The ever more handsome Nicky Wu graces the January 2012 edition Cosmopolitan China , and he’s once again hitting the pictorial out of the park in terms of wowing me from behind the pages. I find myself missing Bu Bu Jing Xin a lot lately, and it’s a combination of just nostalgia and vivid recollection of just how compelling everything … Continue reading →
Apple Daily released its list of the top ten money-making Taiwanese entertainers in 2011, five from each gender. The results are interesting purely from a curiosity perspective, since how much I like an actress or actor has no correlation to how much money they bring in. Nicky Wu leads the pack amongst all the male Taiwanese actors, with all his … Continue reading →
What’s better than one Nicky Wu? Two Nickys, of course! I came across another batch of new pictorials from Nicky, who has just been confirmed as a solo performer for the 2012 Lunar New Year event (like the Super Bowl of Chinese television, except without possibly nip slips during the show), which says tons about his resurging popularity since he … Continue reading →
Nicky Wu and Wallace Huo just wrapped their upcoming period detective drama Xing Ming Shi Ye and the production has released an official preview and behind-the-scenes look at the drama. It’s got a dash of CSI, some bromance, and plenty of love triangle angst to go around considering I just saw Nicky crash Wallace’s character’s wedding and steal the bride … Continue reading →
Nicky Wu was on this month’s cover and pages of Men Style China magazine, which is apropos since he’s a man’s man and the man has got some serious style. I’ve seen enough of Nicky’s career works to tell you he definitely looks better in modern garb, as opposed to other actors who are strangely better suited to play period … Continue reading →
Nicky Wu has been filming a C-drama recently but he’s managed to find time to do interviews and promotions for Bu Bu Jing Xin here and there. Elle China recently interviewed him and did a photospread that I found totally perfect. I love the elegantly cut black suit and Nicky doing calligraphy for the pictures. He actually wrote the characters … Continue reading →
So I noticed Weibo going insane today with Bu Bu Jing Xin chatter, and I figured it was because of the recent Sohu Television Awards celebrating Chinese television’s hits for the recent Fall season. Turns out some of it was that, but mostly because Tangren‘s ladyboss said during the awards ceremony that the company was planning a sequel to BBJX!?! … Continue reading →
October’s Easy Magazine, one of China’s glossiest entertainment magazines, features the cast of Bu Bu Jing Xin with in depth interviews and photoshoots. I’m traveling this weekend so no scene recap for my BBJX fellow addicts, but these pictures ought to be a sight for sore eyes. Nicky Wu lands on the cover while the rest of the equally gorgeous … Continue reading →
Nicky Wu is the one cast member from Bu Bu Jing Xin to experience the most meteoric rise in popularity from the drama, since his performance as 4th Prince was just so unforgettable. He just started filming his next drama, the period investigative Xing Ming Shi Ye adapted from a novel of the same name, co-starring Wallace Huo. Funny enough, … Continue reading →
Now that Bu Bu Jing Xin is over and the entire cast has seen a meteoric rise in their popularity in China, I thought it fitting to take a look at where most of our favorite princes and time-traveling heroine are headed to next. BBJX actually wrapped filming back in March of 2011, so many of the cast have actually filmed other … Continue reading →
The C-news around Bu Bu Jing Xin exploded this weekend with the revelation that Director Lee apparently filmed multiple endings for the drama, and due to the leak of the DVD version, the production has stated that the currently airing Hunan TV version, which ends this week, will have a different ending. What tha what?! Okay, if the alterna-drama ending … Continue reading →
I’ve found myself toggling between four different drama worlds recently, the most expansive watch portfolio in recent memory. I only need to add a TVB drama from HK to complete the quintet (heard LoO is insanely addicting). I’ve been waiting for the drama-adaptation of Tong Hua’s internet time-travel novel Bu Bu Jing Xin since it started filming late last year, … Continue reading →
After posting about Bu Bu Jing Xin last night, I ended up kissing sleep goodbye and marathoning all the available episodes (10 out of 35 estimated episodes). I look like a very hideous raccoon this morning, but it was worth it. I haven’t loved a C-drama this much since LOCH2008, which surprise surprise, is also a Tangren production directed by … Continue reading →
