It’s titled Gui Luan (歸鸞) where Gui means returning and Luan is a fictional mythical bird related to the phoenix. The drama has cast Zhang Ling He and Zhang Miao Yi as the leads but the early feedback has … Continue reading →
This drama likely won’t air until 2026, and hopefully earlier in the year because I am so excited for it! C-drama Overdo with Zhang Ling He and Wang Chu Ran released a first short teaser trailer recently and it drops the viewers into a tight maelstrom of action. The trailer has no dialogue and is just a fast-paced vignette of … Continue reading →
Awwww, such a bummer that the little lightning that made The Princess Royal such a solid watch didn’t hit twice in their second outing. Zhao Jin Mai and Zhang Ling He reunited to film Our Generation immediately after TPR aired last year and maybe in their haste didn’t fully vet this drama plot out because OG is being called a … Continue reading →
This coming week will see the arrival of Our Generation (Chinese title 樱桃琥珀 Cherry Amber) on Youku on July 14th. It was expected to air in July but the drama starring Zhao Jin Mai and Zhang Ling He will not have as broad a distribution as initially intimated. There was talk that the drama would also air terrestrially on CCTV … Continue reading →
I love how fast C-netizens and their tabloids get the most current visuals of on set drama filming. It’s just days ago that filming started for Republic era period C-drama Overdo (Chinese title 这一秒过火 This Second Overheat) adapted from the novel by writer Fei Wo Si Can best known for bringing the angst and tormented love pain. The official character … Continue reading →
A new big budget high profile C-drama has kicked off filming and it’s the Tencent and iQiyi joint production of Overdo (Chinese title 这一秒过火 Zhe Yi Miao Guo Huo or This Second Overheat). It’s a Republic era period drama adapted from a popular romance novel by writer Fei Wo Si Cun and will star Zhang Ling He and Wang Chu … Continue reading →
Viewers have eyes and we can see onscreen and offscreen star chemistry (or lack thereof) clear as day. So from the first trailer released of Tencent period romance C-drama Chasing Jade with Zhang Ling He and Tian Xi Wei last month it’s clear the leads have loads of chemistry in character. But this week as the two attended a Tencent … Continue reading →
Oh I am not happy hearing this. Nothing good ever comes from big cuts to episode length, while smaller incisions could work either to slim fluff or at least not impact the whole story. Modern school age to adult romance Our Generation (Chinese title Cherry Amber) with Zhao Jin Mai and Zhang Ling He has been cut from the original … Continue reading →
So this is one of the fastest reunions in C-dramas among OTP leads and I couldn’t be happier. Zhao Jin Mai and Zhang Ling He went from their period C-drama The Princess Royal airing to good reviews and reception to being reunited and kicking off filming of modern growth romance C-drama Our Generation (Chinese title 樱桃琥珀 Ying Tao Hu Puo … Continue reading →
Awww bummer I would have LOVED to see these two work together. C-ent casting gossip is saying that Zhao Lu Si was in talks for a period romance C-drama titled Yue Luo Hua Du 月落花都 which means Moon Falling on Flower Capital and if it was finalized would be her first drama since her medical hiatus four months ago. The … Continue reading →
Well this is a great look and very tall main cast lol. C-ent casting mill is saying that Zhang Ling He and Wang Chu Ran will be the next carousel musical chairs leads pairing up, with rising actor Zhou Ke Yu joining them as the second male lead. The drama is titled If We Were Strangers (Chinese title 如果这一秒，我没遇见你 If … Continue reading →
If I can’t get my Legend of the Female General anytime soon thanks to the supporting male lead needing to get AI face swapped out then at least I can look forward to this. The first poster and preview is out for the iQiyi period romance C-drama Zhu Yu (Chinese title is translated literally as Chasing Jade) with leads Zhang … Continue reading →
I don’t know which title is blander for this modern C-drama, the Chinese title of 爱你 (Ai Ni) or Love You/Loving You or the English title of The Best Thing. It’s like creativity and originality took a nap during naming session. To be fair to the drama, its adapted from the novel Loving You Is the Best Thing I Have … Continue reading →
