Zheng YeCheng doesn’t just shine—he elevates everything around him. His emotional scenes pull you in completely,…
SoSL really offered us wonderful things about Da Cheng. My only wish is that he can finally receive the recognition he deserves after this drama. Even though he is flawless in appearance, voice, and acting, he still cannot get the value he deserves.
Seeds of Scarlet Longing achieved a 15.9% market share, and on the Mango TV platform, the surpassed 210 million drama’s view count. Furthermore, the series has secured the top spot among currently airing mini-dramas. In the general ranking of all ongoing series, it has successfully broken into the top 20, while the character Shen Miu has risen into the top 10. The drama continues to achieve greater success every passing day. Netizens are highly praising the acting performances of Zheng Yecheng and Zhao Qing. This series has truly become a massive hit.
Never seen ZYC in anything before but he impresses me in this. On the page this character doesn't have much to…
Actually, it is quite normal that you haven't seen him. He established his own studio and is not affiliated with any agency, so he lacks powerful connections. He previously became very popular with the drama My Sassy Princess, and now he is gaining popularity once again. This drama is female-centric and was prepared by Yu Zheng specifically to make Zhao Qing popular. I believe Zheng Ye Cheng was only invited to bring the drama to a wider audience. However, unexpectedly, his character Shen Miu has truly stood out.
The hashtag ZhengYeChengZhaoQingCPUyumu has now climbed to 25th place on Weibo’s trending searches and is still rising. At such a moment, both Zheng Ye Cheng and Zhao Qing shared CP photos on their Weibo pages.
The chemistry between Zhao Qing and Zheng Ye Cheng is just so powerful. It even trended on Weibo's hot search list today. Even though this is a short drama, it is being discussed as much as a full-length series because of their chemistry. Additionally, the plot, costumes, hairstyles, and the meticulous production of the scenes also contribute to this.
Zheng Ye Cheng is literally carrying this drama with his acting. He is a lead actor for long-form dramas, which is why he makes this short series feel just as high-quality. Viewers are watching him in absolute awe 🥹. (My boy is rising once again!)
Saw some edits of zhao qing character on XHS, is there any reason why she's getting a lot of hate comments 🤯
Zhao Qing got involved in a scandal last year. People said that she and Xu Kai were lovers, and that Xu Kai cheated on another woman with her. But it was never proven to be true. Last year, many male actors were involved in ex-girlfriend scandals. Just like the tax scandals that came out before 2025. Haters always find a way to spread slander.
I take the words back — the start is kinda typical 😅 Still great tho
The fact that the storyline is new has also been widely discussed by Chinese netizens. On top of that, a lot of effort has been put into the actors’ makeup and hairstyles. The director mentioned on his Weibo account that he tries to create a different style for each drama and aims for the best look. They really did a great job.
He manages his own private studio. He isn’t affiliated with any powerful agency, which is why his dramas are…
He is truly a wonderful person👌🏻. He doesn’t live by following popular trends. He always does what he believes is right. He promotes Chinese opera, acts in cultural dramas, and also performs in costume dramas
He manages his own private studio. He isn’t affiliated with any powerful agency, which is why his dramas are released very late. But this year, he has a lot of dramas coming out 😍
The managers of the drama Seeds of Scarlet Longing are so kind; they constantly reply to fans in the comments…

The managers of the drama Seeds of Scarlet Longing are so kind; they constantly reply to fans in the comments and do everything they can to promote the series. They even listen to the fans’ heartfelt concerns.
X: “We’re eagerly waiting for Seeds of Scarlet Longing to air soon. Is there hope before the New Year, Director Du?” Du Hao Duuu: “It won’t make it before Spring Festival, it has to be after New Year’s Eve. The exact date is still waiting for notice, but we’ll try to meet during the winter break～”
Du Hao Duuu replying to X: “Okay! Rushing like crazy.”

I’m honestly tired of seeing those baby-faced actors who have no clue about fight scenes in Wuxia dramas 😂😂. Sadly, the industry values popularity over real talent.

Actually, I don’t know the actors you mentioned, so I wasn’t aware of it. But in a drama I watched recently, I saw that such scenes were done by stunt doubles. Since it’s very dangerous, not every actor chooses to do it. Actors who perform all their scenes without using stunt doubles deserve more recognition—because they truly earn it.
The drama continues to achieve greater success every passing day. Netizens are highly praising the acting performances of Zheng Yecheng and Zhao Qing. This series has truly become a massive hit.
Ahahah, I guess they’re aware of it too 😋
