Introduction to ‘Our Generation’
The newest collaboration between Zhao Jinmai and Zhang Linghe, titled “Our Generation” (樱桃琥珀), has recently dropped its first posters, creating immense anticipation among fans. The modern drama, produced by Youku and helmed by the renowned Daylight Entertainment, promises to be a stellar production that appeals to both viewers and critics alike.
A Reunion Worth Noting
Zhao Jinmai and Zhang Linghe reunite for their second drama after their successful collaboration in ‘The Princess Royal.’ Their first on-screen pairing showcased an incredible chemistry, accentuated by their noticeable height difference, charming interactions, and youthful energy—Zhao Jinmai aged 21 and Zhang Linghe aged 26. Given their prior success, it comes as no surprise that they were cast together again in this new modern setting.
The Team Behind ‘Our Generation’
The series benefits from a strong production team with Zhang Kaizhou directing and Hou Hongliang producing, both of whom are celebrated for their work on hits like ‘The Story of Minglan.’ The drama is based on the novel ‘Oceans of Time’ by Yun Zhu (云住), and its compelling storyline is expected to captivate audiences.
Plot and Characters
The storyline follows two individuals who meet in their youth. Zhao Jinmai’s character, Lin Qile, is sunny and cheerful, earning her the nickname ‘Yingtao’ (cherry in English), a nod to the title. Zhang Linghe plays Jiang Qiaoxi, a quiet genius. A misunderstanding separates them, but they reunite years later under different circumstances. Fans are eagerly anticipating the onscreen dynamic between Zhao Jinmai’s lively persona and Zhang Linghe’s intellectual demeanor.
