Joseon, year 1455. The young WanTandzhon is overthrown by his own uncle and sent into exile. Meanwhile, in Yonvol uyezd, the elder of the poor village OmHyn-do has heard that if they exile some noble to the settlement, then caravans of the gray-haired will follow, and the villagers will no longer go hungry. With all his might, OmHyn-do seeks to have his village recognized as the most godforsaken hole the world has ever seen, and, in anticipation of abundance, joyfully welcomes the first exile. But to the villagers' disappointment, an unsavory gentleman arrives, a certain beardless youth.
