Don't let Zhang Ziyi's age problem deter you from watching the show. The 68-episode drama was filmed in 2018 when Zhang Ziyi was 38 years old. In the first 7 episodes, she plays a 15-year-old pampered countess, the prime minister's daughter and the emperor's niece. However, our heroine grows up fast, and by the 8th episode, everything looks normal. Yeah, it's a stretch, but if you can tolerate Emily living and working in Paris without speaking French, we can overlook this aspect of the drama :). It's about 1/10 of the total length anyway.
If you'd like to see capable, good-looking actors wearing gorgeous clothes, moving around in beautiful locations, riding horses in breath-taking sceneries, then check it out. Remember to watch it with headphones on or with good external speakers, the soundtrack is amazing! The show is shot in the "Emily in Paris" mold and more.
