New Cdrama Trailers at the 2026 Tencent Video V Vision Conference

And the last compiled post for me! I won’t be doing these posts in the future because it’s too time-consuming and usually by the time I put the post up, most have seen the trailers on other platforms. No point in me rehashing another version. As always, I only included dramas with trailers since the stills will be in their individual post.

For those new to this routine, each streaming platform (tencent, mango, youku, iqiyi, etc) has a few conferences each year to showcase their upcoming dramas, roping in potential advertisements and interest.

Videos may take a few seconds to load.

Liu Xue Yi and Meng Zi Yi join the political marriage wagon in The Princess‘s Gambit

The Princess‘s Gambit (桃花映江山) is adapted from the novel written by Bai Lu Cheng Shuang.

Synopsis Per WeTv: The story is set during a time when the world is divided into three kingdoms. The Wei Kingdom is powerful but embroiled in a fierce struggle for the throne; the Wu Kingdom is focused on development and strategic planning; and the Zhao Kingdom is in turmoil, with Empress Lu controlling the court, putting the country in jeopardy. Princess Jiang Taohua of Zhao, ambitious and determined, seeks to escape Empress Lu’s control by arranging a political marriage with Wei. However, upon arriving in Wei, she is attacked by wolves and later wakes up to find herself accused of an affair with Chancellor Shen Zaiye. To stay in Wei, she offers to become Shen Zaiye’s concubine, making her a thorn in his side. Despite this, Jiang Taohua, who is poisoned, must fulfill Empress Lu’s task to bring down the Crown Prince. Shen Zaiye, while known as a tough and unyielding official, secretly desires to support a wise ruler and strengthen Wei. However, he falls into a trap while investigating palace smuggling, leading to his unintended entanglement with Jiang Taohua. Although Shen sets a deadly trap to remove her, Jiang’s willingness to risk her life earns his respect. Forced to live in Shen’s household, Jiang faces challenges from Shen’s wives and concubines, as well as his combative sister. But having grown up in Zhao’s treacherous palace, Jiang easily handles the internal household conflicts. Desperate to complete her mission and get the antidote for her poison, Jiang sneaks out of the estate to seek help, even as Shen keeps a close watch on her. As they clash and outwit each other, mutual feelings start to develop. Jiang soon discovers that the Crown Prince is also Shen’s political enemy, and offers to help him take the prince down, along with the various wives and concubines planted by political forces around Shen. The two form an alliance, and as they work together, they manage to expose the prince’s crimes to the emperor, causing the fall of the Eastern Palace. However, the struggle for the throne only intensifies from there.

Liu Xue Yi joins the 3-drama club this year as well! I think his dramas have the closest range of airing within each other, A Moment but Forever in late March, then Love Never Fails followed in late April, and now this at the end of june.

Airing 6/25~

Liu Xue Yi’s costume drama Love Never Fails swapped female lead to Hu Yi Xuan and secured air date

Aigoo, so many mixed feelings about this drama. 1) I thought it would never air because of Yuan Bing Yan’s tax evasion 2) Hu Yi Xuan filling in the female lead role must not have been easy and I hope she doesn’t get compared and dragged down, I like her quite a bit! 3) Yuan Bing Yan ah, a bright future ahead of you and this is where we end up? T_T 4) In any case, I hope this gains some success/popularity to balance out the efforts spent by the cast and crew on re-filming many, many scenes. 🤞🤞🤞

Per Qiyi: The drama is adapted from Shu Ke’s novel “When Spring Ends, I’ll See You Again” and tells the story of the deity Jin Xiu, who tries to help a camellia spirit, Hong Ning, ascend to immortality. However, a bond lasting a millennium forms between them, and in the end, it is Hong Ning who helps Jin Xiu attain humanity. [You can read my previous post for novel spoilers.]

Airing today 4/28~
