I don’t think it’s intentional as an acting niche but recently Xu Kai has been on a noona conquering warpath in his C-drama picks. She and Her Perfect Husband was probably the pinnacle of that but he’s also done it … Continue reading
True popularity is a combination of timing (right role/right time) and talent and in the cutthroat world of C-ent with countless talents rising and on the rise it’s one misstep and off the cliff. But there are also stars who … Continue reading
It’s weird, I’m not a Xu Kai fan probably because I won’t touch his breakout drama Story of Yanxi Palace with a ten foot pole (allergic to palace dramas and Yumama), but I am oddly super looking forward to both … Continue reading
C-actor Xu Kai is in much need of a hit and if everyone is still talking about 2018 drama Story of Yanxi Palace them yep. Ancient Love Poetry with Zhou Dong Yu was just mediocre, started off bad but did … Continue reading

There are few actors or actresses that’s a sure thing to watch and Bolin Chen is on that short list for me. His intensity in performance is always a pleasure even in the most uninspiring of fare, and most of … Continue reading
I did double take when I saw both the casting and the adaptation announced for an upcoming fantasy C-drama. The King of Blaze (Fire King) taps into an old school manga well in adapting the same name Taiwanese manga from … Continue reading
