This drama Wan Hua Sin has been in development hell for three years starting with Dilraba Dilmurat and popular male leads and now ending with confirmed female lead Ju Jing Yi and a bevy of mostly unknown or rising male leads.

I don’t even know how to pick between these two female leads, and not in any good way. Might as well flip a coin between over-acting and perennially posing.
