The upcoming TW-drama You Light Up My Star is starting to look to more and more interesting, and I’m not just talking about the all-star team of Director Winnie (In Time With You, It Started With a Kiss) directing the reunion of Joe Cheng and Janine Chang from their Honey and Clover days. You Light Up My Star has been … Continue reading →
Okay, how shall I put this? Take a deep breath before watching the latest preview for episode 17 of In a Good Way? Yes, that is a good idea since you will forget to breathe when you watch it. Have a defibrillator handy? Also a good idea, but if you don’t own one, then I suggest having someone around that … Continue reading →
Episode 5 continues to ramp up the speed and silliness in Bride of the Century, and with it I keep getting more and more entertained. Who knew crazy could be so much fun? This is a drama where I love all the delightful scheming machinations as much as I watch for the romance. It’s really hard to write antagonists and … Continue reading →
This is the chapter everyone has been waiting for up till now. And no, I don’t mean Xiao Yao gets to make out with the hottie dudes who clearly love her. That may or may not come later, but in chapter 12 of Lost You Forever, Xiao Yao finally gets her real face back and we all get our first … Continue reading →
Are wedding bells coming in the near future for high powered C-couple Huang Xiaoming and Angelababy (Yang Ying)? From the looks of their very high profile public confirmation of their relationship, I would bet on it happening for this couple that pretty much no one thought would make it. Huang Xiaoming and Angelebaby have been dating for the last 3 … Continue reading →
C-writer Tong Hua has carved out a nice niche for herself writing romance novels mixed with Chinese history, but that doesn’t always go over well with readers that find her twists and distortions to events in historical texts to be nothing short of blasphemy. Some readers with their panties in a wad are still ripping apart Da Mo Yao, which … Continue reading →
This photo op of Ha Ji Won and Gong Yoo is like danging candy in front of a group of ravenous kids on their birthday and then saying “sorry, you have to keep on waiting”. Two of Korea’s top A-listers finally made a joint appearance in something, but sadly it’s not a drama, movie, CF, or anything that remotely requires … Continue reading →
Watching Bride of the Century is like taking a bite of that delicious mango cake Kang Joo bought for Doo Rim at the end of episode 4. Or any such simple satisfying creamy dessert will do, the delectable softness melting in your mouth as the sweet aroma infuses all the senses. BotC continues to get better and better, and even … Continue reading →
Whatever magic elixir that the combination of Liu Chuan and Jia En together creates, I wish SETTV can bottle it and sell me. It’s positively intoxicating. Episode 16 was a slower episode of In a Good Way, yet the drama continues to command my entire attention with it’s lovely storytelling that deals with happy moments and growing pains all with … Continue reading →
Is it only a few more hours until episode 16 of In A Good Way? I only survived the week long wait by making myself extremely busy, because busy people don’t have time to count down the days, hours, and minutes until this perfect delicious drama delivers another dose of cuteness. I’m sure episode 16 will have tons of cute, … Continue reading →
Episode 2 of Bride of the Century dipped a toe in the well of love (me loving this drama, I mean), but episode 3 opened the floodgates and it’s full blown love love love now! I watched this episode with a giant grin on my face and everything is clicking like on a perfectly run assembly line. This story is … Continue reading →
It’s amusing to watch how the main leads have really struck a chord with the readers, so much so that I’ve seen sadness over Jing leaving and clamoring for more Xiang Liu who hasn’t shown up for two chapters. Rest assured all three male leads are here to stay, but Lost You Forever is still first and foremost Xiao Yao’s … Continue reading →
Following along with the filming of the latest drama adaptation of the wuxia novel Return of the Condor Heroes has been an endless well of WTF mirth. First producer Yu Zheng casts the least suitable leading lady Xiaolongnu in of all time by selecting Michelle Chen. Then he proceeds to photo shop half of her off in official drama stills … Continue reading →
