This work mocks, but at the same time it makes you cry and sympathize.

The first drama of the year that I give a 10/10.

The story is well-structured, logical, and multi-layered. It's full of jokes that only native Chinese people understand, so it's worth checking the comments on the internet.)
The only problem is that Prisoner of Beauty was released during its promotion and before its distribution.
Unfortunately, LJ N's ships collided. Many people can't differentiate between the two drama genres (satire or romantic drama) and are quite petty. (This is a fairly common human trait here on MDL, the site itself is extremely biased.)
The main characters did a great job in this drama. It's worth watching several times, the message is deep and relevant, and multi-layered.
I don't recommend it to those who are still sailing on TPOB or those who quickly skim through it to know what's going to happen.
The journey is the essence of this drama, The characters develop slowly and you can only love them 100% after episode 26.

Anyone who has seen a lot of C-dramas will recognize many of the plots (that are made fun of) in this drama. It is accompanied by a lot of giggles.

This work mocks, but at the same time makes you cry and sympathize with it.

If you don't like it, just move on... as LJN asked.

I really liked it.
