BICHUNMOO is a Korean movie written and directed by Young-jun Kim in 2000.
In the 14th century, China is under Mongolian control. Yu Jinha is the sole survivor of the old Chinese Yu family and is taught the secret martial arts of the family -the Bichunmoo- by a loyal servant.
Jinha is in love with Sullie, a young Mongolian girl who's forced to marry a member of the Mongolian aristocracy. As the years pass by, Jinha has become the chief of the swordsmen of the army who must deliver China from the Mongolian yoke.
