The Treacherous is based on the true story of the historic figure Yeonsan-gun and his treacherous retainer, Soong-jae, who controlled the king under his fingers. Soong-jae gathers 10,000 women to become the king’s court ladies. Among them is Dan-hee, who vows to take revenge on the King for her family.
