Hi friends! MDL keeps crashing whenever I get too lengthy with my posts :( Been busy with moving & job hunting, hopefully some good RRs dropped in the meantime and yall are having fun.
@Arclei thank you for the Japanese RR recs & guidance on the spoiler tag, I did not see it at all!
Arclei:
Okay so the trailer for Zhao Yang Gong Zhu/The Shadow Sovereign dropped and it's LOOKING FAR MORE PROMISING THAN I WAS EXPECTING!!!!
Excited!!!
Hua Gui Jin Gong Cheng / 花归锦宫城 (TBD)
Starring He Landou & Chen Tianxiang.
This one looks like a promising RR, it's got the matrilocal husband & frail ML tropes. Based on the plot/synopsis, though, it could just be a facade, but that doesn't stop us from enjoying the RR eye candies. At the very least, it'll be an egalitarian, power couple drama. Check out the reuters and Douyin page (https://v.douyin.com/RT5ZBf42ujo/) and let me know what you guys think.

Plot
The Dasheng Dynasty was founded on military merit. The Hua family, a lineage of generals for generations, had only one daughter as their sole heir. In this family, women inherited titles and held military power, while men married into the family as sons-in-law and strictly adhered to their duties as husbands. Female General Hua Rongyan married the “useless” Crown Prince Xiao Ce to seize control of her family’s power, unaware that he was actually a knight-errant seeking vengeance for his mother’s murder.
From a marriage of convenience to love, through identity confusion and a battlefield comeback, they ultimately used the empire itself as their dowry, achieving a union of emperor and empress in harmony and ensuring the nation’s eternal peace.

I'm especially super giddy to see Liu Xuwei in yet another RR drama!! His role seems to be like a dark version of the one from A Dream Like the True Love, so liiiikeeee~
I'm expecting this to be power couple egal with prominent RR leaning, so... fingers crossed! Started airing today!
