Been watching this show for like 5 months and still on episode 37.. oh well. I recently heard that this show was subbed and featured on Netflix and HBO... But cut from 70+ episodes to only 6, 90 mins per episode. Must be a lot of work.
Well anyways, this show is so good, beats the new show Empress of China on a whole other level. And the costumes picked for the characters go so well, as well as the plot, character development, and quotes. I'm really into chinese dramas rather than those cheeky romantic k-dramas for some reason, like I find the King's Harem & the Inner Palace real interesting, to scheming and plotting, you learn SO much.
有利用价值的人才能活下去，好好做一个可利用的人，安于被利用，才能利用别人。
Direct translation: people who can be exploit can continue to live. Just be a good person who can be exploited, be content to be used, and take advantage on others.
在任何时候，都不要为不值得的人费时间，费精力
At any given moment, do not waste your time on those who aren't worth it.
人是活给自己看的，不是他人的一句话就能左右自己，让自己活出潇洒自我
We live for ourselves, don't let someone's words change who you are. Let yourself live more freely.
Just some quotes that I directly translated, there's more of the quotes of I would really love to add but the translating is complicated ;-;
Sun Li as Zhen Huan
*judging you*
Cried to this like 10 times, really reflects the loneliness of Zhen Huan, including all the other victims and antagonists in the Harem - they all just wanted to be loved.
