Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan (2011)
后宫甄嬛传

Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan

the drama followed the story of Zhen Huan, one of the Emporer's concubines. she was selected together with her sister to join the palace. she started out being innocent, but gradually learnt through the hard way to fend for herself when she got caught up in the schemes between the Empress and the rest of the concubines. through deceit she finally became the new Empress, but drew suspicions to her loyalty.

despite the vast amount of characters, they each managed to stand out and make us hate or love them individually. and other than the stunning costumes and visuals, the twists and turns of the story was absolutely engaging! it had a serious and historical feel to it, and still came out as an addictive romance. the drama was one highly enjoyable show that focused on the Emperor's concubines like it was cursed.

  1. Hi Levian, how are you?

    I never really fancy Chinese soaps or shows but I have seen a few before. More with storyline like this might interest me more to know some part of history in a way.
