Oh baby come to momma! Talk about going from quiet and mundane village life stills in the recent promos for The Legend of Shen Li to lighting a fire with the eyes alone. For Valentine’s Day, many upcoming C-dramas released OTP posters for fan service and I’m slurping up the one from this drama with Zhao Li Ying in Lin … Continue reading →
The It’s been six years since hit drama Princess Agents and this year 2023 will see the reunion of the two leads in the fantasy period drama The Legend of Shen Li (Yu Feng Xing or Accompanying the Phoenix). The drama finished filming towards the end of last year and no word on airing date but the early interest is … Continue reading →
I really love the ordinary people feel of The Legend of Shen Li promo stills so far. It’s a xianxia drama but it doesn’t make it so over-the-top with bright colors and overly accessorized. A new still is out of leads Zhao Li Ying and Lin Geng Xin in warmer embrace standing in front of a country estate wearing muted … Continue reading →
I feel like Zhao Li Ying keeps getting period dramas with really bland English titles. The Story of Minglan, The Legend of Fei, The Story of Happiness, and now The Legend of Shen Li. The Chinese titles are all way cooler and for The Legend of Shen Li it’s called Yu Feng Xing (與鳳行 Accompanying the Phoenix) as she’s a … Continue reading →
Well one of these two is looking mighty fine, but then again, I’m partial that her to begin with. The first stills are out of the two leads for the upcoming C-drama The Legend of Shen Li adapted from the novel Yu Feng Xing (Traveling with the Phoenix). Zhao Li Ying plays a female general and she looks kickass, love … Continue reading →
The new crop of C-drama actresses that have up come up big in the last few years have done so because the last gen hasn’t been doing as many C-dramas, it’s one gen takes the myriad opportunities that arise. But the last gen is still doing dramas from time and time and it gets a lot of press, case in … Continue reading →
A nice wholesome bromance is a great sight for sore eyes this week, I’ve been dealing with a severe medical condition for ten days which has finally turned the corner for the better and it’s nice to be reminded of something positive. Mark Chao and Lin Geng Xin are two of China’s most well-known and popular male television leads, and … Continue reading →
I love self-deprecation especially in the entertainment industry since it can get too pompous and self-congratulatory. The 2017 C-star Awards were a blast to watch because it was just stars being sincerely thankful to be popular and having fun being a little bit silly. The winners all had to receive a prize that was either a vegetable or fruit, and … 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. Can’t say I love either leads Zhao Li Ying or Lin Geng Xin but I don’t dislike either as well and have heard lots of buzz around this particular project since it was announced. … Continue reading →
This pictorial does double duty of being super charming and reminding that wedding season is around the corner. Spring does host plenty of weddings but early summer is wedding manna and it’s also the same time that Lin Geng Xin and Zhao Li Ying‘s highly anticipated period C-drama Princess Agent airs this year. The drama title sounds silly enough but … Continue reading →
Actresses rarely get the accolade of aging beautifully, reserved for actors who grow older onscreen with dignity while the fresh-faced beauties are held up to impossible standards. With that said, leading lady Zhao Li Ying is absolutely aging beautifully and it’s all due to her shedding the super cutesy baby girl looks and flourishing into an angular more intense glamour. … Continue reading →
Bigger isn’t necessarily better is a true adage in many situations, and almost certainly applies to dramas. Those aiming for bigger often find the collapse to be equally thunderous, which can make for entertaining watches for the exact opposite reasons of rubbernecking the hot mess. Premiering this April 3rd is the huge budget period C-drama God of War Zhao Zi … Continue reading →
Money was clearly no limitation for the lavish and star-studded wedding ceremony of top Chinese stars Huang Xiaoming and Angelababy. It was as luxurious and over-the-top as Jay Chou‘s nuptials to Hannah Quinlivan last year, minus only the English castle backdrop but plus dozens more celebrity guests since it wasn’t a destination wedding. The newlyweds actually got married officially a … Continue reading →
