Synopsis
Gabi is a 2012 South Korean film that follows an ostensible assassination plot of King Gojong , using coffee brewed by royal barista Tanya. The plan is masterminded by Sadako, a Joseon woman with adopted Japanese nationality, and aided by Ilyich, Tanya’s lover.
Inspired by the conspiracy theories about Gojong and the king’s well-known love of coffee, the movie’s title Gabi is a turn-of-the-century Chinese-character transliteration of "coffee". The film is based on author Kim Tak-hwan's historical fiction novel Noseoa Gabi .After his wife Empress Myeongseong is assassinated by the Japanese army and under threat of coup d'etat, Gojong the 26th king of Korea’s Joseon Dynasty briefly seeks refuge at the Russian consulate in 1896. While he is there, he tastes and falls in love with a bitter sweet drink that had yet to gain popularity in his homeland: coffee.
Upon returning to the throne, King Gojong hires the beautiful and cosmopolitan Tanya as his personal barista. Tanya becomes involved in a dangerous social circle that involves not only the Russian sniper Ilyich but also the mysterious socialite known as both Bae Jeong-ja and Sadako . With the Russian army hot on their trail, Tanya and her lover Ilych eventually become ensnared in a plot to assassinate King Gojong that is orchestrated by Sadako, a Korean-Japanese collaborator. Ilych becomes a spy to protect Tanya, who has begun to fall for Gojong while she makes his coffee every day.
With her intimate connection to the King, making a drink that could easily conceal poison, Tanya must decide if she will become a pawn in the political battlefield of late 19th century Korea
