The upcoming C-drama Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty (唐宫奇案之青雾风鸣) has now confirmed both the female lead Bai Lu and a day later male lead Wang Xing Yue. Filming will start soon and more info is coming out and a big industry chatter is on the plot. Apparently the drama plot is male lead centric (so-called Big Male Lead) type of story and the drama is intended as a vehicle for Wang Xing Yue over Bai Lu in order to cement his breakout from The Double into making him firmly a top male lead. Bai Lu’s fan are furious learning this on top of them not happy she’s doing another period drama to begin with since she’s pigeonholed for awhile now in the genre. She still has another year left on her contract with Yu Zheng and I hope she leaves him so she has the freedom to accept/reject her own projects.
