Executive produced by Yu Zheng (Story of Yanxi Palace, Beauty's Rival in Palace, Female Prime Minister) and directed by Yang Huan (Lost You Forever), Perfect Match is an endearing period drama produced by Huanyu Entertainment, set to debut exclusively and globally on Netflix. Starring Lu Yu-xiao, Wang Xing-yue, Ni Hong-jie, Liu Xie-ning, Dong Si-cheng and more, the series presents a heartwarming and lighthearted story filled with clever dialogues and contemporary takes on romantic and familial relationships.
The story follows the five beautiful daughters of the Li family, whose vivacious nature, inherited from their mother, Madame Li, earned them the notorious nickname "The Six Tigers of the Li Family." Realizing her daughters remain unmarried in their hometown of Luo-yang, Madame Li decides to move the family to Bianjing to find each of her daughters a compatible match. In the new city, the six women juggle starting a teahouse business while searching for spouses, encountering comedic twists and heartfelt moments along the way.
Set during the reign of Renzong in the Northern Song Dynasty, Madame Li (Ni Hong-jie) is a wealthy matriarch from Luo-yang who prides herself on her five beautiful daughters. Her eldest, Shou-hua (Liu Xie-ning), is a young, dutiful widow disinterested in remarriage. Kang-ning (Lu Yu-xiao), the third daughter, is independent and strong-willed, earning the nickname "The Rogue Tiger." The fourth daughter, Hao-de (Ke Ying) is brutally honest, while the youngest, Le-shan (Huang Yang Tian-tian) is naive, impulsive, and the most spirited in the family.
The second daughter, Fu-hui (Wu Xuan-yi), is the only one married, having wed into a wealthy family in Bianjing. She portrays a bold and sassy wife who initially distanced herself from her own family. Together, the Li family manages their teahouse, while seeking partners who match each daughter's character and ideals.
In her role as Madame Li, Ni Hong-jie portrays a mother to five daughters for the first time. Reflecting about her experience collaborating with the younger cast, Ni commented, "We spent several months filming together, and I developed deep emotional bonds with my five on-screen daughters both on and off the set. On set, we are mother and daughters; off-screen, we are more like friends. They are full of energy, and the lively and cheerful atmosphere on set every day truly brought me great comfort."
"I am incredibly excited for the series to launch on Netflix. The production team put great effort into historical research on details such as costumes, food, and daily necessities. Having the series broadcast on Netflix is a fantastic opportunity to share traditional Chinese culture with a global audience, and being part of such a drama is truly an honor."
Wang Xing-yue, the star of The Double, plays Chai An, a resourceful and wealthy landlord in Bianjing whose teahouse is located right across the street from the Li Family's. Chai An develops a complex love-hate relationship with San-niang, marked by rivalry, tension, and unspoken affection. Co-starring with Wang Xing-yue for the first time, Lu Yu-xiao (My Journey to You) described Wang as a dedicated actor with creative ideas for his role and praised his attentiveness to everyones emotions on set.
"The most memorable part about being on set is how lively it is! Each scene involves many actors, and we often gather to chat, filling the set with laughter and joy. Even the set decorations reflect everyday life, granting us a warm and authentic experience of being in a bustling family setting," shared Lu. As the series prepares for its global debut on Netflix, Wang added, "It is a great honor and pride to take Perfect Match overseas. This allows more people to witness Chinese historical dramas and appreciate our long-standing traditional culture. For every creator involved in this production, it is profoundly meaningful." Lu echoed, "It feels like the Li family from the Song dynasty is connecting with the world. It's a wonderful feeling to bridge time and space."
Romantic comedy period series Perfect Match is set during the reign of Renzong in the Northern Song Dynasty. Madam Li moves her family to the prosperous city of Bianjing to start a teahouse business while scouting for the perfect match for each of her beautiful daughters. As fish out of water, the Li family encounters several obstacles, yet Madam Li's daughters are always able to overcome them with their intelligence, wit and resilience.
Perfect Match is coming soon exclusively and globally on Netflix.
