[News] 你是男的 我也爱 I Love You Even If You Were A Man’s Adaption: Like Love Season 3 Confirmed + Huang Li Ge leaves Splendid Culture Media

I love you even if you are a man 2

I haven’t been updating myself with news of the Like Love series adapted from Angelina’s online novel –I Love You As A Man– recently. Pleasantly surprised to find out that Season 3 of the Like Love series, which is also the last of the series, is confirmed to be released on 25 September 2016 following a long period of uncertainty on whether the third season will be out. Time for fans to celebrate!

Update: It’s been brought to my attention that Like Love 3 has been cancelled and upset fans are using this post to attack facebook fan groups. Please note that this news was dated Jan 2016. I haven’t been keeping myself updated but it seems that somewhere in March or April, it’s been announced by the director that Like Love 3 will not be filmed.

[Recap] Variety Show: We Are In Love 我们相爱吧 Ep 3: Siwon & Liu Wen cut

We are in Love cover

It’s been months since We Are In Love finished airing. In fact, just a couple of days ago, Marian posted about how Season 2 is going to premiere on Valentine’s Day! And this means… this uncompleted post has been sitting in my drafts for 8 months — No exaggeration! Since it seems like I will never finish recapping the entire episode (yes, I’m still ‘busy’ trying to do up that Legend of Miyue recap but I’m currently hooked to Go Princess Go, a wacky and fun web drama), I decided to release the Liu Wen and Siwon portion that I had already done up instead of letting it continue to rot in my drafts. Enjoy some sweet lovey-dovey oppa time!

2015 WordPress Annual Report

Hello everyone, we are reaching the end of 2015. My drama portfolio this year was lacklustre so I’ll let Marian post all the Year-End Round-up posts while I share about what was actually a big deal for me this year – blogging about dramas and variety shows!

The number 1 big milestone would of course be the fact that we bought our own domain and moved to http://www.skimmedmilkdrama.com.

Other than that, the WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog so we can see what other records this new blog holds as well. It has pretty interesting statistics including the number of views from each country and the most active commenters.

Later that day, co-host Dee Hsu (Xu Xi Di), who is more commonly known as Xiao S, also announced that she will be leaving the show as the departure of Kevin Tsai will make it pointless for her to continue on without him.

Drama Rankings 6/12/15 – 12/12/15

Someone recently told me that Legend of Mi Yue seems to not be garnering a lot of attention on English sites and wondered about the response on Chinese platforms. Well, the answer is here! Seems like the entire country is paying attention to Legend of Mi Yue even though review varies. (There seems to be some criticism about how it doesn’t compare up to Legend of Zhen Huan). Still, it’s undeniable that Legend of Mi Yue is topping a lot of the categories by a large margin 🙂
