Bai Jing Ting rewinds time to solve cases in modern drama Mobius

Mobius (不眠日) is adapted from the novel written by Zhang Xiao Mao.

Synopsis Per Qiyi: The series follows a brilliant and fearless “super detective” at the Hua’ao City Police Department, famed for solving every case that comes his way. But when a string of seemingly flawless murders occurs, his limits are pushed to the brink. The killer moves like a ghost, leaving no trace behind, as though they never existed. Amidst the shifting tides and hidden dangers of Hua’ao City, every shadow may conceal a deadly threat.

Airing 9/4~

The amount of trio-dramas from the same actor this year is insane! I think if you’re gonna drop three dramas in a year, make sure it’s different genre and flavors! You don’t want your roles to melt together.

Ancient Detective drama Guardians of the Dafeng with Wang He Di and Tian Xi Wei confirms December broadcast

Guardians of the Dafeng (大奉打更人) is adapted from the novel The Nightwatchers of Feng written by Mai Bao Xiao Lang Jun. Dylan plays a modern day policeman who transmigrated back in time and into the body of a constable of Dafeng city, who at the time is in prison, waiting to be exiled, thanks to his uncle’s huge loss of silver. Using his deduction and reasoning skills, he manages to solve the case and find the culprit. And thus begins his journey of investigating and solving mysterious crimes in the vast city. In the novel, our male lead has plenty of attention from the ladies but the drama adaptation seems to have changed that slightly by pinpointing Tian Xi Wei as his main love interest. She plays a proud and rebellious princess Lin An.

Reset (开端) is based on the mystery-thriller novel written by Qi Dao Jun. It follows a group of people on a bus with an eventual explosion happening. Every passenger on the bus has their own story, difficulties as they board the bus of doom (my translation).
