7.0/10 - A very solid introduction.

Normally when I'm this amped up and excited to start a drama the first episode may not live up to certain expectations. However, I've come to understand sometimes C-dramas have a bit of a rocky start. They don't have as long a run time and normally have info dumps galore!

Instead we get a minor info dump and instead get into the current time line. We're introduced to Princess Ping Yuan. A sassy Princess right after my own heart! I do love her! She plays the people around her and we get to see how clever she is and loyal. Protecting Wolfie. Wolfie who gets one heck of an introduction. Phew! That is some seriously oogling candy there! I'm not complaining about over sexualizing the main. Oh, no. I'm just seriously observing. (And freaking out at the prospects of how they might introduce Xiao Zhan's character.) I mean the glisten and mini strip tease has to be enjoyed.

No really. First we oogle and then we awe. Sure the awe is due to the Wolfie now playing with the cute cubs. Sure. That's it.

So we find out fast that Princess Ping Yuan has known Wolfie for about a year. She's helping to make the place scary and close up the mountian to foolish hunters. With baby cubs that cute and Wolfies this hot it's the only smart thing to do. I like that she's trying to teach Wolfie about humans, as she assume he's the baby of a scholar who got lost or something. She sets up a play and it tells the story of how the two meet. It's pretty cute. I also like that we get a taste of how fast humans can anger, and that some people can care and help. And of course help a mob to chill out. It's a very interesting setup.

This was a great episode in setting up players. Though the history lesson at the start kind of went over my head due to the speed. The writers really want to focus on the present storyline. Personally I applaud anyone who doesn't have to rewatch the opening, and honestly that's my biggest gripe. Which isn't much of one.

Overall this a great start and I can't wait to see more unfold. I love Princess Ping Yuan and her relationship with her father. It's so cute! They're cute together! Some of the setups here are maybe over done and just meh. Princess Ping Yuan's half brother/step (not sure which yet) is against her as well as the new wife/mom. So that's standard. I do like how she played her brother. Setting up a evil man with power rolling in who just so happens is after wolf meat is a pretty standard step. Though I can't believe he thinks that will cure him? Is he there for another reason?

The cliffhanger is well done. A cute wolf cub is in danger of being eaten and Wolfie is endangered by a daring rescue. Head right in to Episode 2. No point in waiting!
