Weibo award is a fandom game. Fans vote for their artists. So just take a grain of salt. SOKP did better in all datas and Heat index.

If you can watch serious historical drama, I highly recommend Advisor's Alliance and its season two Growling Tiger, Roaring Dragon. Please skip the rating on MDL, because it's a very heavy historical drama, maybe a bit hard for watchers to understand without background knowledge. But it's very successful in China, it's an epic, more than a master piece!

Waiting for ZLH next upcoming drama.....

They are different genres although named under Palace. Yanxi Palace is a harem drama, focused on calculating ladies fighting each other. Kunning Palace is a rebirth story about FL trying to change the fates and morally-grey ML plan for revenge.

Why is SOKP not in this article on the MDL homepage? 😑 - Top 2023 Dramas on MDL (by Country and Genre): https://kisskh.at/article/wrap-up-top-2023-dramas-on-mdl-by-country-and-genre SOKP is definitely one of the best political & romance cdramas so far! There are no fillers, no repetitive romance tropes, no awkward acting, well-portrayed morally grey ML, fantastic chemistry, real steaming kissing, and a very satisfying happy ending.

Some classic empire/palace dramas recommend: Nirvana in Fire (S1 & S2), Story of Yanxi Palace, Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan, Scarlet Heart.

Where are you watching it? It's available on original platform iQiYi, you also can find on kisskh for free.

Sometimes, it happens if you are confused about what's going on or what to expect. This drama has many flashbacks with two life stories entwined. I recommend this brief intro to the two life story which might help you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3ifdarJJBg&t=1s&ab_channel=C-DramaQ%26A

Her fans found her weibo showing active on ZLH's livestream for about 20min.

It will wrap soon this month or early Feb. It's not xianxia drama, so needs less than 12 months of post-production (usually 6 - 8 months is enough). If the censorship is fast (within 2 months), we can see it by the end of this year.

It's S iqiyi self production, iqiyi highest is S, but it equals to Tencent S+. iqiyi filters and CGI are also better than Tencent. I think the budget rating doesn't mean everything, it ups to how they spend the money 🤔

ZLH had a livestream on his birthday 12.30, lulu also watched it! The next event is the Weibo Summit on 1.13, when they would have a chance in the frame again (if their companies don't interfere with them).

No problem! Ashes of Love, Eternal Love (also called Ten Miles Peach Blossoms), Till the End of the moon (dark ML but FL waiting for ML return in the end, opening ending but he will probably return like many xianxia endings).

If you want historical dramas, not fantasy ones. I recommend Love Like the Galaxy, New Life Begins, Romance of Tiger and Rose, Who rules the world. All HE! Smart ML and FL! If you want a scheming palace drama, Story of Yanxi Palace, but HE ups to which ML you choose, it's a long drama btw.

Yeah, a bit, but very deeply hidden by him. He even didn't realize until she died. I have analyzed the two lifes in the novel here: https://kisskh.at/discussions/ning-an-ru-meng/121135-jiang-xue-ning-xie-wei-zhang-zhe-love-lines-explained-in-the-novel-spoilers

I've been waiting for your edit of SOKP, thank you so much! Love the drama, really enjoy your video! (25 min is not enough 😂)❤️ ZLH's next roles in Reborn for Love and The Grand Princess are both multi-layered, not as crazy as XW, but have some similar vibes!

It will wrap in late Jan or early Feb.

This video explains everything about Xie Wei's origin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqCy4AignZw&ab_channel=C-DramaQ%26A

Yes. He has a sense of possession, believing they knew each other earlier (4 years ago), shared the survival experience, so they had deeper bonds. The jealousy was not that strong until he found JXN protected ZZ at about EP21.
