Overview

After the massacre of her previous masters, Seul-Gi is transferred to the Royal Palace to work for Queen Bae Joo-Hyun--an ice-cold Queen with an unreasonable attitude. Despite the reputation, Seul-Gi finds the Queen to be an enticing mystery, a feeling that is surprisingly reciprocated. ~~Curiosity grows into passion, and a forbidden relationship begins to blossom between them amidst opposite forces: the Queen's duty to the King, a rising tension in the courts, and jealous wrath from the Concubine who vies for the King's attention. While Seul-Gi falls deeper and deeper in love with the woman she cannot have, the world around her spirals more and more into a political storm she cannot control. There is nothing she can do to protect the Queen, no matter how much she is willing to sacrifice for her. --The world is cruel, and the Queen's maid is powerless. ***A Korean historical romantic tragedy inspired by the iconic lesbian movie, The Handmaiden.****
