I personally prefer dramas that I either love, hate, or love to hate, and it’s actually worse when a drama bores me or doesn’t hook me at all for whatever reason. That’s how I feel about recently aired period C-drama Unveil: Jadewind with Bai Lu and Wang Xing Yue. I watched the first episode hoping for the same cheesy but … Continue reading →
I am more a period C-drama girlie than I am a modern one, but whenever I watch a really addicting modern one it gets me excited for that genre for a period of time until the high dies down lol. I really enjoyed Shine on Me last month so now I’m more excited than usual as I watch one of … Continue reading →
So Youku is playing coy with giving an exact date but all airing rumors has Unveil: Jadewind with Bai Lu and Wang Xing Yue being released either by the end of January this weekend or the beginning of February next week. I am excited but after watching the newly released trailer a little less hyped solely because the drama looks … Continue reading →
C-actor Wang Xing Yue is only 23 years old this year and that’s always wild when I remember it because he’s been in so many dramas since his debut in 2020 and has really earned his chops and elevation to male lead. A lot of thinking he’s older is because he’s done so many period dramas where he always comes … Continue reading →
I’m so excited to hear that Youku is reportedly scheduling the investigative period C-drama Unveil: Jadewind for early February 2026. That’s a few weeks ago and right before the coming lunar new year so if it’s good should have a shot to get high viewership thanks to the holidays off for people. Starring Bai Lu and Wang Xing Yue, it’s … Continue reading →
The filming kick off for this drama slipped by a month from December now into January next month, making it a nice way to start off the new year in 2026. C-ent insiders are saying that filming is confirmed to kick off mid-January in a few weeks for romance modern C-drama Confession (or Gao Bai) starring Wang Xing Yue and … Continue reading →
It’s wild that I’m typing out next month as January 2026 already, another year’s flown right by. It’s been a mixed bag in drama land for me this year but I’m always keeping my hopes for as I hear about promising future dramas on deck. A new C-drama was supposed to have kicked off filming this month in December 2025 … Continue reading →
So the timing of this drama is solely in the hands of one person, producer Yu Zheng. He has the rights to the novel Falling Spring Night (坠落春夜 Zhui Luo Chun Ye) and the leads are his agency top stars Wu Jin Yan and Wang Xing Yue. So basically he can make the production schedule work by moving chess pieces … Continue reading →
If that troll producer Yu Zheng plays his cards right with his young and talented agency star Wang Xing Yue he could be his retirement lol. I’ve watched Wang Xing Yue in four dramas with four different roles and he portrays each one perfectly and differently, whether whiny antagonist to stoic male support to flashy drama king to resigned detective … Continue reading →
If Bai Lu is the hardest working C-actress in the industry doing dramas basically nonstop, her counterpart has to be Wang Xing Yue who has gone from one set to another with barely any gap since about two years ago when he was elevated from main supporting to male lead status. I’m not complaining, even playing similarly described smart/resourceful/capable characters … Continue reading →
The Chinese title for C-drama The Wanted Detective is actually Calming Waves, which described the airing of the drama that came and went without much buzz or ripple. But I think those who checked it out like me and got inexplicably hooked are more than care to admit, and the drama may have legs in a better way than dramas … Continue reading →
Watching The Wanted Detective recently got me in an investigative drama mood, and male lead Wang Xing Yue actually has another such drama on deck that I am hoping gets released sooner now. It’s called Unveil: Jadewind (The Mysterious Case of Tang Palace) and stars Bai Lu as the female lead and third time reuniting with Wang Xing Yue after … Continue reading →
This week iQiyi wrapped the run for The Wanted Detective, by all measure of heat and viewership metrics on the platform and beyond a total dud. This wasn’t a big budget or big name drama so being underwhelming won’t garner any articles about it, but I want to write about it because it’s the only drama I’ve finished from start … Continue reading →
