Up until this point, Jumong (played by Song Il-gook) had been a talented but often reckless prince, struggling under the shadow of his brothers and the manipulations of the power-hungry Daeso and Youngpo. However, as we enter , the levity is gone. We are presented with a Jumong broken by grief, burdened by the secret of his true lineage, and stripped of his political standing within the Buyeo court.

However, this low point is necessary for his ascent. During this period, Jumong begins to realize that he cannot rely solely on Buyeo’s protection or the charity of his adoptive father, King Geumwa. The narrative genius of episodes 25 through 28 lies in the subtle shift of Jumong’s demeanor. He stops seeking approval from the Buyeo court and starts looking inward. He begins to gather the scattered remnants of the Damul Army, not as a prince of Buyeo, but as the son of Hae Mosu.
