How is this drama part of The First Frost universe? I really can't wait for it. I want the nuances to feel just…
The male and female leads here are the seniors of Sang Yan and Wen Yifan.
The male lead here in When I Meet The Moon has a nephew who is in the same grade as Sang Zhi, and he also had a crush on her in high school. His name is Fu Zheng Chu (played by Zhang Jongmin in Hidden Love). He mentions Sang Zhi and Sang Yan in the novel.
One of Yunli's friends I think also met Duan Jiaxu while he was pretending to be Sang Zhi's brother when she was young (in the novel/manhwa, doesn't appear to be in Hidden Love drama) and asked for his phone number.
In First Frost novel, there was also an extra chapter where Sang Zhi and Wen Yifan admired Fu Shize for his looks and Duan Jiaxu and Sang Yan got very jealous.
She's not in this. They are starting to film the show tomorrow and she's not among the participants. They just…
Filming will take 50 days. No idea when it will air. No official list yet, but here is the unofficial list rumoured a few days ago (some have already confirmed their participation): Xu Xinwen, Zhang Xincheng, Lu Zhuo, Xie Keyin, Dai Luwa, Xu Yiyang, Guo Junchen, Wang Anyu, Yao Chi, Wang Yien, Zhang Yanqi, Xilinna Yigao, Kang Ziqi, Ma Xiaoyu, Wang Xiaoyunzi, Yuan Yiqi, Yan An, Duan Aojuan, Zhong Chenle, Zhang Yuzi, Ouyang Didi, Shao Ziheng, Yang Borui, Yu Yuhan.
She's not in this. They are starting to film the show tomorrow and she's not among the participants. They just put out her name and many others in the iQiyi conference when presenting this show to the investors before her agreeing to take part in the first place.
It is barely a love triangle. The FL doesn't really indulge the SML and draws clear boundaries from the start
They have a few interactions. However, she works for the ML, ML and SML are rivals. His intentions in the beginning in approaching her are clearly impure even if he fell in love with her later. She is also aware of this, so she is quite guarded towards him. I would say their relationship is at most aquaintance and later a normal working relationship, SML fell in love with her because FL is too charming. I wouldn't say he is clingy, but he does gets a little desperate towards the latter episodes by claiming his interest on her in front of his parents when he clearly does not have neither the ability to protect her from his family nor any kind of relationship with her to speak about. He also antagonizes the ML further when he finds out they are together. Tbh, I feel like the "love triangle" quite helps the drama. It is very light, the jealous expressions of the ML are hilarious and it helps showing the strong character of the FL. Even in the latter part, combined with the plot, it helps further develop the connection between the ML and FL.
She is an incredibly underutilised talent .its surprising how casting directors haven't recognised what she brings…
I mean, her next drama is adapted from a Zhu Yi novel and the one she's filming now is her first drama that gets an S+ rating from the start of production. Believe me, she's getting recognized. She's probably getting tons of offers at the moment, so she can be as picky as she wants.
The rating did not drop. It happens to every drama. It's due to how MDL ratings work. They will rise eventually when there more people rating the drama.
Are we sure the date is reliable? July 5th is not even a Saturday, it's a Friday. But there was a rumor about being anticipated to July 6th. They literally started filming last month lol. They are going to tire both the actors and staff to death if the date is true. Praying for everything to go well 🙏
Filming starts on March 24th.https://www.pickxum.com/audition-view/1/916/12/1
They actually have close to 6 months assuming they film until middle of september (the drama will probably end by the end of september / start of october). 16 episode Historicals for example take about 7-8 months to film. If it's like HCCC they probably won't have to change locations very often so it's probably doable if they set it like that.

This finished filming in October/November, so being released in July or August sounds reasonable considering it's a modern drama
