Tan Song Yun and Hou Ming Hao begin filming for fantasy drama Xiao Yao

Xiao Yao (逍遥) is an upcoming fantasy romance drama that is not based on a novel! So rare. XD. In the ancient times, humans and demons have lusted after a sacred spring of jade wine. Tan Song Yun will be playing two roles, the titular role Xiao Yao is a normal, carefree girl who finds herself entangled in the valley of demons. Her other role with opposite personality is a ruthless princess. Neo is quite the busy bee lately, he just finished Fangs of Fortune, and now he’s in all black once again to play the King of Demons. Lol! The two cross path as our heroine turns the demon valley upside down while our hero is the protector of the very same place.

First Official Posters for Fangs of Fortune with Hou Ming Hao, Chen Du Ling, and Cheng Xiao as filming wraps up

Previously known as The Story of Mystics, Fangs of Fortune (大梦归离) is adapted from the tales and myths in Classic of Mountains and Seas. Neo will be playing a demon lord Ying Long, which I’m gonna guess is modeled after the mythical dragon in control of rain and floods. He wants to die but doesn’t want to accept fate so is led down the path of rebirth.

The visual in this drama is pretty-pretty but it’s their BTS chemistry that is worth mentioning; dancing, singing, and playing around with Guo Jing Ming (one of the directors) too. They had a blast when it first snowed at Hengdian.

Back From the Brink with Hou Ming Hao and Zhou Ye finally premieres in May

Sorry for the lack of updates these past two weeks. Was sick like a dog. =/

Back From the Brink (护心) is adapted from the novel Heart Protection written by Jiu Lu Fei Xiang. The story follows our female lead, who was supposed to die long ago but was saved thanks to the “heart protection” scales (I don’t know how to translate that, Lol) and energy pearl from an ancient dragon demon. She’s then luckily accepted as a disciple at Chen Xing Mountain under her shifu – Daoist Priest, Ling Xiao, to cultivate. However, she stirs up some troubles and is then expelled from the sect (the beginning of the novel). Looks like there’s some feelings between disciple and shifu too. Now without a home, our female wanders jianghu and is kidnapped to be someone’s bride. That someone is the ancient dragon demon whose body was dismembered by his previous lover (oucchhh!). He immediately recognizes his important jewels in her body. He pleads for her help and she reluctantly gives in, and together, they travel around to look for his body parts, hoping to make it whole again before the big day comes – a war between the immortals and demons (and a revenge!). What will happen if the return of his whole body means taking away the things keeping her alive?

Angsty!

You can find the translated novel here at Nikki’s Sporadic Spores.

Airing 5/9~
