Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

Already with GREAT reviews such as:

“So excited I can’t contain myself at work!” – Kappy
“Its been a long time since a drama excites me this much, it looks good!!” – also Kappy

Kappy: I’m home! I’m home! Thanks Mochi for putting the post up, I was too excited at work for my own good, jumping around because seeing the novel scenes come to life is amazing. I believe in Li Ying when she said she worked really hard with the writer to make sure they stuck close to the novel. The novel is very, very, cruel in the beginning. Slaves are treated like trash – you can see in the trailer how they are freed into open ground and hunted by the royalties.

What I liked most about the novel (with or without Li Ying) is that the central story is about the female lead trying to get rid of slavery, a practice that is taken to extremes in the novel. It’s not about romantic love, but a serious topic that is rarely dealt with. The second thing I liked about the novel is her change of feelings when first lead (Shawn Dou) breaks her heart by using her – the person who stays by his side when he has nothing left and they become each other’s support system for many years before finally breaking out of the cage, quite literally. I get so annoyed with love story where the main guy/girl is so blindingly in love until the bitter end (because they can’t love another person, no way!), which makes his betrayal so good and bad. I love Shawn’s character before tragedy befalls his poor soul and he changes into someone unrecognizable. He is utterly bright and adorable, always teasing our female lead about repaying his help with her body. LOL. As for Lin Geng Xin‘s character, I stopped the novel before I actually got to like his character but he apparently did many swoony things for our girl in the latter half (not nice at all in first half). XD But as for now, I don’t feel him yet in the trailer. Shawn and Li Ying’s prison scene hurts so GOOD. GAHHH.

Anyway, added the stills that were released. 😀

    Oh. my god. SO. EPIC. I really love how despite her petite and tiny frame, Liying pulls off fierce, almost bitterness, so so well and convincingly. Despite the physical misgivings, she looks so so strong, like she can overcome everything. Also love her voiceovers…says a lot about the characters. This is someone who’s learned to survive with everything she’s got. Badass.

    I especially love how she delivers her line “I’m bringing you guys home”. Also love when she’s like, “their are things more important than love or freedom, and this is my belief”, or when she’s like “we can only make sure to live because only when you’re alive can you take back what’s yours”, or her bitterness and disgust when she’s like “some people are born above all others, and others are like ants”, or her conviction when she’s like “you can only kill the man-eaters first”. So basically I loved the whole trailer. So excited.

    YESSSS a bad-ass female lead with a good head on her shoulders, loving it already.

    Liying is badass, and both Lin Genxing and Shawn Dou looks fantastic. Epic trailer! Can’t wait!

    xD mochi “GREAT reviews” courtesy of Kappy. This may just be the next drama that I binge over orz. Oh my poor life. Zhao Li Ying is soooooooo coooooooool thooooooough and all the war scenes are sooooooo on poooooooint. Loved it all! I hope this trailer isn’t a trooll again though because I have just been majorly sucked into the whirlpool of drama binging hopelessness xD

    Impressive! I can’t wait!

    Now, I just need confirmation for the airing slot. ZLY deserves better treatment.

    LOOOLLL at the reviews from Kappy! This is another reason I love visiting the site. Not just great and in depth news but I love the sense of humour too.

    I have been waiting and waiting for this trailer and it did not disappoint. Julianne Lin mentioned it above but I love how Zhao Li Ying is so small and slight but believably conveys so much power, strength and determination. I’m always here for a smart, strong female lead especially when it is starring my favourite actress! I’m surprised it didn’t focus more on the romances and Shawn Dou’s character but no other characters got much screen time so I guess that will be for another trailer. It looks epic and I can’t wait. Now I can only hope it is picked up by someone for English subbing…

    The only thing that i don’t like is that she will first have a relation with shawn and then later with Lin. I hope i will get over shawn the same was with 3l3w when yang mi first had something with zhang bin/ her master it was hard to get over it but lucky it was only a few episodes. I hope they don’t drag zly with shawn to long or else i don’t think i can get over them and then i can’t ship her with Lin.

