My Little Princess (2016)

Cinderella's Story Reversed

I will not lie, this is the cutest princess-related drama I've seen. I am absolutely in love with Bear Knight and I wanted to cry at the proposal. I thought it was funny that the female lead and the second male lead were actually in a relationship for 2 years off screen. I would have watched the "sequel" that was released as well, but I saw a clip of the new male lead and I didn't like him, his arrogance was too much and I found myself uninterested to watch it, though technically it's more of a spin-off.

Lin Xing Chen is a soft girl, and has the mind of an innocent child. But, she's a kind person, even if a lot of people don't see her that way through the episodes. Jiang Nian Yu is a very insecure person, and yet people see him as a cold ice cube because he never smiles?? Zheng Chu Yao was a surprising character because his feelings ended up being different than I originally thought, and at the very least I thought him and Yu Yang Yang would become close, but the outcome was different. Speaking of Yu Yang Yang, at first I liked her, but then she kind of became...two-faced? Personally, I loved Chu Yao's friends, they were funny.

Perfect.

Wow!
I was so amazed by this rom-com. It was so refreshing, the whole atmosphere was so relaxing and comforting.
My Little Princess is as i would say a MUST WATCH.

Zhang Yu Xi, played her role really well. The spoiled little rich girl with an unrequited love and then falls for someone even better, who treats her right.. I just love that.
Her chemistry with Mike D'Angelo was something else, this wasn't chemistry anymore... it was so much more than that.
You'll have many scene that just make your heart skip a beat or even more.
It's just a sweet chinese drama that is definitely worth spending your time with. A perfectly done Drama with a relieving happy ending.

Something About this Drama Just...

READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!! THERE'S SPOILERS!!

So, I've watched this particular drama 3 times and I'm genuinely about to go watch it a 4th time because just something about this drama names me keep coming back to watch it. This was the first Mike Angelo drama I completed and my very first Zhang Yuxi drama ever.

I love their chemistry and I love how Jiang Mian Yu dresses in a bear suit in order to help Lin Xing Chen when she's down.

I personally adore Zhang Yuxi's character who works hard to get recognition and be perfect because it shows the watchers that the more you struggle to be something you're not the more you will lose yourself which gave birth to Lin Xing Chen's "princess syndrome".

I also quite enjoy how the female lead is the rich one and the male lead is the poor one because it turns the tables and doesn't follow the rich man x poor woman trope that I see in practically all the dramas I've watched so it was very refreshing when that wasn't the case for this drama but the opposite.

All that aside I highly recommend especially if your looking for something light and fluffy that isn't super long but you might end up being sad that it's only 16 episodes and not more like I am. I also highly recommend watching Dear Prince which is part of this series kind of, beware of cliffhanger though, it still makes me mad and I still think about it at night, like why you gotta do that to me?

If you're very new to asian dramas then you'll probably like this. It's a girly-girly drama with a lot of cliché scenes.

The acting was actually pretty good, the female lead is such a princess and Yu Yang Yang (the antagonist girl) managed to piss me off. Male leads are good-looking too, one is a prince and the other is a knight type of character and they too acted good especially for me the 2nd male lead but not as good as the female characters did in this drama.

The osts were an ok because one ost felt too much like the singer was trying to copy Britney Spears and another ost was identical to a Korean drama ost, can't remember which, maybe it's a Chinese version of the Korean one, I don't know.

One thing I liked about this drama is the little parodies they add.

All in all it's an okay drama, I finished it because it just has 16 eps and I also wanted to check the 2017 drama Dear Prince which has the female lead and Yu Yang Yang from this drama My Little Princess.

Since i read so many good review about this drama, i try to watch it. I'm not picky when it comes to genres of the drama. But this drama surely dissapoint me. This drama has a standard story. Despite its 'a bit unique' premise, there's nothing special about the drama.

This drama start with a so-so pace. Even until the end, the pace of this drama is just so-so. This drama isn't that draggy but it is too clingy at some moments. There are many things included, but not all of them are revealed, leaving such an incomplete feeling to me. The main lead, especially the first female lead did an outstanding job. She's able to potray the character well and and astonished me (eventhough when she played instruments she did not hold it well). The other casts are good enough though some exaggerations.

If you look for a cute drama, you are still able to watch it. But, this drama is as what i've written above

It's alright

Overall, the story line of this series is actually nice, sweet and adorable. The entire casts really did a good job bringing the series to life with all their various parts. The songs paired to this series is also very catchy and nice. However, the teeth gritting part, in my own personal view / opinion, is the non stop narrative of the Female lead and also the dang high and mighty attitude of hers. Yes, some will say she plays that part extremely well - even I won't deny this fact - but I think there is "too much" of it in the entire series and it makes it a turn off. I am also a bit sickened of her too sweet voice on certain parts. I believe that she has a very nice voice - referring to the parts where she is actually talking normally instead of that dang sickening sweet voice - and feel that she should use this more than the sweet sickening one.

The series, in itself, is a nice and sweet watch. But, on the re-watchable note, it is definitely not something that I would want to endure all over again from the start. Not with having to endure those narrative and sweet high and mighty parts again.

NEVER SAY NEVER…

Headlined specifically because I don’t necessarily like dropping a show once I’ve started it. Especially with this one, I like both ML and FL actors, but I just couldn’t get past the dubbing. In addition, I thought the story was interesting so every episode I gave a chance and continued watching but I don’t think I even finished all of episode 6. I’m watching the new show STAND BY ME now and I love, love, love the same FL actress. I may (one day) have to come back to this show and eventually complete it to see it through. Best of luck to you that take it on and do a better job than me completely watching it.

I hope you guys drama lovers open your eyes! World is too narrow if you don't watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz_0A7d5xDo

The reason i give the music 10 stars because they're from recording but they're only paying actress to sync the recordings in the wrong timing I'm so dissapointed.

The show is chock full of cliches, but in the best possible way: they are full embraced and played with. I like a show that takes the standard tropes and has some fun with them. For instance it takes a while to figure out the "oh so sweet and perfect" Candy character. Is she sweet? Weak? Secretly manipulative?

Insults to classical music

I learned classical piano. And this show offends and insults me, no one can compare. I won't even review the story because as a story that centered around classical music, no one in the production knows what classical music is. No one in the show can play instruments. It's not even a bad syncing, it's because THEY CAN'T PLAY. It is so bad that I can't get immersed in the story. Almost all dialogues about classical music is wrong. They just make up their own theory.
Simply put, this is insulting and offending. All musician, especially classical musician should not watch this.

Oh right, why do I put 9/10 for the music? Because they are great recording. Yes even if someone said they played one note wrong, nothing is wrong.
