Jang Bogo (Choi Soo-jong) rises from a lowly slave to become the military commander of the seas during the Unified Silla dynasty. Along the way, he battles pirates and engages in a heated rivalry with Madam Jami (Chae Shi-ra), a Silla noble who challenges Jang Bogo for control of trade rights in the South Sea. Yeom Jang (Song Il-kook), Jang Bogo's charismatic comrade, supports him in his rise to power and eventual title as the "Emperor of the Sea." However, Yeom Jang also competes with Jang Bogo for the affections of Lady Jung-hwa (Soo Ae).
