4 Justifiable Defense posters drop – Edward Zhang-led law-themed C-drama premieres July 9th on iQIYI

Michelle Topham July 5, 2025

Four new posters for the upcoming Edward Zhang-led Chinese law-themed drama Justifiable Defense have been released over the last couple of days, along with comments about the C-drama’s plot.

The iQIYI Weibo account, where the posters were shared, also tagged the director (Li Yun Liang), stars (Edward Zhang and Gao Ye) and guest star (Bai Jing Ting) of Justifiable Defense.

The first comment, which was made alongside the release of the Justifiable Defense ‘City Shrouded in Fog’ poster (see above) says:

When testimonies turn into blades clashing in court, the truth drowns in a labyrinth of lies. Is justice tarnished, or is malice disguised?

Darkness may cloud the eyes for a time, but at the end of the debate over justifiable defense, the light of truth will pierce the sky like a sword!

Starting July 9th, #WebDramaJustifiableDefense# exclusively streams on iQiyi!

Screenwriter: Jia Dong Yan (@故事人贾东岩) and Hada Yao (@哈达瑶)
Director: Li Yun Liang (@导演李云亮)
Starring: Gao Ye (@高叶ChLoe)
Starring: Zhang Lu Yi (aka Edward Zhang) (@张鲁一)
Special Guest Star: Bai Jing Ting (@白敬亭)
Starring: Zhang Xin Yi (@张歆艺)
Starring: Zhang Bo Jia (@张柏嘉), and Ye Qing (@叶青Julia)

Director Li Yun Liang, by the way, also directed last year’s Judge Dee’s Mystery, so he’s already experienced in unraveling a mystery plot in an interesting way.

Three much more abstract “Suspense Highlight” posters for the Chinese drama were released early this morning (see above and below), with the message:

#WebSeries Justifiable Defense#

One asparagus, a sharp knife, a torrential downpour… Whose fate is rewritten in an instant?

#Suspense Highlights of Justifiable Defense# Unlock the thrilling story on iQiyi from July 9th!

As iQIYI points out, Justifiable Defense (aka 正当防卫 in Chinese) hits the streaming service on July 9th. You can reserve it on their platform now.

Six character visuals were released this week as well.
