I almost gave up on this show after 2 episodes..........don't! You will be glad you stayed and finished it. Although I'd have to say that this period drama is quite specific to the Song dynasty period and for those who are not very familiar with this period may find it hard to understand the culture, social values and standing of the time.

The acting is superb and everything about the production looks very authentic and you would feel as if you were there in that period. It has many well developed characters and is worth a second viewing

This is light, fluffy average school day happenings........... don't expect thought provoking drama, lovey dovey romance...Just remember it's senior high school and most of behavior and feelings will make sense. I'm sure you will crack a smile and remember how it is familiar as you progress with the episodes.

The episodes are short (25 mins) and fast paced and addictive. It's very entertaining and the script is interesting with unexpected twists. I am fluent in Chinese so I understand the opening song (it is very cute).... and all the other sound tracks. All the other songs used have lyrics that describe the emotions of the scenes.

I think the Producers/Director had intentionally styled it like Anime, acting wise and also with sound effects and cartoon effects. The cast acting is fantastic and the main leads are good looking.

Some parts appear strange and disconnected....I think it may be due to the editing.

This is still one of my recent favorites and a rare find.

I chanced upon some snippets on youtube and it was so endearing. Young prince and princess married and getting to know each other...young love all that......I was so glad it was on Netflix. Now that I've finished it in 3 days...I wished I did not watch the whole 52 episodes.....I feel the acting is very good, both the lead actress and the lead actor, the prince. However many small parts of the story is not very plausable. Royal family members only marry for diplomatic relations, the princess did not seem to understand this untill very late and how she can leave the palace so easily to roam the streets and get drunk ..often. It's cute for a while but it just goes on to be weary and sad and I just wanted to give up by the 40+ episodes....then sometimes i think maybe there'll be a happy ending.....NO...it gets worse...it is the worst ending and I feel that I've wasted so much time...I must say though, that...it's just personal...I want to be entertained and I need to have a happy ending.. life is already a drag.
