The Blacksmith You Dumped Is the Red Dragon King

What The Blacksmith You Dumped Is the Red Dragon King is about

Arthur works as a humble blacksmith, but he is secretly the Red Dragon King. For five years he paid for his fiancée Elaine's studies, only for her to crush his ring in public and leave him for Lord Kendrick. Then Princess Guinevere, running from a forced marriage to the warlord Duke Fletcher, comes to Arthur for help.

From palace halls to the Holy Dragon Altar, Arthur shows flashes of frightening power while keeping his true identity hidden. The appeal is the familiar pleasure of watching an underestimated man bide his time, with Arthurian names, a forbidden romance and flash-marriage tropes woven in. Expect a painful public breakup, a looming warlord and a steady build toward a big reveal, told in episodes of one to three minutes.

Why watch it

Who it's for
