Plus Q&A with director Kang Woo Suk
At a time when maps weren’t readily accessible for the public, Gosanja Kim Jeong-ho (Cha Seoung-won) sets out to walk across the Korean peninsula to make the ‘Daedongyeojido’ – the Great Map of the East Land, with hopes of providing an accurate and accessible map for everyone.
