The Red Palace

Seventeen-year-old Hyeon is a palace nurse in 1758 Joseon who has earned her position through hard work and study, and who mostly wants to keep her head down and win her estranged father's approval. That plan collapses when someone murders four women in a single night, and the prime suspect is Hyeon's closest friend and mentor.

Determined to prove her mentor's innocence, Hyeon teams up with Inspector Seo Eojin to hunt down the real killer, and the investigation drags her deeper into the tensions between what her parents and society expect of her and what she actually wants for herself. The case, inspired by the real history of Crown Prince Sado, exposes a monarchy's abuses of power along the way.
