An Le Zhuan

This drama caught my attention because it starred two of the best-looking artists in China, Gong Jun and Dilraba Dilmurat. The Legend of Anle has been the most anticipated drama for the past two years. How Ren Anle flirted and messed with the Crown Prince HanYe in early episodes is very funny. HanYe's is a complex character and Gong Jun has been doing a good job of displaying the calm and wise. I've watched 7 episodes so far and feel that Gong Jun and Dilraba have very good chemistry and their acting are excellent. I am keen to see what HanYe and Anle would do when he realized that Anle was his childhood sweetheart ZiYuan.

In this drama, I adore Dileaba's character. She did a good job of portraying her part. Dilraba was so stunning when she was holding the umbrella and gazing at Gong Jun. Dilraba is capable of portraying any kind of character in a drama or movie. She is undoubtedly a beautiful and talented actor with a wide range of roles. She does a great job engaging with the other actors and actresses as well as her male protagonist. If you watch the behind-the-scenes videos, it appears that the actors and actresses were having a good time while filming the drama. Gong Jun is also a great actor and I hope his character will develop into something great later. They get along well together, and I hope we get to see more dramatic and action-packed scenarios. The plot thus far is great. It's good to see Dilraba and Liu Yunning acting together once more. Also fantastic is the OST.

My review is based on the first few episodes. I am quite impressed by the acting of the two main leads. Ren An Le is taking initiative in getting closer to Han Ye in first episode. And I was attracted by the Male Lead, not for his handsome look but his acting, he looked frightening in the first episode haha! After a few episodes, I can feel that he admired An Le very much, thru his eyes (his eyes can talk?), although he was trying hard to control his expression (he shouldn't fall in love with anyone except Di Zi Yuan). I am so curious for the following episodes now, hoping for more surprises the leads could bring to us. I know very soon they are going to overcome lots of challenges and I might need to get ready few packs of tissues :(

Gong Jun's performing is amazing. Love how he performs in a self-sustaining way and sticks to moral etiquette strictly as his character is taught to be the future king growing up. He is trained to consider everything and everyone before he acts.

However, Gong Jun's acting is never stiff and boring. He is so good at disclosing his emotions and thoughts through his eyes and micro-expression. The scene that he receives the permit from the king which releases Di touches me so much. From his eyes and micro-expression, you can tell that he is released, happy and feeling complicated at the same time as he starts to have a feeling for Ren.

The leading actress also did a great job acting. It's an interesting story and I highly recommend it to people who likes ancient CDrama!

I have increased the rating from 9/10 to 10/10 after watching 19 episodes. True enough, it takes patience to understand the story and to witness the great acting skills. I enjoyed the chemistry among the casts. They looked natural to me and of course there were exceptions. It didn't bother me too much as they were not the main characters and I just had to fast forward. My favourite part is how the Emperor and Crown Prince Han Ye showed respect and love for each other. Their communication is so subtle and yet moving.

The director of this drama used a story telling method to illustrate the lives of Prince Han Ye and Di Ziyuan (Ren Anle). You will need to be patient to wait for the story to develop over time. The two leads made the drama a little more fun to watch as we anticipated it to be an emotional draining one. They looked natural in interacting with one another and some of the unexpected actions were surprisingly attractive. I love the story continued as they played along with each other's plot. I would have given a rating of ten if not for the dubbing and some of the effects that were a little too much for me.
