Straight laced ML + Mischievous FL = unusual arrangement
Nothing new here. Classic RomCom on a traditional setting. ML was a straight laced no non sense prince with a special condition. FL is a mischievous street savvy girl. They were fated. They complete each other.They met, had an unusual arrangement, fell in love and then they found out that he was involved with her family's death. Sounds familiar? With a little political/palace power struggle on the side and some twist and turns along the way..
Cast did a good job. Not much back story but it was ok, plenty of mini entertaining story from supporting characters.

If you consider holding hands In public is not taboo. Cute drama!
After watching this drama, I read some comments and realized how differently people perceive it. For me, it deserves a solid 9 rating.I recall from my previous review that physical touch is considered a taboo in China, Korea, and Japan. Therefore, a story that revolves around constant touching, even if it's just holding hands in public, would undoubtedly offend some viewers.
However, I had a different reaction. I found the concept to be original and charming. Some people argued that they felt uneasy because the male lead was imposing himself on the female lead. But, from my perspective, I didn't see much of that. Although he discovered that touching her brought him sensations he had never experienced before, including romantic feelings, he was very insistent on her staying with him. But, honestly, I didn't see any forced seduction. It began with a mutual agreement and quickly developed into mutual love.
The female lead, Bu Guan Jin, left me feeling undecided about her performance. On one hand, she portrayed her character's kind and naive personality exceptionally well, which was impressive. However, on the other hand, I found the chemistry between her and the male lead to be average and not particularly noteworthy.
The director seemed to emphasize her petite figure a lot throughout the drama, which at times felt unnecessary. While the character didn't require a beautiful actress, I personally would have preferred someone more aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Maybe there was an issue with her makeup that didn't work in her favor? She managed to avoid any annoying notes that I typically find off-putting like childish which is a big plus in my opinion. Overall, while I did have mixed feelings about the lead actress, her acting was commendable.
Wang Xing Yue, the male actor, has proved to be an excellent choice for various drama series. Although he may not be conventionally handsome, his looks are still quite appealing, and he has a natural charm that makes him a great match with the leading lady. His acting skills are exceptional, and he has delivered some outstanding performances in his career so far. His range of emotions and ability to bring depth to his characters have earned him a reputation as a talented actor in the industry.
The chemistry between the second main couple was lacking. The woman looked considerably older than the man, making their relationship seem unconvincing. However, the other characters were well portrayed, with a special mention to Nie Xi Hao, who played the role of the "evil brother". In my opinion, he has both the looks and talent to take on more significant main roles in future dramas.
In my opinion, this drama is definitely worth watching. However, I must mention that there are a few scenes that feature physical contact between the couple. If you are someone who is uncomfortable with public displays of affection, then this drama might not be suitable for you. But if you don't mind watching romantic moments such as holding hands and hugs, then this drama with a sweet and happy ending will definitely be enjoyable for you.

Became Unbearable
I read reviews before I embark on any drama.With this drama, I did the same. The reviews were good and the drama seemed promising. However, I ended up very disappointed. The drama didn’t live up to its expectations and I didn’t know why the other viewers enjoyed it because I really could not bear it anymore. (To each his or her own.)
What I didn’t like:
- the leads weren’t that good-looking and their looks didn’t become better the more I looked at them - rather, the opposite happened
- the leads didn’t have good chemistry IMO
- the female lead really became annoying as the episodes continued - I could not stand looking at her act
- the female lead’s sister was even worse as her acting was stiff and she behaved irrationally IMO
- the storyline was fairly intriguing at the start but it became draggy and went on and on about nothing IMO and it became a tiring watch as nothing was moving
Overall, there’s nothing really great about this drama. Nothing shines. I could not stand watching it anymore after reaching mid-point.
My verdict: Please don’t waste your precious time. There are much better dramas out there! Skip this!

Unexpectedly good
The script is witty and expressions are just right and animated. Great dry humour. Fun n lively to watch. All actors esp ML/FL might not b big names but actings ichiban !! They are actually quite natural n in tuned with each own characters. Kudos to de director too coz his close-up are just right and did not rush any screentime; patiently capturing their expressions. I'm not one to b inclined to leave reviews but totally cannot ignore such a good production! I will probably gonna b finishing this!Was this review helpful to you?
Abuse in Dramas
Girl/women abuse goes on and on in dramas. The latest drama "Your Sensibility My Destiny" takes the first place in terms of girl/women abuse. Abuse to the point that the ML dislocates the girl’s arms and wrists making her stay by his side . She seeks someone to fix her lifelessly hanging arms. (Outrageous!) In the MEN'S WORLD OF GIRL/WOMEN ABUSE girls/women do not get neither love or attention from men nor respect, abuse only and… more than that girls/women are not supposed to fight back. They MUST accept that and “fall in love” with the abuser. It’s a must. No wonder in many dramas girls/women are hysterical, agitated, irrational, and explosive; burst into anger out of nothing. Almost in every episode they turn into emotionally disturbed alcoholics chasing boys, shaking them, demanding their attention in hope they would change the men and get at least some love from them. Script writers should be jailed, they are killing the nation supporting girl/women abuse. No wonder a gender switch role is highly promoted in late dramas in which girls chase the boys, girls confess first arranging a sweet, romantic place, ask boys out on a date first, give them gifts, love letters, and kiss them first. This happens only because men live in the world of a girl/woman abuse and incapable of showing their feeling to the girl they love/like. The only thing they are capable of is ABUSING a girL.Was this review helpful to you?
Une très jolie série fantasy et romantique.
La storyline (destin qui réunit un prince privé de sens et une "don du ciel" qui le guérit) est assez classique. Les conspirations et intrigues pour la succession au sein de la Cour, sans doute conformes à la réalité, sont aussi habituelles.Mais :
- Les acteurs sont excellents, surtout le CL (le ML est très jeune, mais talentueux et très prometteur).
Remarque : la perte des sens notamment le goût et l'odorat, est assez ironique dans la situation de COVID actuelle.
- Le format n'est pas trop long (24 épisodes) et la réalisation est vive et efficace. tout est dit, mais il n'y a pas de scènes ou de personnages inutiles;
- Les OST sont très classiques (et adaptées) pour une rom-com historique.
- j'aime beaucoup le petit clin d’œil du switch potentiel à la fin :)
En conclusion, une très jolie série fantasy et romantique, qui se découvre au fil des épisodes avec beaucoup de plaisir.
