And let’s not forget the emotional reunion clip. Zhang Linghe, looking breathless and intense, pushes through a sea of extras before his gaze locks onto Wang Churan. That lingering eye contact? Pure drama gold. You can almost feel the heartbreak and longing through the screen — no dialogue needed.
Overdo is based on If I Hadn’t Met You This Second by well-known author Fei Wo Si Cun, and the plot promises plenty of twists. Set in early 20th-century Shanghai, it follows Ren Susu (Wang Churan), an orphan who once saved Murong Qingyi (Zhang Linghe) during his lowest point.
Fast forward eight years, and she’s back — determined to uncover the truth behind her parents’ deaths, she gets close to Murong by pretending to be his lover. But when she unravels his real identity, she fakes her death and disappears. Three years later? Boom — she returns as his cousin’s fiancée. A tangled web of love, betrayal, and revenge? Sign us up.

Aside from the gripping plot, fans can’t stop gushing over the visuals. The pair have been crowned a “god-level visuals couple”, thanks to their striking looks and that 18 cm height gap which just screams romantic tension. As one netizen put it: “The BG energy is off the charts!”
Those playful and romantic moments were so convincing, fans have already started whispering that Zhang Linghe and Wang Churan might not just be acting for Overdo. With their effortless chemistry both on and off camera, rumours have started swirling that the two could actually be dating in real life. Some netizens even speculated they might have been in a relationship for a while, given how naturally they laugh and flirt with each other during filming.
Special shoutout to Wang Churan’s first cheongsam look in the drama.

Dressed in a soft yellow qipao with delicate purple floral embroidery, she absolutely stuns — the combo of her 172 cm frame and that elegant silhouette had fans saying: “She looks like she walked out of an old Shanghai poster.” Honestly, if the drama’s fashion game stays this strong, we’re in for a visual feast.
For now, these sweet snippets have only raised anticipation for Overdo even higher. When’s the official trailer dropping? Because we need it yesterday
