Finally! It’s like the whole world knew ss and Liu are leads for this drama except mdl

You did it!

It’s said there will be no fantasy drama to air in Sept and Oct and will only air propaganda type themed dramas

There’s a chance this drama my air on CCTV8. It’s on the list

"Dali and Xiao Mi" is a recent controversy on the Internet caused by the naming of characters in the TV series "Xiao Yao". The drama is starred by Tan Songyun and Hou Minghao. The supporting character "Dali" is set as a "narcissistic and inferior girl" flower demon, and "Xiao Mi" is a "tsundere and poisonous" cat demon who shares a body with "Xiao Ming". Because "Dali" and "Xiao Mi" are considered by some netizens to be allusions to actresses Zhao Liying (nicknamed "Li") and Yang Mi (nicknamed "Mi"), especially the comparison between "big" and "small", fans of both sides have started arguing about their status and achievements….. this is the most stupidest thing. Netizen find the most smallest thing and associated with anything to make it news

Yea, I saw on xhs hunan posted a lot of other celebs, that's lame. Also what's kpi

Like I said, I'm trying to gaslight myself

he does a good job of it, can't deny or fault that. It creates noise.

Guys, we are all disappointed with no trailer, but think of the big picture! It's this director's first time directing fantasy, and ss's first time doing fantasy, and an original script. So, perhaps they want to keep it mysterious and to not spoil everything. Perhaps one scene could spoil the fun of all? I'm trying to gaslight myself here and hope it's working for others.

Also, that's quick for mdl to change the correct and updated english name, so props for that at least.

I really have no idea, and then later i see they did it for xk also.

I don't hate it, it kind of seems fitting since I think their souls or something travel in time? But, I wouldn't mind The Legend of Xiao Yao, just bc it fits the chinese name

Yes, I actually liked XY because it was the female lead name. This new English is not too bad, but I don’t know how it relates to the drama

Hunan posted 20 posts consecutively of ss. And they made a hashtag too haha.

There is like an extremely short video of xy for her one costume fitting photoshoot. While hmh has like 4-5costumes. But it’s better than nothing

I’m sooo annoyed. During iqiyi conference, cy’s drama had an MV so it was over 2mins long for the presentation. Bailu and Joseph even had both actors present and yuzheng there to promote, and there’s xy with the presenter fumbling with her 26 sec intro for the presentation. Ugh 😑

I’m quite annoyed of ss’ studio. Even hmh’s Studio posted more individual posters, and a photo shoot video of his Dressing but ss’ Studio did not post anything

Omg so stingy. Even the poster is stingy

I’m so jealous and super duper annoyed. Most iqiyi dramas and other platforms have released their mvs. Also the poster is lackluster. I was hoping for something more, and their individual posters is just a zoom in poster of the group poster 😭

I feel like it may be because it's suppose to air on tv (cctv?). They are finding a tv slot, so perhaps will have mass promotion then? I believe tsy's drama, fly to you, was similar. It was very secretive, and only started releasing promo near airing date. tsy's tv dramas always does well, so I'm not worried about this one.

Your comment did come off as rude (which I'm sure you were just curious and really wanted answers). It's the internet, and we are missing facial expressions and tone of voice so it's all about perception. I would've worded your questions differently. Fans can get defensive because they are protective of their own idol. Sometimes, when I'm curious of other celebrities, I try to make it known I'm really just curious and I meant no harm, and usually other fans are nice to explain. But I am curiour as to how you found out about TSY? Did you watch a drama of hers or saw she was affiliated with another actor/actress?

You may not know tsy (Tan Song Yun), and wonder who is this girl? Not being racist or anything, but especially since you are of white background and probably don't have access to chinese apps or know how to read Chinese. A way for Chinese celebs to gain popularity and spot light is to join reality and variety shows. That almost always works out, however tsy almost never joins reality or variety shows. She has slight social anxiety, and it's her own rule that she will only appear in an ep or two of these shows if there's someone she's familiar that's also either a permanent member or also a guest on the show, and show only appears just to promote her drama. She's also very low key, her life revolves in acting (work), rest and travel and being with her family. Once she finishes filming a drama she goes MIA and resurfaces when needed (usually to promote her drama or to start filming another). She's also known not to do cp hype, so that also lessens exposure.

She has this many flowers bc viewers and passerbys acknowledge her acting skills. We know public like her and her dramas have great result because none of her dramas are shelved. Her drama typically gets aired within a year after completion of filming, and she has at least 1-2 dramas aired.
