Story of Kunning Palace (2023)

gosh... the editing...

the acting and story are good, but the editing really made me feel very uncomfortable when watching it.

I discovered editing like this when watching The Long Ballad, so I thought this drama was edited a long time ago, but it turns out this is a new production. I'm quite disappointed because of this.

For me, editing is as important as the actor's acting, so I lowered my rating on this drama even though I was waiting for it because it's Bailu's drama. I really liked her in the drama TTEOTM, the first xianxia drama I watched.

then the make-up of the female players is also not neat, especially on the lips. Like the make-up stylist didn't pay enough attention, even the make-up for Bailu was the same, I couldn't focus on watching because of this.

in some episodes, I had to skip a lot of things because they were so long. especially in episode 12 during the coming of age ceremony, it takes 1 episode to argue in the same place.

I'm satisfied with the ending but why is Bailu's clothing style less attractive in the ending? Her make-up this time is beautiful but not her clothes

Impeccable story from beginning to end

WHAT A WONDERFUL DORAMA FROM START TO FINISH! ♥️

Guys, if there's a dorama that will hold you in a way, it's "Story of Kunning Palace". Seriously, I was completely enchanted from beginning to end! The story is simply perfect, full of twists and turns that leave us with our mouths open. Each scene is a slap of emotion and surprise.

What about the chemistry between the characters? My God, what a surreal thing! It's really creepy. And those kisses? I swear, it's to make the screen catch fire! It's that kind of romance that makes the heart beat harder and the eyes shine. What about that love triangle, or rather, love square? What about the jealousy scenes? Hahaha I loved it!

The characters are very well built, each with their story, their conflicts, and all are played by incredible actors and actresses. The protagonist is strong and determined, without a shred of songuice!

And the end? Guys, it's VERY happy! It's that kind of ending that we want in every dorama, but rarely see. I left with a warm heart, very satisfied, and wanting to watch everything again. Seriously, it's an ending that makes us sigh and thank you for watching it.

It's a masterpiece that you can't miss. This dorama is all we ask for and a little more - intelligent, exciting, with a breathtaking romance and an ending that leaves us in the clouds.

Unmissable! ♥️

It's a Good Drama but not THE BEST

First thing first, for those who watch this drama because they expect a romantic theme from early episodes, they should wait and be patient. I’m one of those viewers who watch for the genre and it surprise me big time, from episode 1-24, there’s no romance between the ML & FL whatsoever, they maybe respect one another but as a teacher student nothing more than that… It’s all about Political conflicts of the characters background Xue – Yan & endless conspiracies among them, during these episodes it’s infuriates me ‘cuz the ML is a very smart and calm character but the FL so rebellious & overconfidence (though she’s a goddamn villain but she seem to be getting restart like a game, go back to the checkpoint from the beginning before she make herself a bonafide villain). However Episodes 25-31, it’s getting interesting, I’m totally hooked inside the story even though the Romantic part still in progress there’s no result yet. Then from Episode 32 (which clearly reveal the ML intention i.e romantic decision towards FL definitely well written)and the rest is history.
The ML became so fragile and abnormal in the 30+ Episodes.
The Emperor is a dumb idiot character, he clearly knew that his cousin (his Xue Uncle daughter) was a pathetic btch he still slept with her when she use her cheap seduce trick which she became his another harem wife, seems like he mistakenly think with his balls not brain.
When FL run to the army base camp of yan and convice the soldiers general that she’s a friend of Yan Lin and they believe her like that… that doesn’t make sense.
I like all the characters that the ML considered as friends, they are funny & loyal.
From the original poster of this drama it’s already shows that the ML & FL won’t be close or have romantic feelings to one another that soon, it takes time and yes KUNNING PALACE is full of CUNNING people indeed.
This drama has a new style of storytelling, it seems like Bai Lu character goes back through time but it’s not because its only a story inside a novel which is totally fiction and her character in the story goes back through time to her previous self or reincarnation for a second chance. Anyway it’s a good drama but boy from Ep. 01-24 imo its to dull and slow burn, it’s always argument and all that.
Even though Bai Lu was her stage name, in an Episode where her character was framed, the main items in the scenes was all about the ‘Bai Lu’ paper (types of premium paper use specifically inside Royal Palace)…. her own stage name just pops-up in a dialogue.

Watch it for the love of Zhang Linghe if nothing else

Let me first write why everyone should watch the drama: Zhang Linghe looks absolutely gorgeous as angsty angry ML.
I'm not a fan of Bai lu but she acted so well. Their relationship will forever be iconic.

The story was fast paced unlike most of c-dramas (I'm used to watching k-dramas so no offense here to c-drama lovers as I'm used to series ending around 16 episodes).

The bad parts: badly edited and directed. It gets confusing at times. wasted enough time on Consort Shu character which was not necessary.

All in all this drama is a treat and one of the best to come out in recent years. A must watch.

Convoluted but engaging!

Since the presentation at the beginning of each episode is a short summary of the plot, I don't think it's spoiler when I say this drama involves a little bit of time travel. We have a leading lady who goes back in time, with her memory intact, for a re-do at family and court life. The drama, tho, starts the story like you are already in episode 5 and the viewer has to catch up. In my opinion this made the first third of the drama a convoluted, sometimes hard to follow but the characters were interesting enough to keep me engaged.

