“Romantic Princess,Ep.2″

Plot Line: This episode opens up with Xiao Mai deciding that she wants to make a contract with her grandpa. What is the contract?? She has five years to pay five million to her grandfather so that she pays her foster parents house off, and she’s free and doesnt have to marry one of her grandfather successors. But if she doesn’t earn the money in five years then she will have to marry a successor, and who does her grandfather pick, why he picks Jin. So after a scary dream of not paying the  money and having to marry a-not-so-kawii jin,Xiao Mai finds a video tape of her friends&Classmates wishing her luck in her new life and who did this video come from, why from Emp.She feel a bit sad because she had feeling that her grandfather was mean and she feels he was very nice by making this video so she wouldnt feel lonely. So wanting to vist her foster parents she find out she has to bring Jin with her,why? Because of her safety. She is not allowed to leave the mansion without someone. So Jin comes along and after not agreeing to stuff, he finally comes in and has dinner with Xiao and Her  family. This coming for dinner happen at that night and then the next day.Emp starts to get anrgy because he feels Xiao is ignoring him and he decides to visit Xiao foster father and basically says ‘he useless and a failure’ and to make it up he should move to Brazil with Mrs.Mai and startover, after lots of consideration,he agrees, and Mrs.Mai and him go,without telling Xiao Mai.So while the Mai’s and the cousin are waiting in the airport, Mai phones and  her cousin accidentally tells her that her parents are moving to Brazil.Xiao Mai didn’t know this, and goes to the airport with Jin. But arriving to late she starts to cry and Jin let her cry on his shoulder. She goes back and basically yells at her grandfather and run aways, with Jin coming to confort her. But the next day she is taken back.Btw Xiao Mai thinks Grandfather made her parents go to Brazil,when really they had a choice.And she feels Jin betrayed her when the security came after her a day later to take her back. Also now Lin,Jin’s brother has taken a series interest in Xiao Mai and Jin gives him a bit of advice.

Thoughts: I thought this was a really well done episode. This is another Jin&Xiao episode, well actually this is the first to really focuse on themselves.  I find that Angela Zhang is a good actress, she was a very emotional when the acting parts came and so. I dont really feel sad that Mr.&Mrs. Mai are,well left the show,kindof, why? I didn’t really like thier characters that much and felt that they were a conflict that was going to be taken care of,sometime in the series. Now,hopefully we can focuse on the four guys. Because now Lin has open up  as a character and we can expect him loving Xiao will make a conflict in episode 3. Anywho this was a good episode.

“Romantic Princess,Ep.1″

Let me Just say that Wu Chun is kawii!!! He plays Nan Feng Jin in the new Taiwanese drama,  Romantic Princess. Which also stars Angela Zhang, Calvin Chen, and Gu Bao Ming. And many others. Why I decided to do this drama is because, not only have i just started this series, but also because I found it quite interesting. More interesting then blue seed  and Haruka Toki no Naka de. Sadly but true.Anywho,enjoy the first review.

BTW Xiao Ming is also called Shan throughout the series, because thats her birth name. But she doesn’t like it, so she says to stick with Xiao Ming.

Plot Line: The first episode is pretty much based around Xiao Mai (Angela Zhang) finding out that she’s is the granddaughter of the richest person in all of asian. Now in the beginning of the show, Xiao’s main goal is to become wealthy and how she’s doing this is by working every day. She wants to live in the mansion where her grandfather actually lives,but she didn’t know he was her grandfather, anywho. She figures if she doesn’t eat for 400years she can get that lifestyle. So basically Xiao Mai gets heat stroke and come home from work early, but after awhile, alot of Emp (Gu Bao Ming), her Grandfathers, men come to the house, and basically she leaves. The  episode is also based on her wanting to leave her new rich lifestyle because she doesnt feel this new lifestyle is good, it  wasn’t as she expected, and she also wants to leave because of that dumb,kawii, jerk, guy Jin (Wu Chun) who keeps thinking “She’s a spoil rich  girl” and basically he makes her hate him. But by the end he learns his theories might of been wrong.  So by the end Xiao Ming and her foster family decide to live together even if that means that the parents loose their job and new good house that Emp  Gave them.   

Thoughts: One thing I have learned to do is never watch dramas, when your about to go to bed and haft asleep,haha. Ok the quote I think  really fits this episode,maybe the whole series, is ”Becareful what you wish for”. Xiao  Ming learned that the rich lifestyle that she dream of isn’t so ‘fairytale like’. For me I think Angela Zhang and Wu Chun did a really good acting job. The acting was pretty good in my opinon. Now I can tell from this episode that Xiao Ming & Jin will be a recurring conflict, with them hating each other and all. I hope that we can learn more about the other guys in the future and not just focus on Xiao Ming&Jin. I also hope that Xiao Ming past will be more told and or the enemy that kidnapped her when she was a child, will come back in the series. I thought the first episode was really well done,I wish we could of seen more of Jin tho <3
