After translating thirty-eight dense chapters and following the drama progress for over two years, I think I’m done writing about Da Mo Yao. At least done when it comes to having more opinions about the casting, struggle to get on air, and first peeks at the end product. The upcoming C-drama renamed Sound of the Desert is finally arriving on the small screen in a few days and I’ll be ready whether or not I feel like it. Two years ago I would actually be so excited this blog would be a series of posts on just this drama. The fervor has died down but the goodwill remains, not to mention leads Liu Shi Shi and Hu Ge are two of my favorite young C-actors. The two attended the official drama press conference this week with the other lead Eddie Peng sending a video from Taiwan where he’s currently busy on a project. Eddie has been mainly movies for the last few years so I’m sure his fans will appreciate his return to the small screen playing General Wei Wu Ji.
I’m watching for the reunion of Shi Shi as Xin Yue and Hu Ge as Jiu Ye in their umpteeth drama together but finally getting a straightforward love line. Those who have read the book know that their love one is the angsty one and during the press conference, Shi Shi playfully punched Hu Ge in the head to get him back for rejecting her so many times in the early parts of the drama and making her suffer. Oh sweetie, he’s going to suffer wayyyyyyy more than you’ll ever know just to make you happy. A furry Alaskan Mamalute bounded on the stage to join in the festivities, standing in for the drama’s Brother Wolf and all the doggies who played wolves for the filming. As much as this press conference was for the drama, for the life of me I cannot take my eyes off new and improved Hu Ge. Who knew facial hair can transform this man from leading man handsome to oh-my-god-can-I-carry-your-child-please gorgeous. He’s never allowed to shave that goatee off. EVER.
Even though Eddie couldn’t make the press conference in person, he delivered a major laugh for everyone present when he weighed in on the question of which guy Shi Shi should be with (since this drama relies on a major love triangle) by making a succinct and final proclamation of “Shi Shi belongs to 4th Prince!” Good one, Eddie.
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…
If I didn't know this drama was a romance set in space and done K-drama…

OMG! I think my ovary just exploded..Huge is so sexxy with his goatee.
LOL, I read a comment from another forum with someone swearing with her Uterus, and laughed at it. Now I am reading one that uses Ovary. You have just started my morning with a good laugh. Thanks. Must be a fab now.
Wow. He has always been handsome, but seriously. NEVER SHAVE THE GOATEE!!!! My ovaries are too old to explode, but... Holy smokes.
omg third ovaries just exploded too! damn never knew he can grow some facial hair like that! damn gorgeous!
Hw does look amazing with the goatee...but the pants lol
i had to go back up again to look at the pants and then I LOLed like crazy. the goatee was all I could see the first time soooo manly and bam the pants look like a grade schooler's complete with creases and all. He probably took man child a little too literally :-)
Honestly he was always objectively good looking in a pretty way but thissss is something else I think I fell in crush with him :-)
yeah face up, all so rts of handsome , knees down - not so much. not just the too short hem but also the lack of socks! with a suit??? no, just no
so i'll just restrict my vision to his points above LOL!
Well that dress certainly won't make the rumours that she's pregnant die down.
There was a girl in the pictures? Didn't notice.
Damn. He is sexy-handsome w/ that gorgeous goatee. :D
So is LSS pregnant? Because that dress is one way to hide a pregnancy... In any case they're both gorgeous and I can't wait to watch the drama!! Hope it'll be subbed really fast ^^
What the hell does she have on!? Looks like she's hiding something alright.
Ah! Like the 4th prince answer. SIGH. Is she really carrying a new prince or princess?
Does he have that look in the show, too, or just the press con?
LOL love Eddie's response! You can't stop the Ruoxi/4th Prince OTP train.
Can't wait for DMY to finally air <3 fingers crossed for English subs.
