“Deep in the Realm of Conscience” in Final Stage of Post-Production
Filmed last summer, Deep in the Realm of Conscience <宮心計2·深宮計> is currently in post-production. Co-produced by TVB and China’s Tencent Penguin Picture, the Tang dynasty drama hopes to follow on the success of 2009’s Beyond the Realm of Conscience <宮心計> centering around scheming palace ladies.
The sequel boasts a new cast consisting of Steven Ma (馬浚偉) as Emperor Xuangzong and Nancy Wu (胡定欣) as his empress consort. Kenneth Ma (馬國明), Edwin Siu (蕭正楠), Chrissie Chau (周秀娜), Annie Liu (劉心悠), Michelle Yim (米雪), and Jacqueline Wong (黃心穎) also star.
Producer Mui Siu Ching (梅小青 ) shared new stills of Deep in the Realm of Conscience today and wrote, “In the latter part of post-production. Hope to deliver the best quality to repay everyone’s support.” With the release of the new stills, which showcase detailed costumes and luxurious sets, it appears that Deep in the Realm of Conscience will be greeting viewers soon.

Hope that Mrs Lau would not recycle story lines and scripts as what her husband did in the “Heart & Greed” series. Sometimes, I just don’t understand why they keep producing the same type of dramas. Do they know how to find new stories and come up with more updated scripts?
@lewismcchan Dramas centering around scheming palace ladies are still popular in Mainland China. Lots of HK dramas produced now try to cater to Mainland viewers as well. They’re not necessarily looking to break new ground, but repeat a past successful drama.
Miu produced several installments of Forensic Heroes and Heart of Greed because of past success.
@lewismcchan I’ve have the same feeling. I feel like it will be a very samey show.
I will watch it. But the costumes and sets… a high bar has been set by Tribes and Empires which admittedly had a bad storyteller but you can’t deny every shot, every scenery, every costume was lovingly made. And well acted as well. So basically Deep In The Realm of Conscience will be B production in the era of China’s huge money pumped into A production in terms of the looks. I don’t have much expectation, my only hope is please no Marge Simpson hairstyle. There’s only so much height a woman can take. And please keep the whole love scene kiss scene sex scene to minimum unless the actors can kiss better than just 2 people sucking the life force out of each other and rolling on bed. It’s a sexy era mind you but TVB will desexify it and just show us the mundane.
I am however excited about Steven Ma.
IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS ! <3 The original was soo good i remember always asking my parents if we could watch one more episode before bed time haha.
