About Girl in Male Attire
In the middle of Koryeo Kingdom, the country's government was obliged to supply even girls to the Chinese Government (Won Dynasty country) for paying tribute, so that the girls were forced to hide themselves in male attire. Such a fake man was called "Kasinai". The Royal Court sends a messenger to get rid of such a bad system (in other words, the supply of girls for paying tribute) to the Chinese government. At that time, the messenger's fiancee has been also captured for paying tribute. Fortunately, when the messenger, who has succeeded in cancelling such system when visiting Chinese government, returns to home country, he rescues her and finally gets married.
