She apparently won’t appear until the very end. It’s a cameo and she only shot for two days so there shouldn’t be that many scenes. I can’t wait though. I saw a clip of her in the music video just released and her character seems kinda cute.

Hope it is lives up to expectations. I watched it over two years ago and I still feel sad when I think of the ending😭

The middle is the “sweet” part of the drama and the part when the show tries to flesh out Li Chengyin. It’s probably the weakest arc in my opinion but it will get more intense towards the third/last arc. I’ve seen bits of those shows and all I can say is the ending of Goodbye My Princess is legendary, to the point that people hear the theme song months/years later and feel sad.

I can’t understand this kind of behaviour . How does access affect the quality of a drama? It’s such an immature thing to do because it unfairly skews perceptions of the drama over things it has no control over. Just complain about it like the rest of us or send a (polite) message to Youku requesting it.🙄

Just requested it. It is really strange that this isn’t a fully international release. Most of Yu Zheng’s other dramas are and I thought Zhou Ye has enough popularity overseas from Back to the Brink.
That said, I hope they give all fans an official way to support the show. I really want to see Bai Luo😩 She’s really adorable in all the clips🥹

It might be worth sending a message to Youku requesting this show for international audiences. Did that for another show with Tencent and it actually went from a side platform to the main platform.
In the meantime I guess I’ll be trying to see if I can buy a subscription from the Chinese version of the app😭

She looks super cute in the trailer though. I hope it can hold up.

Cameo dunno why it’s listed as support on here. Rumor has it she only shows up for a few minutes at the end.

Not even Yu Zheng’s camera can mask her beauty💅

I think it was filmed the year before last. I remember when they released the first stills.
Everyone in the show will probably look different than their usual looks. Yu Zheng is notorious for making beauties seem plainer than they are.

The Scent of Time premieres this week! Catch Xiao Ran as a cameo appearance!

Yaaaaas!
Here for my girl, Peng Xiao Ran! Can’t wait to see her on screen again. She looks so charming in the line-up posters even though it’s just a cameo 🥹

There are 4 couples including the main couple in the show.

When will this drama air!? It’s like every single other HDJ drama is airing but this one…what’s the matter with it? People just want to see handsome men and beautiful beauties! Is that a crime😭

There were a lot of rumors about the ML and then there were some Reuters that also caused controversy. A lot of fans said they didn’t watch it but it got a 9996/9999 so that’s a lie- it was nearly a hit show. I think she fits with all her co-stars too and what’s nice is the chemistry is different every time.
CCTV is basically the government channel. It’s like the BBC in a sense so it’s seen as good thing for them to recommend you. And it’s no problem. I think the more people who know about Xiao Ran, the better. ☺️

It passed the review quite quickly so I don’t see why it wouldn’t be released. Some things just take patience if the leads aren’t first line. I’d estimate maybe next year especially considering it’s TV.

It’s always awesome to find other shrimps. Most foreign shrimps have the same positive and low-key mentality so thankfully it’s mostly good vibes around here.
I actually started watching TV again because of Cdrama but she’s the only one who makes me pay for membership. I first saw her in GBMP and her performance really blew me away. I feel like very few people realise how hard Xiao Feng’s character was. The audience needs to find her cute but not annoyingly so. She must have transformation but it must be believable. And she must cause an immense sense of grief in order for the tragedy of GBMP to be realised. That’s a tall order for even veterans but not only did she succeed but Xiao Feng is a classic character who has her own mini tourism industry and who even CCTV recognises.
And she did that with only one role, her first role. People mourn Xiao Feng as if she were real. Knowing this, I can’t imagine what her progress would have been like had she continued to get productions as sincere as GBMP. So many people would have given up in her place but she kept going. Jun Jiu Ling turned me into a fan. She got so much hate and ridicule but she took it all on with poise and grace. I too love that none of her characters feel the same. C-ent says it’s a detriment but that’s ridiculous. An actor who can keep you feeling like you’ve just met for the first time for every character is rare and it’s a characteristic that should be treasured. Cheers to another shrimp! Catch you in the drama comments or the feeds.

The first billing is PXR so LXY’s company shouldn’t affect its airing but PXR’s dramas do take a long time to air. If I remember right, it still doesn’t have an online platform.

I’ve been her fan for a little over two years now, from the Jun Jiu Ling era, and I really hate the flashiness of C-ent sometimes. I feel like a lot of the fans that pressure her that way are fans of others or too deep into star chasing mentality and get lost in the tricks. They don’t understand true artists/actors don’t do all those tricks because they have the ability. It’s only people who lack beauty and/or talent that need to sell other things. Plus they also don’t get that she does listen on the big things but not how and oftentimes when they want. They criticised the type of life pic she took and some fans told her to stop posting foodie pics so much etc so she stopped. They also told her to do less but better quality business photos and she followed that critique as well. Now, they complain that they don’t see much but she’s only done as they asked.😩 Recently they’re pissed because she’s taking support roles that they feel take too long but that’s the nature of them. They begged her for years to take on any kind of role so she had more opportunities but now they’re complaining again. She’s gone from no filming at all to relatively continuous filming this year and still getting complaints- it’s a bit unbelievable. I’m still annoyed at how much they criticised her recent ancient photo makeup only for it be her most successful look of the year/make passerby realise she looks good in ancient costumes again🙄Luckily she has some rational fans who seemed to be taking the lead and steering the fandom into a better mentality. I too haven’t liked an actress in a while as much as I like her. She’s really something special. Her work ethic is really good like you said- she keeps notebooks on her roles, asks for advice from veteran actors, listens to directors, and is willing to take time to learn a new skill if the role requires it. Who knew she didn’t know how to ride a horse before Xiao Feng or that she wasn’t a very good swimmer when they saw Nie Sangyu. She can craft characters, show their growth. She can play against veteran actors without bringing the performance down. She can also dub herself with it only enhancing the performance and not detracting like with so many other stars. I really think she’s a treasure and I selfishly hope she can stay in the industry for a long time because it’s always fresh experience to see her and that’s such a rare thing.

Yes, she really is beautiful inside and out. Her looks remind of the golden era of film when actresses had very pretty eyes and delicate features. She doesn’t post much and gets criticised for not following the female star trend of marketing herself all the time but I would rather follow an actress who volunteers in their downtime, posts messages telling fans to take care of their mental health, and donates to charity than shiny photos every day.
