The Valentine’s Day drop of romantic OTP posters for upcoming C-dramas has released two for the xianxia drama The Last Immortal (Hidden God). Starring Zhao Lu Si and Wang An Yu, I like the color and posing for both posters and am really really glad the leads ended up being these two because they look really visually compatible.

This past weekend the Chinese Central Television official website published an article by a news reporter discussing the scourge of young actors who are “The Hopeless Illiterate” after that term started trending. The trend started due to … Continue reading →
So this official promo drop came from nowhere so I didn’t see it until a few days later but no fret here it is, the first posters and stills for the upcoming xianxia C-drama The Last Immortal (Hidden Gods). Starring Zhao Lu Si and Wang An Yu, the drama is a sequel of sorts to Ancient Love Poetry which starred … Continue reading →
The slow stroll towards the 2023 sometime arrival of modern college era romance C-drama Hidden Love starts off with a milestone this January. Youku announced that the series has over 1 million reservations, viewers interested in watching the drama, and is the fastest to cross that threshold on the platform. Congrats to the production team and leads Chen Zhe Yuan … Continue reading →
It’s hard to have a hit drama but to have two in one year is an incredible achievement so kudos to C-actress Zhao Lu Si. She started with Who Rules the World with Yang Yang and midway went to the stratosphere with Love Like the Galaxy opposite Wu Lei. She got her share of the praise for the dramas rather … Continue reading →
Filming has kicked off for the C-drama adaptation of period fantasy romance novel Hidden God, the sequel in the same story that was Ancient Love Poetry. It will be Zhao Lu Si‘s first role in a xianxia drama (about time!) and she’s got top billing here so if the drama succeeds or fails will definitely impact what the industry thinks … Continue reading →
So the upcoming C-drama Hidden God (Shen Yin) did start filming this month in December right on time despite the last minute male lead casting hijinks. The first sneak peeks are here and initially it was only of the two male leads Wang An Yu and Li Yun Rui, but a day later came female lead Zhao Lu Si who … Continue reading →
So I guess fans of Love Like the Galaxy will NOT be seeing any reunion onscreen of leads Zhao Lu Si and Wu Lei, at least anytime in the near future. Perhaps a long ways out but there was talk of the two being offered the leads to a modern romance C-drama and both doing it. This week a popular … Continue reading →
So I noticed the 2022 Weibo TV and Internet Video Summit solely for the onstage pairing of Chen Fei Yu (Arthur Chen) and Dylan Wang, two sizzling in popularity young actors who happened to play the same character in Ever Night season 1 and 2. But it turns out the ladies side was wayyyyyyyy juicier and get ready for cat … Continue reading →
The Bulgari event in August was the first event I saw Zhao Lu Si at after the airing of Love Like the Galaxy and I thought she looked perfectly styled there, elegant and sleek with an updo and a low cut strapless white column gown with a tucked waist. She’s been brand ambassador for some time and last week it … Continue reading →
It’s good to have a plan B, or C, D, E, F, lol I don’t know how wide the production of C-drama Hidden God cast the net to so quickly line up a replacement male lead and not impact the filming schedule. The drama is slated to start filming at the end of the month in November and reportedly supporting … Continue reading →
Watching Asian dramas for over three decades not only has seem my tastes age as I have but it’s also followed plenty of stars from their own leading man/woman days to their playing dad/mom days. Most recently I did “what tha what?!?” when I saw Han Chae Ah playing Yook Sung Jae‘s MOM in Gold Spoon. I should have seen … Continue reading →
Well this is a totally juicy “what the hell happened behind the scenes” rumored casting scuffle. Today an entertainment blogger claimed that reputable sources are saying that C-actor Jing Bo Ran has “ran off” from the soon to start filming xianxia drama Hidden God. What is he a runaway bride lol! He was confirmed last month and the filming was … Continue reading →
