Mark your calendars: Jiarui will be on Mango TV on March 15th! 🎬✨
Our favorite is the star of episode 3 of "My Little One"! The preview already gave it all away: a Rui帅 (handsome) and 萌 (cute) that we can't stop admiring. Stay tuned on the 15th to see every detail of this special appearance. We can't wait! 💙
The promise is renewed: Jiarui and FUNCINATING 2.0! 🤍
Prepare your hearts! FUNCINATING has just announced the second edition of the Jiarui special series, titled 「嘉期如愿」(Jia Qi Ru Yuan) 2.0. This time, the release is a limited edition for White Day, celebrating that romance that arrives as promised. The new collectible cards will be officially revealed on March 14th. Seeing Rui starring in such delicate and aesthetic campaigns only shows how unique his brilliance is. We are already looking forward to this Valentine's Day gift! 🎁💙
Official update: Jiarui in training! ⚔️Tian Jiarui Studio recently shared that martial arts training is already…
Now that we've seen the training photos, I saw an interesting post on Weibo about how these scenes could be used for the official character introduction. The idea is to have a transition starting with Jiarui's martial arts training, specifically those close-ups of the hand seals, and then, the moment he 'throws' a talisman onto the screen, the scene changes to him fully characterized as Yun Jiuchuan with an impactful soundtrack. Looking at how precise his hand movements are in these training photos, I can totally see it happening! This shows his dedication to the mystical elements of the role. I really hope the studio gives us an edit like this! 😍🩷
I wanna share a more detailed description of the three characters ... Yue Jiuchuan, Feng Ya and Gong Qi. All 3…
Thank you so much for sharing these detailed descriptions! Based on everything you've gathered about these characters, it really feels like we are in for a very deep and complex plot. I'm so excited to see how the director will explore all these dynamics on screen. I truly believe it's going to be a masterpiece, especially after seeing Jiarui's costume recently! The quality is spectacular and fits this mystical atmosphere perfectly. Something very special is coming our way!
Thank you for the information! I am trying to understand it's pure fantasy or with elements of pseudo-historical?
Based on the character biographies and the world-building we've seen so far, it’s a mix of both. It’s a Xianxia/Xuanhuan (High Fantasy) at its core, but it uses a pseudo-historical setting as a backdrop. The story takes place in a world with imperial structures (like the 'Marquis’s Mansion' and the 'Duke of Qi'), which gives it that historical, political feel. However, the plot is driven by high fantasy elements: soul reincarnation, metaphysical sects (Xuan Clan), and the 'Heavenly Dao.' So, while the society looks historical, the rules of the world are purely supernatural and mystical.
Tian Jiarui Studio recently shared that martial arts training is already in full swing. Seeing his commitment to physical and technical preparation for the characters is always inspiring. Good things are coming!
I'd like to share this link I found on a very influential and followed account on Weibo. The images show behind-the-scenes set design and what appears to be the official poster design for Jiarui in the drama Soul Judgment of Jiuchuan (Hun Pan Jiu Chuan).
Although it's not yet an official announcement from the production company, the visual details of the set and the slogan on the Yun Jiuchuan character poster seem very consistent with the plot information we have so far. Here's the link for anyone who wants to take a look:
Replying to your question about the cast... SagaTeAles mentioned something really helpful about this earlier in the thread, so I’ll quote their info here:
"No other cast names have been released or confirmed yet... I only saw rumors about He Shiyu, Zhang Shi'an, and Sun Zeyuan, but take this with a huge grain of salt 😃 so far, Rui is the only one confirmed."
> The story follows Yun Jiuchuan, a genius...and I'm done here 🤣 It really sticked to Rui 😂👍Now waiting…
Yes!! I also saw that little paper doll, I thought it was super cute lol. From what I've been researching on that XHS link (the blue text), that doll is like a spirit storyteller who helps Jiuchuan! And you're right, it's going to be a mess separating humans from ghosts lol. I counted about 15 main characters in those leaks... there's everything: there's the ghost general Fu Yuan who is super old, the white tiger, but there's also the human side like his uncle who is an officer, his best friend who protected his soul for years, and even a family patriarch. The coolest thing is that it seems Jiarui will have a 'squad' of allies, both human and supernatural. It's going to be a crazy puzzle, but I'm already loving this mystery vibe! 😍😍🩷
