Synopsis by Andrea LeVasseur
Hong Kong martial arts filmmaker Kim Yeong-jun directs the romantic adventure Bicheon Mu, based on the manga by Korean writer Kim Hye-rin. Shot in China and set in 1343, the story involves the love affair between orphan Jin-ha (Shin Hyeon-jun) and the general's daughter, Sullie (Kim Heui-seon). After learning that Jin-ha has been killed in battle, she appeases her father and marries Mongol Nam-gung Jun-kwang (Jeong Jin-yeong). Jin-ha gets better, learns about his heritage, and leads a team of sword-wielding warriors. Ten years later, the lovers are reunited.
