Si Jin (似锦) is adapted from the novel written by Dong Tian De Liu Ye (Willow Leaves In Winter). The novel is a rebirth revenge theme by our female lead. She is betrothed to marry some Duke but on the day of her wedding, he and another woman jump into a lake and die. She then travels back in time to when she was fifteen years old to start over and seek vengeance on those who had wronged her.
Airing 3/1~
Following the footsteps of Chinese Paladin franchise, we have another adaptation for 2024, this one is also called Sword and Fairy (又见逍遥). Seriously? Seriously? You can’t give it a new name to stop the confusion with the one starring Xu Kai and Esther Yu aired last year? 🤦 It’s adapted from the first game and if you remember Hu Ge and Liu Yi Fei made a splash afterwards. He Yu is currently entertaining me in The Legend of Shen Li so I guess they want to keep momentum going for him, hence this is coming out now. Looks like he also has some Immortal friends coming with him to here too. Lol
Airing 4/2 ~
I’m embarrassed to say it took me four days to compile this list. In the past, only 2 days! A galore of Trailers and new stills!
Which drama (s) are you looking forward to?
Celestial Authority Academy (通天书院) is adapted from the novel written by Shu Lan. The story follows the hi-jinks that take place at the renowned Tong Tian Academy, established by the big four royal families for privileged kids. Our female lead (Xu Hao) is a popular writer that has fans lining up, including the Queen. Because of her popularity, she’s accepted into Tong Tian Academy cross-dressing as a male. There she meets the four trouble makers, starting with our male lead, played by Zhou Yan Chen. Why does this feel like a watered down version of Sungkyunkwan Scandal? Lol.
Airing 2/25 (If you’re VIP, you get the full series) ~
Of the three dramas, I’m only interested in the one pictured above…. can you blame me!?
What’s the occasion? Drama The Rise of Phoenixes drops a wagon of character stills just an hour ago. We usually get like 6 or 9 stills but over 20?! Thank-you for being generous production team! The rich and dark color palette stands out. SO PRETTY!
