These series and the characters are one of my favorites. I grew up watching this series and it was really what got me interested in Chinese dramas, history, and culture.

- One of my all time favorite things about this drama was the friendship/sisterhood of the two main female leads. Their loyalty to one another, their love for each other, their willingness to die for each other. THIS is what female empowerment and support looks like! So excited that I got to watch this growing up and had it role modeled to me as a kid.
- The story is HILARIOUS, featuring very humorous characters!
- Enjoy the costumes A LOT. I used to want to own my very own hat thing because I thought they were just so beautiful. And the shoes are kind of ridiculous but I definitely wanted my own pair when I was a kid!

WATCHHHH! A bit dated now, but honestly, worth it
