The Princess Weiyoung

What else can you say about this love story, but compelling, I literally binged watched this for only a few days. I never have cried, laughed and was gripped to the edge of my seat. Loved the actors, scenes, cinematography was exquisite and the historical outfits. It was like reading an amazing novel and you could not put it down. I LOVED IT, so sad it is finished.

Loved this show but don't understand why they try and pass girls as men. Breast are hard to hide and voices are feminine... good family show.

I thoroughly enjoyed the show, but I think the character of Tuo Ba Yu is absolutely the highlight, even overshadowed the male lead. This is an cunning and ambitious man who could sacrifice anyone in the world to achieve his goal, except for one woman. Even he is a villain, I can't help being intrigued and care about this character. The actor did a fantastic job playing this role!

After ending the series I kind of felt like I've watched a super long chinese version of Romeo and Juliet. So yes, the plot isn't new and the amount of times the female lead gets framed or is in danger is kind of ridiculous. BUT: that doesn't really matter. My heart won over my mind. I was CONSUMED by this series. The acting is great, the chemistry between several of the series' couples is indescribable and you go through every emotion possible: frustration, happiness, sadness, devastation... you name it, this series delivers.

Conclusion: is this a rationally good series? Nope, but if you need shows that are emotional as hell, then this is definitely the one for you.

I enjoyed the cheeky interplay between several of the characters...love everything about the settings and that genre. What a bonus to be able to brush up on my Mandarin. Netflix rocks with the subtitles .
