Love of the Painting Spirit

share time: 2025-12-18 00:49:07

Su Wan is a down-and-out painter who was cheated on by her best friend and dropped by her gallery. While copying an ancestral ancient painting, she accidentally awakens Gu Zhao, a "painting spirit" trapped in the painting for a thousand years—a former imperial painter with extraordinary skills who instantly sees through the hypocrisy around her. Gu Zhao helps Su Wan rediscover her passion for painting, and her work "Urban Rivers and Mountains" using ancient techniques makes her a rising artist. But Gu Zhao's identity hides a deadly secret: only by collecting three scattered scrolls of the "Rivers and Mountains" painting can he stay human. The last scroll is in the hands of the wealthy gallery owner Su Wan just signed with—who demands she trade her love for fame. Su Wan must choose between Gu Zhao's life and her hard-earned success.
