An upcoming xianxia C-drama finished filming recently so let’s take a look at Love in the Clouds, starring Hou Ming Hao and Lu Yu Xiao. It’s yet early in the post-production but I do expect this drama sometime in late 2025 to be released. Hou Ming Hao continues to do one drama after another, all looking promising but none being … Continue reading →
If producer Yu Zheng being such a troll online is intentional and meant to keep him always in topics of conversation then he’s doing a good job. And it does translate to more interest in his projects and he has a next drama lined up that he’s producing. It’s titled 玉铭茶骨 Yu Ming Cha Gu and is a male lead … Continue reading →
I don’t think xianxia C-drama Fangs of Fortune would have done better or worse in a different time slot. It premiered and then a week later the two-headed beast that was The Story of Pearl Girl and Love Game in Eastern Fantasy arrived to suck all the attention into their top drama actress battle. But there is and always will … Continue reading →
So another C-actor is being coined with sad sack description of “Hopeless Illiterate” or “Desperate Illiterate” and it’s Hou Min Hao. He’s been in the variety program Divas Hit the Road Season 6 and in the latest episode the squad visited Tanzania and at a senior center Hou Min Hao gave a present to the director that he said was … Continue reading →
So Fangs of Fortune is here and the reviews and commentary on the premiere episodes are per usual quite on point depending on whether director Guo Jing Ming‘s visual style is your jam or not. The criticism is that it’s very posed, the video filter and makeup is excessive and distracting, flowing hair but empty eyes, gorgeous side profiles but … Continue reading →
I’ve been hearing that director Guo Jing Ming and his next stylish drama Fangs of Fortune was airing sometime in October but it was nearing the end and still no set date. But here it comes as an air drop as the drama is premiering today on iQiyi. Starring Hou Ming Hao, Chen Du Ling, Tian Jia Rui, and Cheng … Continue reading →
The schedule is set for Fangs of Fortune to arrive end of this month October on iQiyi. There is already so much promo for it for months so it’s definitely director Guo Jing Ming‘s fave child for sure, with an ending song dance MV and now an opening credits song MV and also additional trailers and Weibo vids interspersed. Starring … Continue reading →
So the backstage fighting with period C-drama Dashing Youth is more interesting to me than the drama itself lol. This wasn’t a big budget drama and premiered right during the Olympics so it was clear Youku wasn’t banking much on it. The earlier buzz was high enough to be promising but quickly lost steam and stayed low-ish through it’s just … Continue reading →
So I thought this C-drama was on ice due to the difficulty of casting a bevy of male leads opposite Dilraba Dilmurat that she can take revenge on because each guy is a cheating asshole as she time and world hops around. The drama is titled 万花世界 (Wan Hua Shi Jie or Hundred Flower World) and is adapted from a manhwa … Continue reading →
The period C-drama Dashing Youth adapted from the novel Shao Nian Bai Ma Zui Chun Feng 少年白马醉春风 is headed to premiere having gotten the Youku slot following the conclusion of The Princess Royal. Starring Hou Ming Hao, He Yu, and Hu Lian Xin, the drama is about a young master who just wants to make wine but ends up being … Continue reading →
Gotta give it to director Guo Jing Ming (Edward Guo) for bringing something fresh and different to the period drama genre in terms of promos. His next drama is the xianxia and mystery period drama Fangs of Fortune (formerly titled The Story of Mystics) starring Hou Ming Hao and Chen Du Ling along with what appears to be half the … Continue reading →
Well it looks like C-actress Zhao Li Ying isn’t content to be one of the top of the C-drama actress list and branching into more prestigious C-movies, she’s also stepping behind the scenes. It was revealed recently that the actress is the executive producer of the just started filming xianxia C-drama Xiao Yao starring Tan Song Yun and Hou Ming … Continue reading →
So another C-drama just started filming after the lunar new year holidays and it’s called Xiao Yao (逍遥 which means carefree). It stars Tan Song Yun as the titular Xiao Yao named female lead and Hou Ming Hao which for some reason evokes Hou Ming Hao and his last drama pairing with Zhou Ye in Back From the Brink. This … Continue reading →
