When I heard the male lead names for the upcoming C-drama Noble Lady (Gui Nu 贵女) I was like “who’s that?” so don’t feel bad not knowing him. C-actor Xin Yun Lai, who looks like K-actor Woo Do Hwan IMO, will be the male lead opposite top billed Chen Du Ling for the drama which in recent months was best … Continue reading →
I really like how Dylan Wang and his agency is mapping out his career, including attending this year’s 2024 NBA All-Star game and playing in the celeb game. He loves the NBA and is really so charming and earnest on ever big stages. This week C-ent casting says his agency is working hard to get him a supporting role in … Continue reading →
So this C-drama looks like a hot mess but at least its airable without any problematic cast members or in-fighting.

Awwwww, I love this cameo reunion and it’s also an inversion of their prior roles. Award winning chameleon actor Oh Jung Se will be making a guest appearance in this weekend’s tvN drama Queen of Tears which will reunite him with his former onscreen costar Kim Soo Hyun.

I had to double check the date after hearing this news, it is indeed the year 2024 and not 2004. Twenty years ago it would absolutely be the norm for K-pop stars to apologize to their fans for their personal lives but one would imagine in this day and age this groveling would not exist. Unfortunately for Karina of Aespa, … Continue reading →
So it’s a relief that this cast for the C-drama Kill My Sins is basically solid across the board and has no problematic stars in the mix.

Okay, I’m old enough to remember when this very idea was done before and how it rocketed a certain actor to stratospheric heights. Cue Stephen Chow in the eternal classic that is HK-movie Fight Back to School and we all just want to see an elite cop pretending to be a high school student don’t we.

So by all accounts C-starlet Yang Chao Yue was not a very good singer/idol, and I can attest to the same by all accounts she’s a terrible actress. Which leaves the third leg of stardom the fashion and CF industry perhaps her best bet and her agency has kicked off trying to make her happen there. She was in Paris … Continue reading →
