There is a reason I hate buffets, most of the time it’s quantity over quality but even when it’s all quality I still feel like I can’t enjoy stuff because I’ve got too much of it to consume. It feels like a buffet of C-dramas right now and yet another one has premiered with the arrival on June 26th of … Continue reading →
There is a lot of chatter and speculation around modern C-drama Love’s Ambition. It was rumored to be released by Tencent in late June but now will move into early July.

So the bullying allegations against K-actress Go Min Si that emerged last month in May during the airing of her rom-com drama Tastefully Yours has the first professional change in her career. She was set to be the female lead in the Hong Sisters next fantasy romance drama Grand Galaxy Hotel opposite male lead Lee Do Hyun, but will now … Continue reading →
So the recently aired xianxia C-drama Feud left me massively frustrated but at the plot and less at the leads. I still have a soft spot for Bai Lu and saw that she really tried hard and mostly delivered, at times it did feel like she was playing a prior performance I’ve seen before before but it also felt like … Continue reading →
The most likely to be a hit C-drama among the four premiering within the last ten days of June 2025 this month is here, and I’m talking about The Princess’s Gambit premiering today June 25th.

Viewers have eyes and we can see onscreen and offscreen star chemistry (or lack thereof) clear as day. So from the first trailer released of Tencent period romance C-drama Chasing Jade with Zhang Ling He and Tian Xi Wei last month it’s clear the leads have loads of chemistry in character. But this week as the two attended a Tencent … Continue reading →
This may be one of the most expected developments considering what has (or has not happened) since top actress Jeon Ji Hyun signed with her agency Ieum Hashtag in 2022 three years ago. She has done only one drama the Disney+ series Tempest which hasn’t even aired yet. This past week she was in Europe looking her most glamourous self … Continue reading →
The new promos for Legend of the Female General bodes well for the insider chatter that Tencent will release it in August 2025. That’s less than two months from now, but six months longer than the originally scheduled February release that was scuttled due to the scandal and alleged misconduct by the supporting male lead. He’s since been AI-face swapped … Continue reading →

The leads are Song Zu Er and Chen Xin Hai, as rumored from the last few weeks. And the vibe is very demure and sweet … Continue reading →
I like to think Gong Hyo Jin accepted that horrifyingly bad K-drama When the Stars Gossip solely to pass the time filming while her husband Kevin Oh was doing his military service. I still can’t understand how she read the script and thought it was a good story otherwise. But it’s in the past now and her future is back … Continue reading →
Their first drama together got only mid reception and reviews but both have since become more popular so this reunion project is a promising possibility. C-ent casting is saying that period C-drama Xing Zhi Wan 行止晚 is now in serious talks with Zhou Ye as the female lead and she has indicated strong likelihood of accepting. The male lead has … Continue reading →
I have no one to blame but myself for watching all of Feud. I don’t like male lead Zeng Shun Xi and xianxia dramas are not my typical jam, and Bai Lu alone who I love is never enough for me to watch her dramas solely for her. And yet it happened, this was one perplexing drama I could not … Continue reading →
