The Song of Glory (2020)

The series is produced by the same producers and crew as The Princess Weiyoung.
The overall plot is quite similar:
- Main actress is mistaken as a daughter of a wealthy family (the real daughter sacrifices herself/gets killed and ask the main actress to find her family)
- Main actor and actress don't know each others real identities at first and become friends
- Main actress wants revenge for her family by killing the main actor, but finds out they are actually friends, when they discover each others real identities

- strong female lead
- wants to take revenge for something
-very similar personality
- similar supporting cast member that wants to help the female lead.

>Both dramas female leads hide their identity
>Both Female leads hate male lead in the beginning
>Both are set in same time line
>Even the poster looks the same lol

Just like in Song of Glory...The two leads are always helping each other with a case most if not all of which are related to the palace in some way.

It always gives the same vibes as Song of Glory just a little lighter than the former but still contains a lot of mysteries and intrigue with the leads inadvertently solving them.

Also, they too end up married as well due to circumstances.

Both male leads are princes with honourable and strong characters, physically and intelectually that protect the female leads when need it, support them when needed it and match them in wits, skill and strategic thinking. All leads in their own way aim for peace.

Love and betrayal, political upheavals and court rivalries, fierce battles fought at the war front are features shared by these two epic productions.

Filmed in subdued colour palettes, both feature strong protagonists and antagonists whose seemingly endless machinations are played out with frightening deftness and devastating consequences.

Based on historical events, these dramas represent intense viewing that demands your absolute attention.

Both contain a strong female character whose looking for revenge and a male lead who is a good strategist

ML and FL aim to reform the country. LoLZ is better than TSoG because it's less confusing.

I think this is ZLY's first main role and she did it well.

FL made the Khitan kingdom a rival to the Song Dynasty. She was an excellent administrator and decision maker who ruled as a regent for her young son.

similar plot with smart female lead seeking revenge and taking another persons identity in order to complete their goal of finding the truth.

Strong antagonists who are also top ranking court officials. Conspiracies in grabbing power, illegal manufacturing of private arms. Protagonists need to expose antagonists but difficult to assemble enough solid evidences to prosecute antagonists who are cunning and devious.

Strong female lead with dual identities. Badass as a fighter, but also femine and super pretty in imperial attire.
In The Song of Glory, the female lead is the noble's family lost daughter. She's raised by assasin so she's a strong fighter with cold and blunt personality. She will become emperor's concubine later.

Male and Female leads have not discovered each other's real identities for more than 10 episodes. Male lead has brother who is also in love with female lead. Male lead is suspicious of brother. Mother of male lead is also the antagonist helping the brother.

Both dramas are chinese historical with 2 cunning leads.

The prince that is older and meets in the FL in disguise and the FL that is younger and also in disguise. They secretly work together and have good chemistry.
Both princes pretend to be sick / obedient only to come out stronger in politics.

Overall they have a similar feel although TROP has better cinematography and live recording, whereas TSOG is dubbed.

FL in TSOG is physically stronger than TROP, it also has more romance.
