SBS has officially revealed the first teaser poster for its upcoming historical fantasy drama My Royal Nemesis, immediately catching the attention of K-drama fans. The new series stars Im Ji-yeon as a notorious villainess from the Joseon era who mysteriously finds herself transported into modern-day South Korea. The intriguing concept blends historical storytelling with a modern setting, promising a drama full of chaos, humor, and unexpected twists.

The teaser poster highlights Im Ji-yeon in traditional Joseon-era attire, surrounded by elements that hint at both historical and contemporary worlds.

My Royal Nemesis will air as a new Friday–Saturday drama on Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS), with its first episode scheduled to premiere on May 8 at 9:50 PM KST. The drama is expected to combine genres such as historical fantasy, romance, and comedy as the main character adapts to modern society while dealing with her infamous reputation from centuries ago.

Alongside Im Ji-yeon, actor Heo Nam-jun is also set to appear in the drama, adding further anticipation among viewers. Fans are especially excited to see Im Ji-yeon return in another strong role following her globally recognized performance in the hit drama The Glory.

With its unique storyline and strong cast, My Royal Nemesis is already generating buzz online. The drama’s premise of a Joseon-era villainess suddenly living in modern Korea opens the door to comedic cultural clashes, dramatic conflicts, and possibly even an unexpected redemption arc. As the premiere date approaches, viewers are eagerly waiting for more teasers and details about the story and characters.
