Youku has released trailers for some of its upcoming dramas. Personally, I’ll be following Being A Hero and The Story of Xing Fu – which ones are you looking forward to most?

Republican romance drama Fall in Love 一见倾心 stars Chen Xingxu (Goodbye My Princess) as young general, Zhang Jingyi as a noble lady recently returned from overseas and Nine Percent idol Lin Yanjun as the heroine’s childhood sweetheart.
Magazine spreads, posters and stills that recently caught our eyes.
The Best of Times 最好的时代 focuses on the rapid growth of China’s metro networks from the late 90s to early 2000s, and stars Chen Xingxu (Goodbye My Princess) and Hu Bingqing (Queen Dugu) as young engineers. Yu Haoming, Wang Xueqi costar.
Goodbye My Princess is yet another example of the typical Chinese drama that starts off as a pretty engaging show, starts falling apart in the middle, and can barely hold itself together by the time it reaches the finish line.
Melodrama Goodbye My Princess is turning out to be a very enjoyable watch for me. Peng Xiaoran is delightful as Xiaofeng, and while Chen Xingxu struggles to deliver in some of the major emotional scenes, he does a good job bringing out the more ruthless side of Li Chengyin / Gu Xiaowu.
Here’s a round-up of Lantern Festival poster/stills released for upcoming (and one currently airing) dramas. Happy Lantern Festival!
I have been addicted to the chorus of Goodbye My Princess’ theme song First Encounter ever since it made its debut in the third teaser, and now they’ve finally released the full version ahead of its premiere on Youku at 8pm (CN).
The 52 episode drama will release 1 episode every night, while members get a 4 episode head start. Happy Valentine’s Day, and happy watching!
I’m really digging Goodbye My Princess’ new trailer (and the original score), which features all the sweet romance moments between Xiaofeng (Peng Xiaoran) and Gu Xiaowu / Li Chengyin (Chen Xingxu).
Torturous melo Goodbye My Princess has released a trailer that actually shows the faces of the leads Peng Xiaoran and Chen Xingxu, who play the main protagonists Xiao-Feng and crown prince Li Chengyin (Gu Xiaowu). [Extended Synopsis]
