Hyeongsa

Once upon a time long ago in Korea, the Minister of Defense, Song Piljoon, decides to stamp counterfeit money. As soon as it goes into circulation, prices skyrocket and the common people are thrust into extreme hardship. Detective Namsoon goes forthrightly undercover with her partner, Detective Ahn, to investigate the counterfeit money. But when all the prime suspects are killed, the case becomes a much deeper mystery. She discovers one loyal henchman, Sad Eyes, a beautiful swordsman with a pale, blank face, is covering up Minister Song's tracks. Namsoon and Sad Eyes confront each other in a series of duels--tirelessly chasing, being pursued, and dodging each other. Inevitably, they fall headlong in love--and their forbidden enchantment blossoms. Each struggles to reconcile the desperate conflict between love and obligation to duty, as they square off to meet their fate in one last duel. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
