Hahaha, omg are Dilraba Dilmurat fans bored or simply trolling here. Because there is no way this is even worthy of a discussion because the answer is so one-sided. This week the fandom of Dilraba and Ju Jing Yi have been waging an online war of words battle over which one is the top actress, and by top it means … Continue reading →
So this is the drama that Ju Jing Yi was still filming when In Blossom premiered and guest starring Zheng Hehuizi stole her thunder, and in a stroke of irony the two were filming this drama together where Ju Jing Yi is the female lead and Zheng Hehuizi the supporting female lead. It’s called Qian Xiang (Thousand Fragrances) adapted from … Continue reading →
This is totally the case of bad publicity being better than no publicity at all. The underdog period C-drama In Blossom has been the unexpected success of the March 2024 releases, everyone expected bigger star and bigger budget The Legend of Shen Li to do well which it is but In Blossom is just below Shen Li in terms of … Continue reading →
So the brief downfall of Angelababy after her Crazy Horse show attendance last year did leave a spot for aspiring C-actresses to try and land roles and CFs and brad invites. But unfortunately for C-actress Ju Jing Yi there was also the spot for worst C-actress ever and now she’s been slotted in as the next Angelababy. I have to … Continue reading →
Okay gurl, just chill your horses and preserve the goodwill.

I feel like the expected success of xianxia C-drama Love Between Devil and Fairy in 2022 made everyone think that xianxia dramas were more than just niche offerings with the occasional success. Otherwise how to explain the expectations for recent xianxia offerings like The Last Immortal and now both Chinese Paladin game adaptations Sword and Fairy 4 based on CP4 … Continue reading →
It was just a production scheduling screw up that Chinese Paladin 4 adaptation Sword and Fairy 4 and Chinese Paladin 6 adaptation Sword and Fairy (just that, no 6 in the title) aired at the exact same time. Okay, one day apart in premiere but who’s quibbling, or perhaps that’s exactly the same difference in it’s reception. Industry pundits are … Continue reading →
After all that public fighting over billing order for Sword and Fairy 4 (Chinese Paladin 4), this mix up is especially funnier and more karmic for the production company. This week on one of the streaming landing pages for the drama, eagle eyed viewers noticed that the names of leads Ju Jing Yi and Chen Zhe Yuan instead read Liu … Continue reading →

There are so many finished C-dramas with actual problems, like in jail mail leads, a topic that is banned by the C-government, and a cast member under investigation for tax evasion.
