Shawn Dou’s drama From Survivor to Healer drops new trailer, hinting at approaching broadcast

Shawn Dou Xiao‘s latest modern drama From Survivor to Healer (爱上你治愈我) might be the first to air (bought by YouKu)! Survivor reunites him with several friends; Miao Miao, who played Xiao Qi in Princess Agents, Tribes and Empire: Storms of Prophecy’s costar Peng Guan Ying who plays the third leg, and director Cao Dun from Tribes too. The story doesn’t seem anything extraordinary; he falls in love with the heroine in medical school but their families encounter unfortunate events, forcing our hero to avoid the love of his life and she decides to study abroad in Germany. Five years later, their teacher refers both of them to work at a hospital, allowing our hero to slowly win back his lady love, but she only softens as her mother undergoes medical treatments and he remains at her side. Peng Guan Ying develops feelings for the heroine but she rejects him cleanly. Then one day our hero discovers that his mom died eight years ago because of a car accident and is thrown into self-blame, doubting his career achievements, only recovering with the help of his love. The two later decide to pursue more education in Germany, forgoing marriage.

I know the plot is typical but the new trailer suggests some gripping dramatic performances from the leads and supporting cast.

To be honest, I just miss his brighter-than-my-future smile onscreen. xD

First Impression: What do you think of Our Glamourous Time with Zhao Li Ying and Jin Han?

The new music video by Kym makes this drama look like it’s made for die-hard fans of Li Ying who has been starved of her OTP scenes in recent dramas because it’s loaded with sweet moments between her and Jin Han. Lol. He’s quite tall around her too so when he pulls her in for a hug, I just melt. Of course, all based on a 4-minute music video.

I want to be swooned, show, ya hear me?!

Jin Han sweeps Zhao Li Ying off her feet in Our Glamorous Time’s first teaser

I’m sure I read that this story is about the business industry (boring!) but the first teaser makes it quite exciting with Jin Han literally sweeping Zhao Li Ying off her feet and stealing hugs and one kiss (so far). There are also quite a few cameos from other celebrities. Can you catch them all? Lol. Our Glamorous Time (你和我的倾城时光) is adapted from Ding Mo‘s novel and our male lead returns home from the military to help his family from bankruptcy and is involved in a guaranteed sweet love story with our strong yet feminine female lead.
