Period C-drama The Days of Seclusion and Love Lowers Budget as it Finalizes Cast of Deng Wei, Rising Actress Vanda Margraf, and Second Male Lead Wang You Shuo
C-actor Deng Wei is finally going back to the filming set after a year and a half not having an actively filming project. His next role will be the male lead of period C-drama The Days of Seclusion and Love, and if that title sounds familiar its because the project has been in works for over two years and has had many different lead actors and actresses connected to it at various points. Production is slated to begin next month in May 2025 so this is likely the final casting. Deng Wei has been rumored to be the male lead for many months now but his female lead has once again changed. It most recently was Li Qin but has now changed to rising young actress Vanda Margref, she’s of the Dai ethnic minority in Yunnan and has that mixed visual beauty in the same vein as Dilraba Dilmurat and Guli Nazha. The second male lead has also been revealed and it will be Wang You Shuo. The production budget after these latest casting changes has been dropped from S to A budget and will be filmed accordingly.
I like second lead… good to see him again.
I like how Vanda looks It will be my first time watching her in a drama. This pairing looks quite exotic together Hope they will have CP feeling in the drama.
Wang You Shuo deserves to play better than second lead in this. SMH
Honestly I can’t wait for his big break. Him and Hou Ming Hao get tons of flack for their faces etc. but I DO NOT CARE. Ever since I saw WYS for the first time in that cringe drama Blooms of Pavillion, I was in awe.
I want WYS to get his big break since he’s pretty solid, but not the kind of traffic-actor fame that can box you in.
Going from Li Qin to a newbie is quite a leap.
Anyways, best wishes to all the actors for this drama!
Flack for his face??? WYS is handsome and a scene stealer. I too wish he’d get a breakout role.
I don’t even know the guy tbh (second male lead) but glad to know he’s a strong support acting-wise?!
As for the FL, she’s very pretty and hope will match well with Deng Wei.
I like Deng Wei now. Lol. I guess he was doing a good job at acting in “Lost You Forever” because he had me super convinced he was just a smiley, dopey, lovesick puppy. In “Love of the Divine Tree”, he actually had strong presence in his performance, so yay.
he was also a smiley dopey lovesick puppy on Lost You Forever that slept and got lost a lot.
whatever happens to my dream pairing liu yuning and tian xiweiðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
This article is a completely false information. This is a S+ big product of AINI Pictures and iQIYI entertainment. The cast are exceptional. The director is a two times Hong Kong Film Awards winning director as well as one of the female leading role Hui Ying Hong. Deng Wei has big popularity in China and Asia now, one of the most promising star in Cdrama. Love of the Divine Tree was released in 2025. The drama won Deng Wei wide acclaim and so many more fans globally. The female leading actress is new, but they look beautiful together. Lin Qin looks too old to play such a young lady. Never heard of the actor for the second male leading role. However, I am very much looking forward to this new drama of Deng Wei. Hevalways transformed his roles into touching, attractive characters, no mention he is so handsome.
