Synopsis
The main character Hong Gil-Dong is Minister Hong's son born of the maidservant Chun-Seom, during Sejong's reign in Joseon dynasty, in the capital Seoul.
Gil-Dong practiced Taoist magic since a young age and would someday become a splendid individual,
but due to his illegitimate birth he carried the grudge of not being able to address his father and siblings.
His family feared Gil-Dong's unique skills would be the root of calamity someday thus they hired assassins to get rid of Gil-Dong.
Upon escaping danger, Gil-Dong left to wander and became a bandit leader.
Gil-Dong schemed to seize treasures from Hae-In-Sa, and afterwards with the name Hwal-Bin-Dang (army saving the poor), with skills and Taoist magic,
he seized fortunes from the corrupt officials all over the country and gave them to the poor people, but did not take a penny from the common citizens.
Gil-Dong captured treasures from the governor of Ham-Kyeong, and the governor submitted a report to the royal court.
Thus Hong Gil-Dong became a wanted grand offender by the criminal capturing branch of the government.
Even the top police general Lee Heup tried to capture Hong Gil-Dong, but Lee was only made a fool.
Despite the King's order to capture him, no one could escape from suffering by Gil-Dong's magic of ho-pung-hwan-woo (act of calling for wind and rain) and dun-gap-jang-sin (act of disappearance to hide onself).
The royal court then appeased to Minister Hong, and with support by Gil-Dong's brother In-Hyeong, they petitioned to make Gil-Dong the minister of army and war. Gil-Dong came to Seoul to become head of army and war ministry.
Later on, Gil-Dong left his homeland toward Nam-Kyeong, but discovered the nation of Yul-Do scenic with mountain and streams.
He conquered the goblins and saved the beautiful woman who was captured as as a hostage, and became the king of Yul-Do nation.
Then, upon hearing news of his father's death, he returned to his native land and mourned for 3 years, then returned to Yul-Do nation and managed his nation well.

Well... Your initiative is all very great but didn't WITH S2 already said they would work on it? And I haven't seen them removing Hong Gil Dong of their project page... You said mily2 already knows... You've got me a bit puzzled here, did you tell her you had decided to take Hong Gil Dong?.

Until WITH S2 removes it from their project page I won't take it and will wait patiently for their release, but I thank you anyway for your hard work. That's pretty fast!
Wish you the best of luck ^^

New fansub group are always good (: wish you guys luck with more projects in the future. I'm also kinda of confused b/c WITH S2 has this on their project page so does that mean both of you guys will release this series then?

Also I'm just curious but do you guys have bilingual translators? They know English, Korean and Vietnamese? I see the translators for this episode has Viet names. So did you guys translated directly from Korean to English or was it Korean to Viet then to English?

Welcome KST to the subbing world and thanks a lot for the super duper fast release Mr. Green

Hmmm, this is confusing... I'm with Deedlith on this, especially since Hong Gil Dong is still up on WITHS2 wikipage as a project they intend to do, not to mention that the first episode seems to have been translated as well as timed already...

can I ask do the new subbing team allow they're works to be uploaded or do they share the same thoughts as WITH S2. I like to upload this series in Crunchyroll if the subbers permit us!
Crunchyroll respects the wishes of the subber if they don't like their works uploaded there just wondering
