But on the cusp of the final arc and last ten episodes releasing this week, the drama over … Continue reading →
The Princess Agent sequel drama Rebirth has now gone through what I call every stage of feels, from thinking it’s a bad idea all the way now to quite liking the preview and looking forward to it.

So the Tencent period C-drama The One (Chinese title Jian Lai 剑来 which means Sword Comes) has been filming since the end of 2025 and is reportedly close to wrapping production within the month.

This week there was a big rumor in C-ent that Zhang Ling He, thanks to doing well with recently premiered Chasing Jade, would be … Continue reading →
I like the direction Yang Zi has taken the last three years with her career but not every pick is a winner. Her last drama the serious Born to be Alive set in the Tibetan plains about environmental conservation ended up with less than stellar viewership, reportedly due to the darker theme and too serious pacing. She will reportedly head … Continue reading →
So period C-drama Inverted Fate was reportedly going to Zhao Lu Si late last year as the top billed female lead.
