First Stills Released for Romance of A Twin Flower with Ding Yu Xi and Peng Xiao Ran

Romance of A Twin Flower (春闺梦里人) is adapted from the novel The Dreamer in the Spring Boudoir written by Bai Lu Cheng Shuang. In the novel, she’s a woman in the modern world whose body transmigrated into the body of the second female lead in the novel that she’s reading. Second female lead is Male Lead’s abandoned first wife and the most villainous of them all. In the drama adaptation though, our heroine is a twin and has amnesia after an accident. And somehow magically finds herself replacing her twin sister in the Hou Manor, using her wits to solve many crises for the family and winning the heart of the Hou Young Master.

I think they will tame down our Male Lead in the drama version….because he’s not so nice in the novel and I see some novel fans questioning how the FL can even like him. Sounds like he’s misunderstood? But the things I read he did doesn’t sound like a misunderstanding. Lol. O.O

    Not that she’s old or anything, but Peng Xiao Ran looks really youthful for her age, I think because of her really bright eyes and soft features. I find that she pairs well visually with all of her male leads, who are usually a little younger than her. Of course, it helps that she’s very pretty and would probably look good with anyone.

      Omg she’s 31??! Did not know that. I guess she hit it big until later?

      DYX is only 26. Not big of a difference. But he has almost the same styling here as Romance of Tiger and Rose, even the title is very similar.

        Tell me about it. I thought I was looking at Romance of Tiger and Rose when I saw his pic. LOL!

    !!!There might be spoilers here!!! I just don’t know how to hide them.
    I have read the translated novel. Oh no. I am not sure about Ding Yuxi, because he looks kinda sweet—he did portray the ML in Tiger and Rose, which had some level of morally ambiguity to it, so perhaps he can pull this one off. Let’s see. It’s just that the novel ML is a totally manipulative and scheming arse—he’s a very anti-hero sort of character. I dunno, imagine Dao Mingsi (2001 version) crossed with the cunning of Ning Yi. I can see Peng Xiao Ran pulling off the female character (her acting in Jun Jiu Ling is quite spot on for a female lead that can handle herself). The novel for me is a cross between Love Destiny (Thai drama) in which the female lead wakes up in the evil FLs body and has to make everyone see her change x The Sword and the Brocade (or how to fend off your numerous concubines and save your neck whilst you’re at it) x And has hints of Story of Minglan + Rebel Princess + Jun Jiu Ling, etc. And they changed Nie Qingyun? Why? The Nie sibling bond is one of the most endearing relationships there.

      Thanks for the spoilers + tidbits Anita!

      A lot of combos from other series you listed for this drama. Lol. I’m just hoping DYX can pull this off but I’m worried that they will be changing the ML character too much so he stay pretty vanilla~

        It’s a fine balancing act. On one hand changing the ML to a vanilla one wouldn’t make his turnaround satisfying. *Cue evil cackle* On the other hand, ML being a psychopathic jerk is a turn-off (at least for me). Ha. But fingers-crossed for this one!
