| Upcoming Chinese Dramas for June 2025 (iQIYI/Youku/Tencent) |
To all c-drama fans, buckle up—June 2025’s shaping up to be mad packed. Whether you're here for a good slow-burn romance, an otherworldly xianxia saga, some mysteries with a twist, or historical chaos with a splash of spirit world drama, there’s a title for every craving.
Many of these dramas were supposed to land in May (or even earlier), but delays, platform shuffles, and post-prod tweaks mean we’re finally seeing them trickle into June—hopefully.
Keep your eyes on official Weibo posts, because what’s tentatively "confirmed" now might still get ghosted last minute 😅.. That said, here are the strongest contenders dropping this month:
Subject to change
1. ‘Feud’ | Bai Lu & Joseph Z Shunxi Get Entangled in Divine Chaos
 |
🗓 Premiere: June 6
-
📺 Platform: iQIYI
-
⭐ Starring: Bai Lu, Joseph Zheng Shunxi, He Ruixian
This one’s the hot topic among xianxia fans. Set in a fantasy realm where powerful immortals roam free, Feud follows Li Qing Yue (Bai Lu)—a divine being blessed by the Four Spirits—and Bai Jiu Si (Joseph Z), an honourable master from Dacheng. There’s undeniable chemistry between the two, but their connection spirals into deadly misunderstandings and tragic ends. Fate ain’t done with them though—their story doesn’t end in death. Think heartache, magic beasts, and wild reincarnation twists.
2. ‘Love’s Ambition’ | Zhao Lusi & William Chan Tackle Love Behind Closed Doors
 |
-
🗓 Tentative Premiere: June
-
📺 Platform: Tencent Video / WeTV
-
⭐ Starring: Zhao Lusi, William Chan, Wan Peng, Tang Xiao Tian
Zhao Lusi returns in a full-glam, emotionally raw marriage drama. Xu Yan (Lusi) is a beloved TV host married to Shen Hao Ming (William Chan), a respected business elite. On the outside, they’re #PowerCoupleGoals—but the reality? Far messier. As cracks appear in their perfect image, Xu Yan realises she’s been living in a facade sculpted by her husband. What follows is a raw battle of identity, love, and self-worth. Cue emotional breakdowns, rediscovery, and an actual mature second-chance arc.
3. ‘The Seven Relics of Ill Omen’ | Creatures, Killings & a Phoenix Squad
 |
-
🗓 Tentative Premiere: June 11
-
📺 Platform: Youku
-
⭐ Starring: Liu Haocun, Song Weilong, Ao Ruipeng
Ancient evil meets modern thrill. After a dog accidentally unearths a cursed relic, humanity's darkest impulses resurface. Bizarre murders start popping up, and five unlikely teens band together as the Phoenix Squad to hunt down the Seven Heart Tablets—each carrying deadly, parasitic spirits. Think supernatural meets detective drama, with a creepy folklore backbone. Gritty, a little gory, and very gripping.
4. ‘Reborn’ | Zhang Jingyi Fights for the Truth After Her Sister’s Mysterious Death
 |
-
🗓 Tentative Premiere: Early June (Hopefully)
-
📺 Platform: Tencent Video / WeTV
-
⭐ Starring: Zhang Jingyi, Zhou Yiran, Liu Dan
Coming-of-age meets family mystery in this emotionally sharp drama. Qiao Qing Yu (Zhang Jingyi) moves cities after her sister's death brings shame and speculation. Determined to clear her sister’s name, she dives headfirst into a truth that upends everything she believed. Along the way, she rebuilds broken bonds and discovers real love—with a uni acceptance and heartfelt dance sequences in the mix. It’s gentle but powerful, layered with emotional payoffs.
5. ‘A Dream Within a Dream’ | Trapped in a Script Where Tragedy Is Inevitable
 |
-
🗓 Tentative Premiere: Late June (After Feud)
-
📺 Platform: iQIYI
-
⭐ Starring: Li Yitong, Liu Yuning, Zhu Xudan
This one’s got meta written all over it. Song Xiaoyu (Li Yitong) accidentally ends up inside a fictional story—literally—and is cast as a tragic lead doomed to be abused and discarded by the villain, Nan Heng (Liu Yuning). She fights to change the plot, but the world keeps pulling her back into the original script. It’s a surreal psychological drama exploring fate, identity, and what it means to take control of your story—plus Liu Yuning in his darkest role yet.
6. ‘Moonlit Reunion’ | Ghosts, Taoists & Cross-Dressing Royals in Chang’an
 |
-
🗓 Tentative Premiere: June
-
📺 Platform: Tencent Video / WeTV
-
⭐ Starring: Xu Kai, Tian Xiwei, Wang Jiayi
Now this is one wild ride. Wu Zhen (Tian Xiwei) is royalty with a twist—cross-dressing, hanging out in brothels, and seeing ghosts since she was a kid. After a fall and a surprise encounter with the old Cat Master, she ends up inheriting mystical powers and becomes protector of Chang’an’s secret underworld. Enter Mei Zhu Yu (Xu Kai), a Taoist prodigy with his own ghost-seeing gift. Together, they navigate the chaotic realm between humans and spirits, serving looks, laughs, and lingering glances. It’s historical fantasy with a side of queer-coded banter and demon-fighting flair.
7. The Princess's Gambit
 |
The Princess’s Gambit tells the story of a royal princess who loses her status and is forced into a political marriage with a corrupt prime minister. Despite facing constant threats, she fights to survive and protect herself amidst a storm of national loyalty, personal revenge, and true love.
On the other hand, the power-hungry prime minister secretly harbours a sincere desire to serve the people and the nation.
👀 Anything Else to Watch For?
