In the modern age, Jang Bong-hwan (Choi Jin-hyuk) is a chef who works at the Blue House. He has a free spirit, but one day finds himself in the body of Queen Cheorin (Shin Hye-sun) in the Joseon period.
King Cheoljong (Kim Jung-hyun), the reigning monarch, is a gentle and easy-going person. However, he is only King in name, while the true power is wielded by the late King Sunjo’s wife, Queen Sunwon (Bae Jong-ok), who has relegated Cheoljong to a figurehead.
Queen Cheorin soon discovers that the King is not what he seems, and that he has a dark and suspicious side to him.
