Story

A young girl and an empress.
Bound by a shared desire for revenge, the two will shake the mightiest empire the world has ever known.

After losing her mother and being torn far from her homeland, a young girl named Sitara is taken in by Fatima, a kind-hearted lady from a family of scholars.

“If you study and become wise, no matter what trouble befalls you, you’ll know the best way forward.”

Deeply moved by the words of Fatima’s son, Muhammad, Sitara comes to understand the possibilities and importance of knowledge and begins to deepen her education.
She dreams that one day, she might catch up with Muhammad, who has set off on a journey in pursuit of wisdom…

Meanwhile, under the reign of Emperor Genghis Khan, the mighty Mongol Empire continues its unstoppable march, conquering nation after nation and expanding its influence across the world. Before long, the tides of history reach the city where Sitara lives.

After losing everything to Tolui, the empire’s Fourth Prince, and being taken captive, Sitara resolves to use the only thing she has left, her intellect, to infiltrate the royal court and bring down the empire from within.

Though a flame of revenge burns within her heart, Sitara outwardly devotes herself to serving the empire. One day, she has a fateful encounter with Töregene, the sixth wife of the Third Prince, Ögedei. Haunted by a tragic past of her own, Töregene too carries a deep hatred for the empire within her heart.

Sitara and Töregene, two women who were never meant to meet. The moment they join hands, the wheels of fate begin to turn.

K-Beauty Brand HANDAM Launches Hydration-Focused Skincare Inspired by Korean Nature

Published

on

The Everyall Co., Ltd. introduces a three-product skincare collection centered on hydration, sensory textures, and ingredients inspired by Korea’s natural environment.

Wonju-si, South Korea, 24th Aug 2026 — Korean skincare brand HANDAM, developed by The Everyall Co., Ltd., launches its first skincare collection with a hydration-focused approach inspired by the purity and calm of Korean nature.

HANDAM expresses the idea of “holding and preserving beauty,” bringing together nature-inspired ingredients, modern skincare formulations, and a refined sensory experience designed to support balanced, healthy-looking skin.

At the center of the collection is Jeju Lava Seawater, a natural ingredient sourced from Jeju Island, combined with Aquaxyl™, a Centella Asiatica complex, Panthenol, and other skin-conditioning ingredients. The collection is designed around hydration and comfortable daily use, with textures created to feel fresh, lightweight, and easy to layer.

Three Products, One Hydration Ritual

  • HANDAM Hydrating Serum: A lightweight cream-in-serum formula featuring Rosa Rugosa Extract. It is designed to deliver a refreshing layer of hydration with a smooth, non-sticky finish.
  • HANDAM Hydrating Cream: A moisturizer inspired by a melting sherbet texture. The formula melts smoothly into the skin and leaves a fresh, moisturized finish without feeling heavy.
  • HANDAM Hydrating Sunscreen: A daily sunscreen developed with a moisturizing texture that feels comfortable on the skin and is designed to layer well under makeup.

A Sensory Approach to Hydration 

Rather than focusing on hydration as a single functional claim, HANDAM approaches it as a daily skincare experience. The serum, cream, and sunscreen are designed to complement one another through different textures and stages of a routine, allowing users to layer hydration without an overly heavy or sticky finish.

“Modern consumers are looking for skincare products that offer not only thoughtfully selected ingredients but also a comfortable sensory experience,” said a representative of The Everyall Co., Ltd. “Through HANDAM, we aim to translate the purity of Korean nature into a contemporary hydration ritual that feels simple, refined, and enjoyable in everyday life.”

Positioning HANDAM for Global K-Beauty Consumers 

As global interest in K-Beauty continues to expand, HANDAM plans to introduce its hydration-focused skincare philosophy to international consumers and expand its presence in global markets. The brand will position its first collection around a clear combination of storytelling inspired by Korean nature, modern formulations, and distinctive textures.

HANDAM’s debut collection marks the first step in building a broader skincare identity centered on hydration, comfort, and a contemporary interpretation of Korean beauty.

About HANDAM 

HANDAM is a Korean skincare brand developed by The Everyall Co., Ltd. The brand focuses on hydration-centered skincare inspired by Korean nature, combining carefully selected ingredients with modern textures and refined sensory experiences.
