I can’t say this is a surprise, the pressure to be thin in entertainment is across the board in every single country in every medium. But for C-actress Song Zu Er, already every skinny and petite to begin with, her latest look at a Valentine brand media even this week has everyone buzzing with concern. C-netizens are calling her “a … Continue reading →
I’m not interested when Xiao Zhan does serious or homespun type dramas so this is a very exciting pick for his next project that looks cool. He’s started filming the big budget C-drama The Infinite 10 Days (十日终焉 Shi Ri Zhong Yan) based on the same name novel. The characters wake up one day in the Land of the End … Continue reading →
I’m not sure how this pairing would work onscreen but it’s definitely not an idol casting. iQiyi has a new drama that just confirmed the leads and will start filming next week at the end of April. It’s called A Touch of Green (雾里青 Wu Li Qing) and stars Li Xian withZhang Jing Yi. The female lead has been in … Continue reading →
April is nearing the close and no C-drama is worth talking about that arrived this month other than the totally under the radar small budget modern romance and workplace C-drama The Epoch of Miyu (Mi Yu Ji 蜜语纪). Starring Wallace Chung and Zhu Zhu, it’s tailored for adult audiences rather than the younger generation preferring the sweet first love romance … Continue reading →
I’m a little bemused and perplexed that the whole “Foundation General Gate” with Zhang Ling He in Pursuit of Jade got as big as it did and has had additional real life impact that it spawned. Recall the criticism lobbed at his character for looking too flower boy when playing a general in PoJ, complete with full face of makeup … Continue reading →
C-actor Song Wei Long has reportedly landed on his next project and it’s an interesting one that also had other actors in the running. The drama is titled Huo Wang (火旺) or Blazing Fire and is adapted from a thriller xianxia C-drama about a high school student who may or may not be mentally unwell in the modern world who … Continue reading →
No. Just no. I need these two to individually and together take a time out. You know when a teacher tells an overeager student to sit in the corner and just read quietly, it’s feeling like that talk needs to go out to Meng Zi Yi and Li Yun Rui. This week the C-ent casting rumor is saying, and with … Continue reading →
So the Cha Eun Woo alleged tax evasion scandal has come to a close earlier this month in April with his agency confirming payment of any owed taxes and it looks like he won’t be cancelled for it. Netflix has announced today that the superhero comedy K-drama The WONDERfools starring Park Eun Bin and Cha Eun Woo is confirmed to … Continue reading →
With March 2026 over and the only drama to do well being Pursuit of Jade, with Love Beyond the Grave, Veil of Shadows, and Rebirth in varying stages of meh to flop, April is now midway done and there feels like a lull just waiting for a grippy drama to capture the latent attention. That could fall to Liang Chen … Continue reading →
A new casting melon that is juicy is circulating this week in C-ent. C-actorWu Lei just filmed S+ budget period wuxia C-drama The One (Chinese title 劍來 Jian Lai or Sword Comes) and it’s his first drama in three years. I didn’t expect him to be ready to do another but reportedly he’s considering a S+ budget modern romance C-drama … Continue reading →
So this is a female lead name I haven’t heard in awhile. C-actress Yang Chao Yue may be making her female lead comeback soon as she’s in talks for the period wuxia C-drama Jian Ge Wen Ling with basically confirmed male lead Li Yun Rui. It’s a big male lead IP based on the same name novel so with Li … Continue reading →
I still think a Zhao Lu Si and Dylan Wang pairing is perfect and inevitable, but also one that gets mentioned often with drama productions and has yet to come to pass. So with this one I will also take it with a giant grain of salt. Zhao Lu Si’s next drama remains more and more likely the xianxia period … Continue reading →
The end of March saw the arrival of Love Beyond the Grave, a classic type of xianxia C-drama with demons, gods, the afterlife, and a mortal and immortal romance between leads Dilrama Dilmurat and Chen Fei Yu. It’s based on a novel so the structure of the story is there without much worry that it will go off the rails, … Continue reading →
