Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
The Men of the Harem webnovel is getting a drama adaptation, and Suzy has been offered the role of Empress Latrasil Valentine Tarium. Her agency confirmed they received the offer but said the actor is still considering it.

After her lover Hyacinth betrays her, choosing the throne over their relationship, Latil becomes furious and heartbroken. But she can’t wallow in sorrow for long; her position as the new empress is fragile at best, and she still needs to uncover who orchestrated her father’s assassination. So Latil hatches a brilliant plan: with pressure mounting to find a husband, she goes one better and selects five consorts to form her harem. This move not only secures her rule but also ensures Hyacinth feels the same agony he inflicted on her.
