Konu
"Sejong the Great" (Büyük Sejong) Kral Sejong ve sadık hizmetkarlarının arasındaki işbirliğini ve hanedanlığı daha iyi bir yer haline getirmek için nasıl akıl yürüttüklerini anlatan tam ölçekli siyasi bir dizidir. Kral Sejong tahttayken, Chosun Hanedanlığı en mesut ve bahtiyar günlerinin tadını çıkarmaktaydı.

Bu dizi bu kadar çok sayıda yeni kültürel mirasın nasıl ortaya çıktığının çarpıcı sürecini gözler önüne sermektedir. Aynı zamanda, Kore dili için yerel sesbirimsel bir alfabe yapısı olan "Hangul" ilk kez bulunmuş ve yürürlüğe girmiştir. Bu tamamlanmadan önce, yazılı iletişimde sıradan bir insanın öğrenmesi ve kullanması için son derece zor olan Çin harfleri kullanılmaktaydı. "Hangul" basit ve bilimsel ilkeleri öğrenmek için çok kolaydır, bu nedenle yaygın bir şekilde insanlar hemencecik bu alfabeyi kullanmışlardır. "Hangul"un kendisi dışında, onun egemenliği sırasında bir yağmur göstergesi, bir güneş saati, bir kum saati gibi birkaç ismin sayılabileceği çok sayıda kültürel miras ortaya konmuştur.

Ayrıca, dizi Kral Sejong'un eğitici siyasetine odaklanmıştır. Ondan sonra, Chosun Hanedanlığı Çin'in güçlü Myoung İmparatoru ile yüz yüze gelir ve Kral Sejong onuruyla faydacılığın ruhunu gösterir.

Dizi mekanı Kral Sejong'un dokunuşlarıyla Kyungbok Sarayı, Changduk Sarayı gibi gerçek bir saraydır, bu nedenle sahneleri, Kral Sejong'un tarihi dizisine çok daha gerçekçi bir eğlence katmıştır.

Plot
Sejong the Great “is a full scale politic drama describing how King Sejong and his loyal retainers cooperate and contrive to make his dynasty a better place. While King Sejong was in throne, the Chosun Dynasty enjoyed the most fortunate and happy age ever.

The drama shows the dramatic processes of how so many new cultural heritages have been devised. At that time, “Hangul”, the native phonemic alphabet system for Korean language was first invented and introduced. Before it was made up, Chinese characters had been used for a written communication, which makes it extremely difficult for ordinary people to learn and use. “Hangul” is easy to learn for its simple and scientific principles, so wide-spread people instantly use the alphabet. Other than “hangul” itself, there had been so many cultural heritages created during his regime including a rain gauge, a sundial, an hourglass to name a few.

Also, King Sejong’s pragmatic diplomacy is concentrated in the drama. Then, the Chosun Dynasty was facing a powerful Myoung Empire of China, and King Sejong demonstrates the essence of pragmatism with dignity.

The drama location is a real palace such as Kyungbok Palace, Changduk Palace with touches of King Sejong, so the sceneries will give much more authentic fun to the King Sejong’s historical drama.
