Not for FirstTimers , It’s Way Too Perfect
The Prisoner of Beauty is definitely one of my favorite Chinese historical dramas, starring Liu Yuning and Song Xue’er. I think the storyline is really clear and knows exactly where it’s going. The female lead is portrayed as intelligent and composed she doesn’t act impulsively, which I love. Meanwhile, the male lead is someone who knows his purpose and doesn’t judge people right away. He observes, analyzes, and makes decisions based on what he sees himself.
This makes the entire drama feel very calming to watch. The pacing is light, smooth, and really easy to follow. In my opinion, this drama is perfect for viewers in general it’s well crafted and enjoyable. But strangely enough, I wouldn’t recommend this drama to someone watching a Chinese historical drama for the first time. Why? Because this one is too beautiful. I’m worried it will set the bar too high, and people will expect all historical dramas to be this smooth when in reality, many of them are complicated, messy, and hard to follow.
Honestly, The Prisoner of Beauty is one of the best dramas in terms of plot clarity, emotional flow, and watchability. It’s incredibly easy to understand and so enjoyable that you’ll want to rewatch it over and over again. All of the supporting characters are great. They’re solid, reliable, and help the story move in such a satisfying way.
In short, I don’t even know what else to say this drama is just that good. Super recommended, and 100% rewatchable.
