Research direction
Start with the editable copy of the current Julia mode in the linked CodeSandbox and compare its multiline interpolation cases with the reported behavior. Use the sandbox test cases to verify that encountering an inner right parenthesis no longer breaks syntax highlighting, including the final interpolation-closing parenthesis.

Hi!
Using the built-in julia mode, string interpolation inside a multiline string seems to break the syntax highlighting whenever any right parenthesis ) is encountered, not just the final one that closes the interpolation. Example:

I had a little go at it but I have to learn more about Monarch before I can be of any use here. Here's a codesandbox with some more test cases, and an editable copy of the current julia mode included with monaco-editor for easy experimenting.
