So I thought this C-drama was on ice due to the difficulty of casting a bevy of male leads opposite Dilraba Dilmurat that she can take revenge on because each guy is a cheating asshole as she time and world hops around. The drama is titled 万花世界 (Wan Hua Shi Jie or Hundred Flower World) and is adapted from a manhwa and last year confirmed the drama adaptation and the female lead but the first go-around of potential male leads included Dylan Wang, Zhang Ling He, Lin Yi, Aou Rui Peng and many more for the cast. It then went on casting discussion hiatus as Dilraba filmed Love on the Turquoise Land with Chen Xing Xu and next month she’s off to film Love Beyond the Grave with Chen Fei Yu, so I was not expecting any word on this drama. And yet here it is, a new melon that the drama remains in development with an eye towards filming at the end of the year and the male leads in talks are Hou Ming Hao, Wang Xing Yue, Cheng Lei, and Tian Jia Rui. That’s a whole lotta pretty boy preening to come lol.

If this pans out, that is a WHOLE LOT OF pretty on one screen..even more than My Journey to You
Hou Ming Hao and Wang Xing Yue look fine but Cheng Lei and Tian Jia Rui are fug especially if they’re gon pair with Reba
If they’re cast (Cheng Lei and Tian Jia Rui), there will be at least someone who will do the acting…
Did you just say Cheng lei is ugly? Mmm don’t think so. He is fairly handsome and tian jia rui is odd looking I guess due to his eyes looking beady and face oddly shaped but don’t know if I would say he is ugly maybe not so male lead material face. Everyone listed has a quirky face that may or may not appeal to others but they can somehow act but who is to say if any of this is true anyways. For all we know this may change because of the doomed billing messes that come with this.
@panda There is no way that those two are better actors than Hou Ming Hao no matter how they look,dont be a fool
The guys act miles better than Dilraba who is an awful actress.
WXY is the only who have more work proving he is a good actor and can become much better if he wish to be.
@Merry You misunderstood. I wasn’t shading Neo here, I was talking about our heroine. The four actors would act circles around her. Wang Xing Yue being the one with most potential imo.
@panda Sorry if it’s ur bea but WXY is literally the worst in that group in terms of acting LOL, with his stiff and wood acting, Neo Hou since he is the most veteran/popular actor probably will get the first billing as ML and the most screen time in the drama otherwise his team will never accept the offer, but I dont think he will take this role anyway even with Dilraba as FL.
@Merry you are a IGNORANT, lol. You are proving that you don’t know ANYTHING about acting when you think Zhou Ye and Gong Jun are GOOD actors. Don’t be a FOOL, like you say.
Well, i rather they use different male lead in every arc.
It interesting if they scoot new talent for every MLs, there thousand rookie actor out there and i believe there will be a diamond (someone with decent acting and look).
They kinda all look the same to me lols
These pictures chosen to be in the article make you see them as twins but when you go to research each one, they’re all very different.
Some of these guys act miles better than Dilraba.
The agency of each one is probably thinking, arguing and listing all the pros and cons that comes with working with Dilraba.
Why is casting an issue for this show when there were 4 male leads in Tale of Rose, 3 of which are very popular and established? They were given special lead status, I guess. I think this whole billing thing has become a thorn for the younger generation of actors.
Maybe not so much billing but scheduling? Up and coming young actors are likely booking back to back projects to exploit the momentum they have. Otherwise you might have a case like Ding Yuxi who has received backlash for filming multiple shows simultaneously.
Ah you can be criticized for that? Did he cause a production delay or did bad in acting? Cause I think in korea shooting multiple work at the same time is to be proud of
Is supposed to be another lost you forever drama LOL
I’m not sure I want to watch a loop of pretty cheating men being punished by an FL.
Same here. Besides, the FL hasn’t proven to be an apt actress worth that much flattery though. LOL.
My vote goes to Cheng Lei, he’s the better actor and would totally slay it as a cheating scumbag (in the sense that he’s a good actor, I am not implying anything about the guy).
Hopefully WXY isn’t in this. I don’t want to see him as a cheater.
I hope he has a good sense to turn it down. His career is just taking off thanks to The Double. Don’t let a poor actress to jinx it. LOL.
I know we’re not taking nominations here, but I nominate Liang Yongqi. Guy was amazing in The Double as the cheating husband that betrayed his perfect wife.
Yup!
The plot sounds pretty boring. I’m not interested in any male version of harem story. Lost You Forever failed me. This one would be even worse given that Reba can’t act like Yang Zi.
WXY PLZ stay out of this drama!!! Want to test your acting chops? Wait until you’re at 30s to be a cheating man, not when you just grabbed the hearts of many C girls at this moment. Cheating man label will definitely ruin your popularity regardless of how good your acting is. LOL
They will use 8 stories/arc out of 16. So each male lead has their own story. And the male lead in those stories are not the one who cheated on her,they are the one who had a happy ending with her.
So they are not pairing ewith Dilraba?
I’m not fiding many informations about the story, so its too confuse. Hope those actor play the role of good boys.
They will be the ML but as I said they are not the one who cheated on her. There is a translated comic type online that you can read and one in YouTube but the title is different. All I can remember is it has Phoenix in it.
They will be the ML if the melon is true. But they are not the cheaters. The ML end up with Reba, the cheaters had small part in the story. There’s a translated version of manwah online and YouTube but the I forgot the title, it has Phoenix in it
