You know a drama has been filming for quite a long time if both leads manage to celebrate their birthday on the set. Office Girls has been filming for over half a year now, and first Roy Qiu celebrated turning 30, now he’s followed by his leading lady Alice Ke celebrating turning 27. I can’t image a better way to … Continue reading →
SETTV really knows how to cross promote. On the upcoming New Year’s special cooking program, the leading ladies of Office Girls and its follow up drama Walking Forward Towards Love gathered together for a PK cooking battle. So cute. Alice Ke and Tia Li were on one team versus Tammy Chen and Amber Kuo. When asked who could actually cook, … Continue reading →
While the rest of the Sunday night competition drama casts are off celebrating Christmas since their dramas wrapped awhile ago, the cast of Office Girls is working through Christmas Eve and continuing into Christmas day. As such, the production decided to do a white elephant gift exchange with the gift value limited at NT200 (equivalent to about $7). Everyone thinks … Continue reading →
Kyaaaaaaa, they are so ridiculously gorgeous together! It kills me to see Alice Ke styled so no-nonsense for her character in Office Girls when she’s such a stunner in real life. Nice to see her dolled up outside of OG. Heh, if Zi Qi ever saw Xing Ren like this he might expire on the spot. Alice and her co-star … Continue reading →
The cast of the hottest TW-drama at this moment Office Girls held a fan meeting yesterday in Taipei that was apparently sold out in minutes and had people flying in from other parts of Asia. It was a very casual event with the cast playing games, discussing the drama and filming, and signing posters for all the attendees. I want! … Continue reading →
Party in the USA! Er, oops, wrong song. I mean Party in Taipei! Apple Daily held a star-studded party yesterday, not quite sure it was for any reason other than to get all the stars together for some fun times. The Golden Bell Awards is tomorrow, so maybe this was a pre-party of sorts? Either way, there were so many … Continue reading →
Wahhhh, could they BE any cuter? Roy Qiu, Alice Ke, and the cast of Office Girls make good on Roy’s promise to wear a dinosaur outfit and drive a Go-Kart around should the ratings for the drama break 5. Rather than let Roy fulfill his promise alone, everyone tagged along and kept him company. Awwww, the camaraderie on that set … Continue reading →
Without Alice Ke and Roy Qui, Office Girls would be a bust. I mean it. As much as I’m loving the drama, these two elevate every single line of dialogue and animate every scene they are in. OG is such a guilty pleasure for me, I find myself snarfing randomly whenever I say an English phrase that Zi Qi tosses … Continue reading →
Of all the three leading men in the heated Sunday night competition in Taiwan dramas, it’s hands down Roy Qiu that’s getting the most career boost out of his role as bottom-dwelling chaebol heir Qin Zi Qi in Office Girls. Peter Ho is gasp-inducing and sublime in Ring Ring Bell and Bolin Chen is understated and a perfect foil to … Continue reading →
Sundays in Taiwan is now owned by Office Girls, which hit 4.6 in ratings this past weekend and I wouldn’t be surprised if it breaks 5 this Sunday. It’s that good. While In Time With You is the superior drama in every aspect, OG is the drama that simultaneously pushes every one of my happy and squee buttons. It’s funny … Continue reading →
Dramas oftentimes are not received equally by the local viewing population and the overseas brethren. It’s easy for each side to deride the other for having bad taste, but it’s not really that easy to explain. It’s more like people have different tastes, and that’s a good thing. Last year’s K-drama ratings champion Baker King Kim Tak Gu barely made … Continue reading →
I won’t be around to check out episode 1 of the upcoming Office Girls with Roy Qiu, Alice Ke, James Wen, and Tia Li, which is the drama that will be taking over Drunken to Love You’s spot on Sundays on TTV. But I wouldn’t be posting about it if I didn’t really enjoy all the previews that I’ve seen. … Continue reading →
All good things must come to an end, and with that said, next week comes the grand finale of Drunken to Love You which means Office Girls (小資女孩向前衝) premieres in two weeks. This drama flew completely under my radar, mostly because the only actor in the cast I’m a fan of did all C-dramas for the last two years so I wasn’t … Continue reading →
