Who knew throwing some guyliner and fur on Zeng Shun Xi (Joseph Zeng) would make him for the first time seem quite an attractive leading man to me haha. The first stills are out for wuxia X-drama Seven Nights of Snow and it’s perfect timing to be released now in the winter. Starring Li Qin and Zeng Shun Xi, these … Continue reading →
Another C-drama got cast and will kick off filming, it’s called Seven Night Snow (七夜雪) and is adapted from a same title novel. The leads are Zeng Shun Xi and Li Qin and this is a fresh pairing and also two stars who can act.

They worked together in the 2010 … Continue reading →

C-ent is reporting a big potential casting news this week, the first ever dual female lead big budget period drama.

If the C-actresses are dressing way better than their K-counterparts on the red carpet, more diverse and experimental, they are also looking better makeup wise with rarely any overly BB-creamed face. K-actresses are so foundationally shellacked it detracts from the rest of the makeup technique but on the C-ent side there is apparently one top Chinese makeup artist by the … Continue reading →
New and dramatically sideways drama posters for upcoming big budget period C-drama Princess Agents has me mildly hopeful I can find a new C-drama worth watching.
