Ranking of the Most Buzzed About Stars in China in 2014

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 31, 2015 by ockoalaMay 11, 2015

I’ve noticed that over the years I’ve been writing about C-dramas, and C-entertainment more and more due to the rise of both the quality as well as the increase in cross-border collaborations. Some folks new to C-dramas, or haven’t even dipped a toe in, sometimes enjoy my posts without a clue of who’s popular and why certain stars seem to … Continue reading →

Newlyweds Liu Shi Shi and Nicky Wu Bask in Well-wishes From Friends and Bu Bu Jing Xin Cast

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 24, 2015 by ockoalaJune 25, 2015

I caution drama fans not to get too involved with reel to real shipping since the odds are forever against anything happening off screen. It’s like being selected for the Hunger Games, expect to die but at least give it your best shot. With that said, the recent C-ent wave-making marriage of Bu Bu Jing Xin costars Nicky Wu and … Continue reading →

Hu Ge Confirms Dating Rumors with Drama Costar Newbie C-actress Maggie Jiang

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 3, 2015 by ockoalaJanuary 3, 2015

This post is a few days late but the last celebrity dating news of 2014 arrived courtesy of C-ent and one of my soft spot fave C-actors. After a week of intense media scrutiny and totally contradictory weibo updates, C-actor Hu Ge confirmed right before the end of the year that he’s dating newbie C-actress Maggie Jiang. They met on the … Continue reading →

Ariel Lin Gets Engaged at Star-studded Banquet in Taipei

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 30, 2014 by ockoalaOctober 30, 2014

We all know how quickly fame and fortune can flee, especially in the entertainment industry with a lot of temptation and a fickle audience as consumers. That makes Ariel Lin’s reign as one of Taiwan’s top actresses and entertainers all the more impressive. She’s got both mass market popularity with her dramas and win plenty of critical acting awards for … Continue reading →

Gorgeous Hu Ge and Liu Shi Shi Dazzle at the Da Mo Yao Drama Press Conference

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 27, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 30, 2014

After translating thirty-eight dense chapters and following the drama progress for over two years, I think I’m done writing about Da Mo Yao. At least done when it comes to having more opinions about the casting, struggle to get on air, and first peeks at the end product. The upcoming C-drama renamed Sound of the Desert is finally arriving on the small screen … Continue reading →

Sound of the Desert Releases Poignant Official Drama Theme Song MV by Hu Ge

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 21, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 22, 2014

I’ve been thinking about the most wonderful yet thoroughly depressing to read male leads in Tong Hua novels and she’s done a fantastic job of creating many unforgettable such men. 8th Prince got it bad in Bu Bu Jing Xin since he had the girl until the tides of history kicked him in the arse and she left him rather … Continue reading →

Da Mo Yao FINALLY Readies for Television Premiere in Three Weeks on October 1st

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 13, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 13, 2014

The labored production history of the drama adaptation of the Tong Hua romance novel Da Mo Yao (Ballad of the Desert) is best described as potential hot mess meets the boy who cried wolf. The start and stop of when this long completed drama would finally air left me sapped of nearly all interest in it, not to mention I’m … Continue reading →

Hu Ge Headlines the Beautiful and Epic Chinese Period Drama Nirvana in Fire

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 12, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 12, 2014

There’s another intensely rich in story and visuals period C-drama on the horizon and every tidbit that has come out has only looked better and better. With my posting about Hu Ge this week it’s the perfect time to showcase his return to period dramas (some may argue his forte genre) as the lead in the drama-adaptation of the popular … Continue reading →

Cross-border Hotties Joe Cheng, Hu Ge, and Kim Soo Hyun Together at the Seoul International Drama Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 5, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 6, 2014

The 9th annual Seoul International Drama Awards was held this week and came across as rather random in timing since I’m used to Asian award ceremonies either at year end or beginning of the year. This award definitely tries to live up to the word international in its title and doles out prizes for acting and dramas outside of Korea. … Continue reading →

Da Mo Yao Drama Gets June Airdate and Releases Gorgeous Sad Official Theme Song MV

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 9, 2014 by ockoalaMay 9, 2014

There is a very pithy saying that the readers of Tong Hua novels have coined and it kills me each time to hear it repeated. “There was Xiang Liu in ancient times of gods and demons, he was reincarnated into Meng Jiu in historical times, only to end up as Lu Li Cheng in modern day.” I’ve read all three … Continue reading →

Kim Woo Bin and Park Hae Jin Join Other Popular Stars for the 10th Anniversary Edition of Men’s Uno China

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 3, 2014 by ockoalaMay 3, 2014

For the 10th anniversary edition of Men’s Uno China magazine, the publication went all out and tapped 10 of the hottest celebrities in Mainland China to be on one of its 10 unique covers. I wonder whose job that was and could I have it? The result is a yummilicious collection of celebs not limited to Chinese actors but also … Continue reading →

Da Mo Yao Renamed The Sun Moon Legend and Finally Gets SARFT Approval

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 10, 2013 by ockoalaAugust 9, 2013

Brother Wolf approves, yes he does. The long drawn out Da Mo Yao–SARFT debacle has finally come to an end. On August 5th, a drama titled The Sun Moon Legend quietly got issued a SARFT permit and eagle-eyed fans recognized it as the plot synopsis of the drama adaptation of Da Mo Yao but with a different title and character … Continue reading →

Hu Ge and Liu Shi Shi Unleash their Playful Antics for Femina Magazine

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 7, 2013 by ockoalaFebruary 5, 2013

Hu Ge and Liu Shi Shi, both belonging to the same agency/production company Tangren, are fast approaching legendary status for one hilarious quirk – they have starred in 9 dramas together and have never been the OTP. They have been siblings, in-laws, fiancees who don’t end up getting married, first loves that don’t end up together, anything and everything except … Continue reading →
