Both are breathtaking dramas with excellent acting, direction and scenery. Both should be required viewing for drama addicts - hehehehe.

Similarities between both dramas
-love triangle
-strong female lead
-FL ends up with second ML
-FL cares about both male leads till the end
-storyline is a bit similar
Both the dramas are really well acted by their respective actors/actresses. Empress Ki is a korean drama and it has much satisfying ends to the villians unlike in sound of the desert drama.
Empress ki was a much better drama for me.

Cecilia Liu plays a flirty and brave free spirited character in this too. She's a wolf girl or an orphan raised by wolves.

The same artistic feel. The plot is adventurous and leaves your heart and feels satisfied. Both are some of my favorite Wu Xia!!!

*Strong, Kickass FLs
*FL characters growth, from naïve to a force to be reckoned with...
*Romance, duh
*Mid-length Historical C-drama.
*Innocent initial relationships which don't work.
*Isolated FLs drawn into a great power-struggle.

LOHM is like marmite, if you can ignore the unbelievable cross-dressing and can take the midway switch to action. A decent Mulan remake. SOTB, perfect for anyone with second lead syndrome... kind of. Just give them a go, and wait for (underrated) LOHM to warm up before you marmite it... :)
