When love is so strong that it becomes stifling,
Would you escape or confront it?
The most touching, dreamlike love of the century.

And to liven up my mood and my LJ... Summer's Bubbles promos!... or I guess they are now calling it Summer's Desire. Though... given the plot... this is only a small step up in happiness. lol Angst and drama and a serious love triangle... this drama is looking better and better. Peter's character seems like suuuuch a moody arrogant asshole ♥~ He's looking mighty fine too. And Xiao Ming... words can not express his deliciousness. Barbie and Xiao Ming actually look quite cute together.

God I hope this is one of those shows that makes it really hard to predict how it will end and who she will choose. I foresee someone dieing though. lol




( PROMO SHOTS!!! )

And growing fast.
After a few weeks of work... 26 profiles is a bitch to do really... the comm was finally ready to officially open last night.
Resie and I are still working to upload the piles of goodies we actually have, which is a lot.
But we are open for business now.

Get all the My Hero boys love at jiayou_myhero !! :P

Happiness is Definitely Strong (幸福一定强 xing fu yi ding qiang) productions shots!

Their are also shots of Ming Dao outside the hospital they were filming at but they are super blurry and grainy so I don't want to stare them. :P  Plus, while I adore Ming Dao, he's handsome, cool, and charming while still able to act like a cute little kid, it's no longer very thrilling to me when I hear news of him being in a new drama.  He's in a looot of shows and this year alone... wow.  But the draw of "Happiness" for me is... It's Li Yi Feng first major role and I have grown quite fond of Annie Chen.  Despite being very new to acting, Annie has had some surprisingly great scenes in "Prince + Princess 2."  She has a very raw emotional expression that just made my heart ache for her character and made me cry.  So, I am looking forward to what she does with a new role.

On to the Feng shots!  Yummy glasses... he's looking quite handsome.

My wonder twin is truly evil sometimes. I think she uses her future powers against me on purpose. She waits until I go to bed to put together massive Yi Feng picspam so that while casually browsing my friends page in the morning I get a lung full of hot minty liquid.

( On to the drama related news bits... )

I found this rather funny.

I had downloaded the Chinese Paladin 3 OST a few days ago. I've been reading about it for weeks so I knew it was an interesting collection of artists. However, I hadn't actually listened to it fully until this morning.  I had my iPod on shuffle and suddenly this song comes on. The opening rift sounded familiar but I couldn't place it. I knew it was something Japanese and I felt like it was the opening song to a TV show, but I couldn't recall what show so I looked down to read 我做我的王 by 兄弟联 from 仙剑奇侠传三. That's not Japanese. Is it a rip off... on the Chinese Paladin 3 CD?

And then they started signing and I started laughing.

GOGOCLUB - Be My Own King (Wo zuo wo de wang)

Not a rip off. A cover. A cover of what...? Why super cute chibi detectives of course. Apparently GOGOCLUB did a cover of Answer by the Japanese band FLOW, which was the opening song for the show Tantei Gakuen Q.

The original.

So the question is... which version is better? lol

 I also find it a little funny that this song is on a wuxia OST.  Even if Chinese Paladin is not your typical wuxia.

A run down on upcoming dramas. What I'm looking forward to, what I couldn't care less about..
In order from... Farthest off to closest to airing... Or at least what order I THINK they will release in.

( OMG loooong )

I was looking forward to this episode all week even though I didn't have the time to watch it. The previews XD... the gang goes to a hot spring.

( Naked time! )

I'm sick so I'm bored... ( more Miss No Good. )

I can't help myself. I just keep staring at this picture and thinking... no wonder the show is about waring schools. Of course the faculty would not be able to keep them from fighting if they can't get them to wear the same damn uniform. Not one of those coats is the same length. I would say it was just a "fitting" thing if the one guy's coat wasn't sooooo long. Hell they can't even get the guys to button their uniforms up.



( More KO 3anguo picspam... )

Wow it's been a while since I've watched some Miss No Good...

( Mmmmm Will and Dean are yummeh... )

I think I've waited long enough after finishing the drama to post my thoughts on it without screaming... constantly...

The short: If you like Korean Dramas.... you will like this Chinese Drama. lol

The Long:
( Cut because Resie hates spoilers... )

Seriously...

I've been watching for news releases about The Concerto since I learned it was being made. Eddie Peng and Lee Wei in the same drama is like an awesome overload. While both have been in one or two idol dramas, they are so far from being idols. They usually prefer deep shows with actual plots, human drama, and a need to actually act. This is why I love them. So few of Eddie's shows were actually subbed by fansubbers because of this. I know, so sad. I love Eddie and Lee Wei's "serious" acting so of course as soon as there were trailers I couldn't help but jump all over it... but now I'm so confused as to what the advertising department is up to.

