Opposite attracts as rival tribe members Li Yi Tong and Bi Wen Jun light up the sparkles in Warm on a Cold Night

Synopsis From Viki because the Qiyi’s plot gave me rash reading it: Su Jiu Er (Li Yi Tong) is a young, talented, and personable female constable with a keen investigatory mind. She hails from the Qian Kingdom, meaning she is in possession of a rabbit-like spirit – and that she constantly feels cold. She is attracted to warmth, wherever she can find it. During the course of her investigations, she is forced to go undercover, where she comes across Han Zheng (Bi Wen Jun), a member of the Qi Kingdom’s ruling family.

Han Zhen is imbued with a wolf-like spirit, which grants him phenomenal strength and agility. It also makes his skin incredibly warm to the touch – a factor that makes Su Jiu Er want to cuddle up to him! But he lacks interpersonal skills, and is harsh and abrasive to everyone he meets. Opposites attract, however – and this unusual duo forms an increasingly close bond as they investigate a strange murder case that involves both of their kingdoms! Will their hot-cold connection lead them to love?

With almost zero promotion, Chinese Remake of Korean drama W begins airing with Zhao Yao Ke and Chang Bin

Next Stop Your World (下一站你的世界) is adapted from the Korean drama W with Han Hyo Joo and Lee Jong Suk which aired in 2016. The story follows our female lead who finds herself in her father’s webtoon, meeting and falling in love with the main character.

Not sure what the production is doing here, I’m scratching my head at their barely-there approach to promoting this drama. Coming from a highly popular Kdrama, the weibo home page has exactly 2 trailers and 2 posters. Lol. Is it because each episode is only around 10-11 minutes long so they don’t think it’s worth to foot out the money for advertisements? Hoping it would be a sleeper hit type of drama?

Begins airing 2/16~

A League of Nobleman with Boran Jing and Song Wei Long suddenly begins airing

A League of Nobleman is adapted from the novel written by Da Feng Gua Guo, starring Boran Jing and Song Wei Long. It is an ancient detective novel, many calling it similar to Sherlock. One of our leads is Zhang Ping (Song Wei Long), a poor scholar who becomes a successful candidate in the imperial examination and later designated as a country magistrate. Due to his sharp observational skills, he solves many murder cases and eventually appoints a prime minister. During his journey to the capital to take the imperial exam, he meets our other male lead, an elegant Minister of Rites (Boran Jing) and saves his life. From then on, two people with different backgrounds join hands and go through many life-and-death situations together.

P.S: It is NOT a BL drama. The author tagged the novel as non-romance. Also, the drama screenwriter changed a lot of stuff so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wulin Heroes (武林有侠气) is adapted from the novel written by Bai Ze.

YouKu describes the story: Ye Xi, a kindhearted woman determined to become a martial arts hero, had fantasies about the martial arts world and true love when she first entered this world. She kept fighting for the weak against the strong, yet she didn’t know that human beings could be evil and was repeatedly exploited, cheated and betrayed. She was even betrayed by the “kind martial arts master” who she had thought she could rely on. Her reputation was ruined and someone attempted to murder her for a few times. However, despite those heavy setbacks, Ye Xi remained true to her original aspiration and believed that good would always prevail over evil. She tried her best to reveal the truth and clear her name. During this time, Bai Yue, a miracle-working doctor saved her many times and was always by her side. Ye Xi also grew up, became stronger and more confident and learned what real love and martial arts spirit truly are. With Bai Yue’s help, Ye Xi wiped out the evil people who framed her and became a true hero.
