[First Impression] Goodbye My Princess (东宫)

Based off the romance-tragedy novel Eastern Palace by Fei Wo Si Cun. Goodbye My Princess is led by newbies Chen Xing Xu and Peng Xiao Ran. So far, the pacing of the drama has been quite fast and you get to know lots of the conspiracies that are going on between the two kingdoms. But I am very much enjoying the drama because of the two leads. Even though they’re new to being leading characters, the chemistry between them is amazing!

Movies Release on Chinese New Year 2019

 

It’s that time of the year again where highly anticipated films are being pushed out for the biggest holiday in China, Chinese New Year! We see films from highly anticipated directors like Stephen Chow, Han Han, Alan Mak, and Ning Hao this year.

It has been a tradition to watch movies on this long holiday and usually Chinese New Year films top the box office bringing billion of yuans.

Last year, the box office raked in more than 5 billion yuan and the number is expected to climb up this year. This year, we have over 10 films that premiere on the first day of Chinese New Year (Feb 5th). Let’s see which one will come out on top.

[Feature] Supporting Female Leads Who Deserve Some Recognition

Most of the time we focus so much on the female lead, her character growth throughout the series, and her romance with the male lead, that we often forget that there are also supporting female leads that deserve some attention as well. Whether she’s the one who is fighting with the FL for the ML, having an unrequited love towards ML or someone else, or has her own agenda in the drama, you can’t deny that sometimes she just outshines the FL in one way or another. Personally, there have been many times where I truly rooted for the second female lead more than the FL because I saw more potential from her and I liked her character more. Unfortunately, not all supporting female leads get their deserved happy ending. But, regardless, here’s a list of supporting female leads that I personally rooted for and really liked because of their badass attitude, selfless love, and unwavering convictions.
