Heart. Broken. Okay, maybe I was just joking on that. Or maybe not, it’s hard to tell since I’m both crying and smiling at the same time upon hearing the news that my Zai Zai is married. Yes, real life married and not just cinematic married. Vic Zhou quietly tied the knot with his long time girlfriend TW-actress Reen Yu on … Continue reading →
Some may think C-netizens are harsh but I find them equal opportunity snarkers. They don’t riff only on foreign things, they are just as candid when it comes to pointing out the crappy stuff coming out of China.

Recently the spotlight is shining on supporting role K-actress Hong Soo Ah and rising model-turned-actor Lee Soo Hyuk. I’ll leave it for folks to make their … Continue reading →
Taiwan got a double dose of Hallyu candy this week, with Song Seung Heon and Yoona both making short but sweet stops on the island. This probably isn’t all that newsworthy other than I like them both and they happen to be looking exceptionally pretty at their respective events. Yoona was there for a H:Connect event as a brand spokesmodel, … Continue reading →
I never get tired of checking in on Liu Shi Shi and Nicky Wu, the now married costars who were the heart and soul of why the C-drama adaptation of Bu Bu Jing Xin (Startling with Each Step) was as unexpectedly good as it turned out. Compared to the extravagant weddings of fellow celebs like Huang Xiaoming–Angelababy or Jay Chou–Hannah … Continue reading →
In an impressive display of professionalism, Ariel Lin showed up this past weekend at a promo event for a body care product rocking what is best described as attire better suited for a cosplay event.
