I don’t know who Song Wei Long pissed off but he has one finished drama collecting dust on the shelf which is Everlasting Longing with Angelababy, and now another drama where he gets flower vase Ju Jing Yi in all her dangly bits glory. The drama with Ju Jing Yi is titled The Eternal Fragrance and is a xianxia story. The drama recently hit 1 million reservations on Youku and released new posters and stills which show that Ju Jing Yi still was insisting on her makeup style during the filming earlier this year which is so frustrating because Song Wei Long looks so great here.

I recall he had dispute with his agency (or ex agency) which held him back for a while. Luckily he is still young. This is his second drama with JJY.
Despite her whitish makeup, I still find JJY watchable. Although I know JJY playing similar characters all the time, It’s understandable that playing intelligent and sensible characters remain her comfort zone.
Frankly, being pretty and popular are all part of a lucrative industry. How many average looking girls with outstanding acting abilities can we name so far? And yes, there are also some pretty girls with great acting, but are they popular with plenty of fans or subscribers?
Eh I’m one of those audience. I know she’s not the greatest actress out there but for me she is watchable. I just hope she stops taking on lively roles cos they are starting to mesh into one. Her role as Shangguan Zhi was something different so I hope she looks for roles like this.
I find her watchable too! She’s not my favorite by all means but she’s really pretty and in the right drama I find her good.
I was wondering about him. He has quite a few dramas lined up but none have been showcased. I almost thought he might be cancelled. Hopefully we get to see them because almost all he signed up for seem quite interesting.
I mean apart from the drama with Angelababy which didnt air due to obvious reasons, his other dramas completed filming late last year or this year. Like this drama with JJY its only completed in April and since its a xianxia there’s lots of post-production to be done.
I used to look forward to her dramas because of Zhang Zhe Han but lately I find that all her characters are kind of the same. I find that she’s a very limited actress. It helps when she’s with a strong male lead like ZZH. Her makeup is getting old with the pale white palate. Her audience will get tired unless she grows out of her comfort zone and immense herself in her role. Right now, I see that she cares more about how she looks onscreen.
It’s sad that there are alot more actresses that will never see the light of day despite their talents. I wish to see Hu Yi Xuan more but she rarely gets any work. Sigh.. I guess having big backers is key.
I have never seen the guy act but supposedly he’s the goodlooking- bad actor type so him getting less work doesnt seem like much of a loss to the industry.
This seems like big flop from miles away, but that JJY is really getting on my nerves with her never changing face, why a girl who changed her face completely with SP cant let go of the same face now?
He is a terrible actor and combined with her this is going to be hilarious.
He’s also a flower vase… If nothing, this will be good for people who just enjoy watching pretty people.
Song Weilong is back?
What kind of chemistry would be shown when two FLOWER VASES acting together?
There is a huge fight going on at Weibo done by JJY’s fans due to billing order (her name should be the first and the most highly prominent name everywhere) and supposed lack of respect for her amazing status in the industry by the production’s team. LOL
JJY, her team and her fandom always causing ruckus due to ego. The problem is that SWL is going to be the one being accused and bashed by everyone.
JJY and her people did it to Chen Zhe Yuan and people here stupidly believe he was the only guilty party in the mess.
C-Ent is crazy.
He’s so handsome, but I’ve never finished any of his other dramas besides Untouchable Lovers (ridiculous plot) and Go Ahead.
JJY looks the same. Why am I not surprised?…
Me too…
I surprisingly went through quite a few SWL dramas, Go Ahead, Nobleman, Bionic Life, I think he did reasonably well portraying serious, earnest characters, but I would be wary of him challenging other type of roles.
JJY went into my list of unwatchable after In Blossom.
What? Song Weilong has been working, pretty steady actually. He’s no longer tied to Huanyu/Yu Zheng (a blessing for him) after he sued them, which is why he laid low for some period but definitely not under the radar. He still bags high profile endorsements since he nabbed Gucci this year.
Literally just finished a MGTV production with one of the newer faces of ’00 đŸŒ¸, Bao Shangen, since the industry is bringing on more newcomers to lead C-dramas.
As for the Eternal Fragrance drama, I’m more cautious of Ju Jingyi rather than him. Would definitely make no sense for her to be top-billed since SWL joined the project first and she was no where near it until joining it last minute. I found it dumb that the production decided the billing order by who had the least strokes of their names in Simplified Chinese (which still meant Song Weilong got first billing btw).
I think JJY was supposed to do the drama adaption of Offering Salted Fish to Master with Chen Feiyu but dropped out over billing (Wang Yinglu is better suited and more talented anyways).
If anyone had the range of a wet mop, it’s her. Girl has been doing the exact same stuff and it’s getting outdated since she’s no longer a newcomer and the “fairy-like” aura.
lol he is more of a flower base than her… I wonder how stiff he will be in costume drama ESP IF they dubbed him over. I cant wait to see how that will be…
