Youthful Glory’s Power Couple: Song Weilong and Bao Shangen Spill Sweet Behind-the-Scenes Moments

Youthful Glory is the newest C-drama sensation, and its leads Song Weilong and Bao Shangen are stealing hearts faster than you can say “arranged marriage with benefits.” Since premiering just ten days ago, the historical idol drama has already smashed 300 million views, hit the trending charts across Asia, and landed a spot on Netflix Taiwan and LINE TV. Globally, fans are also tuning in via Mango TV, iQiyi, and Viki — and no wonder, the romance is that addictive.

Riding the current wave of popularity, the drama has surged to the second spot in mainland’s most-watched rankings, hot on the heels of The Prisoner of Beauty (starring Liu Yuning and Song Zuer), and even clinched No.1 for a few days. But beyond the stats, what’s really got fans hooked is the crackling chemistry between its two leads — and they’ve now opened up about their most unforgettable moments from filming, giving us even more reason to swoon.

💥 A Love That Starts With Fireworks (Literally)

In Youthful Glory, Song Weilong plays Jiang Xu, the cold yet secretly soft general-turned-prince who’s all about strategy — until he gets tangled in a political marriage with Ming Tan, the strong-willed daughter of another high-ranking general, played by Bao Shangen. Cue misunderstandings, slow-burn flirting, and a marriage contract that bans physical intimacy. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t last long.

One of the biggest buzz scenes? That steamy bath scene, where Jiang Xu suddenly turns the teasing all the way up. In a now-viral moment, he gently pushes Ming Tan onto the bed and cheekily says, “Even though I’ve never been interested in women before, when it comes to husband-and-wife matters, everything is perfectly normal.” 

He even fakes undressing, leaving her flustered and viewers absolutely feral. It’s giving soft dominance, it’s giving forbidden romance, and yes, it’s giving major leading man energy.

Song Weilong shared with Upmedia that the most defining moment for his character wasn’t the bath tease, but rather when Ming Tan lit fireworks just for him. 

“That was the moment Jiang Xu truly started loving her,” he said, revealing the softer emotional core of the drama beneath all the scheming and seduction.

As for Bao Shangen? She couldn’t forget the hair-washing scene. “It was so intimate and gentle,” she shared, praising Song Weilong for always being mindful of her comfort. “He’s really thoughtful — always checking if I’m okay with the scene. Super gentlemanly!”

Off-screen, their chemistry is just as charming — but in a totally different, much sillier flavour. Turns out, the set of Youthful Glory doubled as a mini variety show thanks to their banter. 

Bao Shangen called Song Weilong “a total elementary schooler,” saying he’d pull up clips of her older projects and cheekily ask, “Am I handsome here? Do I look cool?”

Not one to be outdone, Song Weilong clapped back with, “She’s an elementary school kid too!” With all the teasing, singing, and their cutesy nicknames “Longlong” and “Baobao,” it’s no wonder fans are shipping them hard — even outside the drama.

🌟 Drama Couple of the Year?

Whether it’s sizzling tension or soft romance, Song Weilong and Bao Shangen deliver the goods. Their performances have been praised as magnetic, natural, and refreshingly full of heart — a combo that’s getting harder to find in idol dramas these days. And with their off-screen friendship adding an extra layer of charm, audiences are already begging for a reunion project.

Until then, Youthful Glory is still streaming, and the Longlong x Baobao wave shows no signs of slowing down. If you haven’t tuned in yet — what are you waiting for?
