Parallel World

Ji Shu (Zhu Zheng Ting) is a young writer of popular novels. His books are a hit among their many fans, but Ji Shu is blighted by emotional apathy and pessimism writer. His novels ultimately reflect this bleak outlook, and almost universally end in tragedy. In many ways, he is the quintessential BE (bad ending) writer. By contrast, Song Yan Qi (Lu Yu Xiao), is an optimistic film and drama series planner. She loves happy ending (HE) stories.

Song Yan Qi would like to adapt a Ji Shu novel for the screen, but would ideally like to ensure the story ends happily – something Ji Shu cannot accept. But the duo’s lives are thrown into chaos when they are sucked into the world of the novel. As they begin to “live” the lives of Ji Shu’s characters, they begin to “rewrite” the story – and become drawn to one another. But will their own love stories end in joy – or sadness?

To Ship Someone

Happy Sad Ending

Lin Xi (Lu Yu Xiao) and Ji Jun Xing (Wu Jun Ting) are school classmates – and although their personalities are very different, they find themselves drawn together. The horror movie-loving Lin Xi is outwardly tough, but positive, clever, somewhat stubborn, and full of joy. She is also a lover of justice – and always does her best to stand up to bullies who pick on weaker schoolmates. Ji Jun Xing, meanwhile, appears to be cold, frank, and introverted. Computer programming is his forte. But while he seems very aloof and standoffish to those who don’t know him well, he is actually full of warmth – and just doesn’t really know how to express his emotions.

As the end of their high school days approaches, they must prepare to take their college entry examinations – knowing that failing to achieve the grades they need could set them back a year. And that could mean that they would be separated – with one in the academic year above the other. As they attempt to make their dreams of college life come true, romance could well spark between them. But will fate ultimately bring them together – or tear them apart?

This drama series was based on an online novel by Jiang Mu Tong.
