I think if they're going to remake a classic drama, they should at least try to do it better lol this drama is so obviously low budget, I'm confused what the point is. It doesn't improve on anything from the original.
I don’t think there will be much promotion with what has happened.Zhang Ling He is having such a bad year😢
I think people confused the promo vid from last year with the actual drama lol no he was never lined up for a cameo. he would've been credited if that was the cast. he does have a cameo in fox spirit matchmaker.
The allegations are she has multiple shell companies to signed YinYang contracts and payments diverted to her…
when were these set up? she's only 25 years old now and I read that these illegal activities started in 2017 when she was 19 years old. She's also a former child actress with parents handling her finances.. I wonder how much she knew about or how much was set up by her parents.
What a mess for IQIYI and the director. This is the director's second drama in a row stuck in limbo because of legal issues surrounding the main lead. This was almost ready to air too. I think regardless of the result of Song's tax case, this will not air in the immediate future while investigations are ongoing.
Yang Mi finished her dubbing for this drama on the 12th. I hope with all the mess surrounding other IQIYI dramas, they'll consider moving up this one. I can't wait until CNY break :(
I've always wondered.. why don't production companies sell the rights to these BL dramas to overseas streaming sites? is there something preventing them from doing so? there's a large market for BL dramas overseas. It just seems dumb to sit on these dramas and accept the financial loss.
honestly the way this drama keeps getting dragged back and forth by melon accounts reminds me of the banned BL dramas. I think everyone looking forward to this drama should just ignore melon accounts from now on because it doesn't seem like any of them have any real information and are just using the drama for attention.
don't think it's airing tomorrow. just saw a melon that said it hasn't passed 2nd review yet. also, IQIYI is airing the new XZ drama on Sept 1 with Demon Hunter most likely being aired in early Sept. Think this might go back to its original October time slot.
But it's different when younger man and older woman cast, people will feel offensive and trigger if i tell older…
oh no, that's not what I meant lol I mean their age difference (5 years) isn't large. It's just LingHe /looks/ older than his age lol he's currently filming a drama with JingTian and she's 9 years older than him but they don't look like they have much age difference. I think it's because he's very tall (~190 cm).
I'm actually interested in this duo. This is the first time LingHe is acting opposite a younger actress in a historical drama. Most of his co-stars are older.
Dumping a drama with little to no promotion or announcement have become quite the status quo, the only drama I…
LY7T was IQIYI's big summer drama so it got all the promotion budget. sadly, it kind of flopped which is why they're suddenly speeding up the release of episodes.
OK latest and most important news. The drama is being submitted for 2nd review tomorrow. If it gets the signature, it'll most likely drop on the 27th. It all depends on whether it passes the review tomorrow (Friday).
hmm read on xiaohongshu that some industry insiders have seen some clips and they think the second ML/FL pair will be a hit. they seem to have the juicier roles than the leads.
rumors might actually be true that it’s airing next week, since LY7T is ending on august 30this and then demon…
yeah I just saw. LY7T is changing to daily broadcasts with 2 episodes each, ending Aug 30. I wonder if this will drop 27th or 31st.. although it makes little difference between those dates since it's end of summer anyways and students are returning to school. I just hope they promote well. so far there has been no promotions.
I think the biggest criticism I would make about this drama is the filter they've added. I think because the cast are on the older side, they wanted to smoothen their wrinkles but sometimes the filter and lighting is really overdone lol ML is in his 40s.. they've added such a heavy heavy filter on him that it looks odd
