So I separate good looking and can act, it’s idea if a star has both assets but one without the other is pretty common especially in C-ent. My personal litmus is whether the performance is at least entertaining for me, but usually when a star can’t act it just isn’t fun to watch. This year in 2023 hotly elevated female … Continue reading →
Can I like this boy even more, it’s hard but he keeps on impressing me with his grit and determination. On the heels of Dylan Wang‘s modern office romance drama Only for Love, which is basically Fifty Shades of Grey without the kinky sex but the same level of brain dead workplace “plot”, the only good thing to come out … Continue reading →
C-actress Yang Zi isn’t just a famous child actor turned into even more famous adult actress and a top liuliang starlet in her own right, she also has the reputation of being a husband maker. That’s a phrase given to wives who after marrying a man he becomes even more successful. It’s kinda shitty in this day and age to … Continue reading →
Okay where I can donate money to make this happen like RIGHT NOW. Because the pairing of Park Bo Young and Jung Hae In in a rom-com seems straight out of fan fiction that I’m not even creative enough to write but will forever thank the drama gods if it existed. She’s a rom-com queen in both dramas and movies … Continue reading →
Well this is a legit competition and I’m glad to see it was a decision made that went down to the final selection. Last week it was announced that Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei would headline the C-drama adaptation of Legend of the Female General based on the novel. She’s been leveling up as the female lead in one drama … Continue reading →
I am ALWAYS going to be in the own voice dub camp, even with some stars whose voice I don’t like because it’s too high pitched or squeaky I still think it adds authenticity and uniqueness. Dylan Wang is reportedly a C-star who not only does his own voice but actively wants to do it and makes time for going … Continue reading →
So the promos for Disney+ drama Vigilante is all on the shoulders of the cast other than male lead Nam Joo Hyuk, who has enlisted in the army earlier this year. Never fear though because it’s a packed cast with Yoo Ji Tae, Lee Joon Hyuk, and Kim So Jin, adapted from the same name webtoon and arriving as the … Continue reading →
I don’t know if what makes Wonderland of Love work THIS HARD for me is a chicken (the leads and their acting) or the egg (the directing and the script) but goodness is this the most unexpected C-drama to emerge from the recent scrum of premieres to grab me by the gut and heart completely. There is When the Wind … Continue reading →
I feel like I’m in a stare down with MBC and it keeps calling my bluff that I will abandon this drama. Wednesday rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog only has 14 episodes and airs once a week and already MBC has pre-empted it once and will do so again this week. Episode 5 will have to wait … Continue reading →
Heeeeeelp me! There are so many dramas going on right now all of a sudden and I am so in over my head lol. Adding to the glut of K-dramas and C-dramas is period revenge and second chance drama Story of Kunning Palace, which was thisclose to airing earlier this year in May and decided to make its abrupt arrival … Continue reading →
So last week saw two doses of Song Kang drama previews, the romance laden My Demon and the death and destruction laden Sweet Home 2. I need a palate cleanser after the teaser for SH2 and what better than hottie demon Song Kang bickering cutely with haughty heiress Kim Yoo Jung. I love the new stills that hew closely to … Continue reading →
It’s a good last few days in C-ent as there are now more interesting C-dramas released to check out and fill the late fall void. Tencent premiered Wonderland of Love with Xu Kai and Jing Tian doing their best Romeo and Juliet in war torn Chinese kingdoms impression with likely lots of fighting standing in for flirting. Both are dealing … Continue reading →
So my love for screenwriter Park Hye Ryun is basically contrary to mainstream lol, I’m so invested in Pinocchio, While You Were Sleeping, and Start-Up, but her bigger hits are I Hear Your Voice and now Castaway Diva which I am enjoying but not rabid about. Her formula is still at work here to great success, an engaging and emotionally … Continue reading →
