this drama kept me smiling and feeling giddy !! whenever the leads have their sweet scenes i would have to stop, squeal, and replay the scenes again and again because EVERYTHING about the scenes are perfect !!!! THE SHOTS, THE ACTING, THE CHEMISTRY??? ALL IM IN LOVE. Zhao Lusi and Ding Yuxi really portrayed their characters so well !! all of their lil actions and facial expressions won me over,, truly the cutest pair.
but
i also got frustrated with the female lead aka QianQian.. istg the writer really had to make her dumb at such crucial times..i really pitied HanShuo especially with his lil puppy eyes, his EYES i tell you,,i would die if he looks at me like that.
i also loved the comedy, all of the casts were very entertaining especially QianQian's bodyguards??? HHH i love them so much especially Zi Rui, hes literally the funniest dude,,bless his character for giving me less stress. FL's sister gave me much stress though, the more i watched, the harder i swore at her lmao, i have no regrets !
the drama was surprisingly very fast-paced which made me scared at the same time because i didnt know what the future held HHHH,, and music wise??? PERFECT! the music here gave me so much butterflies??it made me wish i was in the same era as them shshsh, it made me happy it was so fitting whenever they had romantic moments !
the ending was a little rushed though :(( i wish it ended up a lil different but i guess its okay since i heard theres gonna be s2?
if i were to ever rewatch it though, i would only watch the sweet scenes and skip the parts where FL annoys me. this was my first drama from both leads, and i became both of their fans now ;) love their acting sm<3! im actually a sucker for rom com, and from enemies to lovers kind of story. so this was really my style hehe, so i highly recommend it !!

Loved it!
To many this review might not be helpful, but to those of you who are Ryan Ding/Ding Yu Xi fans watch this!!! He's freaking adorable & so expressive! Although he's very aloof & detached when you first meet him as Actor Han, you get to know him & fall in love with his sweet sincerity, compassionate faithfulness and bravery as Lord Han Shuo. He did an amazing job &!!!! If you can see the behind the scenes footage, that mischievous smirk is so dead on!! So hot too! Haha he and Zhao Lu Si work well together on & off the screen! I almost wish it didn't end, but I'm not sure how they'd make a part 2. I'll fulfill my wants for more with the behind the scenes footage instead <3 <3 <3Bravo to all involved!!!

Funny and cute with romance
This is a pretty good comedy with romance and bit of suspense. I wish they have more romance part, but if you like comedy romance, this is one of the best so far. It made me laughs so hard and there were few scene that made me cry. The only thing it didn't impress me is the music. Opening song is very pretty that suites to the story of drama, but rest of the musics weren't that impressive. Other than that I scored 10+.Rosy Zhao is so cute and so funny. Ryan Ding is dashing handsome and both have great chemistry to make this drama a one of my favorite C-drama.
I wish they will make #2 series and it looks like #2 is to be determine.

Deceivingly stupid but surprisingly smart
Like everyone else has been saying, this show is a hundred percent full of clichéd tropes, flimsy logic, and plot holes. However, that is the point of this whole series - that our FL, Chen Xiao Qian has made a drama so hilariously bad that her planned ML outright refuses to act in it. The way that the show frequently pokes fun at itself and acknowledges the ridiculousness of it all transforms this show from unbearable to enjoyable.At times, the acting - especially that of the FL's - can border on annoying and one-dimensional. but the show provides a whole slew of entertaining side characters. The attendants of the leads in particular are endearing, provide great comic relief, and grounds both the ML and FL when they get too wrapped up in their respective schemes.
Plot wise, everything goes at a fast pace and any storylines get wrapped up in two episodes at most. Unlike other shows where you have to keep up with the main plot and a thousand side-plots as well, this show escapes that by making most side characters (justifiably) disposable and makes fun of this fact along the way too! This works to its advantage, because more often than not, the plot is (probably meant to be) weak. This does not mean to say it doesn't try though. There are some moments, especially near the end, where they try to tackle gender issues - albeit in a very superficial manner. Nonetheless, given the nature of the show, they handle these as smartly as they can by packaging deeper issues in lighthearted scenes.
Where this show really shines best is just brainlessly going along for the ride and watching Xiao Qian and Han Shou become increasingly besotted with each other. These types of shows don't require you to think too hard, and it is honestly best enjoyed that way. This is objectively an 8 for me, but in terms of enjoyment and experience can probably go up to a 9.

.The series starts out somewhat entertaining from episode one but gradually picks up after episode two and it got more and more entertaining. I have to admit that this series is different from so many other historical dramas in the sense that this series has the reverse harem. That’s right, reverse harem. Men we’re not to be educated and did not hold important positions. The birth of girls was celebrated and the birth of boys was blamed on the men in a not kind way. You the way they blamed the gender on women.Lol
The series itself was fun to watch and everything seemed to wrap up well. My only wish is that the realism was more intact but no regrets watching it,

Funny drama
The Romance of Tiger and Rose was a hilarious drama that managed to maintain its humour throughout without being cheesy except on one occasion. It had a great storyline and it was quite interesting to watch how certain issues turned out and the FML way of problem solving. The FML and MML had great chemistry and i really enjoyed watching them together.The only problem i had with the drama was at times the main leads didn't portray their emotions very well. I think they could have portrayed it with greater depth to evoke emotions from the viewers. I also didn't really enjoy the ending except for the very last scene.
I would recommend this drama because the writer had really great humour and the drama was directed quite well! In addition, i never got bored of any episode and finished it within 4 days because it was that interesting!

