Fans of Zhao Lusi and Ding Yuxi have long awaited the continuation of this witty, fourth-wall-breaking, and unexpectedly emotional love story.

Originally airing in 2020, “The Romance of Tiger and Rose” quickly became a fan-favorite thanks to its unique story. It tells the tale of screenwriter Chen Xiaoqian who finds herself transported into her own script — a matriarchal world where she becomes the infamous Third Princess, Chen Qianqian. There, she collides with the cold and cunning Han Shuo, played by Ding Yuxi.

The first season ended with a clever twist, leaving fans questioning the boundaries of fiction and reality. Season 2 dove deeper into their bond, but still left room for exploration — and fans demanded more.

Season 3 promises to dive deeper into:

• 🔥 The politics between the cities of Huayuan and Xuanhu
  
  

• 💞 The evolving romance between Chen Qianqian and Han Shuo
  
  

• 🧠 More witty script rewrites from Chen Xiaoqian’s point of view
  
  

• 🎭 Unexpected time skips and plot meta-references
  
  

• ⚔️ A possible civil war that threatens the world Chen Qianqian built
  
  

As of now, Zhao Lusi and Ding Yuxi are confirmed to return, much to fans' delight. There are rumors that a new male lead will be introduced as a love rival to Han Shuo, bringing fresh conflict to the love triangle dynamic.

Supporting cast members are expected to return, including:

• Sheng Yinghao as Pei Heng
  
  

• Zhou Zixin as Su Mu
  
  

• Chen Minghao in an undisclosed role (rumored guest villain)
  
  

Since the Season 3 teaser dropped on Weibo, the hashtag #TheRomanceofTigerandRoseS3 has trended multiple times, with over 200 million views in just three days. Fans have been dissecting every frame, trying to guess what this season’s twist will be.

Popular fan theories include:

• Chen Qianqian becoming the villain in her own story
  
  

• Han Shuo regaining memories from the “real world”
  
  

• An alternate timeline where Qianqian never writes the script
  
  

While the exact release date hasn’t been announced, Season 3 is scheduled for mid-to-late 2025 and is expected to air on Tencent Video and WeTV globally. International fans can expect multilingual subtitles.

“The Romance of Tiger and Rose” redefined what historical rom-coms could look like — with sharp writing, a meta perspective, and lovable leads. Season 3 aims to push the envelope even further. With Zhao Lusi and Ding Yuxi’s chemistry stronger than ever, the wait will be worth it.
