Gong Jun in Talks for Wuxia and Politics Period C-drama Bai Yi Gong Qing
There are C-stars that seem to work nonstop from drama to drama and others like Gong Jun I feel could benefit from doing more projects. Right now he only has Tales of Dark River on deck that I’m interested in so this new casting news piques my hope that he will accept. He’s in talks for the wuxia and investigative political period C-drama 白衣公卿 Bai Yi Gong Qing which translates best as White Outfit/Robe Constable. It’s adapted from the novel 锦衣行 Jin Yi Xing about the constables of the Ming Dynasty. This is prepped as a big male lead and big budget drama so right up Gong Jun’s alley.
Typo in title?
I find many young idols these days especially male idols who are often too busy to date, afraid or even cannot date, they lack the experience of truly falling in love. Many male idols these days really seem lacking the right level of chemistry in romance dramas. They will act it but they lack something.
Recently, a popular Chinese director/producer Hao Lei, bought out this point. Li Cheng Ru said the same..
Older traffic actors usually film 1 drama/year. GJ falls in this category. I hope the rumor is true.
Sorry fans, but Gong Jun can’t hold a big male lead drama by himself.
Agree… He need a good pairing to aid his acting. Must be a good, strong pairing.
It’s good for him to finally move on from female-centric dramas.
He doesn’t need a good pairing but a strong/powerful character.
I really can’t watching him in hold a court now.. it seems like depict a daily life a law firm. once in a while not doing something in BIG project is okay for me.
I really love him in Legend of Anle. He seems excel showing this vulnerability side in his acting that seems take advantage by alot by producer from rising with the wind, Legend of Anle, because male lead tend to show more about their machismo / masculinity. I really love it about him he is not afraid showing weakness/frailty when the character called to show it.
Oh, he’s still in the game. LOL. Word of Honor remains the only talks-worthy drama of him as ONE OF the MLs. LOL.
