To be honest, I'm not that into "chinese dramas" specially Historical ones, mostly because they are so long and probably because I'm more used to korean dramas. BUT after the "unfinished" feelings that Scarlet Heart Ryeo left me, i decided to give PWY a try because it was on the top of the most watched dramas, and i'm grateful that i did. It may sound absurd for Scarlet Heart Ryeo fans, but both have similarities. Such as Princes falling in love with the main lead, evil second female lead that is in love with the male lead and wants power more than anything. Besides that, the story in PWY is completely different from Scarlet Heart Ryeo. This drama is all about revenge and love, love that conquers all, a tragic but beautiful love story. Regarding the acting, both leads have amazing chemistry (It's good to know that they're dating) . I'm now a fan of Tifanny Tang, I will look forward to see her in more dramas. She's amazing. The others actors did a good job too. If you're looking for a historical drama that has action, suspense, drama and romance, PWY is the one for you. If you're unsure if you should watch or not because you're reading comments, please don't. Don't let you're decision depend on someone else, if you want to watch, watch it don't be afraid. It's good to take risks sometimes.
