When is Perfect Match coming to Netflix?
Netflix has not officially announced a release date for Perfect Match. We expect to see the romantic comedy period drama on Netflix in early 2025.
What is the plot of Perfect Match?
Netflix has provided a very detailed synopsis for Perfect Match:
“The story follows the five beautiful daughters of the Li family, whose vivacious nature, inherited from their mother, Madame Li, earned them the notorious nickname “The Six Tigers of the Li Family.” Realizing her daughters remain unmarried in their hometown of Luo-yang, Madame Li decides to move the family to Bianjing to find each of her daughters a compatible match. In the new city, the six women juggle starting a teahouse business while searching for spouses, encountering comedic twists and heartfelt moments along the way.
Set during the reign of Renzong in the Northern Song Dynasty, Madame Li (Ni Hong-jie) is a wealthy matriarch from Luo-yang who prides herself on her five beautiful daughters. Her eldest, Shou-hua (Liu Xie-ning), is a young, dutiful widow disinterested in remarriage. Kang-ning (Lu Yu-xiao), the third daughter, is independent and strong-willed, earning the nickname “The Rogue Tiger.” The fourth daughter, Hao-de (Ke Ying) is brutally honest, while the youngest, Le-shan (Huang Yang Tian-tian) is naive, impulsive, and the most spirited in the family.
The second daughter, Fu-hui (Wu Xuan-yi), is the only one married, having wed into a wealthy family in Bianjing. She portrays a bold and sassy wife who initially distanced herself from her own family. Together, the Li family manages their teahouse, while seeking partners who match each daughter’s character and ideals. “
Who are the cast of Perfect Match?
There are ten lead cast members listed for Perfect Match: Ni Hong Jie, Lu Yu Xiao, Liu Xie Ning, Wu Xuan Yi, Ke Ying, Huangyang Tian Tian, Chen He Yi, Wang Xing Yue, Huang Sheng Chi, and Winwin.
Ni Hong Jie plays Madame Li. The actress had the following to say about her role in the series:
“We spent several months filming together, and I developed deep emotional bonds with my five on-screen daughters both on and off the set. On set, we are mother and daughters; off-screen, we are more like friends. They are full of energy, and the lively and cheerful atmosphere on set every day truly brought me great comfort.
I am incredibly excited for the series to launch on Netflix. The production team put great effort into historical research on details such as costumes, food, and daily necessities. Having the series broadcast on Netflix is a fantastic opportunity to share traditional Chinese culture with a global audience, and being part of such a drama is truly an honor.”
