Perfect Match (2024) (six sisters with not much dowry, all need to marry, costume drama romcom, feels very much…
There is martial arts in TROTAR because it's still a historical fiction drama. Many historical/Costume dramas that explore about palace politics and game of thrones still have war/battle scenes, fighting scenes, action scenes, etc.
But it's still different with Wuxia genre. Wuxia is martial arts journey for the Hero and Heroine. Usually they explore the growth of inner power and martial arts skills from the main leads. They also explore many sects and their conflicts. For example Condor Heroes Trilogy, Smiling Proud Wanderer/Swordsman, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, Who Rules The World (it's wuxia mixed Palace politics and war/battle between kingdoms), Love & Sword, Legend of Fei, Heroes, etc.

I know the difference between sub genres and MDL tags still classified them correctly.
It will be more confusing if we explore more sub genres like Xuanhuan. It's similar to Xianxia, but it's not traditional Xianxia.
Xuanhuan is a modified version of traditional fantasy. Xuanhuan dramas still have martial arts but also practice other magic and spells. It's like unlimited fantasy/high fantasy. For example Duoluo Continent, Novoland series, Ice Fantasy, Fights Break Sphere, Snow Eagle Lord, etc.

No problem. I LOVE to type long comments.
It's not about getting PhD or whatever. You still need to know the difference between sub-genres.
The Untamed is not xianxia. It's wuxia fantasy. Blood of Youth and Dashing Youth are also Wuxia Fantasy. It's wuxia (martial arts/Jianghu) with fantasy elements.
Go to Ancient Love Poetry, Ashes of Love, The Last Immortal pages for example. MDL tags said "xianxia" because they are indeed xianxia dramas.

No. You are very wrong. Xianxia is indeed fantasy BUT not every fantasy is Xianxia.
Time travel is fantasy but not xianxia. You can search it in google if you wanna see the complete explanation about xianxia.
TROTAR is not even xianxia for a little bit. The example of Xianxia dramas are Ashes of Love, Ancient Love Poetry, The Last Immortal, Love & Redemption, Moonlight Mystique, Till The End of The Moon, The Blossoming Love, Eternal Love Ten Miles of Peach Blossom, etc. You can ask other Cdramas fans about this and their answer will be same like me.
You can call them Xianxia if there is Gods, Demons, Fairies, Heavenly Realm, Mortal Realm, Demon Realm, Mythology Creatures, Multiple Lifetimes, Reincarnation, Cultivation, Immortals, and etc.
TROTAR is historical fiction drama with fantasy element (time travel/travel to novel). It has similar elements like Joy of Life. Seriously, calling them as xianxia is a big mistake and even laughable. Go research first before reply the comments.
Story of Kunning Palace, Blossom, The Princess Royal, The Double, The Glory, etc
The Rebirth of Empress from Military Lineage
The Legend of Female General
Both of them is Qian Shan Cha Ke works. The writer of The Double n The Glory.
And many more.
There is so many Chinese novels in ancient setting with Rebirth stories, Imperial family conflicts, game of thrones, noble families conflicts, palace politics, and also business in ancient era.
No need to repeat other comments, we already know the glory will air late March and someone already explained…
I intentionally put all the summaries here to avoid same questions from new users. I don't do spam comments and there is many people who lazy to read from the bottom. Many new ppl come here because The Glory is the next line after Si Jin.
There is nothing wrong with my post. And there is some ppl who keep thinking The Glory will be aired right after Si jin ends which is not true for most cases.
I am sure The Glory will be aired after Si Jin 100%. But FYI, there will be some gaps between the release date of two dramas. Usually platforms don't release the new dramas immediately after one drama ends. It can be 3-7 days gap for the new release.
I can feel that Tencent will make The Glory come head to head in late march with iQiyi & Youku collaborations Xianxia drama "A Moment But Forever" (Tiffany Tang, Liu Xue Yi). They had a rumored release date for March 27.
If Leon Zhang can bring good response and more traffics to this drama, then I guess his Romance Costume drama "Love in Pavillion" with Liu Shi Shi will secure a place to be broadcasted faster.
I feel like iQiyi is testing the water with the sudden release of Leon Zhang drama.
Who is she? She from the production company or from iQIYI?If not, still a rumored. March 20,25 and 27 is still…
I also know that. No need to be so worry or teaching me about this! I already knew how to differentiate between melon vs actual news.
Idk why she can be so sure or because she got insider news or something. But let's just wait for the actual airing dates okay! Do not bother about this one if you don't like it just skip my comments. Thank you.
