Tong Yao and her studio have announced that The Miracles (奇迹) will premiere on December 22, 2025. If I understand the announcement correctly, the short episode she stars in alongside Chen Xiao will be among the first batch to air. New images have also been released, and we now have the official English title for this short episode: The Keyboard of Dreams (城的琴).
Well, this is interesting!! It looks like the Nothing But Thirty sequel, which Tong Yao had previously confirmed was going to start production in 2026 (if nothing else changes), has now received further, official confirmation. This is slated to be a co-production with Singapore's Mediacorp and is currently titled Only Thirty-Five. This is awesome news for Singapore fans, since it's likely that Tong Yao will shoot some scenes here. At least, that is what I hope.
AMENDED 6th Nov
The official Weibo account for Si Xi has announced that the series is slated to begin airing on November 7th. The various stars of the series have also shared new promo photos and accompanying messages in support of the release.
After finishing Footprints of Change (足迹), I found myself so engrossed that what began as a simple review quickly morphed into a detailed commentary. Three weeks later, I decided to pause and reframe my thoughts into a more condensed response to the series.
Although it’s no longer a big secret, Ball Lightning, the drama series adaptation of Liu Cixin’s novel, has never officially announced its cast till today.
As part of a larger iQiyi drama showcase announcement, the official Weibo channel (along with the cast members) released the official poster and introduced their characters for the first time.
While looking around for information about Encounter with You (转身遇到你), I realized there's very little available in English, and some of the Chinese information about this drama also seems to be incorrect. I hope to fill that gap, ensuring international fans have a more accurate picture so they can decide if they want to invest time into this series.
