A new xianxia C-drama has wrapped filming this week and released the first set of official stills. It’s Veil of Shadows produced by Guo Jing Ming and starring many of the same faces that have been in his recent dramas. The leads are Ju Jing Yi, Chen Du Ling, Zeng Shun Xi, and Tian Jia Rui, and it’s reportedly a … Continue reading →
Last weekend was the iQiyi Scream Night 2024 which is where the streaming platform gets all the drama C-stars together to present various awards all of which are based on popularity and buzz basically. So lots of celebs and a fun night vibe, and the cutest selfie out of the evening comes courtesy of actor Zeng Shun Xi. He managed … Continue reading →
Of the three higher profile C-dramas that premiered in October, the least buzzy and watched has been wuxia drama Snowy Night: Timeless Love with Li Qin and Zeng Shun Xi. I enjoyed gazing at the snowy artistic stills but have no interest to watch a drama with these two leads unless it gets rave reviews. And it didn’t, the reception … Continue reading →
I think snow might be a major character in the upcoming wuxia C-drama Snowy Night: Timeless Love (Seven Nights Snow) since the whole backdrop of the snowy valley and cold nights is so prominently featured in all the promos for this drama. iQiyi has scheduled Snowy Night: Timeless Love for next week October 9th premiere so it’s nice to have … Continue reading →
This is the kind of popcorn I love since I don’t care about any of the leads and if this turns out a great drama it’ll be nice to watch and if it’s a hot mess it will be a different kind of fun to watch. The C-drama version of demon romance drama Painted Skin is in the casting and … Continue reading →
So director Guo Jing Ming is famous for his works focusing more on visuals and aesthetics over all else. If he’s lucky and has a compelling story and good actors then it works like My Journey to You, but most of his stuff just comes off as empty but pretty. He’s planning to make the C-drama version of Painted Skin, … Continue reading →
Producer Yu Zheng has been hyping up Lin Jiang Xian (formerly There is a Fox in Hengmen) for months now and I’m not allergic to his dramas on principle but other than The Double I really haven’t seen anything that made me want to watch and this one falls into that latter category as well. The character posters released earlier … Continue reading →
So the better than expected reception for revenge period C-drama The Double has led to producer Yu Zheng being on cloud nine and even more outspoken than usual. He released new stills this week for Dragon Boat Festival for his currently filming C-drama Lin Jiang Xian (临江仙) formerly called There is a Fox in Hengmen. I have no idea what’s … Continue reading →
So one good aspect of producer Yu Zheng being a mega hype artist for his own dramas is that he is on top of sharing new promos. Two new stills are out for the period C-drama Lin Jiang Xian (formerly A Fox in Hengmen) starring Bai Lu and Zeng Shun Xi and both look so much better and less uncanny … Continue reading →
So this is the drama trolly producer Yu Zheng recently praised as better than Goblin and The Glory, which beyond the hyperbole just seems like so unrelated as this is a xianxia drama and those are just different genres lol. He just wrapped filming for ensemble period C-drama Perfect Match but has already started filming for xianxia C-drama Lin Jiang … Continue reading →
Man, watching C-drama producer Yu Zheng being the pompous troll that he is may be more entertaining than this drama end product. The xianxia C-drama Lin Jiang Xian (formerly Heng Men You Hu or There is a Fox in Hengmen) commenced filming this week with leads Bai Lu and Zeng Shun Xi (Joseph Zeng) who theoretically should be fine together, … Continue reading →
C-actress Bai Lu continues her drama-to-drama filming streak, I genuinely don’t remember seeing her take any time off. She just wrapped Moonlight Mystique and next month will start filming the period C-drama Heng Men You Hou (衡门有狐 There is a Fox in Hengmen). Her male lead is Zeng Shun Xi (Joseph Zeng) who has grown on me, I still am … Continue reading →
Who knew throwing some guyliner and fur on Zeng Shun Xi (Joseph Zeng) would make him for the first time seem quite an attractive leading man to me haha. The first stills are out for wuxia X-drama Seven Nights of Snow and it’s perfect timing to be released now in the winter. Starring Li Qin and Zeng Shun Xi, these … Continue reading →
