Airing 5/4~
I’m Just That Type of Girl (我就是这般女子) is a costume comedy drama based on the novel written by Yue Xia Die Ying starring Guan Xiao Tong and Hou Ming Hao as leads. The story follows our outgoing and straightforward heroine who has been unlucky in three proposed marriages. In her latest rejection, she has seen it before in a dream. And when the dream becomes true, she begins to question her other dreams, one of which puts her ill at ease because it involves her father losing his noble title and the family falling to difficult times. What cracks me up is her family’s reaction to her dream….. they want to hide their gold in the mountains. 😂 Her family and their dynamics seem to be the highlight of this drama too, which is lovely! Our male lead is handsome and talented, described as someone who is always scheming, you’re either useful or useless in his eyes. Except for the female lead and her family. Gosh. That sounds super sweet. Looks like we have another greasy male lead, the things he says to her!! Lol. He’s out on a mission to find the culprit behind his family’s demise.
Begins airing 1/18 ~
At first it was five dramas, then 6, 7, 8, and now this post has 11 dramas for this week alone. Oh my gosh, China! Too many!
Upcoming republican suspense webdrama Psych-Hunter (心宅猎人) is adapted from the novel Haunted House Handbook (凶宅笔记) written by Er Shi San. The story follows our male lead, an enthusiastic tradesman in the business of selling haunted houses, his psychologist bro-mate who is searching for his missing dad, and a policewoman who is the sassy daughter of a warlord. A year ago, our male lead was invited to a remote island with six other individuals in a game of death and the only one to survive but he suffers from amnesia. Our psychologist receives a letter with a six-finger seal that shows a count down to our male lead’s time of death (!!) and a group photo. He’s determined to track down his father together with male lead’s special talents. They slowly become a great duo of real estate agents. They take over the haunted houses, get rid of its supernatural beings, then resell the houses. This leads to clues of the true mastermind behind the scene and a big conspiracy surrounding them.
I’m slightly confused about the storyline but it sounds really interesting! Will be subbed by Qiyi!
Airing 11/23 ~

I’m Just That Type of Girl (我就是这般女子) is a comedy period drama based on the novel written by Yue Xia Die Ying starring Guan Xiao Tong and Hou Ming Hao as leads and has recently wrapped up filming. The story follows our outgoing and straightforward heroine who has been unlucky in three proposed marriages. In her latest rejection, she has seen it before in a dream. And when the dream becomes true, she begins to question her other dreams, one of which puts her ill at ease because it involves her father losing his noble title and the family falling to difficult times. What cracks me up is her family’s reaction to her dream….. they want to hide their gold in the mountains. LOL. Her family and their dynamics seem to be the highlight and I’m here for it! So nice to see a supportive family in an ancient drama but they are dramatic though. xD Our male lead is handsome and talented, described as someone who is always scheming, you’re either useful or useless in his eyes. Except for the female lead and her family. Gosh. So sweet. Looks like we have another greasy male lead, the things he says to her!! LOL. He’s out on a mission to find the culprit behind his family’s demise.
