Mr. Queen broadly tells of the soul of a man in modern times who suddenly enters the body of a daughter of a high ranking Joseon dynasty. The incident began against the backdrop of present time.
Jang Bong-hwan (Choi Jin-hyuk) is an excellent South Korean Presidential chef. However, he was very arrogant and often played girls.
He accidentally got involved in political intrigue at the Presidential Palace (Blue House) which made him deal with the police.
Feeling innocent, Jang Bong-hwan avoided the policemen. He then had an incident which left him unconscious. Before passing out, he had expressed his desire to stay alive.
The trouble started when Jang Bong-hwan woke up. When his eyes opened, he was already in the body of Kim So-yong (Shin Hye-sun), the daughter of a high-ranking officer of the Joseon Dynasty.
Not only because of gender differences, Bong-hwan also had to think quickly to get back into his body because Kim So-yong would soon marry King Cheoljong (Kim Jung-hyun). He tried to create the same conditions as when the incident occurred, but always failed.
On the other hand, Bong-hwan who is now in Kim So-yong's body is also involved in royal politics. Queen Sunwon (Bae Jong-ok) was the wife of King Sunjo before Cheoljong, who died without children. Cheoljong became the "puppet king".
Meanwhile, KimJwa-geun (Kim Tae-woo) is Queen Sunwon's younger brother who has royal ambitions. Another problem also arose from the Jo Poongyang clan because they were eyeing the position of queen.
