17 Generation to Generation character posters released as C-drama gets 22 February premiere

I will preface this by asking why is it that Chinese production companies, when faced with choosing an English title, choose the blandest, most unmemorable possible?

Case in point, the new wuxia romance drama Generation to Generation, which started out life with the much more romantic sounding A Decade of Nightscape Lights, before ending up with that bland title.

But, here we are whether we like it or not, eh? So, I’ll get on with the news story…

Generation to Generation gets character posters for almost every main/supporting actor

Zhou Yi Ran and Bao Shang En’s new wuxia romance Generation to Generation got its official premiere date today, with Tencent Video announcing the Chinese drama would be dropping on February 22nd.

The announcement came with a slew of epic-looking character posters for the main and supporting characters, a confirmation of the drama’s cast, and a message saying:
