Taking place during the turbulent Goryeo Dynasty, the 14-episode drama weaves together high-stakes action, romance, and a dangerous quest for hope when it premieres on December 5.
When a kingdom stands on the brink of ruin, its survival comes down to one perilous mission. Announced from Singapore on November 3, 2026, Prime Video is set to launch Sacred Jewel, a sweeping new Korean historical drama headlined by Ahn Bo-hyun, Lee Sung-min, and Claudia Kim.
Set in 1258 during the Goryeo Dynasty—following nearly thirty years of grueling conflict against the Mongols—the nation faces imminent collapse. With defeat closing in, an elite convoy embarks on a high-stakes expedition that represents Goryeo’s final hope. Led by the resolute young warrior Baek Gyul, the team sets out to retrieve a sacred jewel rumored to hold miraculous powers capable of saving the realm. Battling across hostile territory and pushing past the mountains toward the eastern sea, the unit encounters danger at every step, while Princess Wang Hee races to support them in a journey where both the kingdom’s survival and their own lives hang in the balance.
Meet the Main Cast
• Ahn Bo-hyun (Spring Fever, Flex X Cop, My Name) as Baek Gyul: A sharp-minded, fiercely determined young fighter whose stubborn streak is rivaled only by his deep convictions. As the sole son of the Vice Minister of War, Baek Gyul serves in the emperor’s elite bodyguard, the Gyeonryonggun. However, after his forbidden romance with Princess Wang Hee angers the emperor, he is named Commander of a special convoy and dispatched alongside the Elite Military Task Force on a treacherous quest for sacred relics that could shift the course of the war—forcing him to weigh duty against personal sacrifice.
• Lee Sung-min (Teach You a Lesson, Reborn Rich, No Other Choice) as Choi Gu: A storied veteran whose name was built across hundreds of battles. Once the most feared warrior in the Elite Military Task Force and the commander every young soldier aspired to follow for a shot at survival, Choi Gu quietly wrestles with fading glory and his own mortality beneath his tough exterior. Appointed Captain of Baek Gyul’s special convoy, the seasoned fighter faces a grueling new mission that puts his strength, grit, and legacy to the ultimate test.
• Claudia Kim (Gyeongseong Creature, The Atypical Family, Chimera) as Princess Wang Hee: The emperor’s youngest daughter, whose poise and cold exterior mask a life shaped by sorrow. Wounded by a political marriage and profound personal tragedy, she has long guarded her heart against vulnerability. Yet her growing bond with Baek Gyul begins to thaw her emotional defenses, rekindling feelings she believed were gone for good. As war engulfs her world, Wang Hee must reckon with her past and summon the strength to claim her future.
