That’s why I think it will air late May or June. But until Tencent announces an air date or an air drop, we can’t predict anything. Users on this site tend to believe anything hey hear or see and then spread those rumors as if it’s a fact, hence my original comment about waiting for a confirmation from Tencent.

You can’t postpone something that’s never been confirmed. Tencent originally had the CY drama to go against the XZ drama. Now it’s Prisoner of Beauty going against ZHZ. Tencent has never released a date for this show.

Agreed about the production. The director is very old school so I doubt there will be a surprise with the shows quality. Best case scenario is that it tells the story with justice. As for the time slot, hopefully Tencent will pick a time that is appropriate. I will say traffic stars don’t equal successful shows. This year has shown that without a good plot/writer/director, shows with liulangs can flop despite fans going out of their way to create data.

Feels like we’re the poorest drama club in cbiz. Better enjoy this second crumb, I don’t think we’ll get anything else until the drama airs.

Getting a proper edited trailer from this production crew is like pulling teeth. Silver lining is that we’re all in for a surprise when it airs because so far we really don’t know what this show will look like at all.

There’s a costume drama every month. But Tencent is deciding what to air based on what other platforms choose. That’s probably why they don’t want to put anything out right now. It allows them some flexibility if they change their minds.

I think they’re going to airdrop a costume drama depending on vibes/competition so that’s why they don’t want to confirm anything right now.

You just have to wait until the drama’s Weibo account makes the official announcement. Fan pics are not reliable sources, something from the production/crew is considered legit.

I like XK, and I’m a huge ZY fangirl. But hey, it’s nice to know that actors also have the same issues on Weibo 😆. Anyways super pumped for this project, two attractive people in a period drama, and with the right crew, it’s going to be amazing. And it’s also really nice to chat with reasonable fans like you who is also trying to understand c-ent.

Damn girl, college student and fangirl? Thats dangerous lol. Have you been on xiaohongshu? It’s less info, but I find the fans there much more reasonable. I alternate between the two depending on the vibe.

Weibo can be really cool and some fans are really rational and creative. Just be careful with the information there because fan culture especially cfans really thrive on control and entitlement. They think that because they support the stars, they have a say in both their professional and personal life. Fangirling should be fun, not full of anger and stress 😎

One thing cfans will do is demand. Their sense of entitlement is extraordinary. I guess it’s part of following a drama with popular actors, but the fans need to chill. Not everything has to be public. A good production will focus on getting the right director/ writer. Then they should focus on filming. Marketing can start later. It’s proven again and again that just because a drama posts a lot of trendy clips on TikTok doesn’t mean it’ll be successful. And sometimes an airdrop drama can do really well.

New director is promising. Fingers crossed that the writer can adapt this novel because it wasn’t that interesting of a read. But ZY and XK agreed so hopefully they make some good changes.

Budget is the same but Blossom benefitted way more because they had a good director and screenwriter.

To be fair we haven’t had a proper trailer yet. But that Tencent event promo does look kinda amateurish. It doesn’t help that this production crew is not even trying with any marketing. Fingers crossed they’re actually doing proper bts work since filming wrapped up.

This is also not confirmed. Zhou ye’s team usually waits until production starts to make official announcements. These two rumors seem legit so most likely she’ll film Yi Ou Chun first then Red Shoes later this year.

This project would be after Yi Ou Chun. It’s an August start date.

Hopefully the main cast gets to do proper promotion. Magazine covers, photoshoots, and interviews. They’re way too pretty not to have legit marketing.

Yeah if anything it’ll be after The Glory. Since it’s the same author, I’m hoping tencent just airs it consecutively.
