But more than that, this story followings one family throughout Korean history. Not just the epic past and links to the founder of both the Koryo and Chosun dynasties -- but follow the family through the tumultuous changes of the 19th and 20th centuries. We find some of first converts to Western Christianity, a Western medical doctor, a tale of escape from Communist North Korea, and ultimately an immigrant to America. This gripping narrative tells the story of one family across 40 generations and 1,300 years. An epic tale not to be missed.
