Our Generation: Cast, plot & more
Directed by Zhang Kai Zhou from the script by Zeng Lu, Our Generation follows the story of Lin Qi Le (Zhao Jinmai), a bubbly and cheerful girl who is affectionately called Cherry by her loved ones. Aside from growing up in a small town surrounded by mountains, she seems to be lucky to have loving parents and supporting friends. Qi Le loves nature, and there appears to be no problem with her pleasant life.
However, when she was nine years old, she met someone who was, in every way, different from her. Jiang Qiao Xi (Zhang Linghe), a boy of her age, transfers to her school from the provincial capital. Jiang Qiao Xi is gloomy and introverted, and he seems to have a problem with everything around him. A math prodigy, he seemingly exudes a charming aura. However, amid all this, he chooses to be reserved and is unhappy.
To top it off, his family appears to be elitist and superior. Jiang Qiao Xi’s life is cold and pale, resembling the cold snow on the mountain surrounding the small town. But his dull and grey life suddenly sees colors when he forms a friendship with warmhearted Qi Le.
Aside from Zhao Jinmai and Zhang Lighe, the drama production has yet to reveal more details about its cast. Furthermore, the exact release date and broadcasting schedule of the 24-episode series have yet to be announced.
