Reception

[edit]

On 26 June, the drama reached a rating of 2.01% with an audience share of 14.88% according to National Average ratings.[53] This broke the record for a drama airing on a non-primetime timeslot on a non-holiday weekday.[54] The series is also the first Chinese drama to break 40 billion views while still airing.[54] It is also popular in overseas countries,[55][56][57] Princess Agents received praise for its unique storyline and stellar performance of the actors,[58] as well as the complex twist and picturesque landscapes.[57]

Despite its success and initial positive reviews, the series was later criticized for various issues in regards to its production quality – such as its inappropriate use of photoshop/green screen, excessively bright palette and the inconsistent dubbing of actors.[59] The writing was lambasted for several reasons – such as making the female character another "Mary Sue" underneath a strong and independent facade; and including unnecessary story-lines and screen-time for unimportant supporting characters; which makes the plot inconsistent and draggy.[60] Additionally, there was controversy about the excessive amount of focus on the second male lead's storyline, with some viewers sarcastically calling the drama "Yan Xun's revenge story". The drama was also criticized for ending in a cliffhanger.
