Valentine's Day Promos Round-Up
Go Go Squid! is the first breakout rom-com of the summer
The two leads are the most awkward yet adorable pair of the summer so far.
Yang Zi, Li Xian, and Hu Yitian’s Go Go Squid! is the first breakout rom-com of the year, topping both TV ratings and internet streaming charts less than two weeks after airing. The drama from Croton Media (O2O, The Boss & Me) may lack any if all logic, but the awkward cuteness and chemistry between the two leads has won over fans. Plus, the male lead’s whole team is super cute. Here are some more posters and stills.
You can watch Go Go Squid! on Youtube with English subs here.

Air date update, July 2019
Nowadays dramas can be pulled 10 minutes before airing (ahem Novoland, although that’s probably more to do with the fact that it’s a period drama), so don’t get too excited about the shows with unconfirmed dates.
