Everyone, and I mean everyone, has been talking about the … Continue reading →
Chinese actor Hu Ge and I: we are buddies. No, I don’t actually know him, but my affection for him as an actor and an entertainer is that of a good buddy. I think he’s a very solid actor, and continuing to improve with each successive project.

Zhong Wu Yen aired episode 11 yesterday, and whether the drama ends up being 14, 17, or 21 episodes (TW dramas lengths are notoriously hard to pinpoint), it has aired more than enough for me to make a substantive assessment of its … Continue reading →
