Currently at episode 7. I remember starting the first episode a long time ago. The idea was interesting, but I found it really boring, so I dropped it. After months, I decided to pick it up again. There were many scenes that I had to skip because of how embarrassed I was feeling. After episode 2, it's so fun. I wish we had more FLs like this—who are really smart and genuinely funny! I don't think the King loved the FL before. In these last two episodes, he seems to have changed, but I don't think it's because of love, but mostly guilt. He feels guilty because she tried to unalive herself. The concubine at the start seemed to be a good character, but as the story goes on, she becomes more "bad."After the "FL" went back to her world, it became so boring to watch. I skipped a lot, but after episode 14, it seems to be getting good again.
I just finished it! Before sharing my overall thoughts, I want to say that one of the main reasons I dropped this was because I had seen many people saying that the ending was bad. The ending it's kind of bad but i guess i expected better. Another thing I saw many people discussing was whether the King, at the end of the day truly loved her. I think I would say both yes and no. I need to think about it more and read other people's opinions to decide. Overall, this was good, and I don't regret watching it, but I believe 20 episodes weren't necessary. It doesn't feel dragged, but I'm not sure. This was good, but there were a lot of scenes that I skipped. Also, i have watched many kdramas of the female actress. She did such a good job!!

THE BEST
Mr. Queen is my first experience watching a historical kdrama and ever since i’ve watched it, i feel a constant void that no historical kdrama have filled soo far.. It’s simply the best historical time-travel body swap kdrama that there is.Initially, i thought it was just a historical comedy but the royal place schemes and secrets had me sitting on the edge of my seat. They incorporated main character’s cooking skills into the story in such a brilliant way. The macdonaldo had me choking. The drama is fast paced and every episode ends on a cliffhanger. I was blown away by the plot twists . And 20 episodes never felt this short before. Usually I get bored around episode 10 of a kdrama but this drama is the exception.
Apart from the story, acting is top notch especially by our Queen. Absolutely lover her badass attitude. The king did well too. Our lady choi deserves a chef’s kiss. Top level comedy and top level chaos. A 10 /10 for sure.

Definitely well scripted
Never a fan of historical dramas but watching this because of Shin Hye Sun. I loved the comedy element of this drama. It is great that Jo Hwa Jin managed to pull herself back before she went down the wrong route, that is definitely a plus point for me.But i wished that the the queen kim so young had a little more character after switching back, although i did see a little of Jang Bong Hwan in her! Definitely love the friendship between the palace maid, court lady and the the queen!!
Definitely a great drama to watch! Not one episode was boring! There are equal parts of romance, intense and comedy in this drama so whats there to not like right?

Will leave you laughing
I have rewatched this show several times now because it brings me such joy and entertainment. The first time I turned it on I actually was having a very hard time getting through the beginning and turned it off. But on my second attempt I forced myself to get through the first episode and then found myself hooked. Now I like to rewatch it by fast forwarding to all my favorite parts to get some smiles between other dramas.The two main characters really shine here, especially So Yong that pulls off playing a man in a woman's body so hilariously well. From the way she speaks and the inflection in her tone to the way she moves her body, her acting here is superb. Even Cheol Jong was convincing as the spy hiding behind the spoiled puppet king persona and he grows on you with each passing episode as he grows and changes while interacting with the Queen. You don't take this show seriously at any point but it is just fun. The character development is executed so well and the pacing of the storyline keeps you interested and moving forward.
This is not a show you watch for accuracy, believability, or depth but for pure enjoyment and that is exactly what you will get out of it. You'll laugh and have fun at the interactions between the King and Queen and at the over the top ways the show pokes fun.

MUST WATCH ? Best drama of Shin Hye-sun!!
This is different kind of gender swap story. At first when I was reading the synopsis, I though it was weird and absurd. Basically a present day male chef trapped in the body of a queen from Joseon era. However despite the storyline, Shin Hye-sun nailed her character so well!!! The way she portrayed her character's identity crisis surpassed my imagination. Her facial expressions and movements alone are enough for you believe that she is a man in a girl's body. Kim Jung Hyun and the supporting casts did not disappoint. I never expected this period drama to be so hilarious. Watch it if you need a good laugh and be in awe of Shin Hye-sun i promise you won't regret it!!!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
exchange of souls
Mr.Queen ? I saw this series a few days ago, it is a new concept but I can guess what will happen next but I didn't expect it to end like this ( climax)Shin Hye-sun Acting was very natural like ,not everyone can act like a man is in a woman's body but she acted well. and she is a huge strength for this series I can't stop laughing when I watch this series
Kim Jung-hyun is second strength He gave as much as he could give to that role
strength
1. new concept
2. laughter
3. heroine acting
4. comedy .
weaknesses
1 . predictable screenplay
2 . songs a music could have been better
I am sure you can enjoy this series a hundred percent guarantee

FANTASTIC WATCH
I'm going to miss this drama! It was a good thing that I decided to check it out. The story was fun; I am usually not fond of historical dramas but this one has an interesting twist in it. I love the blend of comedy, romance, and historical aspects to it. It's like the PERFECT merge of present time with the historical period. The little incorporation of modern terms through the soul of Jang Bo Hwan, was the most entertaining part; how he acted as himself in a totally different period and in a different body that causes confusion and curiosity among people lmao. However at times, I felt like it was draggy and 20 episodes was too long for me, but later realized, it was not enough because I grew fond of it. The story was well written and well delivered. For the cast, kudos! It was a perfect idea to cast Shin Hye Sun as the female lead. She owned every characteristic of the two different personas she played- from being an elegant queen to being the quirky crazy person that was stuck in the past. She's really so good that I can easily say she's one of my faves now. The other actors were good choice too, specially Na In Woo, I had a little SLS in this drama. At first, I was rooting for him and the queen but then, main leads happened so... Anyway, I think everyone was so cute (I don't even know how to describe them lol) but none of them was hated by me on a different level. I kinda feel empty now that I finished this drama. For the people who's looking into checking this out, do it right NOW, this will become one of the greatest decisions you would ever make in your kdrama life!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
perfeito
a história é muito boa, a atuação é muito boa, a trama te prende do início ao fim. sem defeitos, já sabia do final e achei que ficaria chateada mas acabei não ficando tanto assim e só aceitei. a química dos atores foi incrível, o desenvolvimento dos personagens foi ótimo e as amizades e momentos cômicos simplesmente perfeitos!a história se trata de um homem da atualidade que ao fugir sofre um acidente e fica entre a vida e a morte e acaba trocando de corpo com a futura rainha da era Joseon.

Extraordinary performed satire
Impressive drama, worth watching because of the amazing cast, great acting of all actors and the unusual style of story telling. Absolutely adorable with all its absurdity and ridiculously bittersweet comic situations, which give many laughter in the midst of the serious issues. It starts as an excellent strong satire, softens at the end and the ending is not as remarkable as desired, but the truth is - the ending didn't manage to change my impression of the whole drama at all.To understand this drama and get fully entertained and really really laugh, some knowledge about Joseon era needed. That's why I don't recommend it as a first historical K-drama, unless you already know Joseon history from other sources different than dramas.
