Love Around Episodes 3-6 thoughts
I’m feeling rather disappointed that Love Around is not doing anything for me. I neither feel this elusive feeling of excitement nor anticipation whenever a new episode rolls around. I often wonder if it’s just me, since I have been following DF’s Blog and on their main site (plus browsing through the tags on Tumblr)…

After the meeting, Liang Liang goes to Qi Yi’s office to try to convince him to withdraw the warning. But of course it falls on deaf ears. She leaves his office disappointed. Qi Yi: Cheng Liang Liang, you have time to hassle me. Why don’t you use that time more wisely to work on your…

Dragon Gate photocall, where is Melvin Sia?
Yesterday (10th), the press were allowed to visit the set of “Dragon Gate“, with the leads Tammy Chen, Sunny Wang and Alice Ke in attendance. But the other lead cast member, Melvin Sia is absent. When he finally arrived, the press had already left causing much shock for him. So… was this deliberate or just…

I’m ready to jump ship to a trio of Friday drama diversity
I’m still watching “Love Around” and “Love SOS”, but don’t feel particularly motivated to write about them. Why? They’ve both been mediocre at best. “Love Around” marginally better than “Love SOS”, but both have its issues. If someone was to axe both dramas right now, I wouldn’t feel devastated. Sad maybe, for the loss of…

Continuing from the last episode, Liang Liang agrees she will work on a new proposal. Just as she’s leaving, she gives him breakfast, because he has to take his medicine with food. Since she didn’t know whether he’s allergic to anything else, the sandwich doesn’t have eggs or mayonnaise. Liang Liang is at her…

Just You Episode 1 Recap
Out of the three currently airing dramas that I’ve watched (Love Around, Love SOS and Amour et Patisserie), I am least interested in the actors of ‘Just You’. Normally I wouldn’t even watch it, but since I’m not really loving the others at the moment, just thought I’d give this one a go and it…

Love Around episodes 1-2 thoughts
I have a habit of struggling to keep posts precise. It used to happen when I was trying to keep to the word limit for assignments. I just tend to write way too much. But I guess for Love Around, this isn’t going to be a problem because… there isn’t much plot development going on?…

Love SOS Episodes 1-2 thoughts
I still haven’t started on that ‘wrap up’ post on ‘Borrow ur Love’ yet, but let’s just say despite its many flaws I still enjoyed it way too much and it was a really intense experience for a newbie recapper like me! So unless something brilliant happens in ‘Love SOS’ or ‘Love Around’ – I’ll…

Upcoming TW Drama Dragon Gate’s first teaser – Crazy. Action. Hair flick!
I was intrigued when I heard about upcoming TW drama ‘Dragon Gate’ (飛越龍門客棧), the first idol drama made by TVBS starring Sunny Wang, Alice Ke, Tammy Chen and Melvin Sia. It’s supposed to be a reimagining of 1992 HK movie “New Dragon Gate Inn”. (Well, I didn’t see that movie so I can’t comment on…
