Synopsis

This drama portrays the life of the 19th king of Goguryeo. Jumong, the founder of Goguryeo, establish Goguryeo with his Four Gods: Cheong-ryong (Blue Dragon), Baek-ho (White Tiger), Joo-jak (Phoenix), Hyeon-mu (symbolized as a turtle). The Japanese may know them as Seiryuu, Byakko, Suzaku, and Genbu. Jumong marries Soseono, who had a big part in the founding of Goguryeo. They have two sons, Onjo and Biryu. When the son of Jumong’s first wife came to Goguryeo in search of his father, and is named Crown Prince, Soseono takes her sons, Onjo and Biryu, South and establishs Baekje. This is how Baekje and Goguryeo were known as ‘brother countries’. As time passed, the Four Gods secluded themselves from society and watched as Baekje and Goguryeo’s relationship worsened (worsened more mainly because Goguryeo’s king was killed in a battle between Baekje and Goguryeo). One day, Ju-ahn, ‘Hyeon-mu’ of the Four Gods, sees two stars sour up into the sky. Since one came from the palace in Baekje, it predicted the birth of ‘Su’, later known as King Ah-shin. The other star came from Goguryeo, prophesizing the birth of Dam-deok, later known as Gwang Gae Toh Dae Wang. Realizing that his new master has come to the world, Ju-ahn awaits in the vast Manchuria with a young girl, Sujini, to see which of the two will be his master. Sujini was picked up as an orphan by Ju-ahn and considers Ju-ahn as her father. Therefore, the story is on the Four Gods looking for their master, Gwang Gae Toh Dae Wang, who was an expert in tactics, the woman he loved (Sujini), who was also loved by the coldhearted King Ah-shin. Who was Dam-deok (Gwang Gae Toh Dae Wang)?: He was the 19th king of Goguryeo (lasted from 37 B.C. to 668 A.D.). During the time of Dam-deok, Goguryeo was the most powerful nation in East Asia (yes, even the Chinese dynasty couldn’t defeat Goguryeo). At age 11, he was made the Crown Prince and became King when he was 16. In 396, he attacked Baekje (a nation Southwest of Goguryeo) and took over the northern area above the Han River. He defeated the many invasions made by the Yeon Dynasty (China) after 400 A.D. During his reign, the number of castles he took over numbered in the hundreds and villages numbered in the thousands. However, he died at an untimely age of 39.

天帝之子桓雄下凡人間並建立名叫朝鮮（朝鮮語：쥬신，台灣版誤譯為肅慎）的國家。此前，這片土地上有著崇仰老虎的虎族與崇拜熊的熊族。不斷與桓雄作對的虎族神女嘉真，以及與桓雄相愛並具有御火能力的熊族女戰士賽澳，三人陷入複雜的三角關係。被妒忌矇蔽雙眼的嘉真，將賽澳與桓雄的的兒子拋下懸崖，賽澳因過度悲傷與憤怒導致喪失理智，燃燒整個大地。桓雄為了拯救世界，只好親手殺掉賽澳，同時嘉真也在懸崖上自殺了，三人的愛恨糾結就此劃上句點。桓雄分別將朱雀、白虎、青龍、玄武封印在信物中，並預言幾千年後當朝鮮王星升起時，是統治朝鮮的新君王誕生之日，四神將再度覺醒並輔佐朝鮮王，說完便回到天上去了。
終於來到這天，當朝鮮王星升起時，談德與高句麗第一貴族淵氏家族之子虎凱同時誕生了。談德為了避免他人危害自己，從小便假裝瘦弱、無用。在王宮內孤單寂寞的談德，偶然與火天會神女琦荷及虎凱成為朋友。虎凱母親認為虎凱才是朝鮮王，故設下毒殺君王的陰謀，卻被琦荷與談德揭穿了，淵夫人因此自殺身亡。心愛的琦荷愛慕著談德，再加上母親被迫自殺的緣故，虎凱自此憎恨談德。
希望虎凱當上君王的火天會大長老與貴族們，設計了陷害談德的陰謀，談德的父親因而身亡。陷入危機的談德也陸續見到保護自己的玄武、朱雀、白虎、青龍等，跨越幾千年的談德，能如預言順利登上王位嗎？
