Sound of the Desert (2014)

Sound of the Desert is the prequel to Cloud Song.
Cloud Song, although has different costumes and actors portraying each character, is written by Tong Hua also. Both series are great, so far.

Both leads were raised by wolves. In "The sound of the desert", Jin Yu (Cecilia Liu), an orphan girl of Xiongnu ethnicity, was raised by wolves in the desert, until a Han Chinese decided to adopt her.

Both feature strong female lead and very romantic love story. The female lead in rule the world also loved another before her main love interest came along.

Different storyline and plot but if you want to see a love triangle where the female lead falls for the second male lead first but got together with the main male lead later on, this is the one for you.

Love triangle is kind of similar.

Interesting story.

Good cast.

Playful FL and strong ML, who always protects the FL from the beginning and later falling in love with her.

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... :)
