The World of Dogu begins filming with Zhang Dan Feng, Hu Bing Qing, and Ady An

AHHHHHHHH!! I’m so frustrated with how the cast switched in and out within 10 days. I thought Polaris was punking my butt here at work in the cbox. Now that I saw the rumored OTP in Tian Ai and Yan Kuan, how could I unsee the angsty perfection they could have made onscreen?

*silently sulk*

Booting Ceremony 8/26/16:

Zhang Dan Feng as Emperor Wen. The upside of this casting is he finally gets to shine! The story focuses more on Dugu Qieluo, known as Empress Wenxian (文獻皇后) of the Chinese Sui dynasty. They married young and he reportedly stayed loyal to her until she passed away, having the least number of concubines among the Emperors.

Hu Bing Qing jumps to another lead role back to back. I like Bing Qing… but she’s very young… The character is supposed to be 16 so it makes sense but but….. sigh… Her hair. She went to Chusen and asked tips from Xue Qi…. Lol.

My girl Ady An finds herself in a second lead role, playing the lonely older sister.. What? Noooooo!

Oh, is that Ba Ye? No more tomb-raiding action for you sir? Ying Hao Ming.

    Hu Bingqing must have serious backing to land lead roles without having any fame.. also, why isn’t Zhang Tian ai getting any new projects?? I thought she was popular after Go Princess Go

      Hu Bingqing is one of Tangren’s fav at the moment (the other being Elvis), so they’re getting lots of lead roles for her.

      I’m confused why Zhang Tian Ai hasn’t been casted in any dramas since Go Princess Go! The last I heard, she was filming for a Hua Xu Yin movie adaptation, but that’s about it :/

        Tian Ai also has the webdrama My Fair Lady, which no one paid attention to when I wrote about it. Lol.

        But things are looking up, she’s in a few rumored projects, one has got to be it.

    Kaptain, there’s an update! There’s another drama in the works called 獨孤皇后 and being produced by Huace. Maybe Yan Kuan and Crystal are tied to that one?

      It’s soooooooo stoooopid that they would produce two adaptations of the same historical figure around the same time. The one you mentioned Empress Dugu Qieluo now has Chen Qiao En name attached. T___T Maybe Crystal can at least play a villain?

        I’m all for Chen Qiaoen if she finally stops playing Mary Sues, but Crystal’s image seems to match more with this character.

      Haha it’s her dubbed voice that gives off that impression but dude Imma follow Qiao En’s version regardless of future casting or at least I’ll give it a try, given I haven’t been able to get past episode 3 of Swordsman– she’s not a Mary Sue here! I’ve longed for her to return to her strong-independent-woman-roles. But now that I know the character is meant to be 16 ahem well. As youthful as Qiao En, 16 is pushing it :p

    Im really disappointed omg… Tian Ai would have been so perfect as Dugu Qieluo! This drama would be a great opportunity to push her fame further since I don’t see her in a drama that makes her memorable except Go Princess Go. Really disappointed… Tian Ai please appear in an ancient drama! I miss you on screen!!!

    Hu BingQing’s baby and young face just doesn’t strike me as Dugu Qieluo. The name itself sounds so 霸气 already and this drama is mostly about the Empress. She doesn’t look like an Empress…

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, to me Hu Bing Qing does surpass many actresses in terms of looking prettier, just haven’t seen her acting yet…but I wasn’t too surprised that she gets many lead roles lately.

    • 16 thoughts on “The World of Dogu begins filming with Zhang Dan Feng, Hu Bing Qing, and Ady An

      lol. i don’t think anyone is calling her ugly yoyo. she’s very pretty in that drama with vic. everyone thinks so. it’s more she doesn’t look like an empress and her acting is still very raw for taking up such a heavy role.

      • 16 thoughts on “The World of Dogu begins filming with Zhang Dan Feng, Hu Bing Qing, and Ady An

        I know… I didn’t say anyone call her ugly tho, sorry if there’s misunderstanding. I haven’t seen her acting so I don’t even know anything, just saying she looks pretty, that makes it convincing for her to be taking leading roles lately. It’s not that hard for any pretty lady to play empress, if they look too horrible then yeah, I would agree we need to be more convinced in that case. I think it’ll be just fine.

          I like Hu bing Qing at whirlwind girl, really impressed with her at 20 years again trailer and feel flat at her acting in the latest trailer with vic zhou. ^^

    I wonder if hu bing Qing and hu ge are related?? Maybe this is the reason why she climb up to lead actress so quickly?

    • 16 thoughts on “The World of Dogu begins filming with Zhang Dan Feng, Hu Bing Qing, and Ady An

      nope, they are not… it’s likely because of other reasons she’s being promoted like this :\

    Why is Ady An in a second lead role?!!? She is already an established actress and does not deserve to be given a role she is too good for. Sigh. So disappointing….

    I have nothing against Hu Bing Qing, but she lacks experience compared to Ady An and definitely still needs to refine her acting a bit. But whatever…. In the end, I’m still fond of these two actresses (but more for Ady).

What do you think?
