CTS Releases 25 Minute Preview for Material Queen with Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 11, 2011 by ockoalaJune 11, 2011

GUH. *Incoherent spazzing* I need. I want. I must have. CTS released a 25-minute preview for the upcoming TW-drama Material Queen, starring Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong. I watched it with stars in my eyes, totally entranced by the story and the indescribably beautiful cinematography. MQ is helmed by the PD who did one of the prettiest TW-dramas in the … Continue reading →

Material Queen Releases More Trailers and Vanness Wu’s Theme Song for the Drama

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 1, 2011 by ockoalaJune 1, 2011

We’re just two and a half weeks away from the premiere of the TW-drama Material Queen, and this is one drama where every single promo, still, and trailer gets me more excited about it, where initially I had zero interest. Unlike in Autumn’s Concerto, lead actor Vanness Wu gets to showcase his singer roots and grew-up-in-the-US crossover appeal by singing the theme … Continue reading →

NTV Releases BTS and Third Trailer for Material Queen and Interview with Designer Patricia Field

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 15, 2011 by ockoalaMay 15, 2011

This is it, folks. I’m officially sold. Do you accept credit cards, oh production of Material Queen? The upcoming TW-drama held a press conference this week with Lynn Xiong and Daniel Chan (Vanness Wu couldn’t make it due to scheduling conflicts) as the promotional train continues. While the more I watch the first trailer the more I love the trailer … Continue reading →

Material Queen Releases Official Stills and Second Trailer

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 13, 2011 by ockoalaMay 13, 2011

I can’t deny that I am extremely curious about Material Queen, the upcoming TW-drama starring Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong, which was filmed on location in Paris, styled by Patricia Fields, and helmed by the PD who directed the unbelievably beautiful Autumn’s Concerto. While the story doesn’t appeal to me right off the bat (hur, what do I know about … Continue reading →

Newsflash – Rainie Yang and Joseph Chang’s Drunken to Love You episode 1 premiered at a 2.98 ratings (comparatively, Sunny Happiness has been the ratings champion for 8 weeks straight averaging only about 1.60 in ratings). I think we have a new crack TW-mania drama, folks – but can it break Fated to Love You‘s 10.91 all-time ratings high? With … Continue reading →

After filming intermittently for the past 6 months, which is quite long for a TW-idol drama (typical filming length is 3 months), Vanness Wu just tweeted today (accompanied by the sepia-tinted picture below) that filming has finally wrapped for Material Queen, which co-stars supermodel-actress Lynn Xiong. MQ has been plagued with production woes, notably its two stars being quite upset … Continue reading →

It’s been awhile since there has been any news about the ongoing filming of upcoming TW-drama Material Queen 拜金女王, starring Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong (model-actress-girlfriend of Aaron Kwok). The production has been filming for the past four months, and may be getting a Spring air date on SETTV. It’s from the same writer-PD combo that brought 2009’s surprise hit … Continue reading →

I wasn’t planning on following or posting about the upcoming TW-drama Material Queen, but the first stills were released yesterday and I found them quite pretty. Mind you, the cast and story are still not all that enticing to me, but these stills are too visual eye-candy not to share.
