I binge-watched this drama in almost 2 days, and I had to say this made me feel nostalgic even though in their setting, I was still a little kid. It made me reminisce the days when pure love and innocence is what lives beneath a young girl like me before, and the cinematography adds so much to how cool and comforting this drama was. I love it sm! 💗

Oh, so that explains the thing. Thank you for informing us!

Thank you as well, @chiza phiz!

Just went here to see the viewers' feedback before trying to watch this drama. I guess I have to wait for atleast a week in order to decide whether I should start watching it or not.

Story of Kunning Palace, where the ML also starred in, is a time-travel drama as well but the character who went back in time just went back to their own body, in their past self. That was the case in this drama too. I don't think reincarnation is banned too, since there are some xianxias which aired recently (2023-2024) that has a reincarnation plot but is not banned in China.

As far as I know, the only banned ones were time-travel or reincarnation dramas from past historical to present modern, or vice-versa.

For those who are interested in watching it, Tencent Youtube Channel had compiled Season 1-3 with 6 hours and 30 minutes duration long. You can watch it in 1.5x if you wanted to finish it earlier, just like what I did.

It is a light-hearted romcom, but recommendable only if you wanted to watch a fun and light drama.

Finally, I already finished writing my review. Apparently, this is the first time (again) that I have ever publicized my review. Hope you guys will read! Thank you. 💗💗💗

Imperfections are inevitable in a drama, so this one is not an exemption. However, I can overlook the minor flaws because of how well this drama has been made. I just finished watching it, and thankfully, I am satisfied with the overall outcome! I need to recollect my thoughts and start writing my review.

I still haven't watched the last episodes yet, so I guess I have to wait a bit before writing a review. I had a lot of fun with you, The Double! 💕

I hate the Eldest Princess in the drama but daaamn, Li Meng is such a versatile actress! From her little sly smiles to her vicious face when she plans something, and to her breakdown moments which caused her severe pain, her microexpressions as a person with complex character is really on point! None of them felt forced, it's just surreal how she conveyed all those emotions. I also think that there are a few scenes when they had filmed on the same day (as her outfit seemed to be the same, and it would be less time consuming if they do) which requires different emotions, but she managed to convey them all so well. A round of applause for Li Meng!

Am I the only one who thinks that Ji Shu Ran looks so pretty with the dolled-up head and feels relieved with how she acts like a kid now...? 😭

After watching Episode 35, I thought that I really might have underestimated Shen Yu Rong's cunningness. He was an a***ole, a pathetic evil who will drag others and look for a hole for him to escape in order to save himself and climb up to higher rankings. I misjudged him, it turns out that he actually have no plans of redeeming himself. I can't believe I actually pitied Princess Wan Ning this time (and ONLY this time). I thought that he might really be just in the extreme survival mode for now - but no one can ever call it SURVIVING if one literally did the worst things ever while other's lives had to be sacrificed. I can't predict this drama, it's so stressful yet so good at the same time.

I think it's more like a positive note, Xiao Heng will continue to serve him as long as he continue to love all living creatures just like how he is since they were kids, and let him remember his initial aspirations.

Even I felt robbed sadly, but don't worry because I saw a picture here in The Double page that there would be an actual kiss! Maybe they just lie low for now in order to make way for the main plot, the actual focus of the drama, I'm not sure. I think they would show us the real kiss near the ending. :))

I love how most of us (and even him himself) also doubts what Shen Yu Rong's real intentions. 😂

Will he remain in Wanning's side and continue to protect the wrong people, or turn the tables around and redeem himself? Can't wait for the next episodes!

The synopsis already told almost the whole story... 😭
Nevertheless, I will still look forward to this! It's so exciting to see Lu Si and Yu Ning reunite and as the leads this time. 💗

The rating is getting higher, let's gaurrr! 💗

I think, no one find it suspicious or strange because:

First, Princess WN just barged in as if she was just against JL and Magistrate Xue, which unveils the purpose of her actions.

Second, they knew how JL was able to be rank first in the school evaluation but most of them don't know how she was doing in Zhennyu Hall. Since she is from a well-off family, it's not impossible for her to learn and practice despite being in that place for 10 years. Only those who are close to her family or her family members themselves would pretty notice, which is what happened in the drama.

Third, there is no officials who have ever seen XFF except SYR and Princess WN. Therefore, anyone won't believe that XFF is JL. SYR killed her himself, so he was sticking to what his eyes saw and is not assuming that XFF is JL. If even her husband doesn't think she is his wife, then who else will believe? It looked like Princess WN was just slandering her identity.

And lastly, her acquaintances in the court mostly have never thought of your idea. 😂

I found myself getting obsessed with this drama more day by day, it got me hooked right from the beginning and kept me on my seat until the last released episode. The plot is intriguing, and the pacing is well-balanced. Even the dialogues were engaging, and the fact that these talented actors created life to their characters so well made this even more entertaining to watch. I had to repeat a scene if I did not grasp a single dialogue just to fully understand every details.

I came for the plot and Wang Xing Yue, so I know he would undoubtedly excel this role. However, this is my first drama of Wu Jin Yan. I have known her years before but I have not watched any of her dramas. Her performance here is indeed remarkable, so I think I am going to look forward to her future works from now on!
