The biggest hit of 2026 so far
“Pursuit of Jade” is being called the drama of the year so far, and I can’t help but agree. This show shines as a testament to its tried and true in the field of C-Drama. Our actors, as to be expected from them all, delivered incredibly compelling performances. Our writer (who also wrote such hits as “Love like the Galaxy” and “Coroner’s Diary) delivers a moving and engaging story that takes you through generations of hurt and trauma in a world where only love is comparable of breaking through the barrier. Our director (who also directed my favorite Chinese drama of all time, “Blossom”) gives us another impeccable work of cinematography, imagery, costuming, and acting.
Does “Pursuit of Jade” have its faults? Of course it does. What drama doesn’t? I found myself frustrated at moments with this or that, but never did I want to quit. Those things simply begin to fade away whenever you step back to look at the drama as a whole and know, without a doubt, you watched something amazing, something that took you on a journey with our absolutely incredible cast.
It is most definitely worth the watch.
