As the Summer draws to a close, we begin to hear updates regarding the Korean drama lineup for the next Fall season on Netflix. One of the most fascinating Korean dramas that audiences may expect is Under the Queen’s Umbrella, a historical drama starring Kim Hye Soo.

The planned South Korean historical drama series Under the Queen’s Umbrella, which has been licensed internationally, is directed by Kim Hyung Shik.
This historical drama will definitely have fans of k-drama on board already. The plot almost seems familiar with a pair of princes who appear to only cause problems for the Royal family and a frustrated, irate Queen trying to keep everything together.

The hardships and tribulations of this specific family will undoubtedly have many twists and turns, and the ensemble cast promises a wide variety of characters.

What is the plot of Under the Queen’s Umbrella?
Soompi claims that the plot of Under the Queen’s Umbrella centers around a group of troublesome princes who are about to assume the title of legitimate crown princes and cause a slew of problems for the royal family. Their mother Im Hwa Ryeong is a powerful monarch’s spouse. She does not, however, exude an air of elegance and grace; rather, she is a prickly, sensitive, and irritated queen. Everyone continued to upset her, so she felt more at ease. She is a queen who has been heard swearing and occasionally swallows her pride! She faces challenges every day of her life, but she keeps going because she cares about her children.
