TV Review: Mr Queen (2020) (Fantasy-Comedy)

Mr Queen (철인왕후)
2020
20 episodes
M
Fantasy-Comedy
Netflix

After waking up in the body of a 19th-century queen, a chef must navigate the royal court and find a way back to the present — and his own life. (Synopsis)

Mr Queen was a fun historical romp of a comedy. I liked the premise and I thought the actors all performed well in their roles. Meanwhile, the story was interesting and held my attention throughout. Part of me wished to have had a little more time back in the present at the end, to see if Jang Bong-hwan was changed by his experiences in the past, but at the same time, that might have made the show drag on too long. Overall, though, this series had a good blend of action, emotion and humour and I am giving it 4.5 stars.
