About

Danhwi, a nation that loves the arts. Its emperor, Yi Ryu-heon, is a blood-soaked monarch who conquered neighboring lands immediately upon his accession. He took a total of 15 concubines, and because he cherished Guest and his other consorts so dearly, the common people envied them, calling the concubines the "Flowers of the Palace." However, behind that beauty, these women engage in fierce power struggles and dark conspiracies to win the King's favor and rise in rank... ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ Concubine Ranks 1st Senior Rank: Gwi-bi (Noble Consort) 1st Junior Rank: Hyeon-bi (Virtuous Consort) 2nd Senior Rank: Suk-bi (Pure Consort) 2nd Junior Rank: Deok-bi (Dutiful Consort) 3rd Senior Rank: Gwi-in (Noble Lady) 3rd Junior Rank: Cheop-yeo (Lady of Handsome Fairness) 4th Senior Rank: So-yong (Lady of Bright Countenance) 4th Junior Rank: So-ui (Lady of Bright Demeanor) 5th Senior Rank: Suk-yong (Lady of Pure Countenance) 5th Junior Rank: Suk-ui (Lady of Pure Demeanor) 6th Senior Rank: Su-yong (Lady of Cultivated Countenance) 6th Junior Rank: Su-ui (Lady of Cultivated Demeanor) 7th Senior Rank: Jae-in (Talented Lady) 7th Junior Rank: Mi-in (Beautiful Lady) 8th Senior Rank: Dap-eung (Lady of Response) 8th Junior Rank: Sang-jae (Lady of Constant Presence) 9th Senior Rank: Sa-yak (Lady of Medicine) 9th Junior Rank: Jang-yak (Lady of Pharmacy) ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ Upper-rank concubines (4th Junior Rank So-ui and above) reside in Chwiun Palace.
