Chinese Empress

The website of the screenwriter confirmed 2026 as airing year. Win confirmed in an interview they are quite finished filming with only few Qs remaining but they are filming 2 or 3 Qs each time because of the tight schedule of the cast. He didn't confirm the Q2 like he did before.

they filmed it but they chose to cut it because the drama flopped

they won't and they can't

imagine not looking at how poor and shallow it gained regarding money that they had to cut their own actors because they were ill and perverted. Maybe the problem is the fandom, not the drama, denying it is to trash and a failure while still defending a cast airing a perv and a bully.

I comment it because this trashy shallow remake ruined the original Chinese one with too comedy and too unserious characters. People have serious problems in life and brain if they think an eclypse is magical and princes were so shallow, bi****hy and unserious like in the drama. lol. this is one of the reason it failed and will always be a failure. Watch the drama again making your brain work analysing each scene and you will see.

it's comedy, how can you survive in history without having studied it? lol. FL was mandatory ordered to know Gwangjong if she was intelligent and adult. If you defend her, it's he reason why wars always happen. History is mandatory in order to avoid the mistakes of the past, but I suppose you don't even know history.

Listen. Have you ever realised she is A KOREAN 25YO ADULT WOMAN ending in HER OWN NATION'S PAST, right? So she should have gone to school before starting working, right? So have you ever realised it's pure peak comedy that FL looks for Gwangjong when she met him at the end of episode 1 in the scene on the horse, right? If you really laugh at this without even understanding plot and character dynamics, it's YOU that have problems, not others. A drama is made to be UNDERSTOOD, and I suppose you understood 0 about the FL.

Emotions are conveyed, if you laugh at people being ignorant and stupid it's you that have a problem, because not normal people for stupid things or illitterate people.

What a nonsense. FL died in a cringe and ridiculous nonsense way like 10th prince and others, and there is no reason in the whole drama to cry. Do you really cry for a FL stupid and ignorant in history who looks for 4th prince the whole drama while she should have studied history at school and knowing the succession in the throne? What a stupid statement you made. Yes, one of the worst drama without any coherence nor sense of plot and history. Yes, people DO NOT CRY for this cringe, it's a fact.

Ruyi is my second fav Qing dinasty drama just after Scarlet Heart.
I understand your point, but the point here is that Zhang Xiao slowly become a real Qing dinasty woman. She does not consider cheating about the 8th Prince because he has urequited love for Ruolan, it's like a marriage for interests. She tries to save him knowing the events in the future, she doesn't compromise. I don't know where you are at now, but if you remember how her words about equality will be remembered, later you will see how she herself will change.
4th Prince is quite interested because at the beginning she is naive to care for him. In the novel she says " there are 2 people i have to keep attention in order not to make them angry: Kangxi and 4th Prince".
With 14th Prince is more like fighting but caring, they don't have each other but the don't go well with each other at the beginning. You will see later.
It's everything related to Zhang Xiao's perception as Maertai Ruoxi, from a still modern woman to a Qing one.

because people are unable to watch it clearly, they cry because the idiot machist handsome man dies, not because it's something making them cry.

Watched it raw version while waiting for someone to sub it. As a Shinsengumi hardcore fan, I am satisfied in the realistic description and quite follow the manga closely. It hurts knowing what will happen, and already happened, since the very beginning. I'm glad they respected the historical dated very closely, even though it's even more heartbreaking.
I hope some fansubs can take it and sub it, because shinsengumi deserve even more recognition. Can't wait for the series now

cry where? lots of people did not cry

please, korean remake is a laughingstock, no one can cry. And this will follow Chinese original novel and Chinese original drama which are far superior. They won't change the ending, because the plot is sad. They will either have a hopeful ending like Chinese drama and super tragic like the novel. We novel fans weill protest if they change the ending. We need tragedy

Agree with you in everything, it's a very adult drama if you look it closely

adapted from a novel

better skinny and chubby.

Giving an opinion based on what, a blabbering about personal tastes? I respect your opinion, but denying the reality is not respecting others not speaking for the sake of the drama. The reality is that no one likes it compared to the original and it was a failure. If you and others like it does not change the reality. My opinion is based on deep analysis of frames, dialogues, comparisons and details and based on reality, not daydreaming fairytales like yours. There is no need to bash anyone, but there is no need to deny the reality too.

wow such an ignorance. A drama is successful when the rating is high and fans are dying to buy everything official, it's all about money dear. This cringe trash failure will always be a flop when fans watch it illegally and it took 9 years to have it internationally and in a few languages. fans do not matter if they don't spend on the drama. Chinese original Scarlet Heart was so impactful that its rating was over the moon in less than 1h, and it gains more than moon lovers had ever gained. And you are shamelessly defending a drama in which the actor for the king was s rap****st and the one for 14th prince was a bully, this says a lot about the kind of person you are. This drama is a trash flop, no matter ignorants could say.

The original Chinese novel is adapted in 2011 Chinese original drama 99% faithful to the novel. Have you ever read it? I read it tons of times, so please, if you can't read Chinese don't talk. OF COURSE the original is far superior, and i suggest to cure craziness if you cried over this cringe remake.
