"Umbrella" will revolve around the troublemaker princes and their mother Im Hwa Ryeong. The princes in the palace always cause headaches to the royal family. The queen, Im Hwa Ryeong will do her best to make them as decent crown princes. Unlike the usual elegance, a queen possesses, Im Hwa Ryeong is rather hot-tempered and sensitive.

"Umbrella" will reportedly be part of the Saturday and Sunday drama timeslot of tvN. It will have 16 episodes.
Kim Hye Soo will play the role of Im Hwa Ryeong, the queen of Joseon, wife of the great King, and the mother to troublemaker princes. The actress will portray the role of both the queen and a mother at the same time.
Kim Hae Sook will give life to the role of the mother-in-law of Queen Im Hwa Ryeong. Although he loves the King a lot, he doesn't have the same feeling toward his grandchildren, the princes.
Choi Won Young will play the role of the King named Lee Ho. He is the husband of Im Hwa Ryeong.
Meanwhile, the troublemaker princes will be played by Moon Sang Min, SF9's Chani, Yoo Sun Ho, and Kim Min Ki. They will showcase different kinds of personalities.
