The Pancake Emperor Returns

Synopsis

For a thousand years, Celestial Emperor Qin Yuan has posed as a pancake seller while guarding the Dragon-Sealing Cauldron. A century earlier, nine families saved him after he subdued nine dragons, and he repaid them with the dragons' fortune on the promise that one family's eldest daughter would marry him. When the heirs arrive to cancel that bargain, the prosperity he granted them begins to answer with divine punishment.

You Are My Antidote

Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<

My favorite of his modern-set work and honestly my favorite short drama full stop. You get the complete unhinged-psycho performance, and I'd say his acting leveled up here. If you're working through his filmography, this is the one.
