Excited! It’s nice to recap a Li Ying’s drama again (can’t let Ryu have all the work fun!) I think I’m armed with enough peace to accept everything this show gives out. Except, as I learned in the past week, remembering names. Heaven, you are cruel! How many characters are you intending to have?! Even a monkey has a name… Call me old, but when they push the limit past 5 names, I need a chart and a highlighter. Lol.
Already, the show is out for the hero’s blood using the tried-and-true method of killing off the protagonist’s loved ones and leaving him in a strange and hostile environment. But our underdog is foolishly kind and like attract like. Pretty good for a first episode.
They are definitely going all out to promote this series! Their press conference is impressive! They have limousine lined up and arriving on a red carpet with flashing cameras and a group of excited reporters on the side. The posters hung at the venue indeed have August 2nd imprinted on them so there we have it guys, a date from the production themselves! Moreover, enjoy some live performances of the songs and a long extended trailer. ^__^
I do have a sincere request to throw out there… any volunteers to recap this series for AVV? Please contact me!
Nice!! The song gives me mixed feelings mainly because the beats remind me of the good old days of themesongs back in 2000s, though it hasn’t struck the right spot for me yet. I know many didn’t like Richie Ren‘s performance in The New Adventures of Chor Lau Heung, but I absolutely adored his beautiful love interests in that version. And the themesong sung by him remains in my fond memories and playlist till this day. I just need to replay this song a few more times to really, really, love it.
What a happy drama title! LOL. Once Loved You Distressed Forever (我曾爱过你想起就心酸) is the drama adaptation of a novel written by Zi You Ji Guang. It’s described as a pure love story between a young girl and an older man (aka uncle ajushhi!) as he watches and guards her from afar while she falls in love with his friend (?). I don’t know the exact details yet cause I’m at work and can’t access Baidu/Chinese-related webbies. Balls! But according to older reports, they negotiated three months and changed a lot of the story in order to lure Korean actor Jang Dong Gun into acceptance. xD His leading lady is Tina Tang. Another lead role, good for her!
Is it only me but the closer we come to July, the most anticipation I create for The Legend of Chusen? In the beginning, I was pretty lukewarm with the series, but now I’m counting the days off. Temporary air date has been rumored to be July 17th on HNTV. They released a BTS video a few hours ago with some more stills (of the same cast members, Lol.)
Another compilation and I would like to call it Part 3 to the busy weekend and probably the most exciting one for everyone! Things in motion! Trailers! Teasers! Previews! BTS! The Making! Some of these are revealed before the festival and some after. It’s crazy how many press conference took place this past weekend. Have a sneak peek/feel of your anticipated movies!