The first three trailers we dramatic. One focused on Eddie's story arch, one for Lee Wei's arch, and one that had both of them. But the music was dramatic and the shots were emotional. And then... yesterday they released a fourth trailer... and it's the exact opposite. It's got happy music, it's funny, and it makes the show look light hearted.

(  So which is it? Emotional drama? Or cutesy romance? )

I finally got around to finishing Fated to Love You. Yes Resie, you can gasp and mock me for being slow.
The last few episodes were hard because it was sickeningly sweet. I can only handle so much of Ethan's irritableness charm before my head explodes.

The end was total BS though...
( Under the cut since it's spoilers for those who haven't watched it... )

A running dialog of episodes 4 and 5... ( expect randomness.... )

Zou Ke Qiang: NOT A SUSPECT No change.

Zou Ke Jie: SUSPECT So, the failure tried to kill himself only to fall into a coma.  God he's unlucky.  Can't even kill himself right.  For most people trying to kill themselves after being accused of murder would be really suspicious.  For Ke Jie... it's just his sad puppy nature.  His whole excuse for not saying anything was because he was keeping someone's secret.  Combined with the flashbacks of Yi Jing talking about keeping each other's secrets... It just reinforces the theory that she did kill herself.

Yang Ren You: SUSPECT No change.

Zhong Yu Wen: SUSPICIOUS No change.

Lin Jia Wei: SUSPICIOUS  Ok he's officially bumpped up to suspicious to me.  Strickly speaking, he actually hasn't done anything suspicious, but his reaction to Yi Zhen telling him about the photobooth shots of Yi Jing and Ke Jie was weird.

Yi Jing: SUSPECT. Re: Zou Ke Jie.

As I mentioned in my last post. I started watching Bump off Lover. It's a suspense and mystery drama.
Since Resie seems to enjoy watching the show fuck with me as I try to figure out who killed the twin... I'll leave my running speculation public.

Before I get into that though... I have to take back all the bad things I've said about Angela. Well... other than she's too freaking anorexic. She's not a bad actress. It's the shitty idol drama writing, not her. She is actually pretty good playing the twins in BoL. Granted the dead twin is still beyond crazy...

So in the first two episodes both twins are alive and they are setting up some of the complex relationships and giving possible motivations to people.

( These are the character's connections and my suspects to date: )

Even with ninjas... we are not slouches. Clickeh!

While Aaron proves the emotionless KO and XF characters were NOT actual acting skills in work with yet again the same character (boring much?), Xiao Gui reminds me why I love him. Cute, quirky, an idiot, and everyones bitch... in a way.

While I admit Aaron is nice to look at... his character is a little dry and I found myself motivated by the fun side characters Hui Hong and Fu Hao, much like with Rolling Love (Wasabi and San Ceng are love.). Granted Rolling Love had the added fun of imaging how easy it would be to re-edit the show to make it a gay love story between Jiro and Danson.

The surprise cast members make it fun to watch too. Though I suppose you have to watch as many TWdramas as I do to notice. Just in episode 01 there was the bitchy mix girl from Summer x Summer, I love her. Two of the guys from Bump off Lover (which I just started watching before my FC lol).  I know the girls from KO One and X-Family get cameos later as does Jin Bao San! (I ♥ Bao San.)  It makes me curious to see who else will show up.  For some reason I really want Jason/San Ceng to get a cameo. lol

(Resie can just ignore this post since I know you don't want to know. :P)

I've been putting off watching the first episode of Miss No Good (to see if it is even worth my time) because... well the outer appearances of the drama are scary. And then Tweeds freaked me out more when she did her running commentary while watching it. But after chatting with Fufu yesterday, she talked me into giving it a chance. She reassured me the Fur Ball, formally know as Rainie Yang, gets a complete makeover (Like it makes a difference for her though. She looks tacky even when she's supposed to be pretty.) by episode 5.

( Thank god I have a high pain tolerance... )

... That I am becoming increasingly fangirly over Armor Hero. And when I'm fangirly, I have to spread the disease.

Armor Hero? What's that, you say?
Chinese toku! XD

Yes, that's toku, as in cute boys (usually) doing spazy and dorky things while also transforming into suited superheroes and kicking bad guy asses... only from China... and staring cuties from the My Hero search and Prince of Tennis drama (disclaimer to Resie: I do not admit to having watched PoT but since I'm like the only person I know who has My Prince and it's more or less the same cast... I am using the more heard of show. :P).

*bounces around* I waaaaaant it!

Cast shot!

Guo Shuai, Juck ♥, Jarvis, A Shi (I think. I don't know him very well so I'm not too sure on his name lol) and Xu Xu.



Visit my wonder twin's LJ for more info on the show, cast profiles, the boys' blog links, PICSPAM wooo, and more organized obsession. (You have to suck up to her though because it's F-locked to seal in all that fangirly flavor. lol)

*Puppet's secret motive to stealing content from Resie's LJ: to spread Armor Hero awareness and love. Since my readers are quite different from my twin's readers. Yay for broadening demographics.*
