It's October and we have a new slate of dramas! My favorite drama this year is She and Her Girls. This recounts story of teacher Zhang Gui Mei and her establishment of the first free all girl high school in China. It's definitely a winner. Meanwhile, Ren Jia Lun just keeps having duds with Love In Nirvana alongside Li Lan Di. Uyghur beauty Ha Ni Ke Zi looks right at home in Love in the Desert with the handsome Fang Yi Lun but the plot is rather lacking. Karen's most excited about upcoming Wu Xia drama Snowy Night: Timeless Love starring Li Qin and Zeng Shun Xi. Zhang Wan Yi and Ren Min star in The Rise of Ning, hoping to win some audiences with another period romance drama. Let us know your thoughts about these dramas!
Fan Xian and Wang Qi Nian initially thought they reached a dead in on clues for figuring out who ordered Fan Xian's assassination. But, they turn their attention to Si Li Li who is now highly suspicious. Using Wang Qi Nian's expert tracking skills, they give chase to Si Li Li who is attempting to leave the Qing kingdom
As it turns chilly this fall, we discuss 2 actress and 1 actors who've seen their reputations take a nosedive this year despite not having any dramas or movies air this year. Ning Jing showed her disregard and dismissive attitude towards the cast and crew during the France stop of Divas Hit the Road: Good Friends Season. Ru Yi's Love in the Palace was completely skewered this summer, with Zhou Xun bearing the brunt of the criticism. Her best friend, Chen Kun, could not escape Zhou Xun's orbit and was also ridiculed for his drama The Rise of Phoenixes. Listen to our latest episode to hear why these 3 in particular received such a public backlash this summer.
Just as we said summer was a bore, new relationship bombshells and news were shared this past week! Wu Jian Yan, fresh off her success from The Double, shared a photo on Weibo shocking everyone on her update. Actress Zhang Yu Qi roasted actor Yu Shi on a talkshow for cheating on her but there's so much more to his scandalous past. Huang Xiao Ming announced his first new relationship since his divorce to Angelababy. Listen to our latest podcast episode for all the news!
Fan Xian swiftly avenges his friend Teng Zi Jing's death. He is promptly captured by Zhu Ge of the 1st Bureau for disregarding orders, but is ultimately freed by the Emperor for his public actions
Summer is officially over and it was a rather muted one in the Chinese entertainment industry. There wasn't one breakout star of the summer. The Double, starring Wu Jin Yan and Wang Xing Yue, performed the best but the two leads fizzled out in the summer. Lost You Forever Season 2 was the biggest disappointment this summer with its poor plot, lack of CPs, and poor characterizations. Karen and Cathy discuss their thoughts of the performance of the dramas and the stars this summer!
In episode 13 of Joy of Life S1, just when everything seemed to be going Fan Xian's way with his engagement to Lin Wan'Er and bromance with Teng Zi Jing, things take a sudden turn. Fan Xian and Teng Zi Jing are ambushed at Niu Lan Jie with a powerful assassin from the Kingdom of Northern Qi. Teng Zi Jing dies protecting Fan Xian. Fan Xian is in complete shock at the loss of his friend. He finds solace with Lin Wan Er and tries to avenge his friend's death, only to hear that the Overwatch Council will release the assassin for political gain. Listen to our latest podcast episode on our analysis of this intense episode!
In August, Zhang Wan Yi and Wang Chu Ran headlined a historical romance drama Are You The One. Tan Jian Ci leads Go East in a historical comedy and Ding Yu Xi and newcomer Deng En Xi star in the historical romance Melody of Golden Age. All of these dramas have only been decent, a step down from the buzz of their prior dramas. We discuss other dramas that have aired in Aug and early September as well
Fan Xian and Wan'Er are both ecstatic to find each other's true identities as not only the person each other likes, but as each other's betrothed. Fan Xian starts to help cure Wan'Er's sickness with another late night visit with medicine. Meanwhile, something is off with Si Li Li.
In a recent bombshell post, Joy of Life actor Zhang Hao Wei, known for his portrayal as the Crown Prince, was revealed to have discussed prostitutes and potentially even establishing his own brothel! These voice recordings set off a whole firestorm with legal notices and declarations being posted all over Weibo. Will Joy of Life be in peril? Actress Song Zu Er who was softly canceled last year might be making a comeback after her company posted a statement that she's been cleared of any wrong doing, but is she really in the clear?
