This is for everyone who loved Qu Chu Xiao in Shining For One Thing, just like I did.
Thanks to Jennifer, who sent me the link to this so that I would be sure not to miss out. 😁
This isn't new, in that Qu Chu Xiao shot this for NeufMode九号摩登 in March 2019, but it's new to me, so I'm sharing.
I enjoyed this glimpse of broody, intense, badass Qu Chu Xiao, althoug...

This is a casual interview that Wi Ha Jun did for W Korea, and I like it because we get more glimpses of him as a person: pictures of him with his niece, pictures of him on vacation and the random poses that he ends up doing, his thoughts on how he dresses while on vacation, that kinda thing.
The more I see of him, the more I feel l...

Sorry I couldn't find a subbed version of this trailer, everyone, but on the upside, there's very little dialogue in it, since most of this trailer is just overlaid with music?
Our story world is one with some fantasy to it, in that gods, goddesses and mythical creatures live alongside humans. So, folks who like fantasy might be extra inclined to put this on their list?

Remember when I first shared a trailer for this show (here)?
It had looked all kinds of light and fluffy in that first trailer, but this trailer indicates that there's a lot more angst in our central couple's future, than the first trailer might have indicated.

This looks like it has the potential to be ridiculous and perhaps quite fun?
Show's premise is that a police officer (Greg Hsu! 😍) finds a red packet (money envelope), and not realizing its significance, picks it up - which is when chaos and hijinks ensue.
Because, in Chinese culture, if you pick up a red packet like that, it's most likely been left in honor of a ghost's desire t...

Uh, yeah, remember that initial trailer of this show that I shared (here), where we all agreed that this teacher-student romance looked and sounded quite dysfunctional, all-around?

After the initial Super Teaser (here), we've now got a full-length trailer for upcoming J-dorama "First Love," which gives us a better feel and flavor for what the show itself might be like.

Well, this already looks and feels on the heightened melodrama side of things, just going by the trailer alone.
Seo Ji Hye, Lee Sung Jae, Lee Sang Woo and Hong Soo Hyun star as four people attempting to achieve their various desires.

Sorry I couldn't find a subbed version of this teaser, you guys, but it's pretty straightforward, and gives a decent feel for what this show could be like.
From what I can tell, this one looks potentially pretty cute?
Yoon Park stars as a father who writes a reply to his daughter, in order to make her wish - that she would receive a reply from her favorite actress - come true.
Sorry I couldn't find a subbed copy of this one, you guys, but it does still give you a flavor for the kind of show this drama wants to be?
Generally, it looks like tension tends to run high, as our various first responders - from the fire and police departments - work to save lives.
Show is 12 episodes, and will air on Fridays and Saturdays on SBS, starting 11 November. Word on the...

These trailers give us a better sense of the story, and it looks like our protagonist Chan Mi (Shin Ye Eun) suspects that her twin brother was killed as a result of school bullying, and sets out to find out the truth.

I honestly hadn't been suuper interested in this one when it was first announced, because the premise just didn't grab me all that much, to be brutally honest.

Immediately, I feel engaged and interested, and I found myself glued to my screen through ...

This isn't a new thing, in that Qu Chu Xiao shot this for SIZE潮流生活 for its March 2019 cover, but it's new to me, to see this side of Qu Chu Xiao (or Wansen, as I am still thinking of him, in my head), and thought you all might like a look too.
I gotta say, he looks a lot more street-savvy with the dreadlock inspired look, and that in itself is slightly discombobulating. The ...

I have to admit that I'm curious about this one, mainly because I really enjoyed Victoria Song in Find Yourself, and she's the female lead in this friends-to-lovers themed story.
I kind of like the idea that after being oblivious to our female lead's feelings for him for a long time, our male lead (Timmy Xu) comes to realize that while he's been awa...

Since this is a trailer for the webtoon and not a full drama, this long trailer is as close to a live-action drama as we're going to get, with this cast.
It really does look like this could have been a flagrantly wild, dangerous, beautiful-yet-dysfunctional drama, if they'd wanted to make it?
Enjoy the Pretty - and then maybe check out the webtoon, if that's your thing?

I find this collab between Qu Chu Xiao and lululemon quite refreshing, because even though he's wearing lululemon in the clip, and it's stated that he's wearing lululemon at the end, I still believe his voiceover (his voice! 🤩) where he talks about staying true to himself, and finding himself in the peace and quiet.

Well, this one looks stylish and polished, just going by the trailer alone.

Uh, so the premise for this one, combined with the somewhat hot 'n heavy lashings in the trailer, is giving me pause.
It's a forbidden romance between a teacher (Tiffany Hsu) and a student (Edward Chen).
To make it even more messed up, the synopsis on MDL says that the student, who's a trouble-making gifted young man, starts bullying the teacher, but that their confrontations ...