Definitely in the running for cutest OTP of 2020
This show was such a nice surprise. I didn’t expect much from a fantasy/historical(ish) rom-com, but this was (1) laugh-out-loud hilarious, (2) really well-made and edited, (3) had a story that didn’t completely go off the rails, and (4) had characters that were memorable and lovable.The premise is silly and most of the show is. But it never takes itself too seriously or tries to explain too much. It’s really funny and cool how meta the show is, with the screenwriter (aka the female lead) commenting on the holes in her script or how she regrets how certain characters are written. I also like that rather than a fish out of water scenario, the main female lead knows the world she’s in perfectly and thus is actually more knowledgeable than a lot of the characters. Thus the jokes are less centered around “look at this modern woman try to figure out ancient times” instead it’s “look at this screenwriter try to desperately save the plot and confusing the hell out of everyone.” Rather than being just a silly person to begin with, she’s actually a pretty rational person who has been placed in an absurd situation.
So yeah, I really love the female lead, she’s probably my fave, but a close second is the male lead. He's also hilarious in his own way, going from being a seemingly ruthless, ambitious man to almost instantly smitten with the female lead (though she’s just being nice to him to try to prevent him from killing her lollll). It’s cool how a lot of the characters develop in different trajectories from how both you, the audience, and the screenwriter expect. In general it is fun how the show takes tropes and makes fun of them and/or they play out in different ways.
It’s pretty remarkable that in a show that isn’t necessarily plot-driven the plot was actually good! I find with shows like this they tend to lose steam towards the end. The romance and comedy are the best part of the show but the plot was well placed and I was really invested in how it was going to end. This show was also surprisingly progressive with its perspective on male/female equality but it did have a few moments where I wasn’t okay with what the characters did (male characters forcing themselves on female characters is never my fave).
Tl;dr this show is 100% watching for the characters, the couple, and the plot. It’s a really fun ride and I enjoyed it immensely.

The drama that unexpectedly made it to my most fave c-dramas
Watching this during quarantine was one of the best decisions i've made. The only reason i watched this at first was because of zhao lusi and ding yu xi as the main leads. I had no idea what story was about so I didn't expect it to be so good!! I was hooked right after i watched the first episode. This drama made me laugh a lot and made me cry at times. The acting of the casts are greatt especially the two main leads. Zhao lusi's crying surely hits me. The plot and characters are all interesting. I also love how I didn't have a hard time relating to the characters as i'm not really the type of person who watches dramas where the setting is not in modern time. It's been a while but I hope to see zhao lusi and ding luxi in one drama. Their chemistry is undeniable and they're just too adorable together!! Anyways, This drama is worth a watch everyone!! I just hoped there was to it for them in the modern time.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Deze recentie kan spoilers bevatten
I enjoyed the comedy and some of the fluffier scenes and the leads formed a reasonably good pairing, but I found the drama quite frustrating. Usually if the romance is on point & I get enough sugar I can be quite forgiving when it comes to bad writing, however the annoyances should be at least below a certain level! Tiger and Rose is unfortunately full of majorly annoying plotlines, situations and events and the writing is just extremely juvenile. None of the major characters have a consistent personality, there were way too many arbitrary happenings & actions without an acceptable motive. Perhaps binge watching made it worse, because I'm sure I would have largely forgotten about much of the conflicting dialog, had I only watched 1-2 episodes a week, but still I felt quite a few things were just intelligence insulting. Even if I begrudgingly accept, that due to the "drama within a drama" setting, the regular cast were just sillier than normal, at least the FL should have been somewhat sane, right? Chen Qian Qian however is perhaps the dumbest, most unreasonable FL character that I have seen in a cdrama thus far.
I cannot help but compare this show to Mr. Queen. That show also had quite a few annoyances if I want to be entirely honest, but it was not nearly as infuriating as this one and also Mr. Queen is just HUGELY funnier and everything is just massively better, from the production quality to acting performances, the OST etc.. Oh wait, never mind, the ending is perhaps even worse in Mr. Queen, I forgot about that for a second!
I sense that censorship made a significant impact in this drama. That's probably the main cause behind the horrid ending, which follows the same template as in The Day of Becoming You.
Lusi seems like a very talented actress, she's totally romcom queen material. This drama and Dating in the Kitchen were just a waste of her talent in my opinion.

a great show, just a warning to everyone
I really like this show and it’s been very enjoyable to watch. I would just like to warn everyone that there are sexual assault scenes- TWO AT THAT that I found ridiculous and disgusting. Even though they don’t last for long and both weren’t “intentional”. For a show that runs on “feminism” I find it ironic and laughable that the directors thought the scenes were necessary and beneficial to the story. It makes me sad that such a great show was ruined by these uncomfortable and difficult to watch scenes.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
One of the best Romantic Comedy of 2020
No dull moments in this series, every casts has played their characters really well, not only the leads. The Main casts' chemistry is 100%.The series writer has some very intriguing ideas and it was well executed by the actors.
It was really funny and exciting to watch. I finished the series in 2 days, that means once you start watching it, you cannot stop.
I really love it and i recommend this series to my friends and sisters, and you bet, they liked it. Upto now im still watching some of the BTS and cute clips.
