Yi Yizi and Wu Yi play handcuffed couple in Summer Sweetheart

Yi Yizi and Wu Yi are way too cute in both this photoshoot and the drama.

Chained by handcuffs, first time actors Yi Yizi and Wu Yi plays an adorable couple in eeMedia & Sohu’s miniseries Summer Sweetheart 夏日甜心.   iMe’s Yi Yizi plays the sassy girlfriend who links the innocent and unaware Wu Yi to herself.  Although the series uses mainly traditional idol plots, it always manages to add fun quirks.  Although the plot isn’t as fun as Liu Xijun and Zhang He’s 3:10 episode, it’s never a quick, cute watch.

Watch their episode below and look at their even cuter photoshoot below the cut.
