I think 一念向北 is already airing, and the filming was actually donein 2013. Viki even got a licence for it and are calling it Thinking of You, Lu Xiang Bei.

@creidesca and @xingfenzhen Yop! Thanks for noticing the mistake! We tend to put the raw translation of the name from Chinese directly unless the English name is well known or written on the poster/stills. The naming was changed! 😀

You left out: 聶小倩 starring Annie Chen and Christopher Lee, it still airing on CTV. Unfortunately, Viki doesn’t have the license for the drama.

Thanks for the input! This list is only the dramas that the viki is working on right now, such that our non-mandarin readers can know what they could watch. That’s why it is not on the list. Also, we are not very familiar with 聶小倩 starring Annie Chen and Christopher Lee and that is why we never covered this drama on the blog… We will try to look out for this drama if we see interesting info about it in the future!
