Somehow different than what I expected but a good 90/100!

I never write a review and this would be my first one. I'm just gonna write the overall of what I think, so it probably would be short.

I had a very high expectation for this drama, especially after seeing the reviews and scene recaps on Instagram.

It didn't really disappoint me, but it was different from what I expected.
If you like to read Chinese novels, you won't be unfamiliar with this kind of story. There's one that I really liked, called Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor. Somehow I expected the story to be something like that, with how the synopsis said FL solves many of the army's problem. Even though it didn't comes out as how I expect it to be, it's somehow still a great one.

There are many unexpected things that seemed like 'out of nowhere' like how the FL opens a business or how she comes back to the army camp, and at first, it makes me wonder how could it be like this? But it didn't bug me that long. I feel satisfied with how the mysteries unrevealed, even though the scale wasn't as big as I expect, like the Moon Embracing the Sun's revelation in the scene in front of the palace's main hall. That's one great scene I could never forget.

The main lead chemistry is good, no, actually all the cast are very good. Even the secondary couples or the parents all stick to how they are from the beginning to the end, and personally, I like how Prince Rui and his wife interact with each other. The eldest sibling couple is also a surprise, and I like how there's no annoying white lotus in the story. It's one of the rare things you'll find in this drama. One that I also really, really like is the character of the King. That's one rare King you'll find.

Don't get me started with how the fluffiness in this story gets me, I couldn't say enough about it. As the other reviews have stated, it's great with real kisses and not the kind of dead fish kiss. The thing that probably bothers me a bit is how the ML never really trust FL until the very end. That's probably the only thing that doesn't develop in him. But overall, this drama made me smile until the very end and I'm very, very glad with how it ended. That's the one thing I would always want to see in other drama as well, but I could rarely find them.

I never really put special attention in Chinese drama OST, but I think I kinda like the beginning song. And I don't know if all Chinese dramas were dubbed or not, but at least this one doesn't have any problem with my ear.

Well, I'm very happy that I watched this drama! It's one that I knew it would be a good one, so I've been keeping it for a long time in case I am very stressed and need a good watch. And turns out it is! Go on watch this one, everyone!
