Da Zhou Di Yi Xu

2026 · 1 season

A rapid-fire costume drama of constant small humiliations and scheming, easy to dip into but relentless in its pressure.

Overview: Shen Jing wakes up in the Great Zhou dynasty in the body of a young master whose family has fallen on hard times. Everyone around him seems to have an opinion of his worth, and none of it is good: he is snubbed, mocked, cursed, pushed down, and before long in real danger of his life. His only advantage is what he brought with him, and he means to use every bit of it to climb.
How it feels: Tense, dark, earnest and melancholic. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Power, class, survival, ambition
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
