Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Renascence adapts the 'rebirth' trope (chongsheng) popular in Chinese web novels, where protagonists get second chances to fix past mistakes—here literalized through supernatural possession rather than time travel.
Chen Zheyuan filmed this directly before becoming a breakout star in 2021's The Untamed sequel universe; his brooding prince here is basically audition tape energy.
