Xiang Liu and You (Yes, You)

 atmospheres:

unfortunately he's not an ectomorph nor very tall so every little bit of weight gain shows immediately on him, especially on his face and neck, and he's the type that gains weight easily and must watch what he eats very carefully.

Totally relatable. All I have to do is look at food and everything starts to expand :-).

 Kokuto:

I have to admit, when he said luosifen didn't have a smell, but a fragrance,

This is something that you would say about a dish that you loved that has a pungent smell. To you, it's a fragrance, to others it stinks :-). There are a few Vietnamese dishes that I adored that would fall into this category. Several restaurants near me have luosifen on their menu. I've been meaning to try it. We do have a noodle soup in Vietnam that also has snails in it, so I'm gonna see how they compare. 

 nathsketch:

Why are they making him become so thin? He better not get sick with all these ridiculous demands :(

 Kokuto:

If he had time, and the inclination, he could go back to working out a little and then eat more. He just is looking a little too thin right now, IMO.

He's looking quite gaunt; reaching the point where all you see when you look at him are teeth. I don't understand it either, he and pretty much everyone look better with some meat on them. 

I came across this performance recently, don't know when it was, but he looked amazing. Hopefully, he'll go back to this look.

I don’t know well stats about her popularity but I think Reba is really popular in China. I feel she has an big international fandom too. It's clearly not the same level as JJY anyway. Maybe she’s going to let it go but seems her fans don’t want after some changes in the script to favor male lead role. If the rumors are really true, I hope she won't give up after the ruin of TLOA, especially since she has decided to take another direction in her career to focus only on genres that win awards to be recognized. Anyway, his agency is wronging him it is so hard to be humble as a rising actor.  She’s literally her senior in experience too. We already have a slim chance of seeing WIK. This poor drama only survives despite bl banned but CZY need to stop his scandals. I think the release chances get lesser.

I read here:

Let’s hope if one day we manage to see WIK. They’re not going to pull this billing shit to our Tan. Someone know about billing in WIK? I would love to know to be prepared. 

I don’t want to say we don’t care about butchering eve but I only need to see this out forgodsake :((‘

My losing streak continues this year ... I tripped and fell yesterday and jammed up my wrist and landed on my face.  sigh.  I'm really not usually this clumsy ... cause I usually don't do much physical activities. lol

Anyway, I iced up as soon as I got home, and my face didn't bruise up or swell up.  But I think I sprained my left wrist so I'm not typing as fast or much.

That's rough Kokuto. Are you trying to get all of your bad luck out of the way at the start of the year? First house maintenance issues, then food poisoning, followed by Champloo stealing all of your cookies. Now this. 

 liddi:

I am truly sorry to hear about your fall. Really hope you recover quickly and completely. I had a fall last week too and ended up twisting my left foot badly, and my right one to a lesser degree. Thankfully no tears and it has recovered for the most part so I am mobile again. Please take care and hope you get well soon.

I had a few falls - happened while I'm doing my morning jog. Probably a sign from the universe that I need to stop :-). Twisted my ankle on one, and scrapped my arm , hands and knees in the other. And smashed up my phone real good. I'm getting too old to hit the ground so hard :-).

I hope both of you will recover soon ?

Do we need to start a new thread? 

Xiang Liu, I've Fallen For You

I hope you are all okay, tho. Thankfully nothing serious happened to any of you ❤️

Have you been following this fandom war between YZ and DW? Do you have any insight that you could share? I've been reading a few things on the Vietnamese Facebook groups and it's a mess and a half. However, it seems to be a calculated mess instigated by his team and designed to achieve a particular goal/goals. 

If this is not an appropriate place to discuss, let me know and we'll take it to messages. I asked in the spirit of curiosity to learn more about the how these fan wars work.
