Maoyan, one of the largest film and actor rating systems in China, recently announced a list of the 10 hottest TV series in the first half of 2025.
It is not surprising that "Tang Hai Truyen" by Tieu Chien won the championship with the highest popularity of 9809.70 points. This is also the film with the most days reaching Top 1 in terms of popularity with 20 days.
In addition, the film has the highest total number of views in the first half of 2025 on the Dengta platform (Dang Thap) with 2.5 billion views, ranking top 2 on the Van Hop platform with more than 1.7 billion views.
Ranked 2nd is "Quoc sac phuong hoa" by Duong Tu with the highest heat of 9809.28 points. After "Truong Tuong Tu", this is the actress's next historical drama that received a lot of attention.
In addition to the content mixing elements of struggle, war, love and entrepreneurship, "Quoc sac phuong hoa" has many details honoring culture and history that attract viewers. Duong Tu's painting of ancient costumes with a strong Duong style and the "chemistry" of the main character couple received many compliments.
On the first day of airing on Mango TV, the film reached nearly 10 million views and increased 3 times after 2 days. At the end of the show, "Quoc sac phuong hoa" reached an average of 40.83 million views/episode according to Van Hop.
The next position belongs to "Dai Phung Da Canh Nhan". Instead of following the traditional historical romance motif, but leaning towards detectives and investigators to solve cases in hypothetical settings, the film has an average of 30 million views/episode.
This is a highly anticipated adaptation and received a lot of investment. The young cast, with a huge fan base such as Vuong Hac De, Dien Hi Vi... is also a factor to attract fans.
Despite having a fairly high rating (viewership rate) on CCTV1 channel, "Bac Thuong" only ranked 9th in the hot rankings. At the time of airing, the film received a lot of attention when it featured young actors Bach Loc and Au Hao.
In particular, Bai Lu is said to have made remarkable progress in acting, marking the first step of transformation from historical films to modern drama films.
