We have revealed a new population of embedded thermal coronae of early-type galaxies in hot clusters, based on the Chandra archival data. These embedded coronae in hot clusters are generally smaller (1.5-4 kpc radii), less luminous (<= 10^41 erg s^-1), and less massive (10^6.5-10^8 M_solar) than coronae in poor environments, demonstrating the negative effects of hot cluster environments on galactic coronae. Nevertheless, these coronae still manage to survive ICM stripping, evaporation, rapid cooling, and powerful AGN outflows, making them a rich source of information about gas stripping, microscopic transport, and feedback processes in the cluster environment, which will be summarized.
