Chinese Empress

Yes, EVERYTHING. Starting for the ONLY DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE WHICH IS DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY to deeper characters' analysis. If you want fairytales, go back to the ktrash produced which is even too comedy and unrealistic. I can ANALYSE a drama like every adult does.
This is a plot for adults, no place for laughter of lighthearted things which are chilidish. Why do you watch dramas if you are not able to reason on every detail? It's not entertainment. Luckiky China banned pure entertainment, brainless people not being able to analyse are not suited for dramas.

everything of the Chinese version is even better than the original.

Q60- 9 March 2026

is there Lee Min Ho in it?

it will be almost for sure

between 60+ and 70+ probably

Q58- 2 March 2026

in some months probably

not at all

Of course, because it's in Thai culture and tradition but this does not mean the only basis is Chinese original novel and Chinese original drama. Comparison is always needed since they have taken a very big name with an enormous fandom. And GMMTV has stated that they won't took from the bad comedy korean adaptation, so it's even useless to name it. Cast and staff need to put extra attention, there are not only the fandoms of each actor, but even us novel fans, to make happy.

a lowkey crush but not so important, he goes through it quite easily. Reverse harem means the whole cast or the majority of it loves FL, here is not the case. In the Korean remake it's even more, because except the crown price all of them loves FL

yes

the production had some conscience, they cut the photo of a bully from their 2024 promo of the script.... but the drama is still cringe and very childish. A better cast would have had a better result.

The original Chinese one is an heartbreaking tearjerker that luckily has an hopeful ending compared to the novel and even a second season, it's more adult and mature that the korean remake. I suggest both for a comparison, but if you like mature and realistic portrayal and love stories you will love the original. Yes, it will be a fun ride... towards tears but worth of it. The original one makes a ball of tears everytime i rewatch it, the remake makes me laugh... not to be disrespectful, but as a woman, watching a love story like a comic is cute but nothing mature... it's the approach that changes and I hope Thai remake will follow a matur approach

This is another remake of my favorite historical drama ever ( hoping it will be better than the failure korean remake). I'm glad about actors' work and GMMTV clarifying they will be based on Chinese original novel and Chinese original drama,
That's why I am following day by day their updates. We are almost there.
As a novel fan, you can't imagine how teary eyes our fandow was when they announced it on April 24th, 2024 ( yes, I remember the date because it was a big surprise for us).

Win said with quite certainty it will be aired in Q2 2026 ( april-june) but it's possible even Q3 ( july-september) but for sure this year

Q56- 23 February 2026
Total: between 60 or 70Q
Probably airing: from april to june, or from july to september

99% is Fourth

all of them are handsome and charming

Still no movie even raw version?
