Watch the Original Yanxi Palace First!
I see most of the reviews are from 4 years ago when this originally aired on Netflix. It's an easy binge watch, maybe half a day due to the length of the episodes and there are only 6. It popped up on my feed and the story quickly sucked me in.The costumes and acting are beautifully done. Not having seen the original Yangxi Palace drama first, I did not have the nostalgia most viewers who have seen it seem to exhibit for the music and original series characters.
As a stand alone series it seemed very rushed, with not enough screen time between the ML and FL, simplistic plot and a few decent plot twist reveals at the end.
In the last episode, I had trouble believing Zhaohua was marrying Lhawang Dorji and kept wanting something to change. They were hardly together on screen. Nothing really dramatic ever happens between them, how can they end up together? The relationship developed between Zhaohua and Fuk'anggan, while fraught with lies seemed to have more depth and chemistry.

Definitely Worth Watching, Bingeworthy!
This is my first year delving into Asian dramas in a big way so I'm likely not as jaded as most viewers by common drama tropes. If you like bad boys who are actually sweet at heart, this story will definitely appeal.Unlike many viewers, I am not familiar with the author this drama story was based on but feel that it's well written and the character arc development interesting. I'm not a fan of time skip in a story. To show past and present in a readily understandable fashion plus bypass uneventful story points quickly, perhaps it's necessary.
Halfway through watching the series I realized that the main character Bai ZongYi, played by Taro Lino was also listed as director, which definitely impressed me. ZongYi as a character most appealed to me with his mix of geeky intelligence and awkwardness. Ai Di, played by Louis Chiang, a support character almost steals the show!! Like a ray of sunshine...so feisty, adorable and mature!!😍
Good chemistry and deep loyalty between the main couple. Extra spicy deep affection between the support couple. Support couple had several artfully posed ending shots when they were together.
Worth watching and due to the short episode length, extremely bingeable! Please give it a chance.
