Promo Round-up: The Blue Whisper

#TheBlueWhisper premieres tonight. #Dilraba #RenJialun

The Blue Whisper Part 1 tells of an angsty romance between spirit controller Ji Yunhe (Dilraba) and pretty merman Changyi (Ren Jialun) who gives his tail for legs. Part 1 ends with the leads misunderstanding each other, though from the trailer it seems like they’ll eventually work together again to defeat the tyrannical Princess Shunde (Guo Xiaoting). I didn’t like the previous merman-related…

Promo Round-up: Be My Princess

#BeMyPrincess premieres tonight. #XuZhengxi #ZhouJieqiong

I’m usually not a rom-com person, but the premise for iQiyi rom-com Be My Princess has definitely caught my attention. Xu Zhengxi (The Autumn Ballad) plays an aloof actor who literally embodies his character after getting into a car accident. Zhou Jieqiong (Legend of Fei) stars as his bewildered costar, who must play along and help him recover. Directed by Huang Tianren (Here To Heart, Someday…

Promo Round-up: Royal Feast

#XuKai #WuJinyan's Royal Feast premieres today.

I thought it would be a drama set mostly in the imperial kitchen, but the trailers for Royal Feast makes it look like the typical palace romance between a maid turned empress (Wu Jinyan) and the future emperor (Xu Kai). The 40 episode drama will stream on Mango TV – viewing calendar can be found here. Trailer 1, Romance BTS (more…)

Mirror: A Tale Of Twin Cities, City of Streamer and more to premiere next week #LiYifeng #ChenYuqi

Happy New Year! There’s plenty of dramas premiering over the next few days, so I thought I’d cover them all in the same post. Which ones are you looking forward to watching the most? On a side note, I just started watching time-loop drama Reset, and it’s pretty good so far. It’s not the thriller I was expecting, though I do like how it spends time developing the backstories of the other bus…

Promo Round-up: Sword Snow Stride

Promo Round-up: #SwordSnowStride #ZhangRuoyun

Coming from the writer of Joy of Life, Sword Snow Stride follows a youngster’s (Zhang Ruoyun) journey from a good-for-nothing noble to swashbuckling hero. As this is only the first season, I don’t think we’ll be able to see the hero getting involved in any warfare as a powerful general. This is why I hate seasonal formats, especially when the first season is already 38 episodes. Theme…

XDRAMAsX's 2021 Drama Review

I dropped Song of Youth within 30 minutes after realising the show wasn’t the female ensemble it promoted itself to be, but Lamu Yangzi’s imitation of Luoshen is just too hilarious not to post. 2021 seemed to be a year where the drama in C-ent was more gripping than the fictional stories playing out onscreen, but I still went through a fair share of interesting television shows. Which ones did…
