The Prisoner of Beauty

Both Kill My Sins and The Prisoner of Beauty share a lot of core themes that make them stand out: intelligent leads, political struggles, intense chemistry, trauma-driven motivations, and visually stunning costume drama aesthetics.

- Both feature Liu Yu Ning as the ML.
- In both the ML is ruthless and hostile in the beginning.
- In both the FL is treated as a prisoner at first.
- In both the FL is cunning and resilient.

Both dramas are chinese historical dramas coming from the same director "Deng Ke" and the same screenwriter "Nan Zhen".

Both The Prisoner of Beauty and Legend of the Female General share a historical setting and focus on strong, intelligent female leads who navigate political intrigue and personal challenges. They both combine romance with action, strategy, and dramatic tension.

The political intrigue is intriguing so much, many plot twists in both dramas, both female leads are smart and bold and a bit kunning.. The male leads in both are a kind of obsessed and yandere, the plot is well written and the set is similar as well as the cgi and the characters setting.

Both dramas tell the marriage life of leads so they both give slice of life vibe. While TPOB involve arranged marriage between enemies, TSOFML involve marriage between friends(?). Leads in the dramas are equally smart and the ML are good fighter

Feng Miao Jun, a princess of the fallen Anxia Kingdom, crosses paths with Yun Ya, a cruel master from Wei. Despite initial distrust, their fates intertwine. Together with Master Mo Ti Zhun and Saintess Han Yue, they become close allies in their battle against the Heavenly Demons. Through trials, love, and mutual support, they grow into powerful beings capable of facing all challenges.

The same handsome male lead. They are both S+ drama. Great story, amazing cast, beautiful eyes catching costume and set.

- Enemies to lovers
- The FL and ML hate and distrust each other in the begining
- In Love and Crown FL is seeking revenge for what was done to her master
- In The Prisoner of Beauty ML is seeking revenge for what was done to his clan
- Both dramas are slow paced and you get to know characters gradually
- Lots of schemes and misunderstandings
- Strong and very intelligent FL
- Protective and emotionless ML that actually cares a lot

- King ML that's spoiled and aloof and very devoted to FL
- Tough as nails FL that are as scheming as ML (if not more)
- Angsty love story
- Palace and political intrigue (BH is more palace-intrigue while TPoB is more war-focused)
- Similar situations where one of the leads was screwed over by the family of the other.

Honestly... If you went into The Prisoner of Beauty and were disappointed by the bait-and-switch where it turned into a slapstick romcom, then definitely give Bloody Heart a try. BH really commits to the angsty romance and darker themes all throughout. It's also less draggy.

They are both based on rebirth novels where the female lead has to scheme her way out of the problems that happened in her first lifetime.

Both are Chinese historical dramas
Both are upcoming dramas
I recommend Brocade Odyssey to those who liked The Prisoner of Beauty Reviews.
