My Loong arrived on Tencent Video and WeTV on Thursday, October 22, 2026, with a release plan that gives paying VIP members six episodes on day one and free viewers a two-episode daily run starting November 7. The Chinese fantasy short drama runs for 24 episodes in its streaming cut, not the 30 episodes listed in some early production records. Each episode lasts roughly 11 to 15 minutes, so the full season is easy to finish in a few sittings. Here is the complete schedule, the global clock times for the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and India, and the official platforms for each region.
What My Loong Is and When It Premiered
My Loong (Chinese title: ไบ่้พ) is a historical fantasy short drama directed by He Jianan and written by Shu Ying. Tencent Video and WeTV began streaming it on Thursday, October 22, 2026. The story follows Yue Wangshu, a general’s daughter who is sacrificed to the Dragon Abyss and accidentally frees the sealed Dragon Lord, Li Zhi. The two start as enemies and form a blood pact: her blood can suppress the Li Fire curse that burns inside him, and his power helps her fight the political schemes of the Yue family and Prince Qi.
Tencent Video classifies the show as romance, fantasy and traditional costume drama. The short episode length places it inside Tencent’s ๅๅ็ญๅง (Ten Minutes Short Drama) label, a mobile-first format built for quick viewing. The series was filmed in Hengdian over about 30 days in March and April 2026 and passed Chinese regulatory review in August 2026.

Where to Watch My Loong in Each Region
Tencent Video is the main platform in mainland China. The international version, WeTV, carries the show in most markets outside China, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and India. WeTV offers subtitles in multiple languages, including English, Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic and Hindi.
- Mainland China: Tencent Video and ๆๅ TV (Aurora TV)
- International: WeTV in most countries
- Southeast Asia: iflix (Tencent-owned, available in Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and other markets)
- US, UK, Canada, Australia, India: WeTV is the official option; catalogue availability can vary by country
Tencent Video itself is geo-restricted to mainland China. Viewers outside China need WeTV or iflix. WeTV is available on mobile apps, smart TVs and web browsers. The platform’s catalogue can differ slightly by country because of local licensing, so a show page visible in one region may not appear in another.
Why Some Listings Say 30 Episodes Instead of 24
Early production records and Baidu Baike list My Loong as a 30-episode short drama. Tencent Video’s own episode tracker, WeTV’s listing, and daily update calendars show a 24-episode run. The 30-episode figure comes from the project’s filing and pre-release materials. The streaming cut is 24 episodes. Episode trackers on October 29 showed episode 16, which fits the 24-episode schedule and not a 30-episode one. Viewers following the show should use the 24-episode count.
Cast and Episode Runtime
The main cast of My Loong:
- Hu Lianxin as Yue Wangshu
- Li Wenhan as Li Zhi
- Huang Sirui as Yue Xingyao
- Liu Jiaye as Zhu Xun
- Huo Qianlan as Yue Junluo
- Zu Ka’er as Yue Qiyang
- Liu Yakun
- Xue Bayi as Zhu Heng
He Jianan directed the series. Shu Ying wrote the script. Episodes run about 11 to 15 minutes, depending on the platform listing. The short runtime is typical of Tencent’s short-drama format, which is designed for mobile viewing and quick daily releases.
