The Kingdom of Cheonmyeong : Dangun, the First King

Before kingdoms were born, a vision from heaven reached the human world.

Hwan-ung, the son of the Heavenly Emperor, descended to earth with 3,000 spirits to bring the ideal of Hongik Ingan — benefiting all humanity and creating a better world.

The spirits did not come to rule over humans. They came to support Hwan-ung’s mission and help build a new era for mankind.

But the path to a better world is filled with challenges. Human desires, conflicts, and struggles test the dream that came from heaven.

From this journey, a child destined to change history is born.

This is the beginning of the legend of Dangun and the birth of a new age.
