Overview +
Navier, Empress of the Eastern Empire, has ruled beside Emperor Sovieshu, her husband and childhood friend. When he brings the runaway slave Rashta into the palace and demands a divorce, Navier accepts on one condition, that she be allowed to remarry Prince Heinrey of the Western Kingdom. A romance fantasy adapted from the web novel by Alphatart, directed by Cho Soo-won and written by Yeo Ji-na and Hyeon Choong-yeol. Shin Min-a plays Navier, Ju Ji-hoon plays Sovieshu, Lee Jong-suk plays Heinrey and Lee Se-young plays Rashta. The 10-episode Disney+ series launched its first four episodes on November 3, 2026, with two more every Wednesday through November 25.
The palace scenes were shot at Schleissheim Palace outside Munich, the garden scenes between Navier and Heinrey in the gardens of Kromeriz in the Czech Republic, and the street scenes in the old town of Kutna Hora. All three are heritage sites open to visitors, so they fit neatly into a trip linking Munich and Prague. The palace is closed on Mondays.

Where the garden scenes that bring Navier and Heinrey closer were filmed. Disney+ named the gardens of Kromeriz as the location, and the Czech Film Commission's list of the series' locations includes this Flower Garden. Together with the Archbishop's Palace it was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998. Opening days shrink in winter and the garden closes over the year-end holidays, so check the official opening hours first.
Kutná Hora historic town centre Czechia
The medieval silver-mining town where the street scenes were shot. The production dressed storefronts in the old town with Korean-language signs, setting the world of the series among the historic European facades. It lies east of Prague and makes an easy trip from the capital.
