First Drama Stills for Period C-drama Zhao Ge Unveil Artistically Framed Colorful Visuals
I may find Chinese drama producer Yu Zheng a giant turd of a personality and his dramas all fluff with no substance, lately he’s been producing extremely pretty fluff even beyond his usual level. The first stills are out for his upcoming drama Zhao Ge, which is the name of the capital of the Shang dynasty, starring Zhang Zhe Han who worked with Yu Zheng in Demon Girl and this time paired with Wu Jia Yi. The drama has been filming in the remote Chinese province of Xinjiang and the stills capture the beauty of the location along with colors that run the entire spectrum of eye candy. The white against the grey sky and blue waters, the red in the forest of orange, the peasant girl hidden in the trunk of a giant curling tree, the drama stills are simply gorgeous and worth checking out.
Lol did Yu Zheng employ a new cinematographer in his production team? These stills are gorgeous, wow. That said the costumes still look needlessly complicated. At least there’s no blindingly bright color I guess.
So pretty.
What I love about C historical dramas is setting, setting, SETTING…The culture is rich and filming is never running short of a great variety of settings to compliment storyline. But There’s still a lot of room to improve in editing, BGM, and screenplay compared to her counterpart K drama.
As long as there is no cringy CGI to ruin this gorgeousness, it is safe!
Wow! They are gorgeous, but I want to know what’s up that Koala doesn’t like the producer. Ha.
Yu Zheng is infamous for plagiarizing the works of other dramas, novels etc
Got it. Thank you.
I must be the only person getting ‘Journey of Flower’ vibes from this picture.
