In Between

In this contemporary urban drama on Youku, several youths navigate their lives amidst the bustling cityscape. Their journeys seek to find love, meaning, and self-worth, but are often met with hurdles and setbacks. However, despite these struggles, they ultimately undergo diverse forms of growth and resolution.

Among this group of young individuals, we find He Zhi Nan, also known as Tian Xiwei, who yearns for love, and Han Su, or Zeng Mengxue, who strives for financial stability. As their emotions and rational thoughts clash, an intriguing twist unfolds. In contrast, Qu Yi Fan, or Xin Yunlai, concentrates on earning a living, while Gao Peng, represented by Zhang Zhehua, is a wealthy second-generation character seeking self-realization.

The Story of Pearl Girl

The narrative of Pearl Girl unfolds during the early Tang Dynasty, chronicling the life of Duan Wu, portrayed by Zhao Lusi, a young girl who makes a living by pearl fishing. Her ambition is to dominate the jewelry world and become the most renowned jeweler. Along her journey, she encounters various individuals who provide her with advice and aid in her personal development.

In an unexpected twist of fate, Duan Wu partners with the well-known trader, Yan Zi Jing, played by Liu Yuning, to grow her jewelry enterprise. However, Yan Zi Jing betrayes her and plots to kill her. Despite this, Duan Wu manages to evade danger and flee to Yangzhou in search of answers. Her intelligence and drive enable her not only to survive but also to build a prosperous business in Yangzhou. Along the way, she encounters the poet Zhang Jin Ran, portrayed by Tang Xiao Tian, who had previously rescued her from harm. This marks the start of Duan Wu’s fresh beginning.

The Blossoming Love

In the upcoming Youku drama “The Blossoming Love,” Human Emperor Zhao Ming, portrayed by Vin Zhang, will give up his life in an attempt to defy the divine realm. Yet, his beloved Hun Dun Zhu, played by Sun Zhen Ni, bravely jeopardizes her own life to salvage a piece of his soul. This act initiates a cycle of reincarnation that extends through all eternity.

In a later turn of events, Zhao Ming transforms into Xie Xue Chen, the head of the Immortal Alliance, while Hun Dun Zhu is reborn as Mu Xuan Ling, a sacred figure in the Dark Realm. Without knowing their past connection, these two form adversaries. However, one time, when Xie Xue Chen is injured in the Dark Realm, Mu Xuan Ling steps in to rescue him. By harnessing the power of love, Mu Xuan Ling revives him, thus restoring tranquility to the world.

Brocade Odyssey

In simple terms, “Brocade Odyssey” is a modern rendition of the Shu Brocade Family from Chinese classic literature by Zhuang Zhuanng, set during the Tang Dynasty. The drama revolves around Ji Ying Ying (played by Tan Songyun), a young woman from Huanhua Dyeing Shop, and Zhao Xiu Yuan, a prominent figure from a wealthy brocade family in Yizhou who had shared a sweet childhood romance. Unfortunately, due to family obligations, Zhao Xiu Yuan was forced to marry the daughter of an official, leaving their love unfulfilled.

In the meantime, Zheng Yecheng, the third son of the Yang clan, instantly falls for Ji Ying Ying. However, she doesn’t feel the same way. Despite this, they develop a strong friendship. During this period, the White King, who is also the prince of Nanzhao Kingdom, visits Yizhou. While there, he secretly steals Ji’s dyeing formula and kidnaps Ji Ying Ying to break the spirit of her family.
