Queen Woo narrates the captivating and grand saga of Queen U from the ancient kingdom of Goguryeo, who made history by ruling twice as a queen – a unique accomplishment. Tragedy strikes when King Woo Hee, her husband, unexpectedly passes away, leaving Queen U in a precarious position. Faced with chaos and disorder, she swiftly takes decisive steps to restore order and peace within the kingdom.
In summary, the queen finds herself at the center of attention from multiple princes and five tribes, all eager to seize more power. Faced with this power grab, her primary duty is safeguarding her tribe and family. To ensure their survival, she must adhere to the levirate marriage custom, meaning she must marry one of her late husband’s younger brothers and place one on the throne within a short timeframe of twenty-four hours. This task presents her with numerous obstacles as she navigates through the complex web of power struggles and family ties.
