Born with Luck (2026) is an upcoming Chinese black comedy thriller television series slated for release on May 4, 2026, across iQIYI and Migu Video, with television broadcasts commencing on May 6, 2026, on Jiangsu TV and Dragon TV. Adapted from Zi Jin Chen's novel "Di Zhi Shang Fan Zui" (formerly "Low IQ Crime"), the 24-episode drama centers on veteran detective Zhang Yi Ang, who investigates a murder case and finds unexpected assistance from a group of "bungling thieves" while confronting a powerful criminal network. The series aims to blend absurd humor with crime storytelling, maintaining tension throughout. As of its premiere date, detailed parental reviews or specific content breakdowns are limited, but the genre suggests it targets a more mature audience interested in crime and comedic elements without necessarily being overly graphic.
