Wedding bells are a-ringing soon for star couple Michelle Chen and Chen Xiao, the two famously falling in love in real life after playing iconic reel period couple of Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu in the wuxia novel Return of the Condor Heroes.

Nothing looks as good as having a hottie doting fiancee by one side, and the star couple of Chen Xiao and Michelle Chen were definitely the major standout at the just held Weibo Awards in China. I feel like K-ent holds its awards at year end whereas C-ent holds it in January, before the lunar new year end. Weibo is … Continue reading →
There are so many completed filming C-dramasthat aired his year in 2015. A bunch were front loaded into January and February around the lunar new year holiday vacation season but the one I’m looking forward to the most was tentatively scheduled to start the summer season off with a June airing, too bad that didn’t happen. The drama is called … Continue reading →
Now this is the kind of romantic cheesy that I love, personally tailored and meaningful for the two lovebirds involved. C-actor Chen Xiao and TW-actress Michelle Chen have been dating for about 8 months, with a romance that blossomed on the set of the latest drama adaptation of wuxia novel Return of the Condor Heroes. They played the leads who … Continue reading →
C-ent wedding watch has been on top star couple Fan Bing Bing and Li Chen, for good reason based on their marriage ready age and how sweetly public they’ve been with the year long relationship. Another star couple might beat them to the gun and do so in a speed dating rate if the rumors are to be believed. Romance … Continue reading →
Sometimes a delay ends up yielding unexpectedly good results, and that looks to be the case with the arrival of the drama adaptation of Yun Zhong Ge (Song of the Clouds). The novel from writer Tong Hua is one of my favorites even if it’s also the hardest to read in terms of the angst. It’s probably second only to … Continue reading →
This is certainly happy news for some people, who I’ll venture to guess are the sliver of drama fans who liked the latest widely panned adaptation of wuxia novel Return of the Condor Heroes. This drama version was called Romance of the Condor Heroes 2014 and starred the perfectly cast C-actor Chen Xiao as the male lead with the near … Continue reading →
Marriage isn’t slowing down Ariel Lin in the least, she already announced that she wasn’t quitting the entertainment industry after becoming a wife but it was surprising to learn that she had been filming starting last December when she was in the midst of tying the knot. The upcoming Korean-Taiwan-Chinese co-production movie called Mysterious Family stars Taiwanese actress Ariel with … Continue reading →
I don’t recall any producer/screenwriter who gets as much hate as Yu Zheng does in China, and frankly it’s all well-deserved. He hasn’t churned out a single watchable drama yet his dramas keep bringing in the ratings. Last week C-ent was abuzz with the biggest news concerning Yu Zheng’s currently airing Gong 3, a drama that even when I watched … Continue reading →
The nth drama adaptation of Return of the Condor Heroes (this one is going to have the 2014 year appended to it to distinguish it from the previous versions) is almost done filming and after four months I can say the long nightmare is wrapping to a close. Producer and troll Yu Zheng has been steadily releasing stills from the … Continue reading →
It’s a good day to wake up by spotting some pictures I missed from the December 2013 issue of L’Officiel Hommes China featuring one of the hottest rising male C-actors around. Chen Xiao is currently filming the Yu Zheng-produced version of Return of the Condor Heroes, and it’s a Herculean feat indeed to actually make this gorgeous man wholly unattractive … Continue reading →
Last week was the first ever Sina hosted Weibo Night 2013 to hand out awards to C-celebrities who have lit up China’s most popular online social networking service akin to a combination Facebook and Twitter. Even among a bevy of popular stars it was hands down the joint appearance of recently gone public couple of Nicky Wu and Liu Shi … Continue reading →
Somewhere in an alternate universe, drama producer Yu Zheng is still filming his massacre drama adaptation of the wuxia novel Return of the Condor Heroes. It’s been seven years since the last major remake starring now top C-movie stars Huang Xiaoming as Yang Guo and Crystal Liu as Xiaolongnu. I’d be happy if we went another seven without a remake … Continue reading →
