Almost a perfect one.
Hmm so before I start I need to say this. Lighter and Princess is the only Drama this whole year that I've binged. It took me 11 months to find this one and I can't be more thankful.With that being said let's get into the review.❤️
From the very first episode I was deeply hooked. It just makes you wanna know their story. The first few episodes which were mainly about ML and FL banter was suprisingly not clingy. It was just DONE RIGHT!!!!
The progress of the main characters along with the supporting characters was done so beautifully. There were many heart fluttering interactions between the leads that just brings a smile to your face.
By the time I got to 15th episode I was totally in for the story, acting, leads and cinematography as well. It was all just SOOO GOOOD
When I was at around 22-24 episode I thought this was totally a banger that is gonna go straight into top of my cdrama favourite list. It definitely is in top 5 but something in the later episodes just changed my judjement.
here comes little spoilers so skip it
( I just don't get why Li Xun has to go physical to avenge his sister. He is a sensible character and what he has done is little dissapointing. From that moment everything goes wrong. Zhu Yun suffering mentally, Li Xun behaviour changes, Gao jinghong being a total freak is just too much for me to handle.)
Apart from the ones I've mentioned earlier I think Their efforts for revenge, their relation build up in the 26-36 episode could've have been stronger, effective.
The acting was top notch. Loved the ost.
memory lane : fireworks scene, proposal scene, all uni interactions <3<3. This was a great one.

INSANELY HOOKED
If I hadn't seen the thumbnail on YouTube I'd have missed this gem.There hasn't been much noise about this so I'll be saying all the well done and a few things that could've been better abt this drama.
GOOD THINGS
1) Story has the ability to get you hooked. You keep wanting to see what going to happen next
2) The actors did very well. Every emotion is conveyed very well.
3) If you like a strong-minded, powerful female lead this drama is for you.
4)Amazing chemistry between the leads.
5)Cinematography and music are well done
THINGS THAT CAN BE IMPROVED
1) Even if the story is good it can't be stretched too long, I feel this could've been shortened to 36 episodes.
2)Character development for 2nd FL would've been more appreciable.
That's it for now, I hope you watch and enjoy it!

So Underrated!!
I am shooked by this drama and even more shooked that it is not known to many. The best thing about this drama is that you can never guess what's going to happen next, it keeps you on the edge of your seat, This is actually the first time I liked the second lead's story more than ML. They are the best sunshine-grumpy couple I've seen. Overall acting and storyline make it totally worth it to binge.Was this review helpful to you?
I thought I lost my ability to feel chemistry!!!
Let me get this straight. I gave myself a break after not finding any good drama for a while. A few months ago I read the novel and I dropped it halfway because the STORY was boring. But I knew I had to watch the drama for my favourite C-actress Bailu(not anymore). I read a few reviews here and there about great chemistry and went for it.THAT'S A BIIIIG MISTAKE I MADE THERE
After a few(18 episodes) I was seriously questioning myself if I lost my interest in dramas or smtng. But that was not the case, it is genuinely so poorly done. The script itself is trash. They made great-looking leads to do questionable things. They have so much potential to bring something great but they all gathered and decided to do this and find it okay??? I genuinely hope actors choose better script, and stories like this stop being made into drama.
