New and dramatically sideways drama posters for upcoming big budget period C-drama Princess Agents has me mildly hopeful I can find a new C-drama worth watching. Can’t say I love either leads Zhao Li Ying or Lin Geng Xin but I don’t dislike either as well and have heard lots of buzz around this particular project since it was announced. Zhao Li Ying plays a slave girl in the Wei dynasty who becomes a martial arts trained agent turned general and strategist, basically a period version of a feminists dream. I quite like the black background sideways character posters, it makes me look twice and the contrast and intensity makes for a visual pop. The drama premieres in early June so I’m expecting a big summer hit with the popularity of the leading lady and the aspirational slave to leader strong female lead story line. Check out the first teaser for yourself below with English subs.
Preview for Princess Agents (English sub):
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…
If I didn't know this drama was a romance set in space and done K-drama…

Can't wait for this drama!! It's one fiction which once started couldn't put down!! I'm neither of their fan but both the leads do look good together! I believe zanilia can deliver the heroine part! And love love the male lead in the fiction;) hopefully drama is as good as the fiction!!
ah china always does amazing period dramas!
Zhao Li Ying doesn't like bad at all. She kinda can pull off the heroin character. I like it!!
been waiting for this like forever. i love liying baby!!!
I have been waiting for this for a long time. The trailer looks great. I also saw a bts clip of how they filmed the actions scenes and the actors were doing a lot of their stunts. Really impressed with ZLY doing her own stunts, but I could be biased bc I adore her. I hope this drama delivers. It has a strong cast and China knows how to do historical dramas.
I can't wait for this! I love Zhao Liying and I love Li Qin. I can't wait to see them playing such unique characters. Hopefully, this drama will live up to the hype.
I really love Zanilia, she is a hard working actress who puts everything in her acting. I saw the trailer and I am excited.
supporting Zhao Liying from US. Love that she has an Electronic Information Engineer background and top of that 11 years hard working actress. Princess Agents needs to deliver her to the top.
Wow! Love that trailer.
Captain K, do u happen to know whether this drama is adapted from novel, Queen No 11 Agent 11, But minus the time travel elements? Just wondering on this as the setup of main character being the slaves, the arrow, and YanXun are the same as per novel (IMO..)

On another note, do u know when Oh My General would be premiered?
Cheers!
According to the drama's Baidu page, Princess Agents is an adaptation of that novel, but with some elements changed. As for Oh My General, it's said to air during the summer (June or July) of this year, but no official air date has been released.
Does the novel mention anything about Yuan Chun princess of Wei? What happens to her in the novel? Also, is her character the same in the drama?
I'm so excited for this drama!! Everything looks like it's going to be fantastic!!
