Arthdal Chronicles is a K-Drama, specifically Sageuk or historical drama, released last 2019. Studio Dragon produced the drama and was partly inspired by Dangun, the first founder of the Korean Kingdom of Gojoseon (an ancient kingdom ruled in the Northern Korean Peninsula founded in 2333 BCE). The writers of the series also wrote hit K-dramas such as Six Flying Dragons and Deep-Rooted Tree/Tree with Deep Roots.
The drama is set in Arthdal, a fictional ancient land. The themes of the drama are power struggles and Eunsom’s quest for his tribe’s renaissance.
