(3/24) ... Agreed. Lower budget drama, so the acting and story will carry it. So far, so good.
The production has zero traffic stars (Wang Xing Yue was a 20-year-old nobody during the shooting and Wu Jia Yi is not an A-lister). Actually all of the Wang Xing Yue-led dramas that were produced before June 2024 and that have aired til date are on the low budget side "The Double" and "Perfect Match" included. Talking about his post-June-2024 projects, even that Zhu Rui Bin production where he is paired Xu Ruo Han screams "mid budget". The only one I would say got the money, is his project starring Bai Lu because of her statut in the industry. No big IP linked to it. Then we have yet and find a 30-min-per-episode drama that is a high budget production : this is lowkey classed in the short drama category. Drama took long to air because all investors left from the informations I gathered.
WXY's new drama started filming today, no official announcement yet but from the booting board it looks like:-…
I saw some behind the scenes videos and pictures of the shooting. At last he is doing something orher than costume drama and it is a challenging role which also shows that his side (Yu Zheng) has listened to the fans' requests for more variety
