and burned. All the beard bearing red robes at court are infuriated that "so many noble ladies ran away to find the love of their life after reading Maehwa's books" [lower-alpha 6]. But this is only a "just cause". The real target is "The Story of Hodam", a book about events that occurred twenty years ago.
In their frenzy to search and destroy every single copy of this book, King and Councilor Min Ik-pyeong go as far as asking for the recruitment of female historians, with the intent of planting spies in each chamber of the Royal Palace. As a result, four female apprentices (Goo Hae-ryung among them) are selected and added to the existing eight recorders. They became part of the everyday collection of pieces 사책 that will be compiled into the Veritable Records of the Joseon Dynasty. Many gender stereotypes are surfacing, only to be derided... and overcome. As a result, the twelve historians are ending in circling the wagons to enforce their independence from the Court, even going on strike against the King[lower-alpha 7].
A smallpox epidemic will be the event that reconnects the two storylines. On the one hand, members of the Court speculate on traditional remedies, and even attempt to kill the Prince by sending him to the infested provinces. On the other hand, Dowon organizes the state answer, seizing and distributing food while applying the 牛痘種書, 瑛眼 (vaccination treaty, by Yeongan) that was provided by the mysterious Moh-wa. Hae-ryung remembers being vaccinated by her father in the past and convinces the Prince to prove the method by being the first patient to be inoculated.
Twenty years ago, Seoraewon
![The corner stone, saying: this place will open the road[lower-alpha 8]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4a/Seoraewon_Corner_Stone.png/200px-Seoraewon_Corner_Stone.png)
this place will open the road[lower-alpha 8]
A set of flash-backs disseminated all across the episodes describes the events of "twenty years ago". The former King, Yi Gyeom, Prince Huiyeong, styled Hodam, founded Seoraewon, together with Seo Mun-jik, styled Yeongan. The later was the dean, while Hodam was one of the teachers. The leading team was completed by Barthelemy Dominique, a medicine teacher, who was sent by the Paris Foreign Missions Society. As a result, Seoraewon was a school of Western studies aimed at educating people regardless of social class or gender. The Seoraewon name 曙來院 itself has the meaning of "Where Dawn Arrives".
This is where Moh-wa learned vaccination and surgery.
A conservative reaction ensued, led by Min Ik-pyeong. A forged letter of the King, allegedly saying "send more priests, and turn Joseon into a Catholic country" [lower-alpha 9] served as "just cause" for a massacre. Among the rare escapees were Dowon, the newborn son of Hodam and the 6 years old Hae-ryung, the daughter of Yeongan.
The series ends three years after "nowadays". Min Ik-pyeong and his proxy king are gone and Seoraewon is reinstated. Prince Yi Jin is in charge of the throne. Dowon can live in leisure outside of the Palace, wandering across the world, while Hae-ryung becomes a full-ranked member of the Yemungwan. Prince Yi Rim (Dowon) and Hae-ryung are still in a relationship but not married. They find time to travel together.
Quotation
“(Goo Hae-ryung). Even if you slash my throat, our brushes will not stop writing. If I die, another historian will take my place; if you kill that historian, another will take their place. Even if you kill every historian in this land, and take away all the paper and brushes, you won't be able to stop us. From mouth to mouth, teacher to student, elder to child, history will be told. That is the power of truth.[lower-alpha 10]”
Cast
Main
In the Netflix release, the following three characters are put forward in the opening sequence of each episode:
- Shin Se-kyung as Goo Hae-ryung (born Seo Hee-yeon)[3]
- A noble lady who becomes one of the four female historians of the royal court. She is the daughter of Seo Moon-jik, the deceased dean of Seoraewon, and has been living with her guardian Jae-kyeong whom she regards as her older brother. She is among those Joseon women wanting to enforce their independence, moral and material as well, voicing out their ideas and opinions. As an historian, she is recognized as someone brave who does not fear anyone, even the King himself. She often cracks jokes even in the most dire circumstances, for example when she is locked in jail.
- Cha Eun-woo as Yi Rim (Prince Dowon)[4]
- The first son of the dethroned King Huiyeong Yi Gyeom and the real heir to the throne. Not knowing his true lineage, he secretly works as a romance novelist under his nom de plume "Maehwa,". He does not involve himself in political matters, and regards his uncle King Yi Tae as his father and his cousin Crown Prince Yi Jin as his older brother. Spelled 島遠[lower-alpha 11], Dowon means "Remote Island". Until he meets Hae-ryung, Yi Rim leads a pathologically lonely existence. She is his first and only friend.
- Park Ki-woong as Crown Prince Yi Jin [5]
According to the credits, more than two hundred actors were involved. At the end of each episode, a recurring set of 34 actors is listed first, followed by a list specific to the episode.

Notes
- In order to circumvent Korean laws that prevent commercial breaks in the middle of an episode, what would previously have been aired as single 70 minute episodes are now being repackaged as two 35 minute episodes, with two episodes being shown each night with a commercial break between the two.[1]
- Due to some ratings not recorded, the exact average rating is unknown.
