Hunan to air Zhang Han Yun, Andy Chen’s Princess of Lan Ling

We are almost there guys!! Finally some good news for us! The highly anticipated drama, Princess of Lan Ling (兰陵王妃), adapted from the novel written by Yang Qian Zi, is scheduled to premiere online at Mango TV on September 29th October, having been bought by Hunan and shelved till now (4 years?). With that, I’m sad to share the news that one of the cast members is no longer with us in this world. I wasn’t able to share the news back then, but she’s remembered fondly by the cast and friends and deserves a spot in your heart for her courageous fight against cancer.

Stills:

Our female lead, Kristy Zhang Han Yun. The story revolves around the last descendant of the Dragon Sect, Duan Mu Ling (Kristy Zhang), out on a journey to find the missing treasures (mirror and sword). Her mission is to ensure that these powerful treasures fall in the right hand, someone chosen by the heavens. And of course, she has to meet the Prince of Lan Ling (Andy Chen) and the pitiful Yu Wen Yong (Guan Ying Peng) to mess up their lives and her entangle her fate.

Lan Ling Wang’s once beloved woman, played by Wang Jie Xi. She passed away last year after battling Leukemia. When she died, many of her co-stars took it to Weibo to grieve, including Andy Chen, Zhu Yi Long, and Yan Kuan (they worked together on Xin Xiao Shi Yi Lang.) She was born in 1989. A very young, aspiring person at that.

    FINALLY.

    This is the longest I’ve had to wait for a drama to be released. Singing All Along was a long wait but nothing like this.

    I remember Wang Jie Xi’s passing. So young. She played Wu Shuang in Xiao Shi Yi Lang and it was heartbreaking to watch some of her scenes on top of all the angst that was already there. She looks beautiful here and I wish she’ll be remembered by audiences like this.

    Yay, a longer version of Firefly! Still hoping for the full version though, haha. Sometimes I still watch the trailer just to get to this song.

    Thanks for sharing this, Kap. Hope you’ve been resting! 🙂

      I’m pretty useless right now, Polaris. The meaning of cherishing what you have rings louder than ever now.

      I remember reading her last weibo post, asking fans to wait for her return. So much sadness in a life lost so young.

      A full music video of Firefly will be released sometime this weekend/early next week. 🙂

        Kap, you’re not useless. You have many other things to accomplish now that you made it. Make the most out of what you have? 🙂

        I’m pretty sure she’s a star up there with Kimi and Yao Beina, looking down on us.

        Sweet! Now I can stop watching the trailer haha.

    Funny how only two days ago I was trying to find news of this drama and voila! It’s finally here!
    Let’s hope they stick to the Oct release date. It’s been too long. Much too long!
    And I hope all that waiting will translate to an excellent drama!

      I know right? Yuwen ship has always been my ship since the first trailer!! They are so beautifully angsty!!

        FINALLLLY.
        It felt like an eternity, LOL.
        I’m also on the wrong ship…huzzah. Hopefully my heart is strong enough for it tho. :c
        But at least based on the trailers, it seems like she give both guys a chance. Whereas in
        Ariel’s version, it was so obvious that she loved LinLangWang more.

    Omg finally a drama that gives the character of Lan Ling Wang the CORRECT characteristic. The previous drama about Lan Ling Wang was good but throughout the whole series, I just can’t over the fact that they really miscast Feng Xiao Feng as Lan Ling Wang. Don’t get me wrong, I think he acted well and I liked him in other dramas but he just doesn’t fit the character. Lang Ling Wang was said to be one of the most beautiful man even prettier than a woman, but when he puts on his mask and go into battle, he is fearless and invincible. Feng Xiao Feng was too manly and everytime they tried to pull off the he being “beautiful” scene, it’s so cringe worthy I want to cry.
    I’m glad this drama, from the still, Andy actually looks beautiful. Looking forward to it.
    Btw is it just me or Kristy Zhang does look like Ariel Lin in a few angles?

      lol. i think we established that they cast baby zhang on purpose because of her resemblance to ariel four years ago. holy… its been shelved for that long…. LOL.

      but feng shao feng has such awesome chemistry with ariel, so i let it pass when she mistaken him as jie jie. hahaha

        It really had been 4 years. Time flies by I didn’t even notice. I was wondering why this drama just came up now. Totally thought I just missed it and that this was a newer version.
        Feng Xiao Feng did had great chemistry with Ariel. I feel like she have great chemistry with most of her co-stars though, it’s like she brings out the best in them and blasted that chemistry off the screen. (Like with Joe Cheng and Bolin Chen and even with HuGe)
        I do kinda miss her since she left Dramaland.
        Lan Ling Wang was a good drama regardless of my disagreement on Feng Xiao Feng not looking beautiful. Beside the fact that he didn’t look the part, he was great in everything else that’s why I sat through it from beginning to end. Hopefully this new one is good too. Many dramas have beautiful premise and stills then completely fail to deliver so I’m crossing my fingers. Lol

What do you think?
