Liang Chen Mei Jin (良陈美锦) is adapted from the novel written by Chen Xiang Hui Jin. The costars in The Rise of Ning reunited but this time he is her male lead. 😀 The plot of this one is starting to look like the run of the mills of rebirth-second-chance costume dramas where the female lead is given a chance to live again and wants to undo the things she did in the past/first life. Anyhoo, the drama synopsis looks cleaner, as usual, with our heroine being raised/spoiled by her grandparents; she then returns back to her parents’ place, where the fun begins, and she meets three men.
Filming started a few days ago~

The Rise of Ning (锦绣安宁) is adapted from the novel written by Wen Tan.
From WeTV: Luo Yining, unbound by traditional formalities, frequently stood up for her downtrodden “Third Brother” Luo Shenyuan, discovering his hidden talents in the process. After heartbreak, she aimed for independence by starting a business. Luo Shenyuan, wrongfully accused, sought the truth about his mentor’s death. Grateful for Yining’s support, he helped her when her business faced difficulties, and their mutual understanding grew into love.
With Shenyuan’s help, Yining punished her mother’s murderer and managed her business well. Encouraged by Yining, Shenyuan excelled in the imperial exams and uncovered the truth behind his mentor’s wrongful death. Together, they cleared his mentor’s name, brought the culprits to justice, and lived a peaceful life.
Airing 10/10~ The battle of dramas in October about to get fiery!

Five Kings of Thieves (五行世家) is adapted from the novel written by Zhang Hai Fan. Hoping for fans’ sake that it doesn’t get pulled last minute like last time! The synopsis is quite long so I added it after the trailers below!
Begins airing today 3/23!

White Cat Legend (大理寺少卿游) takes place in the divine capital under the rule of the Empress. During a banquet at the Tang Palace, Li Bing (played by Ding Yuxi), who is highly regarded by the empress, is appointed as the Assistant Minister of Dali Temple. Within Dali Temple, Chen Shi (played by Zhou Qi), Wang Qi (played by Feng Man), Alibaba (played by Waer), Cui Bei (played by Ding Jiawen), and Sun Bao (played by Zhang Yicong) work together under the guidance of the newly appointed Assistant Minister, Li Bing, to unravel the layers of mist in the imperial capital.

It’s adapted from the Manhua of the same name written by R.C. There’s also a donghua you can watch here (Season 1). Check out this tumblr for useful info including links to the translated manhua and Season 2 English-Hardsubbed.
Airing 2/20~

The Longest Promise (玉骨遥) is an upcoming fantasy drama based loosely on the novel Zhu Yan (prequel to the Li Yi Feng’s Mirror drama) written by Cang Yue (Listening Snow Tower). Ren Min plays a kind and headstrong princess of the Chi Clan who escapes an arranged marriage (her name is the name of the novel; looks like we can expect a lot of changes to make this Male Lead-centered drama), and Xiao Zhan plays a cold and aloof royal prince who is sent to the mountains to cultivate (due to the Grand Priest’s premonition of him falling in love with a girl). He is nine years older than her and she becomes his disciple… their destiny and romance tied to the future of Kong Sang Kingdom. At one point, she draws his blood. If you like the leads (or one of them) stabbing one another, this is your drama! 😛
