Cupid's Choice 2 
Wang Yi Bo is a Chinese actor known for his roles in TV series such as The Untamed, Gank Your HeartHidden Blade, Born to Fly, etc.


MXD: I've wanted to watch a drama starring Zhao Lusi and Zhang Linghe for a long time. It would be great to see them in a modern drama. And I believe they will be  a good cast.

SFHE: I think Lusi and Yi Bo will make a nice and refreshing pair, I would like to see them in an enemies-to-lovers, sports idol and fan type of romance drama! 

Cupid Contestant 2

Cupid Contestant 3

Cupid's Choice 1
Lu Yu Xiao is a Chinese actress. She is famous for her dramas like My Journey to YouSee You Tomorrow or Time and Him Are Just Right.

Cupid’s Choice 2

MXD: I would like to see Zheng Ye Cheng and Lu Yu Xiao in a historical drama. They are both very good at historical roles. Zheng Ye Cheng is a very good actor but he hasn't received the recognition he deserves yet. I think you should give him a chance. It would be great to see him in a costume drama with Lu Yu Xiao!
MXD: When I see these two, I think of a historical, non-wuxia, or non-xianxia drama with strong leads. A drama like Story of Kunning Palace, for example.




Cupid Contestant 4
Park Bo Gum is an actor and singer. He is famous for the TV dramas EncounterRecord of YouthLove in the Moonlight, and Reply 1988.

Cupid's Choice 2
Park Bo Young is a South Korean actress. She is famous for her roles in the dramas Oh My Ghost, Strong Woman Do Bing SoonDoom at Your Service, and Daily Dose of Sunshine.

MXD: I watched Moon Ka Young's drama once. I really liked her after True Beauty. I think she and Park Bo Gum match really well. I want to watch them in a youth drama.
SFHE: I’m kinda surprised these two haven’t paired up yet actually, I want to see them in a rom-com for sure, maybe in a kitchen setting? 


Cupid Contestant 5

Cupid's Choice 1
Zheng Ye Cheng is a Chinese actor known for his roles in dramas such as Love 020, An Oriental Odyssey, Love of Thousand Years, The Sleepless Princess, My Sassy Princess.

Cupid's Choice 2
Hou Minghao (Neo Hou) is a Chinese actor best known for his roles in When We Were Young, The Lost Tomb 2, Psych Hunter, and Back From the Brink.

MXD: I would like to see Bai Lu and Chen Zhe Yuan in a xianxia drama. Strong female leads suit Bai Lu very well and I can only imagine Bai Lu in xianxias. When it comes to strong male leads, Chen Zhe Yuan comes to mind. I believe they would have good chemistry. Bai Lu always does a great job no matter who she is paired with.
SFHE: Actually the both of them were set to release a drama together, but it never aired to this date so I really hope they can work together on a project again, maybe a historical drama but not a wuxia.

MXD: I would like to see these two in a psychological, thriller, mystery, romantic drama. I think Seo Yea Ji and Ro Woon are the best choice for this.
SFHE: Just thinking about these two in a drama together is giving me all the powerful vibes, I would like to see them in a she-protects-everyone, he-protects-her kind of action drama.

MXD: To tell you the truth, I've never watched any dramas of either actor before. But I think they would be a good match. A modern, youth, romantic genre drama would be great. Something like Hidden Love.

SHFE: Ok, so this is basically just me putting two of my favorite actors together. I think I want to see Yang Zi play a badass rich female lead while Song Wei Long plays someone from a poor background.

Cupid's Choice 1 
Tan Jian Ci is a Chinese actor, singer, and dancer. He is famous for his TV series Secret of Three Kingdoms, Under the Skin, Lost You Forever, Love Me, Love My Voice, etc.

Cupid's Choice 2
Leo Wu is a Chinese actor best known for his dramas Cross Fire, The Long Ballad, Love Like the Galaxy, Amidst a Snowstorm of Love, etc.

