It’s weird to use such a bland description as “good” or “decent” to describe something without it sounding like an insult but for C-drama Wonderland of Love within the context of the period C-dramas this is a genuine compliment. I watched this drama starring Xu Kai and Jing Tian for the last 3 weeks without any desire to drop it and managed to not FF as much as I usually do. It’s adapted from a Fei Wo Si Cun novel and not at all angsty or cray cray like Sealed with a Kiss or Goodbye My Princess, the story actually has two emotionally healthy, mutually communicative, and very expressive with all the flirting and making out OTP. It leaves the crazy to the two second leads and oh lord are they awful human beings and awfully entertaining to watch as each plots inane to dumbass plots to separate the OTP and get with their respective obsessively in love with main leads. The directly is smooth and no nonsensical edits to the story that I can tells, so watch away without fear haha and keep your expectations low for a very solid period drama.

I sorta dig when a C-drama early promos show one story and then a substantive trailer hits and it’s a totally different beast. C-drama Wonderland of Love with Xu Kai and Jing Tian doesn’t have an airing date yet but … Continue reading
I don’t think it’s intentional as an acting niche but recently Xu Kai has been on a noona conquering warpath in his C-drama picks. She and Her Perfect Husband was probably the pinnacle of that but he’s also done it … Continue reading
It’s weird, I’m not a Xu Kai fan probably because I won’t touch his breakout drama Story of Yanxi Palace with a ten foot pole (allergic to palace dramas and Yumama), but I am oddly super looking forward to both … Continue reading
