The romance was super sweet. It was nice to see the male falling in love first and pursuing the girl like his life depends on it. Usually its the girl that follows the guy around like a puppy and keeps getting rejected till he finally falls in love with her. So it was nice to watch something different. You can tell from the first episode that he REALLY loves her. The romance was very fast paced in the beggining, then slow paced, then fast again then they just dragged the story for more than 20 episodes for no reason. I would have given this a 10 when I rated it but I had to skipp so many scenes. It felt like I was watching a soap opera. Everything took too long to happen, the supporting characters took too much screen time (not that I didnt like the supporting characters),... The way the story started and how fast things happened in the beggining this could have been easily a 20-30 episodes drama, but they made 72 episodes so the rewatching value for people who do not like skipping scenes all the time and enjoy binge-watching is very little. I would watch this again for the main leads story which was very sweet, IF it was shorter. That said, at least for me, this was a one time drama. I do not have the patience to go through all those 72 episodes a second time.

I know what you mean. Some things feel very similar to Go Princess Go. I think I read somewhere that either the director or something was the same, so it makes sense both dramas give the same feeling. At the moment this drama is one of my favorites and I enjoy every episode. I have not started Princess Agents yet as I was waiting for it to finish airing. I usually do not start a drama if it has not finished airing or is not fully subbed since I hate having to wait so I can watch the next episode. The Eternal Love was an exception to the rule as I watched the first episode out of curiosity and could not stop myself from watching the other ones as they are available with english subs.

From what I have read you are not the only one who is disappointed with Princess Agents. I have/had high expectations but now I am not so sure. I will still watch it but I will have in mind that I should not expect too much from it or I might not enjoy it as much.

Seems like my request was approved and Tragedy was added up there. The staff was very fast. Took less than 24 hours. Thank you!

So, to save a lot of people from being disappointed after hours and 44 episodes of watching this drama, I requested from mydramalist staff to add Tragedy as a genre. This is NOT a spoiler. This drama should definitely have Tragedy added up there next to Historical, Romance and Drama.

I already knew what I was getting into from reading the comments but someone else might not read them and then be disappointed with how things turn out at the end. This drama is good, well written, I enjoyed it BUT it is a CHINESE drama afterall and happy ever after, especially in historical dramas, is something you do not see very often.

I have made a request for this drama on several drama websites. I hope a lot of people can do the same so we can watch it with english subs. The story seems interesting but I dont understand chinese so I wont be able to watch it without subs. I believe that is the case for a lot of other people.

I liked the female lead character, it was refreshing to watch.Other than that the romance and story overall were just so-so for me. I skipped a lot of scenes and had breaks of days between episodes, which never happens when I really like a drama. It wasnt bad, but it is not something I feel like rewatching.

I watched this before and watched it again today since I have to go somewhere later and didnt have time to watch an entire drama. This was like 2 hours so it was perfect for the time I had. I think it could have been better but its not bad, it had some pretty funny parts and sweet moments. Watch it on a day you dont have enough time to watch a 16 episodes drama. It will probably keep you entertained for the little time you have available.

I know what you mean. I watched it only for the romance and the comedy was good too, there were a lot of moments that made me laugh or at least smirk. But the story itself is full of flaws, a lot of things weren’t explained properly or even made sense. Oh well, its time travel so we can’t expect it to make sense. XD

Overall I still enjoyed watching it.

6 hours later I have finished this. I skipped through a lot of things after like episode 32. The second female lead,that is if you can even call her that, got too annoying for me to handle it without skipping her scenes. The emperor was an idiot who shouldnt have been an emperor in the first place. The ending wasnt completely bad but her death was just stupid. She only needed to stay home and wait for the zhou emperor to do his thing and she could be alive and living happily ever after with her husband and son. Sigh

I am like half way through the drama right now but I have to say that after watching episode 21 Xiao Dong is oficially my favourite supporting character ever. I mean, everyone who has watched the first few episodes knows what a jerk he was the first time he met Xue Wu. Seeing the changes his character went through made it really easy for me to forgive and forget what a jerk he was in the past. I dont know if anyone else has the same opinion about him? Anyway, I dont want to spoil it for people who havent started watching this drama yet so Im going to shush. XD

It was a good romance/school drama to take a break from all the serious historical dramas I have been watching lately. I wouldn’t say it is one of the best dramas I have watched and it definitely has some flaws, but I enjoyed watching it.

I should have not found this interesting but for some weird reason I did. I felt it was a good break from all the political/tragedy/dragging boring plots I had to go through lately. It had a lot of funny parts, some I had to actually pause the video just so I could go "did she/he really just say/did that??" and then laugh till I cried. The Korean references even tho this is a Chinese drama just made it even better. The ending was meh, kinda confusing, kinda sucked, but since I wasnt in this seriously and just wanted a break from all the serious dramas I have been watching lately (deaths/misunderstandings/tragedy), I felt it was still worth watching.

For a moment I believed I was the one who wrote this review. Your thoughts are my thoughts exactly. I also wish the 2nd part was focused on the main couple. 50 episodes focused on Wu Ji and Huan Er would have been my cup of tea. I also only watched the sequel because of them and fast fowarded to their scenes.

I have not watched Prince of Lan Ling yet but it is on my plan to watch list as I have read a lot of positive reviews about it and it seems like my kind of drama. One that I have already watched and that I found it has some similarities to this one is Perfect Couple. Arranged marriage, swapping of the bride and all that.

To be honest, watched it only for the main couple from the 1st part. There were a lot of sweet moments between them in this part too but it was definitely not as good as the 1st part, it probably took me like 2 hours max to watch this,while the 1st part which had the same amount of episodes took me like a day and a half to finish. Loved the prequel and I wish the 2nd part also focused on Wu Ji and Huan Er.

Loved the main couple. They had a lot of chemistry, which made me watch the sequel although I knew they were only supporting characters in the second part. It is still worth to watch with a lot of skipping ofc, but there are lot of sweet moments between them in the sequel too.

Thank you for your review! I have read a lot of good reviews about this drama and it is already in my "plan to watch" list, but reading your review made me want to watch it sooner.
