宮心計: Beyond the Realm of Conscience

I just finished watching the BTROC trailer (Mandarin Version). I know...I know I'm late but you all know that I'm a huge fan of Raymond; therefore, I mostly follow his news. It was when I look for the Growing through Life trailer that I found the BTROC trailer as well.

I got to say that I wasn't putting much high hope on this because I don't like War and Beauty (Am I the only one?) and I usually don't like series about king and concubines fighting over him but this trailer took me by surprise. I was looking forward to this series because of my two favorite actresses, Charmaine and Tavia. Of course, there are Moses and Kevin as well as experience actresses like Michelle and Susanna. Now, I got to watch it. However, I haven't been following the news...so basically I don't know who plays who and what is what. All I saw was the Sales Presentation and I got to say that I love Tavia playing evil.

Anyway, back to the afterthought of seeing the trailer. I got really hype about it because I like the fact that it started off with friendship between Charmaine and Tavia. They started off from being just a minor role in the palace to becoming two of the main player of the fate of the palace. One plans to overturn it and the other tries to save it. I believe from the first scene that they grew up together with a promise to look out for each other...Now they turned into rivals/enemies.

Honestly, I really like Charmaine's costume at the very end, she looks so beautiful and elegant. Her character, I believe, should be the strong and righteous heroine who accepted what fate threw in her path and bite her teeth through it. However, I got to say that the trailer didn't say much about her, except the conflict surrounding her, but I like her character already. However, the most confusing thing was her relationship with Kevin and Moses. I believe she is in love with Kevin and Moses was in love with her but...then Kevin might/might not (probably the might not) died. The mystery is how Charmaine became Mose's concubine??? If truth be told, I would prefer if she stay faithful to Kevin. However, Moses love probably touch her in some way... By the way, I saw a very beautiful bed scene with Charmaine and...who? I can't tell if it is Kevin or Moses? (Rooting for Kevin) LOL! Yeah, I don't really root for Kings because they already have too many ladies to count.

To Tavia's side of the story, I think she is rather the more inner girl in the beginning and when she got her power she became more true on the surface. I don't really believe her to sacrifice herself for Charmaine instead I think she is rather a scheming type of girl. She had been dealt with the bad side in life, seeing the harsh reality of the palace from her low position. She did everything in her power to gain high power and position...and the simplest and fastest way is no other than seduce the most powerful man in the country, Moses. I can't wait to see this. Honestly, I really like Tavia's character because I always love me a evil pretty character. Haha! Plus there is the process of watching her turn evil is also a must because I dislike evil character simply because they are evil.

In addition, other than Charmaine & Tavia, I want to see Selena as well. I don't know much about her character but since she is the king's concubine and Tavia tried to poison her. I want to see what is her character like...

As for Kevin and Moses, I don't feel much for them because their conflicts are with the traitor and Charmaine...However, there is not much other their characters.

Overall, I can't wait to see it! It's the most anticipated for me in 2009!
