So Love Game in Eastern Fantasy is midway through airing and is definitely a hit now, with the drama breaking 30,000 hot airing on its streaming channel Tencent. That puts it on par with the other 3 recent hit dramas on Tencent that broke 30K which are Lost You Forever with Yang Zi, The Tale of Rose with Crystal Liu, and also The Legend of Shen Li with Zhao Li Ying. Impressive company for Yu Shu Xin to join. She’s also the first post-90’s flower to have hit dramas over 10K or more hot streak in the big three streaming platforms – Love Game on Tencent, Love Between Devil and Fairy on iQiyi, and A Romance of the Little Forest on Youku. Like her, love her, or hate her, Yu Shu Xin is definitely making her mark.
Congratulation yu shuxin <33
I don't realize that i already watched the 3 drama, but i don't finish the LBDF.
I like her with Binbin and DYX. They look more mature and oozing the doting feels to her character so their cp seems cuter dan sweeter.
Her hater could only mention her voice (to each of their own) and nepo baby (with no evident that her family money helping her in any way being cast for drama).
Her personality of being playful and confidence in her own skin is refreshing. She doesn't have many drama but already making record. Hope for more success to her and her next project.
Congratulations to Yu Shuxin! Can’t wait for the release of today’s episode.
Congratulations, Esther🎉🎉🎉Many more success to you ❤❤❤
I love Love Game in Eastern Fantasy! Congrats to Esther! Her bubbliness suits her character and I’m used to her voice so it’s cute for me.
Bummer that Ep21 barely have any Ziqi and Miaomiao scenes. Argghh!!! I want my OTP!!!
Wow!! it is not easy to achieve that. Congrates!! Numbers speaks for themselves…
I’m excited for her future drama opportunities now that’s starting make a niche for herself. It’s always fun to watch her dramas and she picks good roles. Happy for her and the whole team.
Congratulations.
Now please comeback again with a serious drama. I really enjoyed watching her acting in MJTY back then. She needs to add more roles in her resume. She can do it.
Can’t wait for her modern drama with LinYi, hopefully by this winter.
That’s a very cool achievement. Good for her.
Just checking those who keeps up with ratings and read Chinese sites… So Bai Lu, Zhao Lusi, Dilraba Dilmurat never hit 30,000 mark?
They did but not to all the 3 platforms. The main point here is ‘all 3 platforms’
I see… This drama does appeal alot to the streaming target viewers.
It would be hard for someone to do that since most are tied to one platform or two. Congrats to YSX for this achievement.
The broadcast heat index is something recent 2020s i think ?, so a lot of older hits are not reflected. Also a lot of actors to guarantee certain work privileges sign subcontracts with a platform so they can’t do dramas with competing ones. I noticed if you are in iqiyi you can’t do a drama with Tencent and vice versa, but you can do dramas with Youku, they are more lax with youku since its a smaller platform. I think the first one to achieve this 3 heat index is Zhao Liying, she seems to not be tied to any platform. Dilireba i think is tied to Tencent and Bai Lu is Iqiyi ambassador so she can only do Iqiyi and Youku. I’m not sure about Zhao Lusi.
No it has been there since the late 2010s. But in the past its very difficult to reach it. Only Yanxi Palace managed to hit 10k. Big hits like Go Go Squid, Joy of Life, Princess Agents were stuck in 8000-9000+. They made it easier to do so in the recent years.
Zhao Lusi is tied to Youku and Tencent it seems. The next one to do so will probably be Yang Zi, since she hasn’t worked with iQiyi since 2019.
Is that really true? YSX is the WeTv Global Ambassador but her next drama is with IQIYI.
@Yuri thank you for the correction, so the revision is recent but this is something old. YZ next drama Flourished Peony is Mango and Family Business is Iqiyi right? She probably will get it then.
Good for FL. She is as adorable in this show as she was in LBFD. But… Personally, I can’t get enough of ML’s brooding face since Golden Age. And the secondary couple is great. Sometimes the second female lead looks like it’s her show and she is good. To think I couldn’t stand her as a stupid female villain in 10 miles Peach Blossoms! She also carries this show, it’s not just Esther.
Congrats to Esther! I think this drama works in that while Esther (Miao Miao) is the central heart and soul and the one the audience identifies with the most with her spot-on observations, the 4 main characters all feel like leads too and help carry the show. I feel like together, they’re more than the sum of their parts. Also, the drama is refreshingly written and the production took the drama seriously and invested in some great direction and effects despite it being a cute drama.
The second female lead is supposedly the female lead in the novel/game setting after all. I think the drama made a good choice in choosing Zhu Xudan for the role. I especially like how Mu Yao still retains the characteristics of a strong female lead even though she is technically the second female lead in the eyes of us viewers.
Bahahaha take that, haters. I knew she wouldn’t disappoint.
🤣 She really did well. Well Done Gal.
I’m also very happy for her success. Even magazine sales are very high! This is Esther’s year.
People who keep talking about her family’s wealth breaking news almost all chinese celebrities are from wealthy family not all but many of them plus she started from small projects playing supporting and side characters joining survival show to debut as idol then an A list actress she worked her way up , she putted effort to achieve her dream and FYI the voice that many if you complain many well respected seniors and voice actors praised for her clear diction that most young actors of her age can’t do that why she does dubbing herself cuz directors knows she does her delivery well . It’s ok if you don’t like her but stop spreading lies and hate for her cuz nobody is holding gun at you to watch her shows
Curious – what does the 30k and 10k measure exactly? Curious how these streaming platforms measure the success of a drama beyond views!
Congrats to Yu Shuxin and the cast of Love Game in Eastern Fantasy. I must say well deserved hype because personally this is the only Cdrama now that has gotten me back to watching full length Cdrama after the 2023-2022 dud for me. I would also like to give appreciation to the writers for giving the ensemble cast their justice not just giving focus on Esther but also to Ding Yuxi (Ziqi) and the other side characters. At least we know Esther is not some power/popularity hungry actress that only want to be the main focus of her dramas.
