Hey, this has so much potential! Cyrano de Bergerac is a favorite trope and this would be welcome addition.
You’re right about the dearth of shows with queer female leads. I’ve only seen a couple on asian crush and hotpot dot tv. (Hotpot features their conventional dramas by default. One has to click Browse to see the LGBTQ filter.)
Today was the first that I’ve heard the name for the trope. I firmly believe though that a trope can be as hackneyed as you can get, but the scriptwriting and delivery can make it amazing.
I haven’t checked out HotPot is a while.
Viki also has a few with the HIStory series among them.
This is the other part of my write-up that got deleted:
1] One of the few queer films with a female lead. Seriously, there are disproportionately more dramas and films with queer or gay male characters than female characters.
[2] And she’s Asian?! What?! Heck yes!!! (I’ll just wait another two decades until we get a South Asian queer (female) lead).
[3] I’m just super hyped for this. Please don’t be a let down. Please.
