Last week a new C-drama kicked off filming and it’s the modern romance Genius Girlfriend with Tian Xi Wei and Hu Yi Tian. So far nothing much to note other than the height difference is going to look great onscreen and hopefully these two have chemistry with each other. There is a billing fight behind the scenes, but fight indicates … Continue reading →
Streaming platform Tencent made a decisive decision to replace second female lead Eleanor Lee (Lee Kai Xin) in its big male lead C-drama The Journey of Legend after her alleged insulting Chinese people and entertainment industry scandal exploded in May three months ago. That’s why the reshoot with C-actress Yang Xi Zi has finished and the AI face swap post … Continue reading →
It’s now almost a week since C-actress Zhao Lu Si started to livestream on social media platform Xiaohongshu (Red Note) in her attempt to terminate her contract with her agency Galaxy Kuyu. Her livestreams have huge viewership numbers and whatever she’s eating, wearing, using, recommending is gets a boost in sales. Her conversations range from accusing her agency of mistreating … Continue reading →
Never change C-ent, haha, always jumping on a hot bandwagon and doubling down on what worked. C-ent casting rumor this week has Li Lan Di and Ao Rui Peng in talks for a new iQiyi modern romance drama My Queen My Rules. If they accept it will be another fast reunion of popular drama CPs in the recent year, after … Continue reading →
Well this mini drama version of The Prisoner of Beauty is certainly going for spicy all out, at least for the female lead lol. Filming has started for Yield to You starring Caesar Wu and Yue Yu Ting, and he’s got the general look down but she’s straight up rocking a courtesan look rather than the sheltered noble daughter raised … Continue reading →
There’s a very fun casting melon that came up this week and I for one would love to see this pairing. Song Zu Er has been in talks for the Tencent Republic era period C-drama Ah Zhi Ah Zhi adapted from the same name novel and now the platform wants Dylan Wang as the male lead. If he joins the … Continue reading →
Yesterday was D-Day for those of us (memememe!) waiting for the premiere of Legend of the Female General, adapted from a novel by Qian Shan Cha Ke titled Rebirth of a Star General. Tencent had to delay the drama for six months due to the scandal with a male supporting lead and then filming his scenes with a different actor … Continue reading →
I don’t know if these two ladies are meant to be this always tied together in recent years (two times each have had dramas premiered the same time), but here it goes again. This week Zhao Lu Si is topping all C-ent buzz for her contract dispute with her agency Galaxy Kuyu and trying to terminate it. At the very … Continue reading →
C-netizens are right, this is the must see TV of the summer and it’s just a sad state of affairs all around to get to this point.

So it looks like the WIFTY reunion will not be happening. Recently it was discussed that Tencent was going to reunite the When I Fly Towards You cuties Zhang Miao Yi and Zhou Yi Ran for its upcoming period romance C-drama Wrong Era. That melon sounded like basically a lock since Zhou Yi Ran is Tencent’s prince and this is … Continue reading →
Well the timing of this couldn’t be worse with the discourse going on right now with the female lead. The production company of C-drama Almost Lover this week submitted the drama for airing approval and it’s been cut down from the already slim 24-episodes to only 14-episodes. I’m not even sure there is a coherent drama left in that, what … Continue reading →
The Zhao Lu Si accusations against her agency feel like watching a family feud played out in public and it’s hella awkward. The she said/they said has now begun as her agency released a formal statement today basically saying it’s been managing her career with care and attention this whole time, including her illness period, and that her allegations come … Continue reading →
This has been brewing for awhile and Zhao Lu Si may have telegraphed it when earlier this week she removed a link to her agency on her SNS bio. This weekend she went public with a long Weibo post blasting her agency for what has transpired (from her view) over the last 8 months. She was ill and needed to … Continue reading →
