Yang Mi and William Chan film new fantasy drama Novoland: Pearl Eclipse

Novoland: Pearl Eclipse (九州·斛珠夫人) is adapted from the novel written by Xiao Ru Qin and stars Yang Mi and William Chan. The novel is a bit creepy since he is much older than her, took her in and raised her, then they develop feelings for each other. Plus, he’s a powerful eunuch. BAH. I’m sure the drama will change that up. Lol. Anyway, in the drama she plays daughter of the merfolks and her entire village and people are slaughtered due to the people’s obsession with pearls and pearls were created from merfolk’s tears. During this uncertain period, our heroine is taken in by the hero who is a powerful official of the imperial court, and she disguises as a male disciple by his side. After they return to the capital, the job of guarding the King is given to her. And he’s the third leg of this love triangle. The King has long given up on his court, exhausted by the internal and external turmoils, therefore he sits back and watches our male lead’s struggle to save the country. When he finds out his pretty guard is a girl, his feelings complicate everything.

    There’s a genre for this type of story where the male lead raises the female lead: 養成系

    I typically run the other way when I see this trope. I’m hoping they change this in the drama…

      Didn’t there’s a genre! Ever Night, sadly, came to me first (but they’re actually grew up together since Ning Que was 5 years old when he took baby Sang Sang). And you know what’s second? Hua Qian Gu :D.

        Yes, I kept seeing these types of stories pop up and wondered if there was an actual name of this genre. Of course there is one, not sure why I even wondered lol.

        Ah, that’s right, there’s Hua Qian Gu…
