She liked/commented on his IG post again! lol it's so cute.

next drama 🍉: Mango's 红尘四合 Love in Red Dust. About a deaf prince and his crossdressing bodyguard. Director: Chu Yuibun (Story of Kunning Palace), writer: Qin Wen (Blossoms Shanghai). (EDIT) a more accurate melon owner says the FL is Wang Yuwen.

He was rumored for this as early as June last year but Yu Zheng chose Tang Palace instead so it went to other actors but now, it's circled back to him again. Shooting might start late April.

sure, can't find the original xhs post anymore so this screenshot is from the douban Perfect Match drama group:

Perfect Match finished airing on Hunan Satellite TV yesterday and here are the ratings from Kuyun:

Total Average Viewership - 0.2522%
Highest Episode Average - 0.4511% (Episode 5)
Highest Peak Value (seconds) - 0.6498% (Episode 20/21)

yes but I'm trying to say is that they're really complaining about the quality of screentime, where they're not just background boards for other characters. based on that table, here's the percentage of each actor's screentime devoted to their own character's growth or storyline:

Liang Yongqi (total 270m) - 87%
Dong Sicheng (total 256m) - 86%
Chen Heyi (total 321m) - 69%
Wang Xingyue (total 337m) - 54%

the sisters have worse scores because they're in more scenes:

Lu Yuxiao (total 377m) - 48%
Liu Xiening (total 456m) - 48%
Huangyang Tiantian (total 498m) - 44%

(Wu Xuanyi, Huang Shengchi, and Ke Ying were not included because they did not have Mango/fan data.)

because someone made a table based on the time spent on each couple's story (no scenes where they're just in the background or revolving around the other couples):

haode x shen huizhao = 234 minutes
shohua x du yangxi = 220 minutes
le shan x yang xian = 219 minutes
kangning x chai an = 182 minutes

I believe this was based on Mango's actor data (you can click on an actor's name during an episode and it'll tell you how many minutes they're in it) plus individual actor fan's released "scenepacks."

technically yes but I think they only started counting in 2020 haha

Edit to add the Top 10:
1. Flourished Peony (2025) - 41M
2. Romance in the Alley (2024) - 31M
3. Only for Love (2023) - 27M
4. Fireworks of My Heart (2023) - 25M
5. Perfect Match (2025) - 22M estimate
6. Meet Yourself (2023) - 21M
7. Find Yourself (2020) - 19M
8. Go Ahead (2020) - 17M
9. You Are My Secret (2024) - 13M
10. Warm and Sweet (2023) - 11M

Some good news: Perfect Match is now #5 on Mango's Top Dramas with Yunhe data (probably staying there because it's hard to beat #4.) For Kuyun's list, it's in 4th place now with a chance to get to #3 if the long tail remains stable. The Douban score also increased to 5.9 (with 42k ratings.) And there'll be a celebration party on March 12!

(so far he's the only Chinese actor she has followed on instagram.)

54 幻想即興发布了一篇小红书笔记，快来看吧！ 😆 m8uw4uQ12zAiZLM 😆 http://xhslink.com/a/ECfPnfo8vR35，复制本条信息，打开【小红书】App查看精彩内容！

thanks for the clarification, the description in the script: "...the other was a pretty girl (Pei Yi), wearing a red wedding dress and brightly made-up on her pale face." that's why I mentioned that she's the bride but it could be just a case because the page is cut off after that.

the leaked script begins with a ghost wedding. LPY is the bride but I could only see the first page (the poster was selling it) so not sure if it's just for a case (but it seems to be.)

Datawin just published a very complimentary article on WXY's career so far. You can use google translate to read:

Yunhe estimates are in: PM reaches 40M playback for the first time!! and the average is currently 15M. It now has a chance to reach 20M-25M by the end of the hot broadcast period and if it does, it'll end up in Mango's Top 5 dramas (it's now at #8.)

data tracking spreadsheet in case anyone's interested: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1H95bp0oViorM4YF2LAa97qxUm-4sSPTlKNXsugAazp0/edit?usp=sharing

To be fair, it's also because all the other new dramas failed to gather an audience (the only rival right now is Six Sisters which is predicted to return to the top after tomorrow unless this last arc of PM really explodes.)

Yu Zheng is mocked but he does have a silent audience (PM viewers data is 65% older and surprisingly, 35% male so they're not on social media much) but I've seen a boom of posts about the 5th sister on Douban now so the discussions might get noisier.

Perfect Match just broke Mango's record of most times a show has reached #1 on Yunhe (9 days, previous record holder was Romance in the Alley with 8 days.) It is predicted to retain the top spot tomorrow as express episodes are being released tonight. Congratulations!

cnetz don't seem to count it as one. maybe it's low in the luxury tier? or because luxury clothing/jewelry/accessory endorsement titles are harder to get? I'm not sure.

I don't know chinese, I just use google translate. but if you want pictures for your fanpage, you might need weibo. or the thai wxy fans seem to be up to date too, they have a twitter account.

Great! I don't have facebook but I can post news that I see here.

WXY bagged his first luxury endorsement, brand ambassador of Chopard Glasses! official announcement on February 12.
