It’s going to be a roaring start to a year of luck and good fortune as WeTV joins everyone in ushering in the year of the Water Tiger. To set things off to an auspicious start, here are binge-watch worthy Chinese dramas to check out, streaming only on WeTV.
City Of Streamer (Two new episodes every Thursday to Saturday at 8:00 pm on WeTV VIP, one new episode every Monday to Saturday at 8:00 pm on WeTV FREE) finds itself set in Shanghai at the beginning of the 20th century. Warlords are seizing power where they could. One of them is the Rong family, who use their wealth and influence to cover up heinous crimes. In the middle of it, heroes emerge and revolutionary movements are stirring. Feng Shizhen is among those who embark on a quest for justice and revenge. She takes a position as tutor to the young master Rong Jiashang. When they fall in love, the star-crossed lovers are forced to face the most difficult truths as they fight to stay together. City Of Streamer stars Jing Tian, Xu Weizhou, Chao Jing, Karina Hai, Keanu Chi and Faye Wang.
For those in the mood for romantic dramas with a touch of the supernatural, WeTV serves up Love At First Taste (All episodes available on WeTV VIP, two new episodes every Wednesday to Friday at 7:00 pm on WeTV FREE). Zhang Feifei plays Ou Zeye, a half-human and half vampire businessman, and Pan Yuetong plays Tong Xiaoman, a college student majoring in drama. The two are mysteriously drawn to each other, embarking on a road towards forbidden love. Will they be able to surpass the challenges of coming from two different worlds and find happiness? They say love can be transcend time and space. The Chinese love story Love You To Another Star (All episodes available on WeTV VIP, four new episodes every Thursday and Friday at 7:00 pm on WeTV FREE) starring Ma Haodong, Zhao Jingyi, and Zhang Yameng truly delivers on this plotline. Xing Xing is a young shop owner with a bright personality. When she is abducted by TianTing Xing, she finds herself in a secretive Celestial Star sect that has been in existence for over 5,000 years. As she learns more about the Celestial Stars, she not only learns an unexpected truth about herself but also falls in love with Yu Tianqi, the alien prince. As forces fight against them, XingXing and Tianqi cling to each other for the sake of love and happiness.
When it comes to love, timing can be everything, at least according to Hello, The Sharpshooter (Eight episodes available on WeTV VIP on February 2 with two new episodes every Wednesday to Friday at 8:00 pm, first two episodes available on February 2 on WeTV FREE with one new episode every Wednesday to Sunday at 8:00 pm). Xing Fei stars as Tang Xin, a reporter-in-training sent to interview the Chinese national pistol-shooting team headed for the Olympics. First on her list is Yuan Shen Qing (Hu Yi Tian), an old flame from high school. What Tang Xin did not expect was how cold and dismissive he would be towards her. What she didn’t know was how her presence was affecting Yuan Shen Qing’s on the field. The longer she’s around, the more feelings she is waking up in him. Could Olympic gold come with a side of love this time around? The series is directed by Liu Yi Zhi. WeTV Brand Ambassador Yang Mi and Xu Kai (of Falling Into Your Smile Fame) deliver on all the drama and the romance in their latest series She And Her Perfect Husband. Slated to premiere on WeTV VIP and WeTV FREE in early February, the story revolves around the ambitious young lawyer Qin Shi who joins a firm who favors married lawyers. She gets in because her brother changes her status to “married” in her application. Before she can reveal her lie, her “husband” Yang Hua makes an appearance. Will this all this make believe eventually lead to true love? Enter the year of the Water Tiger with a stroll under the WeTV Lantern of Wishes Bridgeway at Lucky Chinatown. Be sure to stop for a quick photo, and send out your hopes for good luck and good fortune in 2022.
