還珠格格
Synopsis:
Xiao Yan Zi met Xia Zi Wei, a poor girl who marched a long way to find her father, the Emperor, but nobody would take her seriously. Xiao Yan Zi decided to sneak into the mountain where the Emperor hunts, but Zi Wei could not handle the tiring mountain climb, therefore asking Xiao Yan Zi to tell the Emperor her story. On her way, Xiao Yan Zi gets shot and could not fully explain her story, making the Emperor mistaking her for the Princess. Here starts a long and painful story of getting everyone to their proper roles, but many dangers lies near – the death sentence if anyone lies to the emperor, and an evil Empress who is waiting to catch Xiao Yan Zi in the act. Added on top, Xiao Yan Zi's lack of proper manners and knowledge of books has driven her closer to jeopardy.

I have New My Fairy Princess on my list but not this.
I can only seem to find the first season to watch so I'm currently watching that one to see how I like it. I'd like to watch all 3 seasons, though. I'm not sure if I'll watch the remake either.

Haha okay (: I think it's good so far, getting better with each episode. It is kind of cheesy though haha. The music is good, the acting is decent, too.

I have yet to watch my first chinese drama, so I don't know if I should watch it or not :/
Hahaha there are! And the seasons just get more and more episodes, if they ever sub the second season (or if I can find it) I'll probably watch it.
This drama would probably be a nice first Chinese drama, it's also older, but it's not bad. My first one was Bu Bu Jing Xin (Startling By Each Step) which I actually have been in the mood to rewatch but it's 35 episodes :/ At least Chinese dramas tend to run about 40-45 mins per episode. Bu Bu Jing Xin is an excellent drama, though, and aside from a few things in it I was really impressed with it. Princess Pearl is similar only in that it's during the Qing Dynasty and deals with royalty. It's more loose and fun, and the characters understand each other in a way that's actually really relieving. Instead of them being mad at each other (like most dramas) for a period of time, it clears up fast. So I have nothing bad to say about it right now, like I said, I'm liking it better with each episode (:
Not the best, but it's nice (:
