This is totally a win-win for all involved but does take away a bit from the drama leads on premiere day. Top drama C-actress Zhao Li Ying has a guest starring role in the just premiered iQiyi xianxia C-drama The Unclouded Soul and immediately she’s rocketed up the search and buzz charts above leads Tan Song Yun and Hou Ming … Continue reading →
I think the gumiho and human romance K-drama has hit double digits or at least close enough with the addition next month of SBS drama No Tail to Tell (Human From Today). I can count watching at least half a dozen myself and there are smatterings of it built into other dramas, but this Korean folklore and superstitious myth of … Continue reading →
So filming has been underway for modern romance C-drama On My Way, which has a much cuter but quite a mouthful original Chinese title of 致我那菜市场的白月光 or Zhi Wo Na Cai Shi Chang De Bai Yue Guang. The original titles translates as “To My Marketplace White Moonlight” which means he’s her ideal guy that she met in a marketplace with … Continue reading →

C-ent insiders are saying that filming is confirmed to kick off mid-January in a few weeks for romance modern C-drama Confession (or Gao Bai) starring Wang Xing Yue and … Continue reading →
So I think this will be the last big C-drama release for 2025, arriving just after Christmas and in time for a New Year’s holiday break binge. Youku has confirmed the release of xianxia romance C-drama The Unclouded Soul (逍遥 Xiao Yao) starring Tan Song Yun and Hou Ming Hao for December 27th which is this coming weekend.

The return of C-actress Song Zu Er is definitely one of the big stories out of C-ent this year in 2025 and one of the positive ones with so many negative things that happened in the industry. Her two aired drama The Demon Hunter’s Romance and The Prisoner of Beauty were both hits and her performance garnered solid reviews for … Continue reading →
I did a double take when I saw this casting news because both stars are names I’ve not seen in awhile in recent year K-dramas. This is totally an old school casting and in a sports drama to boot, feels like it could be attempting another Hot Stove League. News reports say that Kim Rae Won and UEE have been … Continue reading →
I’m so glad this drama is on Netflix, or even cable would be okay. As long as its not on terrestrial television in South Korea at least I can tune out the howls of outrage from any K-netizen that wants to protest less than perfect Kim Sun Ho back on the small screen. With Netflix airing Can This Love be … Continue reading →
The newlyweds were definitely out of a K-drama in visuals, and it’s no surprise since the real life marrieds are top stars in their work life. K-stars Kim Woo Bin and Shin Mina tied the knot this past weekend in Seoul and so many famous other stars were in attendance the arrivals rivaled a movie premiere. Their wedding was non-public … Continue reading →

It’s a WWII drama set in Macau and … Continue reading →
There’s only less than two weeks left before year end caps this interesting 2025 year and in terms of dramas there may still be one that will premiere that I’m interested in. C-ent scheduling rumor the last few weeks had it that Tencent will air Shine on Me (骄阳似我 Jiao Yang Si Wo) at the end of December, and then … Continue reading →
So the wedding of top stars Shin Mina and Kim Woo Bin was private, i.e. no press coverage and the couple would not pose for pictures. But they did release one official picture of their wedding photo shoot and sometimes one is enough because it’s beyond beautiful and just chef’s kiss perfect. Their matching open smiles, the slight turn to … Continue reading →
I was worried that the back-to-back soul swap sageuk airing of K-dramas Moon River on MBC transitioning to To My Beloved Thief on KBS might steal the latter’s thunder by being a second to arrive problem. But right now with Moon River ending this weekend and Beloved Thief ramping up to its first week of January premiere I’m feeling like … Continue reading →
