Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Zhong Kui is a genuine figure from Chinese folklore, traditionally depicted as a fierce exorcist who commands demons—here reimagined as a dreamy baker because why not.
The series blends Xianxia fantasy tropes with modern Taiwanese idol drama pacing, creating a genre mashup that somehow works despite itself.