I appreciate leading lady it's smart and an equal talent as her male counterparts. This is important to portray because the world she involves herself in is controlled mainly by man, so in many ways she has the upper hand when they underestimate her and she can be sneaky without them realizing what hit them. Of course, except for leading man and a few of his friends. They see her for her smarts, beyond the beauty and noble title. Which is nice. That is not to say the drama has some red flag here and there but, if I am honest, I am on vacation right now and I just took this story for what it is: a fun period piece with endearing characters and some intense chemistry.

The latter two thirds of the story were far more interesting. We already know our players, where they stand and who they are trying to take down. Now it's a matter to see how this chess game will unfold, which personally I think it's the most fun for this kind of stories.

Overall, I really enjoyed this drama.

Similar Plot of Nirvana of Fire

Story of Kunning Palace, trailer was very eye catching and only if they could add more episodes. As expected, it’s remind me of Nirvana in fire. These are just nitpicks that I found kind of irritating me while I binge watched this drama. I love both actors and actresses though.

Problems I saw while watching the drama: Although I really like the two main leads, it was hard to watch because the writers couldn’t really pull the strings for FL to actually like him. I only see ML’s love for her. I also have more trouble of watching the way how they wrote Female Lead. Bai Lu acting pattern I’m starting to get tired of watching the directions of her character roles (maybe I watch a lot of her dramas, I see how each character manner/are almost same.) I was very irritated to hear her running movements are similar to her modern dramas. I found it annoying that she screams too much during the last episodes when she tries to reason with Main Lead about her feelings. (Directors failed at directing) (I haven’t read the novel so I don’t know if they changed anything but when it is adaptations it probably changed
) They really failed writing her character. As for Main Lead his acting was not as good as how he was in Love Between Fairy and Devil. His new role it was okay but improved just a little along the way. I think the best parts was him acting out as a lunatic was pretty good! He still had weird and funny facial expressions when he delivers his lines.

Overall I’d wish they had done an even more better job with the character of FL lead. It wasn’t explained in a good way. Other than other characters were great!

I’m dark and intense but will protect those I love

Personal opinion…any other face that played XW would have made me feel the relationship or romantic line was controlling and boarderline toxic. XW character is very intense, intelligent but possessive. He’s definitely not the type that has the mindset of “if you’re happy, I’ll be happy”. Realistically, keeping JXN near him is actually way more dangerous for her as XW is a strong strategist so would have enemies everywhere. It would have been nicer forJXN to leave and realise her love for him on her own and come back to him. I truely believe that “if it’s meant to be yours, it’ll come back to you.”

I felt they way they got together in the end didn’t feel like love but more like JXN felt too much debt to him. Almost like pity and very forced. I think over time she would have definitely loved him but as an audience, I didn’t get to see that transition.

Story is similar to “Love like the Galaxy” and some things were done better, like the way the main male lead was smart enough to get the revenge he so desperately wanted but also didn’t walk all over the FL trust to get there. He literally said and then showed that JXN was the most important thing to him when he stabbed his own hand. Actions do sure speak louder than words. On that note, there was also some things that wasn’t done as well like the aforementioned rushed/forced love. Give JXN some time to breath and process so she can make the decision herself to return to him. I think that the couple in “Love like the Galaxy” had a literal 10 year or so gap before they got back together. They were more mature and more trusting. As they say “Distance makes the heart grow fonder”.

But damn, ZLH face is just too gorgeous. He really played the role well and the man can cry like a god. His intensity, jaw clenches and beautiful lips makes it really hard to take your eyes away from the screen. He really didn’t have the air of “imperial teacher” though but considering the story line, it’s a smaller issue than the others. He really did not suit his “modern” day look either so whoever styled him for that did us a great injustice.

BL was great as always but her make up and hair didn’t make her stand out. The first episode when she was Queen, everything looked majestic. I guess that was the point but her “younger self” image really made her look older than when she was the Queen. The Princess really was beautiful and made BL look like an extra in some shots when they were together.

Would rewatch literally for only ZLH and BL but otherwise the story was average. The kiss scenes really felt like they would melt my screen so I’m so glad it passed review! BL always has such great kisses with all her ML but I would say ZLH takes the cake as the best kiss partner so far.

Le désir incessant de Jiang Xue Ning de devenir impératrice finit par mettre à rude épreuve son lien avec son ami d'enfance Yan Lin et conduit à l'arrestation du noble fonctionnaire Zhang Zhe. La culpabilité et les remords commencent à s'infiltrer lorsque son règne éphémère d'impératrice touche à sa fin. Avec l'aide de Yan Lin en tant que général, les rebelles s'emparent de la capitale et exterminent impitoyablement toute la famille royale. Dans son dernier acte désespéré, Jiang Xue Ning plaide pour qu'elle échange sa vie contre la liberté de Zhang Zhe, un homme qui a toujours fait preuve de gentillesse. Alors que le destin prend une tournure inattendue, Jiang Xue Ning se réveille dans le corps d'elle-même, âgée de 18 ans, qui n'est pas encore entrée dans le palais. Si on lui donne une autre chance dans la vie, elle jure de vivre différemment au-delà des murs du palais. Mais le destin ne la laissa pas s'échapper. Elle se retrouve mêlée aux intrigues du palais une fois de plus en tant que compagne d'étude de la princesse Le Yang et disciple de Xie Wei, le professeur impérial très respecté et conseiller de l'empereur, qui se trouve également être le cerveau derrière l'odieuse rébellion qui conduit à sa disparition.
