The President of South Korea races against time to prove the seal on documents from long dead King Gojong is fake by charging outspoken historian Choi Min-jae, and a descendant of the royal bloodline Kim Yu-shik, to find the long lost seal in order to prove that the Japanese claim to railroads is false, a claim that will stop the reunification of the two Koreas.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a compelling race against time, where a historical artifact holds the key to a modern political crisis. The dynamic between the scholar and the descendant provides a human core to the high-stakes plot, grounding the national thriller in personal urgency.

What lingers after the credits is a sharp commentary on how history is weaponized in geopolitics. The pacing is taut, and the stakes feel authentically monumental, making the search for a seal resonate with the weight of a nation's future. — MovieFinder Editorial
