No 2 Once Upon A Time

The online novel Once Upon A Time by Tang Qi was published in 2009. This year saw a series of adaptations of the novel, including a TV series, a film, a drama and a computer game.

The TV version premiered Jan 30 and starred two popular actresses, Yang Mi and Dilraba. It is about a fairy’s romance with a god in their three different lives.

"The scenes in the TV adaptation are beautiful, and also consistent with the original work," a Douban user Banchengyansha said.

Rated 6.4 points out of 10 on the review website, some users said the drama focused too much on romance.

"They are fairies. Can’t they do something else except falling in love?" another Douban user Amy said.
