Have you seen Mr Sunshine? I believe one of the best Asian period dramas.
That was my very first kdrama that got me hooked 4 years ago, it broke me. i then watched Iris and every drama of the ML, then Empress Ki and that mde me sob in last few episodes.
Worst female living as a male FL ever, way too feminine and so unrealistic with such a tiny body expected to be…
FL is very irritating when she switches from badass HY to useless HY, she treats ML as if he is stupid, I mean come on, she pretends she is still blind while dressed in stealth clothes. I odnt even know why she went into the ML's room if
there are pretty boys back in the days too lol. some guys (esp since all gender have long hair) are more dainty…
Still not in agreement. I haven’t read the novel, and yes, there were feminine-looking guys back then, but all her actions seem too feminine—how she holds him when he’s carrying her, her voice doesn’t resemble a typical male voice, and her wooziness feels overly female-like. I asked my son to watch it without knowing the story, and it didn’t take long before he asked if it was about a female pretending to be a male. You can even see the outline of a female chest, for goodness sake; other gender-benders have not been this reckless and obvious. Totally unrealistic.
Worst female living as a male FL ever, way too feminine and so unrealistic with such a tiny body expected to be as fierce as made out to be. Whoever cast the FL is mocking our intelligence; they don't make any effort whatsoever to give her any masculine acting whatsoever, female voice, smile, facials, flirting, omg, whatever. !!!!!
Ive just finished Princess Gambit, its pretty ok if you havent watched it already. Rebel Princess also I highly recommend. I love historicals but not too hot on wuxia.
They were so funny when they both found out ML was the 7th prince lol perfect facial expressions, I laughed all day watching it over and over again lol
OMG, the princess Junior is so narcissistic and up herself, she is not even remotely pretty. Who on earth would be attracted to such a vile, cruel mouth as hers??? AAAND hy dont they have lookouts outside the doors when trying to be secretive????? AAAND cant the daughters get a break??? All their betrothed or husbands have turned out the most evil men!!!! BUT I so love the older brother and her father, they are soooo funny!!! My best part of the drama was when they both found out from Mr Zhen that ML was the seventh prince, sooooo fuuunnyyy!!!!!
This shii is getting ridiculous...What kind of monster are you that you had to resort to such manipulative tactics…
She is doing my head in, I hate how she approaches him for help, then tells him in the same conversation when he asks questions, that it is not his concern. I would kick her to the kerb if I were him. Yes, she lived a horrible life, but it is not her place to use and manipulate people to survive. A lot of her grief is self-inflicted. She saves her maid, then sends her on an exhausting, dangerous trip (without a horse, mind you), hundreds of miles away to look for her brother! I am only watching for the good prince, the chancellor and his sister; everyone is too evil or bad acting.
up to ep 27 and I find it so irritating that in Chinese palace historicals, how easy it is for people to just waltz on in and kill people in prison and make it look like a suicide. FL is also getting on my nerves with her unintelligent lost in space look she has, and without any sensuality whereas ML is one of the hottest Chinese actors out, he really plays his romance parts really well, pit he does not get paired up with the actress he deserves.
Even though the subs are not that great, even if they were, the story is so full of gaps, it makes you wonder how the episodes seem to jump a whole story line and into the next. Really confusing. Also it is amazing how the princes wives dont seem to age, yet it has been 14 years since the series started.
Also I have reached past half-way of the series, and that Mongolian princess has amazingly gotten away with all her spying and scheming, always hidden in dark corners with her smirking smile. Can't wait to see her get busted. Irritating character that really does nothing but hang around like a third wheel everywhere. Has also managed to remain unmarried since she got there lol
Gosh that young emperor before Zhu Di is so arrogant and dumb.
I decided to stop watching it because I found the over-the-top humor unbearable. Although I used to enjoy it, I now prefer watching more serious content. I plan to pick it up again later when I am in a better mood. lol
Yes many of their historicals as well, but not a huge fan of Wuxia, which seems to be the theme atm with them. Though I just watched one of the best c-historicals ever - The Prisoner of Beauty which just had the right amount of humour which didnt affect the dark side like The Double which was over the top.
