Awwww, I finally get to use a picture of Jiu Ye with Yu Er. Too bad it’s due to some bad stuff befalling Yu Er that (1) she sorta brought on herself because she couldn’t look the other way, and (2) might be more deadly and devious than she ever considered. I think this is the chapter of Da Mo … Continue reading →
Since news broke last week that Roy Qiu had a picture of Tang Yan in his race car as his good luck goddess, a slew of inside sources and sleuthing have emerged to pretty much confirm that the two are likely dating. And have been dating for the past year. Awww, another real life couple have emerged for the RL-shipping … Continue reading →
Anyone missing some Lee Min Ho? I don’t mean the hot new one that is about to cute-me-to-death in Rooftop Prince, but the original flavor Lee Min Ho. Oh yeah, and Yoona as well, because the come as a package for the latest set of Eider sportswear pictures. I actually like these more than the previous ones since Yoona’s is switching it … Continue reading →
I remain completely enamored of Fondant Garden. Aside from Park Jung Min, who actually isn’t all that bad either, the other three leads are just wonderful to watch. I like the characters and their relationships, and the story and execution is progressing so smoothly that I don’t feel bored or annoyed. But what’s fueling my rabid love for this drama … Continue reading →
Okay, okay, I’ve decided to be super nice today. Here’s a quick character guide to the folks in Da Mo Yao and its somewhat sequel Yun Zhong Ge. I’ve kept it short and sweet, since discussing each character too much gives away plot points that might not otherwise be as clear. While DMY was pretty straightforward on who are the … Continue reading →
I feel like I’m doing a public service announcement, since I’m not interested in Absolute Boyfriend, the TW-version of the manga Zettai Kareshi, but I figure someone out there might be. The drama, starring Gu Hye Sun and Jiro Wang, has landed the air date on GTV following the end of Skip Beat. So GTV is following up one J-manga … Continue reading →
So I also got my third main male lead cast, Huang Xiaoming as Liu Bing Yi (aka Liu Xun). His tendency to over-emote with the crazy eyes will definitely come in handy in the latter half of this novel. But I think his arrogance and carefree vibe is perfect for Liu Bing Yi. I confess that the first time I … Continue reading →
Gosh, everyone is so worried about Yu Er now that Huo Qu Bing is off to war. I can’t say that Li Yan isn’t up to her tricks, but I can say everything is always more complicated than just simply that. Yu Er doesn’t have one enemy, she has many, and likely her enemies are also fighting each other. I … Continue reading →
Presenting the press conference for The King 2 Hearts, where puppy has gone back to being a puppy. Lee Seung Gi in a frumpy ill-fitting suit and a fuddy hairstyle once again returns to his cute boyish incarnation. Ha Ji Won has visibly lost weight to play this role, but she still looks healthy, and her figure is insane in … Continue reading →
I always like to start off with the good stuff. The latest magazine shoots for Hu Ge and Liu Shi Shi are just too beautiful for me not to share. Especially since Shi Shi’s are all taken in Paris last week when she went there to attend some fashion shows and other couture related good stuff. I think they are … Continue reading →
You don’t need to have read Da Mo Yao to read Yun Zhong Ge, only that the tiny bits of the throwaway references might not be as relatable. But it does help to read up on your early Han history, gaining some perspective into the political machines of the era when Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che was deciding succession … Continue reading →
*Speechless* I was literally slack-jawed for a good two minutes after I saw the latest pictorial of Cheryl Yang for Vogue Taiwan. This woman has graced the cover of Taiwan Vogue innumerable times, and she deserves every single cover. There is not a single model in Taiwan with her range, and as an actress she is as good if not better … Continue reading →
Wow, I think my ovaries just exploded. Metaphorically, of course. There is just something about a really smoking hot guy being all warm and cuddly with a baby that turns me into mush. Add to that said guy is Roy Qiu, and I’m pretty much toast, with a side of bacon and eggs. Since wrapping Office Girls, Roy has been … Continue reading →
