Once Upon a Time in Lingjian Mountain is an upcoming xianxia rom-com starring Xu Kai and Zhang Rongrong as a hilarious disciple-teacher pair. The 37 episode web drama releases 2 eps every Tues-Fri on iQiyi (Eng subs on app) and Tencent.
While xianxia dramas with an older male – younger female disciples are quite common, this is the first major drama with an older female -younger male disciple.
Xu Kai and Zhang Rongrong’s xianxia drama Once Upon a Time in Lingjian Mountain (formerly There Once Was a Spirit Mountain) 从前有座灵剑山 released its first teaser. The drama is likely to air this month.
Fantasy comedy romance drama There Was Once A Spirit Sword Mountain 从前有座灵剑山 stars up-and-coming actors Xu Kai(Story of Yanxi Palace) and Zhang Rongrong(Legend of the Demon Cat) as leads.
Brighten your Monday up with a fun tune from Aarif Rahman, a cute family zoo song from Fan Weiqi, a powerful rock ballad from A-mei, songs of friendship from RTA Xu Hao X Zhu Yuanbing, Ma Haisheng and M.I.C.‘s Tan Jianci.
A-mei sets fire to the patriarchy in her epic song and MV Matriarchy 母系社會
Even though RTA youth is actually now the same age as many boyband members when they debut, somehow they all continue to look like tweens.
Boy group RTA Youth released a new MV, Classmate/Funny Honey. The MV is actually produced by 13N+ Studio, which is an eeMedia-affiliated visual production company who also does amazing stage visuals (New year concerts and Super Girls 2011) that we can look forward to seeing in this year’s Super Boys. I think they’ve really raised the visual standards for mainland production companies at lower budgets. Some of their other works include Super Girls’ Baby Sister, Su Miaoling’s Time Portrait, Wei Chen’s Moonlight, Zhang Jie’s First Lady, all of which are not super high budget but looks wonderful.
Also, SJZGloria wants to add that Zhu Yuanbing recently auditioned for Beijing Film & Central Drama. Kind of surprising since he went to the Shanghai Drama-affiliated high school.
