Overview
After a tragic accident, a powerful fixer uses her skills to transform a civil rights lawyer into the next mayor — and take down her former employer.
Queenmaker examines the mechanics of influence within the cutthroat world of Seoul politics. The narrative focuses on the collision between high-stakes conglomerate interests and the gritty, uncompromising landscape of a mayoral election. It treats campaigning not as a democratic exercise but as a tactical operation where every move is calculated to dismantle entrenched power.
Kim Hee-ae anchors the drama as the strategist behind the curtain. The tension builds from the friction between corporate hierarchy and the pursuit of political reform. By centering the power struggle on the specific relationship between a fixer and a candidate, the series emphasizes the personal sacrifices required to change a city. It is a calculated look at how justice is negotiated in spaces dominated by money and ambition.
