Zheng Shuang????!!
Let me tease you.
The screenwriter is by Gu Man, the lady who wrote “Love O2O” and “Boss and Me.” This Cdrama is an adaptation of her novel also titled, “You are My Glory.” I guess that means a kind soul mycan buy the book, translate it, and share the contents with us.
35 Episodes
It’s been confirmed by Tencents Pictures, so this is legit.
YangYang plays a — wait! I’ll give you four guesses:
a. video game coach
b. seal hunter
c. video game coach
d. video game coach
If you chose B. seal hunter, you should really learn to take a hint from me next time.
Here’s the synopsis according to Dramawiki.
Qiao Jingjing (actress “D”) and Yu Tu (Yang Yang!!) were high school classmates. Qiao Jingjing confessed to Yu Tu twice, but was rejected both times.
Ten years later, Qiao Jingjing becomes a top celebrity. She wants to become the endorser of a video game, but was exposed that her gaming skills are super bad. By chance, she meets Yu Tu, who is now an aerospace engineer and currently feeling lost about his career. Under Qiao Jingjing’s set-up, Yu Tu becomes her gaming coach. They slowly fall in love over time.

Okay, so I exaggerated a bit.
Yang Yang is actually an aerospace engineer who’s having a mid-life… errr… quarter-life crisis so he ends up playing video games all day.
I hope he doesn’t turn out to be one of those stereotypical gamers. You know, the type: messy, bug-eyed from lack of sleep, and with big biceps from working those tiny game controls. lol.
The poster looks dreamy.

The illustrations from the book look dreamy. I googled them and came up with these:

So who’s Yang Yang’s co-star in this upcoming Cdrama? It’s Dilraba.
Sorry, Love O2O fans. But we can still hope, right?
Update 8/19/2020
Here’s where you can read the translation of this book. Thanks for the info, @RoseJade!!!
Hi! Good English translations of this book (and other equally gorgeous stories by Gu Man) can be found in https://hui3r.wordpress.com. Lots of goodies in this site!
Oh, twist my rubber arm. I like both leads. Have they given a start date?
I just woke up and this made my day especially the ‘still waiting‘ skeleton. 😂 That will forever be us but we don’t mind because Yang Yang will always be our glorious Boyfriend! 🥰
Thanks! Can’t wait for this one and hopefully it’s as great as LOVEO2O. I like Dilraba because I’ve seen her with Deng Lun in their drama, forgot the title. 😊
Dilraba is back! And with Yang Yang! I don’t know if I’ll be able to handle the visuals for this drama-I may be blinded by the hotness. Looking forward to this drama since I like the other Gu Man adaptations. Filming supposed to start this fall, so we probably won’t see this drama until sometime next year.
No start date yet of the production.
YangYang is finishing up his current drama, but she’s free and clear to begin anytime soon.
But there seems to be some dissension among Yang Yang’s fans. While some are supportive of this drama, others are expressing their discontent because this is yet another “gaming” show. (See my multiple choice question above, lol) Dilraba went to the Tencents promotion for the drama, but it seems like Yang Yang had “prior” commitments.
So, we shall see.
The rumor as of July 29.

Wasn’t it the drama where he owned a flower shop or something? Was it “Sweet Dreams”? You recommended it to me.
🙂
That’s fine with me. There are so many Cdramas out right now, I need a bigger umbrella to shelter me from the deluge.
🙂
If you get your hands on the translation of the book, give us a shout out, okay?
Yes, Sweet Dreams. ☺️ Did you noticed I’ve mentioned Deng Lun a few times? 😆 Weh? I don’t know. 😂
I don’t mind Yang Yang in another game drama as long as his character is not the same as his other dramas except for the playing bit. 😃 From memory he has a few dramas that’s finished already but none of it is airing yet.
He’s in this variety show with my other crush, Dylan Wang. It’s with a few older and young actors so I want to know where I can watch it with subs but I have no luck. It’s fairly new that’s probably why. Anyway 😄
Sato Tekaru was in a variety show. I watched it last night and I had a belly ache from laughing. Wait a minute. I’ll just post it as is.
It’s always good to have a belly laugh 👍🏻😂
I saw some Instagram post with him and Mone? Sorry forgot Nanase’s real name. But they were in a variety show. I didn’t see any translations but it looked funny. 😄
Please put it up. Thanks 😊
I have the subs for that variety show too.
Those are the goodies I promised you but… I might not have enough time to post them.
No worries! 😉 Put it up when you can.
Oh which cdrama are you watching too? Hmm? 🤔😁
I’m finishing up the writeup now. I’m loading screenshots.
Okie thanks! 😊

Hello y’all YY lovies😁 This is my first time to make a comment here since I’be been reading various online blogs, reviews, etc. on anything YY.
I am a 67yo half-Chinese gramma, loves reading novels since middle school, likes fine arts (as in ballet, opera, classical music, etc.). Best of all, I am an avid YY fan since I saw him perform as a dancer in his teenage days. I admire everything about this fine young man. He’s got class & finesse. Best of all he knows how to separate his reel and real/pvt life. I’ve followed, watched & read everything about him since.
On is current drama, (You Are My Glory), trailers and clips being shown in YT leaves a sour taste in my mouth. They show solo scenes of him from Love O2O, some from The King’s Avatar, & from his other drama shows. There’s no originality at all. I’m so pissed with whoever’s idea this is. Of all his drama, I’m so hooked on Love O2O since it aired. To watch scenes/clips from Love O2O on a different drama title he’s on tells me that the people involved are not so creative after all. Those scenes/clips is unique to Love O2O. Why use it on his other dramas? I’m sad & upset about this.
