It's been a while since I watched a wuxia drama and hence, I was happy when I found out about The Moon Brightens For You (明月曾照江东寒). Although I'm not a great fan of the main leads, I was willing to give this a try to get my fix of martial arts fighting scenes. Suffice to say that this is worth the time but don't expect it to be particularly memorable either. Well, at least for … [Read more...] about The Moon Brightens For You Review

Dance Of The Sky Empire Review
Dance Of The Sky Empire (天舞纪) has been released for a few months already before I finally found the interest recently to sit through all the 28 episodes.

But if you are a Xu Kai fan, then this is definitely a drama that you would want to seriously check out. My Dance Of The … [Read more...] about Dance Of The Sky Empire Review
