Over In The Blink of an Eye.
I wonder how such "tailored for online platform" dramas are shot, because, oh boy... the way the scenes keep shifting from one scenario to another makes my head ache. Each episode is roughly one or two minutes long, so if you are looking for a distraction, this drama might be perfect for you. I suggest watching this part by part, too.The leading actress impressed me with her expressions, though the Guard Gu barely had any. I don't blame the actor as not enough time was spent on his side of the story. The plot was succinctly conveyed within a very short span of time.
All in all, it's good for a one time experience.

Very short entertaining princess-guard romance with some flaws in the production and acting
This is my first time watching a short length series with episodes of 2 minutes and I quite enjoyed it despite the flaws that may be inherent to that kind of format.Obviously due to the short duration of the series, the story is not very deep but I still find it very entertaining. It is about the love story between a Princess and her guard which is clearly a trope that I appreciate. I found the fact that the heroine is the one in charge and more domineering in the relationship really endearing.
Acting-wise, it was more of a mixed bag. Chemistry between the male and the female leads was very present with some well done romantic moments. They did their best despite the scenario being rather minimal and formulaic. The remaining secondary casting was much less convincing with a lot of bad acting.
Production-wise, there was some real defaults with the connectivity between the episodes and scenes felt very choppy. It totally felt like a bunch of scenes put together without caring about the overall picture. This feeling of watching a collection of segments of story rather than a complete series did not bother me too much because it seems to be very much the point of that type of series. If the objective was to efficiently convey the scenario in the most cost efficient way and in very short sections, it was reached.
I would recommend this to people that are looking for a very short bodyguard romance with a vague historical vibe. If you want to see a series where the power lies more into the hand of the woman in the relationship than in the man's, and if you do not mind choppy editing, this drama will suit you.

But the story was insufficient. For example, while he could defend himself with his sword and cut off the attack with his sword, it seems to me that the person did not turn his back and was seriously injured. There could have been a little more action in this episode. It has been taken for granted. To make abbreviations. More precisely, it was as if it was a series translated for actor training. I didn't get the emotional intensity either. I was not excited. I wasn't worried. There was no feeling. I just watched. I didn't want to give a much lower grade either. Only for young players.

perfeito
Achei que seria só mais uma história sem graça e fui surpreendida positivamentea princesa é uma das melhores lideranças femininas que vi nos cdramas e a forma que o romance de desenrola é instigante
Tudo nesse drama gritava que ele merecia ser projeto de grande orçamento. História com potencial, personagens interessantes, desenvolvimento forte e química arrebatadora
espero que os protagonistas recebam oportunidade de assumir papel de liderança em uma série longa no futuro
até o momento é um dos meus casais favorito no minidrama que mais curti.
