Love and Sword (只此江湖梦) is adapted from the novel by Shen Cang Mei.
Per Wetv: The house girl Fang Yi accidentally crossed into the novel she complained about and accidentally met Chu Tianyao, the owner of the cottage in the book. After several twists and turns, Fang Yi changed her life against the sky with her own intelligence, and she and Chu Tianyao also healed each other and grew in love. The two finally wrote a beautiful love story. (Did AI write these synopsis fro Wetv now?)

Airing 2/7~
Mr. 1,000 Watts Smile is back but his smile is not seen in the intense trailer at all. Same goes for Shi Shi. Will this be my first 2025 drama?
I made it! I made it to the end. Lol. I forgot the fun of live-watching and the pain of waiting for new episodes.
And as with tradition, here’s a finale post for Li Ying’s costume drama. XD
It’s here! It’s here! Man, my stamina is unlike before. This post alone took me one week to write and finish! Are you guys enjoying Shen Li too? I know March is offering a lot of dramas so everyone can pick one for their enjoyment and this is mine. It has been a while since I committed to writing an impression. You see, I’m somewhat of a supportive fangirl too. 😀
Now that the date has been decided for the drama premiere (March 18th for those watching!) we have an influx of promos almost every day. Today, the cast met up for a quick conference.
Kill My Sins (掌心) is a female-centric revenge costume drama. Our heroine hails from a physician family, intelligent and talented. But at a young age, her skills in hypnosis (?) was used by those in power to seduce young girls. When the crimes were leaked, court Counselor tried to gather evidence to charge the officials involved, but all evidence disappeared over night and he found himself and his clan falsely accused, leading to the deaths of his entire family. Our heroine’s family was hunted down and exterminated, and she is the lone survivor. Eighteen years later, she comes to Chang’an as a wandering physician under a different name. Our hero is a young magistrate who lusts after power, he’s cold and ruthless. Even though he’s talented, he’s looked down by other officials for not being of noble blood. Their paths cross when one of her patients die and she’s the last person at the crime scene. He’s in charge of the case. Although he senses something is amiss, he’s too eager to pin the blame on our heroine to rise the ranks. But is our heroine truly innocent, or has the wheels of vengeance already started? MUAHHAHHAHAH. Ok, I added in the last part. XD
Booting ceremony is held today! Other cast members I see: Zheng Ye Cheng and Xuan Lu.
I’m excited for this! The last Li Ying’s drama I watched and finished was the questionable-production-but-I-love-the-cast Legend of Fei. Then Wild Bloom I have only managed to watch half of that drama. Lol. I’m not really a modern drama kinda person ya know. I have my reservations about Shen Li too; with Lin Geng Xin looking exactly like his not-my-favorite character in Princess Agents gave me multiple whiplashes. But I decided to be an adult (heh) and give this couple one more chance to woo me. XD
Zhang Bi Chen once again lends her voice for Li Ying’s drama! This is the 5th one so far. They have become very good friends throughout the years. 😀
Gotta say, the trailer is unexpectedly funny in the latter half. Lol. Li Ying reminds me of Master Shifu from Kung Fu Panda performing his Wuxi Finger Hold. Lol XD
