Nothing Gold Can Stay Discussion Post Week 1: Episodes 1 – 12

So many dramas I want to watch but no time! How to find the door to the 4th dimension. Or the clone machine.

If you’re curious, this drama airs every single day of the week, 2 episodes per day, one episode on Sunday. The ratings kicked off really well, both stations over 1! If it keeps increasing, this might be the next big drama in cdramaland.

Air dates confirmed: Sun Li’s Nothing Gold Can Stay, Zhang Yi Jie’s King Is Not Easy

Sorry for the site downtime guys, I’m gonna expect more sudden downtime until I can get this sorted out. On the one hand, I don’t feel like AVV has grown, but on the other hand, resource is being eaten like hotcakes. Building a community is hard, building an active community is even harder.

New Promos: Sun Li’s Nothing Gold Can Stay, Dilreba’s The King’s Woman, Zhang Yun Long’s Xuan Yuan Sword Cloud of Han Dynasty

It’s hard to focus on one drama per post when they churn out news endlessly throughout the day. Of the three dramas featured in here, I’m not sure which one I will watch. Nothing Gold Can Stay have weird coupling chemistry going on, The King’s Woman looks twisty and I don’t like mean lead guys even if he’s Zhang Bin Bin, but Dilreba looks stunning in all the stills, and Xuan Yuan Sword: Cloud of Han Dynasty…. I’m iffy about everyone’s okay acting. Lol.

Am I too hard to please? Or too jaded for dramaland?

Jane Zhang sings for Lost Love In Times OST, Second Trailer for Nothing Gold Can Stay

The above still is hilarious, Chen Xiao is purposely trolling Sun Li. I’m surprised at the arrangement of the trailers released for Nothing Gold Can Stay. The first one features her heavily with Peter Ho, and now we get to see her with Chen Xiao in the second trailer. He still looks like her brother, with the way she manhandles him in every scene. XD As for Lost Love In Times with William Chan and Liu Shi Shi, we have a peek at its themesong, sung by Jane Zhang. It’s so soft and soothing, I didn’t expect it. Sounds oh so…..pretty? Lol.

Happy July 4th!

Sun Li and Chen Xiao’s Nothing Gold Can Stay releases long-shot trailer

It is an interesting trailer, one long-shot of Sun Li wandering through the night and visiting memories of the past. The chemistry thermometer is not what I want it to be! Peter Ho while plays the second male lead has more chemistry with Sun Li than her male lead, Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao looks like a younger brother around her. Lol.

UPDATE: Forgot to add that the actors will be using their real voices. No dubbing!
