CONS: 1. Some storylines not fleshed out 2. Some characters don't receive the punishment they deserve 3. Main FL actress not quite convincing as clever, independent woman
PROS: 1. ML is charming as always 2. Even though there is drama the overall tone was rather relaxed. Sometimes that doesnt work for me but I must have watched this at the right time. 3. Main CP growth was handled with care 4. I thought the OST was particularly beautiful
Random thought: The dark romance lover in me sorta wanted the 2ML to get his act together and earn back his MeiMei properly. 😘
Parts of this I really liked and other parts I loathed from the depths of my soul. I think I hate-watched it to finish it.
One nice thing was that the main royal family actually just wanted to be a family. They trusted and supported each other. It was everyone else being manipulative around them that made everything so hard.
I stopped watching after episode 20 two weeks ago, and now I'm torn about whether to continue. Don't get me wrong—the…
Probably blasphemous because this was well loved but I found it sorta boring. The last 2 episodes are satisfying though so it does even out to be one of the better 2024 dramas. Maybe ff a bit?
Probably a dumb question but I'm having trouble finding the answer. Was this split into 2 parts? Or is it planned to be a multi season thing?
The show subtitles say Season 1 so i wasnt sure if it was like Lost You Forever where it is 1 story but had more than 60 episodes so they tried to slim it down and break into parts? Or are they hoping that in this big world of Dafeng they can tell multiple adventures?
I'm sorry if this is answered elsewhere. Thanks for your help!
I echo most of the other comments. This was a totally enjoyable cotton candy fluff piece. In fact the FL was clever, competent at her job, and respected (*even by her frenemies*) which was cool! But they tried for more drama at the end and fumbled from like episode 20 to the end.
Thankfully it is short so no real loss but I did rate lower than I anticipated.
I didn't find it as bad as some of the complaints in other comments. FL was definitely not as babyish as other modern cdramas I have seen.
I will say the comment about FL being unfaithful is entirely incorrect. The person she called in ep 21 was directly involved in a situation and had nothing to do with her feelings about the ML. Woman CAN talk to other men platonically.
This is silly and cartoony. But it was the exact sort of unserious fun I needed right now between all the 2024 40 episode cdramas that start strong and then sorta fizzle.

Viki is only up to ep 32 in my area right now so no spoilers plz 😉

Does it find its rhythm in a few more episodes?

This show is worth it for Leon but overall pretty forgettable. Definitely fast forward worthy towards the end . I would love to see him as a ML again!
I guess it leaves it open for more adventures but just feels like a massive clam jam (*lady cock block 😜*)
Very mature MC love is always a plus! Also some new younger actors I wouldn't mind seeing in more shows!

Easy one time watch.
I enjoyed it and I love the ML voice!
I know lakorns tend to have lots of yelling but this one veered into screeching and everyone felt extra loud most of time.
