Double dose of Chen Kun in spy drama The Escape (Tuo Shen)

If you’re a fan of Chen Kun, this drama is for you. If you need convincing, check out the latest teaser! It’s hilarious as we see Chen Kun having fun playing dual roles (bros), one is a nerdy, straight-laced bespectacled man, the other is a street-smart lad! Female lead is Wan Qian (she’s everywhere nowadays!) and she plays a spy disguised as a female accountant with a secret mission to protect someone important. She meets Older brother after accidentally exchanging suitcases at the train station and becomes acquaintance with him. She later finds out his younger twin brother is an important figure to protect. In times of chaos and war, could the three find true value in the meaning of love, life, and faith?

Entrepreneurial Age’s Official Trailer: Huang Xuan’s journey from nobody to somebody

I confess that I rarely finish a trailer for a modern Cdrama but I sat through it for Entrepreneurial Age, surprisingly not dog-blood and looks pretty good with plenty of close-up shots and wide-shots for background and beautiful scenery. Huang Xuan cleans up well in his successful days and Angelababy looks perfect in all her own scenes. Zhou Yi Wei has hair here, lol, opposite from his down-and-dirty look in Tribes, and he’s paired up with Song Yi. Waiting for crackling chemistry from both pairings!

Merry Christmas to all! ♥♥♥

Sneak behind-the-scenes of Entrepreneurial Age with Angelababy, Huang Xuan, and Zhou Yi Wei

Entrepreneurial Age (创业时代) is the upcoming modern cdrama based on same-name novel written by Fu Yao, a real-life marketing strategist, according to Baidu. I like the cast, really like the main and supporting actors they chose for this modern project. Angelababy is not the strongest actor so hopefully playing against Huang Xuan will bring something hidden out of her, though she is a charming individual off-screen. Song Yi and Zhou Yi Wei round out the supporting cast. The story begins with our hero in the role of a software engineer, inspired by a new idea of a mobile app to send voice messages, he sets out to make it big with this small idea, getting investors and funding, and meeting our heroine who is an investor analyst.
