lmao really? I knew the isekai thing became popular and that most manhwas use the same baseline, but I didn't know the "become queen instead of empress and later a korean girl appears magically out of nowhere to become the empress as well as the emperor's true love" became a thing. also with the emperor's right hand man being a dude with green hair in a low ponytail tied with a ribbon, and the guard happening to have red hair, too many things aligned for me to not at least think this artist is basing some of the manhwa off ae. i know a lot of manhwas copy each other, but i guess this one irked me bc ae is one of my favorite manhwas lol.

It doesn't seem like the Abandoned Empress at all. From the storyline and such.
I mean black-haired women and fall in love with the prince/emperor are a common thing in isekais; I mean this, Abandon Empress, that story with Adelaide and the Empress of the other world and I'm sure many more.
And besides a red-haired guard? There's the Emperor and the Female Knight, Abandoned Empress, Who made me a Princess, Reminiscence Adonis. Common thing.
Green-haired attendants? I mean I can feel the artist's pain to search for the color wheel and make so much efforts despite the deadline killing them, I'm lazy to do that. And since green is a basic color and commonly easy to use to distinguish who are the included support characters.
Come on, more appreciation and no comparison since this is basically far from Abandoned Empress. If the artist would have 'copied' the Abandoned Empress, they most likely used it as a base along with the thousands of isekai mangas/manwhuas (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ

Although they have a theme/circumstance (like every one of the manga/webtoon/manhwa/manhua of this particular sub genre of isekai/reincarnation) their execution is entirely different. To say they ripped off another author/artist is rude and disrespectful of both authors/artists work, time, and effort and just outright wrong.
this manhwa is waaaay too similar to abandoned empress. kinda feels like a discount ver ://
