It’s only midway through the airing of When Destiny Brings the Demon but the opening Douban ratings are already out, indicating a lot of voters which makes sense for it being adapted from a popular novel. It got a low 5.5 which is more par for the course with dramas of this genre, to compare with other recent less than … Continue reading →
I’ll be surprised if this C-drama does blockbuster ratings but it does have a strong IP source material and the issue viewers may have are the leads. Youku will release xianxia C-drama When Destiny Brings the Demon starring Chen Fei Yu and Wang Ying Lu this Saturday August 16th. It’s based on the novel Offering Salted Fish to Master and … Continue reading →
It’s being called combo of the worsts by C-netizens, and it doesn’t help that one of the two looks absolutely terribly at delivering on the fashion element. Chen Fei Yu and Yang Chao Yue were spotted at the Balenciaga show in Paris this week and seeing them in one frame is sending C-netz into a tizzy of mockery and embarrassment. … Continue reading →
Last weeks Tencent Drama Festival showcased over a dozen to-come C-dramas so it’s taking me awhile to catch up and post about the ones that interest me. I’ll get to it one by one, and the next one that looks good to me is xianxia C-drama Love Beyond the Grave. It’s the first high profile big budget xianxia that doesn’t … Continue reading →
I don’t know what Youku was thinking greenlighting a C-drama with a nepo baby male lead and a female lead with negative rizz to headline but the results speak for itself. Modern romance Eat Run Love with Chen Fei Yu and Zhuang Da Fei wrapped it’s totally underwhelming viewership run and slinks off to the annals of utterly forgettable dramas. … Continue reading →
I swear this drama seemed to be in production for at least half a year or longer for it to have just wrapped right now, or maybe I’m just misremembering since there was so much online hullabaloo when it first started what with ugly costume and makeup allegations and in fighting between the two leads fandom already. Good times, good … Continue reading →

The months long filming is reportedly close to a wrap for xianxia C-drama Love Beyond the Grave. Starring Dilraba Dilmurat and Chen Fei Yu, the drama got way more coverage for her fans being upset with her so-called “unattractive costumes, hair, and makeup” and lodging complaints and a full scale protest.

Zam, those hair horns really are ready for official debut lol. Xianxia C-drama Love Beyond the Grave is currently midway through filming but still managed to drum off the first official character posters for Tencent to showcase. Starring Dilraba Dilmurat, Chen Fei Yu, Wei Zhe Ming, and Sun Li, the drama seems so dark and dreary, a combination of the … Continue reading →
So complaining by fans does work lol, but at least gets some adjustments made. Fans of Dilraba Dilmurat went on an angry online attack last month when the first filming pictures came out from the set of xianxia C-drama Love Beyond the Grave showing her with heavy makeup and overly ornate costumes and excessive accessories. Her fans were pissed at … Continue reading →
This drama within a drama is totally more interesting for me than I think the actual drama will be. It’s going on three weeks now of complaints from mostly Dilraba Dilmurat and her fandom about the unattractive and cheap looking costuming (hair, makeup, and outfits) for the xianxia drama Love Beyond the Grave. To be fair to the drama, the … Continue reading →
