Fighting For Love (阿麦从军) is adapted from the novel written by Xian Cheng. It follows the journey of our female lead who tragically lost her family to her childhood sweetheart, forcing her to put on male clothing to protect herself. She then joins the military and quickly rises the ranks due to her accomplishment. Our heroine will meet many men in her disguise; one of them being son of the Crown Princess, and the other is a general from the opposing camp.
To air 1/31~
The Trust (恩爱两不疑) is the drama adaptation of the popular manhua No Doubt In Us aka Liang Bu Yi from author Lu Ye Qian He, You Zhi Jiao Zi. The story sounds absolutely adorable. Our main couple is the King and Queen respectively. She’s from a general’s family, so she likes to fight, ride horses, archery, while our King is weak and likes to read. She marries him but due to family issues and their complete opposite personalities, they never get along and prefer to stay out of each other’s way. However, one day, they fall in a pool together (she pushes him when he gets too close, hehe) and their souls swapped! Now she’s the King who needs to attend the courtly matters and even go to battle, while he finally realizes his harem is not a very nice place, including his own mother, the Empress Dowager. They see things from each other’s shoes, beginning to emphasize and understand, get close and develop feelings.
You can read the English Translated of the webcomics here. There’s also 2 seasons of animation too.
Airing 4/6~
Whoopsie! This post is nearly 2 weeks late. It was just sitting in my draft section as the airing dramas one after another distracted me. Lol.
A few dramas airing on the same day here… I wonder if the new frenzy to secure a slot is done so before the “clean-up crew” finds something they don’t like to shelve a drama indefinitely.
Qiyi’s synopsis: After Lu Yuan Zhi fell apart with his teacher and suffered oppression from his seniors, he left Beiping and headed to Shanghai. With his hard work, he earned recognition in Shanghai. When war erupted in Beiping, Lu Yuan Zhi headed back and swore not to make cheongsams for the Japanese. He used his skills to become one of the greatest costume designers of China.
Interesting topic and I expect to see a lot of pretty cheongsam/qipao!
Airing 8/31~

Here’s a long compilation of teasers and trailers released at various events this past week such as the iQiYi iJoy and Tencent video conference. Sorry, I can’t physically make 20+ separate posts for each of them. I think I have written about the majority before so it’s nothing new. Just a peek from different online platforms for what’s coming up next for them.
Which ones are you looking forward to?
