So I haven’t heard any credible melons on when Tencent will premiere Guardians of the Dafeng but with lunar new year holidays underway it may come during the next big holiday time period since this is one of the higher profile dramas on deck. The drama reached 1 million reservations last November and now has broken 2 million reservations so … Continue reading →
The first big C-ent party of 2024 was this weekend with the 2023 Weibo Night celebration that brought out nearly all the popular stars in the industry. Yang Zi and Zhu Yi Long took home the top awards Weibo Queen and King but it’s a popularity award of course. The rest of the awards all fete the stars with notable … Continue reading →
So the week before Christmas all was not quite well in certain corners of the C-ent universe. There were talks recently of Dylan Wang joining Dilraba Dilmurat in a C-drama titled Love on the Turquoise Land (枭起青壤) where she would remain top billing as she has been in multiple dramas now for the past few years. Then came news that … Continue reading →
This week Tencent held its own 2023 Tencent Video All Star Awards to celebrate the actors and actresses who did a Tencent project this year. It’s like the network drama years in South Korea so all attendees are there basically known he/she will get an award. And there were a lot of awards with very creative names so recipients could … Continue reading →
So this beef goes back to earlier this year during the filming of period C-drama Hero Legends starring Cheng Yi. Apparently the production started filming before getting the first approval from the authorities which is a big no no and reportedly the production was shut down and fined after being reported to the authorities. Cheng Yi fans claim it’s Dylan … Continue reading →
The first trailer is out for Guardians of the Dafeng and I….I just can’t with this. It’s so absurd and not in an immediately endearing way, though I get what it’s going for. This drama preview has the tone of a classic Stephen Chow “mo lei tau” slapstick over-the-top physical ridiculousness written all over it, so you’re either going to … Continue reading →
So this possible pairing is currently in the ideation stage and nowhere close to fruition but it still tickles my fancy. Liu Shi Shi is back in full time acting after having a baby three years ago and her currently airing A Journey to Love is a hit and she has Fox Spirit Matchmaker second season the Zhu Ye chapter … Continue reading →
So there is soooooo much wrong with this look C-actor Dylan Wang is sporting but the one thing not wrong is his tattoos showing. Dylan has many tattoos on his body which he normally covers up during filming and events, he’s like the male C-version of Han So Hee. It’s a freedom of expression for him and he isn’t bothered … Continue reading →
Year end is here so unless there is another big drama premiering in December then 2023 will now be looking back at the successes and failures. Of the current crop of C-drama male leads, there are three are are currently in close competition due to similar height, build, vibes, and projects in recent years. It’s Dylan Wang, Cheng Yi, and … Continue reading →
This is an interesting drama to dissect because there are clearly so much elements at play. Modern workplace romance C-drama Only for Love with Bai Lu and Dylan Wang finished airing this week and a happy ending did nothing to help this drama elevate it’s uniformly bad reviews. I think even Dylan fans just stayed quiet because trying to compliment … Continue reading →
I can only image how low this drama’s Douban ratings and lack of any buzz would be without leads Dylan Wang and Bai Lu starring in it. I noped out of Only for Love on the early side as even copious FF-ing and staring at Dylan did not help in any way to make it worth wasting my time on. … Continue reading →
Ooooh, this is juicy and a true power struggle with stakes. I don’t think non-Chinese dialect speakers understand the genesis of the dub in C-dramas and even earlier with HK-dramas and TW-dramas. The issue is that the Chinese ethnic groups have so many dialects some of which are unintelligible to each other that a universal dialect is needed to at … Continue reading →
Can I like this boy even more, it’s hard but he keeps on impressing me with his grit and determination. On the heels of Dylan Wang‘s modern office romance drama Only for Love, which is basically Fifty Shades of Grey without the kinky sex but the same level of brain dead workplace “plot”, the only good thing to come out … Continue reading →
