Coroner’s Diary hits 8500 in popularity on iQIYI – 3 pretty posters drop to celebrate

Coroners Diary 8500 heat index

The Chinese historical mystery romance drama Coroner’s Diary only premiered yesterday, and it has already reached 8,500 in popularity on iQIYI.

On iQIYI international, it is also currently rated a 9.8 out of 10 (way too high, btw), while My Drama List viewers are scoring it an average of 8.3 out of 10 so far.

In celebration of its 8,500 iQIYI popularity, the streaming service released two new and quite romantic posters featuring the C-drama’s four leads.

The first poster (see above) features Landy Li (who plays Qin Wan) and Ao Rui Peng (as Yan Chi) who are about to kiss, while the second (below) is a visual of Yu Cheng En (Prince Yan Li) and Shen Yu Jie (Princess Yue Ning) as she teases him about something.

They came with a comment from iQIYI about new episodes’ premiere time:

#Coroner’s Diary — iQiyi popularity breaks 8500#

“An autopsy to solve the mystery and find the truth, the unsolved case turns people’s hearts.”

Come to iQiyi at 18:00 (Beijing Time) every day to watch Qin Wan (@李兰迪(, Yan Chi (@敖瑞鹏’s Weibo), Yan Li (@余承恩) and Yue Ning (@沈羽洁er) as they solve cases side by side.

The two posters follow on from a pretty group poster that dropped earlier in the day as Coroner’s Diary reached 8,000 in popularity.
