Check Story Of Kunning Palace or The Best Thing. To be honest, I prefer his voice.

While her younger sister is counting to 10. What a delightful idea for a date! 🤣

He is the son of the Crown Prince of the Great Yin who died alongside the Marquis' father 17y ago.

Oh look! A troll with a new account. It must really frustrate you to see this drama be so popular. Suffer away.

From YunHe:

On March 10, the long-running drama
" #Chasing Jade# " achieved a market share of 41.1% on the trending drama list, becoming the first drama in 2026 to break the 40% market share mark on the trending list.

The ones I mentioned were included during fight scenes, so they were translated. I have not seen anyone translate end credits unfortunately.

I kind of miss the inserted comments "no animals were harmed during filming. This action was done by trained professionals. Do not try this at home. Be kind to all animals" like they do in some dramas. They take me out of the scene, but it makes me happy to know they didn't mistreat some poor animal .

If you like Love Like The Galaxy and/or Blossom you should give it a try. It's a slowburn, but it should grip you within the first 10-15 min.

They had different spending habits and taxes and their village is very remote and far away from the capital. When the ML sold essays for 20 taels in a previous episode, he was told that sum was enough to keep a household for a year, but if you were frugal, you could stretch it for a year or two.

Here is the link for episode 14:

In episode 17 ML is gone, back to being a marquis and the FL is missing him.

Have you watched the trailers for the next 4 episodes?

It has 38.2% online viewership from the market share according to YunHe statistics. The show is a big hit in China.

There hasn't been a show with this kind of data since Joy of Life came out in 2019.

The Prisoner of Beauty and Love Like The Galaxy, which are my favourite cdramas do. Since the screenwriter wrote the script for LLTG, this might be her style.

I don't know. To me it seems that ending in the middle of the scene or a cliff hanger is something common in all Chinese dramas. They almost always start the next episode reiterating the last sentences of the previous episode. Which comes in handy when you are binge watching and skip an episode by mistake.

China has Tencent Video (WeTv), iQiyi, Youku etc as streaming services. They are using Netflix and co to popularise cdramas in the West. It is more likely to pull the licensing once enough international fans have subscribed to their services than to give in to the foreign streaming platforms.

I for one gave up Netflix, Disney Plus and Prime and now have yearly subscriptions to WeTv, iQiyi, Youku and Viki and could not be happier with the decision.

They try to bring their model and thinking to the world, not the other way around. Licensing shows on Amazon Prime, Disney or Netflix does not impact the production and release of cdramas.

Yu Qian Qian saw Fan Chang Yu when she went to get revenge at Wang's meat shop and asked her employees to bring Chang Yu to the restaurant to discuss business.

They rely on their own market. International fans are a plus, not the target audience. So I don't think they will change to adapt to the westerner style.

The screenwriter did a great job adapting Love Like The Galaxy. I was looking forward to seeing how she would handle this one.
