I like how the female lead time travels not to the usual palace settings, but to a bandit tribe. I also admire her for not conforming to her new surroundings as she continues to be her modern self, unlike other series. I just really like Ye Jia Yao because she's funny, witty and realistic, instead of the usual whiny and weak female lead. Even though she doesn't know martial arts, she survives pretty well due to her culinary skills.

That said, I also like the male lead. Like some characters in the series, there seem to be many "layers" to Xia Chun Yu. You just gotta keep watching to discover another side of him, which adds to the mystery of the entire story. The supporting characters and their respective stories are just as nice, as they compliment the main plot.

However, it does get a bit draggy towards the end... Regardless, I'd still recommend watching it if you're looking for something that's not too heavy (in terms of content).

Overall, this is an okay drama that has the typical plot for a high school drama. Still, we get to see each character's growth as individuals as they learn to deal with issues (i.e. friendship, romantic relationship, bullying) faced during high school. My personal favourite is Du Ya Xiu, played by Simon Lian.

I didn't give this a 10/10 because the transition between certain events and scenes were awkward. However, viewers should be able to grasp the main message of the series.

Also, the OST for this series has lots of songs from Mayday so it's a plus for Mayday fans.
