It looks good, very good. The name Zhao Ge (朝歌) comes from the last of a series of cities that served as capital of the Shang dynasty, and later capital of State of Wei [Wiki.] It is a fantasy historical drama retelling the wars between the Shang and Zhou dynasties written and produced by Yu Zheng. Yea, that’s the catch to all the pretty!
Well, well, well. Another shelved Chen Xiao’s drama, Above The Clouds (云巅之上), finally got the green light to air after two years. You will see the usual Yu Zheng’s stars (boys from Memory Lost), beside the OTP couple played by Chen Xiao and Yuan Shan Shan, with her starring as a country pumpkin going to the city to find her biological mother but somehow ends up as an actress who struggles against numerous showbiz wars and current flower ladies.
I know I’m no longer twelve but the thought of having a snow day off from work tomorrow sends me into cloud 9!
With history experts and a new stylist (He Qian from Huang Xiao Ming’s Xuan Zang) on board, maybe Zhao Ge will be Yu Zheng’s turnaround drama?

I just love watching behind-the-scene videos these days. Really gives you another perspective into the work behind all these grand productions.
Another reunion. Well, this one is not new since it started filming in September of 2016. But the of stills were released just this morning and it’s all familiar faces from Yu Zheng‘s company because he’s the….writer. Expect to see Zhang Zhe Han, Li Yi Tong, Wu Jin Yan, Merxat, Bai Yu and more from both Demon Girl and Memory Lost cast members. Zhao Ge (朝歌) is a fantasy historical drama retelling the wars between Shang and Zhou dynasties with a touch of volatile inaccuracies and romances added in by Yumama. Synopsis credit: Me. PUHAHAHAHA.
