The first feeling is an interesting historical story. A mysterious feeling similar to the first time I read Greek and Roman myths as a child.

Song Joong Ki also said that Eun Seom's character is one of the biggest reasons for him to choose this movie: "This is a mature character, I care a lot about the way Eun Seom thinks about her identity. . Although the character is often hurt, he does not give up and works hard to find his own way of life. I became greedy when I wanted to describe the pain and innocence that Eun Seom has ”.

Finally, Song Joong Ki stated: “I think it would be good if viewers could feel at least a little bit of the life of the countries, languages and different generations of‘ Arthdal Chronicles'. I believe many people will care about Eun Seom when he tries to protect himself and important people. ”
