Revenge and GOOD Chemistry between the Leads

The double was such an emotional ride, I've watched all the episodes while it was airing and I'm so glad I did it. The story is really good, the characters are 3D, also the villains (maybe even too much). The dramatic scenes and the comical reliefs were well balanced and ofc, there're flaws, there're some plot holes... but all the actors did such an amazing job that every mistake goes into the background.

Both ML and FL were wonderful, the chemistry was on fire even without having properly called "romantic scenes". They managed to create an amazing relationship and they both gave life to their characters. They showed the flirting, the warmth, the support, the absolute trust in one another and all of this to me it's even more powerful than just a kiss. If it wasn't for them I'm not sure I would have been here till the end. The Duke and Ali are now one of my favorite couple! I'd rewatch this show just too see again their conversations, the communication was so good!

What about the villains? Well they were also protagonists here. They were not just "the bad guys", it was far more than that. Their actions were explained also from their point of view. In particular the Princess Wanning and Shen did great. Shen showed his personality so well. They have been that good that you're gonna hate them for real :) Even tho someone could actually empathize with them in certain moments.

The end was a bit rushed as often happens, but it was so emotional and I liked, if only they would add 10 more seconds at the end LOL

With all the flaws and little bitter elements, I'd recomend to watch this 100 times. If you like revenge, fight for justice, a FL really great who doesn't"forgive" (like often happens with FLs) and fight back! A ML that knows how to trust and support and love without being acting like a macho, but also being a loser (with style A LOT of STYLE! :D), if you like to see a lot of flirting moments between the leads and if you like complex characters, then this is the drama for you!

A gem till 20th episode

Here's a great exemple of how ruin a great drama. It begins to go downhill already, around 15-16th, but after 20th episode, seems that someone else has taken the writers' place.
I rewatched a couple of times and I always love the first half of the drama. Their chemistry and acting is so natural, really few dramas have achieved that. Also, their relationship grows so smoothless and they are so funny to watch.

The main problem of this drama, apart from having the most annoying second leads (both male and female), who really don't know what the word NO means, is the complete change of FL's attitude. The drama become just a misunderstanding after another and kind of depressing. There are really few more great laughs in the second half of the drama.

Nonetheless, I think you should give it a try, because the first half is really worth it. Maybe you can stop around 20th episode, thinking of that as a proper ending.
