The Red Empress

In a kingdom plagued by a curse, the ruling dynasty has been forced to adopt a female succession line, resulting in a series of empresses vying for power. The current empress, notorious for her brutal methods, has earned the nickname "Blood Empress" due to her penchant for executing men with whom she has intimate relations. Her days are filled with drinking, sleeping with various men, and ultimately, dispatching them. This cycle of violence is interrupted when she encounters a handsome and intelligent young man named Kanghee, who manages to capture her attention with his tales of literature. As she becomes increasingly drawn to him, the empress begins to reevaluate her violent ways, but can she truly trust this newcomer, or is he merely using her for his own purposes?
