The Queen's Gingko Tree
Description
Kang Seulgi, a Korean-American archaeology student from Harvard, travels to South Korea to research her thesis on the nation's first female monarch, Queen Joohyun. However, an unexpected twist sends Seulgi back in time to the Joseon Dynasty, where she meets the very queen she has been studying.
As Seulgi steps into the past, she discovers that Queen Joohyun is far more than the distant figure of her studies. Beneath the regal facade, Joohyun reveals layers of strength, vulnerability, and passion that challenge Seulgi's understanding of history.
