It’s been 5 years since period C-drama Joy of Life (Qing Yu Nian) became a huge hit and the talks immediately of sequel has turned into years but now it’s almost here. Joy of Life 2 sees leads Zhang Ruo Yan and Li Qin returning but supporting lead Xiao Zhan who has become a much bigger star since then is not back for the second go-around. The drama just got its airing permit and Tencent is slating it as potentially the biggest C-drama this year for the platform. The drama is reportedly airing May 15th and talk in C-ent is how the other streaming platforms are pulling their May dramas to avoid going head-to-head with this likely behemoth.

Keep my expectation as lower as possible. It took 5 years for the sequel and i already forget the last part of this drama lol. Should watch the last ep of s1 soon.
Btw Ms.Koala, any news of Lost You Forever s2? It will be great to have these two drama air at the same time.
Why would Tencent air there two most popular dramas at the same time? It doesn't make sense.
Ah, so they come from Tencent. I didnt know that.
Surely xiao zhan can return as special guest star?
He's one of the two actors that won't reprise his role. He's too famous to play such a minor role now.
I am going to say something sacrilegious. XZ wasn't great in that role. My unwanted 2 cents and opinion. But he has evolved, it is best for him and the drama not to come back.
iQiyi should release Fox Spirit Matchmaker, but it seems like they chickened out and will be releasing Luo Yunxi's drama instead. Youku will be releasing Wu Jinyan's drama. Think it should be an effortless win for Joy of Life. Personally am looking forward to the drama.
Season 1 started all interesting and this was one of the first few Cdramas that baited me in. But the tropes of Fan Xian going extra flirting with other supporting female characters did not sit well with me. I fast forwarded and skipped quit a chunk of those parts later on. It's a shame to the drama.
I know right. Will also skip all those parts but i do hope it wont take so long for him to be loyal to his beloved one. I didnt read the novel tho.
There is no such thing as an empower who marries only one woman. He's not destined for loyalty but for royalty. Played right, it hardly matters.
It wasn't a behemoth the first time so I don't see where the immense hype is coming from. In fact, it was arguably more popular internationally than in China.
Tencent is banking on it but if anyone thinks those 13 million reservations are real, I have a bridge to sell you.
It should do really well, great cast, should be good story but can we please have some perspective and actually wait?
Omg finally!!! Been waiting for ages. Hopefully none of those censors will put a dent in the plot. Can't wait!!
Not sure ab "head to head" thing, a lot of anticipated dramas are set to air in this May
Please 🥺 everyone, could you guys tell me what the drama is about🥺🥺🥺
Historical drama, court politics, and suspension!
So May is going to be a dry month until this finishes airing, it seems.
Can't wait!
This was hands down my favourite Chinese drama... oooh... I hope it will be epic!
Akhir yang sangat tidak relevan setelah sekian lama menunggu...
