Ruby Lin and Jiro Wang Sizzle in Photo Shoot Promoting Drama Go Go Go

Man, being totally caught up on Drama Go Go Go totally sucks sucks sucks (btw, this triplicate thingie is addicting and I can’t stop doing it anytime I write about DGGG so my apologies to grammar sticklers out there). I finished this past weekend’s episodes 7-8 and my mood was stuck somewhere between anxious and satisfied. The pace of the drama continues to knock my socks off with that perfect blend of breezy and earnest, which leaves me desperately wanting more. At this point the OTP have gotten together and how it happened was wonderfully heartfelt and I found myself cheering out loud for the leads to experience both romance and professional success. I had no doubt Eason wouldn’t be written off the show, though the inside riffs on making him comatose, bringing him back for a last hurrah, then killing him off only to have him resurrect in a miracle had me ROFL.

What’s making me so anxious is the understanding that Eason and Ming Ming are going to face many obstacles that comes with him becoming a big star and her being this mousy scriptwriter. I’m also looking forward to the bromance between Eason and Shao Tian, though part of me wished that Shao Tian would actually admit that he likes Ming Ming and throw his hat into the ring. This little brother protectiveness he’s got going does hit all my happy spots. During the drama filming Ruby Lin and Jiro Wang did a photo shoot together that should have alterted me to their impending fantastic chemistry. Sadly I was still totally meh on Ruby back then so now I’m coming around to appreciating it at last. While Jiro is, looks, and acts younger than Ruby in the drama, what makes their relationship work is how emotionally candid and brave they are with each other. This is one gloriously unexpected home run pairing.

  • Watching DGGG "live" is like the opposite of water torture.
    The subs drip drip drip drip so s_l_o_w_l_y.

    I watch the eps raw, and appreciate what I see and feel.
    Then I watch at 27% subbed and understand some cool dialogue and go "Aww!"
    Then it climbs all the way up to 67% and I'm like "THIS IS AWESOME!"
    Eventually it will be 100%, and I will re re re re watch.

    Eason and Ming Ming together are a heart-tugging sweeeeet couple that make me smile ear to ear. You know how there are those montages where the OTP goes on a date, or sits on the lr floor drinking champagne, and you can SEE the chemistry between the pair? You can see he is really having fun with her and vice versa?

    What impressed me about that interaction was the BTS show a different dynamic. Not that they don't get along, because they do. But the age difference puts in that respect boundary, and therefore a little bit of distance. Also how serious Ruby is, how businesslike. She's a smart one, and I can totally see her as a producer.

    • Must say, that I LOVE the two subbers on the viki DGGG team.
      Can I send them flowers or coffee or caramel candy apples for their work?
      It's a big job to tackle almost all alone.

      • Is there seriously only two subbers? I wish I knew mandarin. I cannot wait to to see drama go go go when it is fully subbed.

      • Thank you for this news, Jomo. The pictures were drawing me in, but (as I have said before) I CANNOT start a new drama before the semester is over. Your news about this show only having two subbers (poor things; I want to send them a gift and I am not even watching the show!) makes it easier to stay away until I have finished all grading, committee work, and grant proposals.

  • Oh whoa, I actually saw this magazine when I was in Taiwan, and was really weirded out by the "Ruby Lin x Jiro Wang" headline, lol. In any case, just may be checking out DGGG after finals, so thanks for sharing about it! n_n

  • Forgot to say I like how the photog on this shoot, and the director in DGGG has Jiro use his hands.
    So much of the character's confidence, and therefore sexiness, is displayed in small gestures.
    Plus, I think he has nice hands. :)

  • thank you for the article, ms. koala!

    i actually saw the interview for this photo shoot sometime in the summer. it's now fully subbed on Viki, if anyone wants to see!

    unfortunately, i haven't started watching the drama yet. :'( gonna hold off until winter break!