      I don’t think you will get your wish though, the book is literally a tale of two halves….(Shawn is a MAJOR character)

    WHAT A GREAT START TO MY MORNING???

    I have a great feeling that this drama is gonna be a breakthrough for ZLY and really push her further into the peak of her career. She may be tiny with a baby face, but she sure is handling the role of a spy and ‘warrior’ well. Her acting and facial expressions screamed COOL and HANDSOME to me omg. I am so damn excited?! And the voice actress made it even better!!! I thought it was ZLY’s voice for a moment at the near end of the trailer.
    I am not really feeling LGX’s acting right now, but then again it’s just a trailer and he appeared just that few times so I am hoping it will be different when I watch the drama.

    It has been such a long time since a drama trailer made me so excited to watch a drama. The latest one was 3L3W trailer, but that is the movie version so its a different thing. Lets hope it will be a 良心之作 and not spill dog blood. I haven’t read the novel because I saw that it is a OE/BE? can’t remember so I shall just enjoy it without having to worry about it not following the novel hehe!

      Oh my Kappy, I commented without reading your ‘reviews‘, went back to read after reading the other comments and was surprised to see the similarity hahaha! Yes, the excitement!!! It has been a while!

    CANNOTTTTTTTT WAIT!! TOOK MY BREATH AWAY. After Storm and Prophecy, The Fated General, this is another one that I loved the trailers for!

    Too much focus on Lin Geng Xin’s character though, he was too stoic for my liking. I wanted more evilness. Shawn yelling – AHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

  10. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    The story and trailer look so interesting!!! XLY and LGX character both looks so badass!! I can’t wait for this too!!

  11. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    I am getting a real hype for this drama now. My interest was peaked immediately. Now I am waiting impatiently for this to come out. I just hope that the TV station will be fair to Liying and give her a better slot.

  12. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    This does look pretty good. I didn’t read the novel because the plot doesn’t really appeal to me, but I’ll probably watch this. The colours look alright as well. I’m not getting my hopes high though, because you really can’t judge dramas by their teasers (G&I). But I’m still optimistic 🙂

  13. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    Shawn Douglas looks like a tall drink of water in that first still!

    Looks so good. Liying pulls off Evey role ever! Wow!

  14. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    OMG I LOVE THE TRAILER.
    It literally sets my heart to rest about how they are going to play out the war scenes. LiYing IS AMAZING. The way she shouts,”I want to bring you guys home” gives me goosebumps. It is one of the most epic scenes in the book and now I have even higher hopes that this adaptation will be awesome. I stopped reading the book so that I can savour the drama more when it is out – I stopped right before Shawn turn evil and LGX turns swoonworthy LMAO. (I tend to lose interest in the drama if I am done reading the book like 3Lives).

    This is a really awesome character. And even though LY is naturally cute, her character is no Mary Jane nor acts cute like AT ALL. A breath of fresh air really. I hope it brings her greater success and recognition.

      HAHAHAA!! Maymay! We all stopped the story at some point. XD Same reason for me, I didn’t want to feel disappointed if it didn’t live up to the novel, but I’m pumped now!

  15. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    Zhao Li Ying. Badass. That’s all I got to say. I can’t wait for this.

  16. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    You are so right, Kappy! I am fainting now because of the epicness that is the trailer. I am so glad you reminded me to watch. I don’t even know where to begin. It feels amazing–I haven’t felt that way about a drama in the longest time. What is the premise of her background. Does she become trained to be a fighter of sorts? Wait, so are you going to end up finishing the novel, Kappy?

  17. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    wow what a trailer. Except this drama will give me shivers headaches and tears. Slavery has marred history in many countries- i am almost afriad to watch, afraid i cant stomach the weak being hunted and treated worse than dirt.

  18. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    Yess this looks badass! OMG please don’t disappoint me =_=

  19. 30 thoughts on “Princess Agents reveals first Official Trailer

    Haven’t seen anything with zly yet except that one episode of running man china lol but I love Lin gengxin and the trailer looks great so I’m super excited. I hope it doesn’t disappoint either.
