The series opens with a cinematic prologue that is often cited as one of the best opening arcs in K-drama history. It establishes the backstory of Gu Wol-ryung (played by the charismatic Choi Jin-hyuk), a benevolent mountain spirit, and Yoon Seo-hwa (played by Lee Yeon-hee), a noblewoman whose life is ruined by political corruption. Their forbidden love and subsequent tragedy set the stage for the entire series. These episodes are emotionally heavy and visually stunning, hooking the audience immediately.
