These days any news around Bu Bu Jing Xin is all about the K-version adaptation, which isn’t remaking the C-drama but is adapting the original source C-novel in its own way. That’s good because the C-version had its own flair and wasn’t completely identical to the novel, and also because trying to copy a copy greatly increases the odds of a dramatic disaster. K-BBJX won’t be here for awhile since it’s going to be fully pre-produced as many prime time 2016 K-dramas are doing, so those who haven’t yet watched the C-version really should check it out.
It still holds up even 5 years later, and is truly a work of love and perfect casting synergy and performance bravura. I’ve never seen Nicky Wu, before or after, give such an incredible performance as tightly wound loverboy extraordinaire 4th Prince, and similarly Liu Shi Shi still needs to count Ruo Xi as the pinnacle of her acting career. The two leads made up for the copious tears audiences shed for them watching the drama by dating and then getting married in real life, 17 year age difference bedamned. They’re notoriously low key so it’s a total surprise for me to see C-ent gushing this week over their just release couples pictorial in Marie Claire China. It’s so much love I can’t even. T____T These are tears of happiness, people!
Forever 4th Prince and Ruo Xi. <33333333
ARGH I was swooning over the photos then you inserted the BBJX photos. You know the drama made me cry more tears than all the dramas I ever watched combined!!!
Love the 2nd pic. So cute ?
After watching the show, heart literally ache every time I thought of 4th Prince and Ruoxi. Thus I was elated when they got together in real life ?
He is 17 years older than her!!
Ages are only number but love is everything
4th Prince and Ruo Xi! Love them. And may the real life couple be happy together forever!
I shipped them so hard in the drama so it was such a pleasant surprise that they got together in real life. Love them to bits!
She’s so beautiful and he’s very handsome! My heart be still! Such a gorgeous pair that takes my breath away!!
She is exquisite. I like them both. I love the photos of them. I wish them every happiness.
LOVE THESE SOOO MUCH! thanks 🙂
One thing I love about them is that they are extremely low key and they don’t do PDA as much as other couples. But then once in a while, news of them being together really warm my heart. I was very surpass by this couple photoshoot as well, maybe they trying to gift us a pre wedding pics………. anyway, best wishes to LONGSHI – beautiful couple
So true, since they are so low profile, every time they release a tiny bit of news or info it teases us fans so much! 😀
SQUEEEEEE!!! I just finished the recaps for BBJX, and it was awesome. Love this spread!
Nicky Wu doesn’t look his age at all and Shi Shi is beautiful as always <3
Wishing them happiness!
You’re so right about his age. He doesn’t look 17 years older than her, maybe 4 or 6, but 17?! Whatever he’s doing (or not doing, if it’s in his genes), he looks good, in general, and to be beside Shi Shi. The age gap doesn’t even show. They’re so adorable together! Glad that 4th prince and Ruo Xi got together in our modern era. *SOB* So beautiful…
Awwww. Congrats to the couple.
Beautiful pictures! xD
Love them in BBJX and extremely happy that they got together and married in real life! they’re both gorgeous and awesome!
My ship is doomed 8th Prince. But it’s okay since I love their interactions offscreen.. They look just so in love with each other, 17 years age difference what?
Oh yeah, btw I just watching BBJX for about a week and will finish it soon.. Love it very much!
They are so perfect for each other, truely deeply real love. Wish them are happy forever and after.
I find Liu Shi Shi look better in period costume but this photo shoot change my mind. She looks lovely & charming, not aloof. Really compatible with Nicky!
Aww… Lovely! Such a treat to see them together.
He doesn’t even look that much older than her. I thought he was around 4 or 5 years older!
Can IU pull a miracle and make the age difference work in the remake as well? I have high hopes for Lee Junki obviously, but I need their chemistry to work too.
I do love both of them. The way they look at each other really touch my heart. I want to see them in another series.