MXD: When I see these two, Xianxia drama comes to mind. It would be great if there was something like Love Between Fairy and Devil. A kind-hearted, innocent princess and a ML with a reputation for evil.
SFHE: Another visual blast for me, just thinking about this pair makes me excited (this one please come true). I want to see them in a slow and healing drama where the romance feels like a tight hug, similar to their respective roles in Meet Yourself and Amidst a Snowstorm of Love. A melodrama would be good to.

Cupid Contestant 10
Kim So Hyun is a South Korean actress who is famous for dramas like School (2015), Bring It On Ghost (2016), Radio Romance, The Tale of Nokdu, Serendipity's Embrace, etc.

Cupid‘s Choice 2
Ryeoun is a Korean actor best known for his roles in 18 Again, Twinkling Watermelon, The Secret Romantic Guest House, etc. 

MXD: Previously, Kim So Hyun and Song Kang shared the lead roles in the drama Love Alarm. But Song Kang was the second male lead there. I hope these two actors will be a couple in another drama. If possible, let it be a drama with a happy ending, a drama like My Demon.
SFHE: I want to them to make a school drama! Please, I can see the vision haha. Something like School  2017: A little dark but made lighter with comedic elements.
                                                  
Cupid Contestant 11
Xiao Zhan is a Chinese actor known for dramas such as Super Star Academy, The Untamed, Douluo Continent, The Oath of Love, etc.

Cupid’s Choice 1
Dilraba is a Chinese actress best known for her roles in Pretty Li Huizhen, Eternal Love of Dream, You Are My Glory, The Legend of Anle, etc. 

Cupids’s Choice 2
Shen Yue is a Chinese actress best known for her roles in A Love So Beautiful, Meteor Garden, Count Your Lucky StarsMr. Bad, etc.  


MXD: I can't even imagine these two being paired up. What a perfect couple they would be. I can't help but think of a xianxia with strong leads. I wish it was a drama like Who Rules the World.
SFHE: I want to see Shen Yue leading a historical drama in the future, specifically a xianxia drama. I think  Xiao Zhan should play a grumpy sunshine kind of role. 

Cupid Contestant 12
Nam Joo Hyuk is a Korean actor best known for his roles in Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo, The Bride of Habaek, Start-up, Twenty Five Twenty One, etc.

Cupid's Choice 1

Cupid’s Choice 2
Go Min Si is an actress best known for her roles in dramas like Love Alarm, Sweet Home, Youth Of May, etc.

SFHE: I want to see them in a psychological thriller, Eun Bin can definitely pull of a psychotic role in my opinion, and Nam Joo Hyuk to play the detective, it’ll be a fun pairing.
SFHE: Ok, let’s not avoid the cliches, because we secretly like them, don’t we? I want to see them in the typical rich guy/poor girl trope but with more layers so it has more of a melodramatic/ mature romance aspect rather than a rom-com.

CUPID’S FAVORITE IMAGINARY PAIRING AND ITS STORY

Mavixdrama: Lu Yu Xiao and Zheng Ye Cheng 

This would be the best match for me. I'm already excited to see Zheng Ye Cheng and Lu Yu Xiao in a historical drama.

He comes to the palace to avenge the female lead‘s family and she tries to get close to him. The man known as the evil general by people eventually falls in love with the girl and throws himself to death because of her. At the last moment, he realizes that the person who killed the FL's family was not him. They are saved from the brink of death. And together, they try to find the people who really killed the girl's family. Over time, the girl also falls in love with the general.

Suckerforhappyendings:  Liu Yifei and Leo Wu 

Like I previously mentioned, I want this to be a slow and healing drama. She’s a working in the bookshop in town while also doing freelance writing and he comes back to his hometown after his parents pass away. He was a successful lawyer in the city popular for being ruthless, but the old town, its people, and most importantly the FL will melt even his coldest heart. This is a loving drama about books, snow, hot coffee, and fuzzy love that keeps you warm during the winter. 

And with that, we come to end. Thank you for reading our article that became longer than we intended it to be! We hope you enjoyed and until next time. Please let us know who your favorite match is in the comments.
