Wow Rina, thanks so much for compiling all the links. Man I'm so behind, school is kicking my butt. But thanks for keeping this thread going. Basically just stalking now and no time to post and look up news and videos.

Oh hey i topped. Lol haven't done that in a really long time.

Xiao Shuang sleeping:

[gingerpeach]

^ Yanyan! <3 Missed you here. Wow the moment you post again you top haha.

I've seen that pic a few times and I keep wondering if that lady sitting beside her is her mom.

Here's another (older) pic of Xiao Shuang sleeping--


I remember in a fancam of the filming of a scene in the library (in MS), she was taking a nap on the floor (next to Haoming who was sitting on a chair playing with his nintendo SP ). She was sitting upright of course but she looked soo adorable. They woke her up when Zhang Han arrived to the set. xD

DL Links Recompiled
You know, after watching Dao Dhi Shi Shei I'm almost certain that the "Wo Yao De Fei Xiang" insert version of the song is sung by Zheng Shuang. I think she did the "Lalala" and "Oooh" ones too.

I'm pretty sure if she did those, the songs would've been released and publicized...

and as much as I love Zheng Shuang as a person and as Yuxun, she's not a singer and has a fairly weak, if sweet, voice. I honestly don't see how she can sing the lalala and oooh versions, especially the high notes of "wo yao de fei xiang."

[cfensi]

Zheng Shuang is soooo pretty. I always get amazed when I see that prettiness in her, because she doesn't really act like it at all. She's really shy. Of course, she's surrounded by really, really pretty classmates so I guess she doesn't really feel so pretty at school.

Oh, and hoistdacolors is getting settled in Spain right now, I believe...lets wish her well.


Edit: Oh, and snagging those download links for LJ with credit if that's ok.

[gingerpeach]

brightlight - I agree completely actually. She definitely has a lovely voice, but I don't think she's a great singer either haha. (Neither have I ever said I thought she was. xD) Especially after hearing her sing live on Ai Chang Cai Hui Ying. But I really think she did sing WYDFX. Before it was just netizens saying it and I didn't believe it, but after she sang that one line in DDSS, her tone reallyy reminded me of the voice in WYDFX. I don't know why they wouldn't publicize it or give her credit for it, but the netizens supposedly found out from somewhere.. this I'm not too sure about.

cfensi - I'm sure the others will be fine with it. Gahh I know right? She's soooo pretty. But I've seen quite a few netizens' comments that say she's just average or not a "mei nu." o___O Weird.

[cfensi]

I think she is indeed pretty, but the way she presents herself makes her seem more like the cute quiet shy girl in the corner rather than in your face pretty.

But in a few years when she gets confidence she'll be beautiful. She reminds me a bit of Liu Shishi and Yang Mi. Can be serious and elegant for work, but off screen, they're rather shy and so, so girly.

[gingerpeach]

Yeah, I hope that with more experience she will gain more confidence. That girl doesn't have enough confidence in herself! It especially shows in interviews. Ah well, she's still young and has lots of room to grow. I think she's quite inspirational though. When she talked about her auditions for drama schools and the MS role, I think the most *awesome* (lacking a better word at the moment) part is that she was willing to give it a try, despite how much she thought she wouldn't be successful. Because of her will to try she was able to get to where she is now. It's pretty amazing what can happen sometimes if you just take a chance. And that's what makes me like her even more, actually. She's just like any other regular girl.



^ From Yin Yue Ji Jie Hao that's supposed to air on the 3rd on HunanTv @ 9PM. (Recorded back in mid August.)

I'd love to see Xiao Shuang do more dancing. In 2005 she won 1st place (gold) in a dance competition in Shenyang.

091001 MTV Tian Lai Cun interview
http://tieba.baidu.com/%D6%A3%CB%AC/shipin...5fe1c96139f95a/

Only about 10 mins., second part airs tomorrow. Recorded sometime before Haoming cut his hair. Watch it they mentioned things we've never heard before. (You know how their interviews usually cover the same topics and all..) And it's nice to see them smiling and laughing so much, such a big contrast with their last few interviews & autograph sessions (during which they barely even smiled ). Haoming's laugh is sooo adorableee.

Something interesting is that the interview was linked on someone's Sina blog, and on the right side module you can see that Zhu Zixiao (he has a Sina blog) had also visited that page! Pretty awesome, that lucky fan.

Zhang Han's Sohu bday event got rescheduled from the 10th to the 16th. (His bday is on the 6th.)

Look at this super pretty PSed pic of Xiao Shuang in HZGG costume.

[Poop-Shoop-A-Loop]

^I didn't mind the dubbing for ZH, it sounded close to his real voice, but is just a tad bit more deep and masculine. It suited his character well...

The only dubbing that I didn't like was HM's...

But it'd be good watch it with the lips matching what they say for once...

I liked the dubbing voices for all the characters ..and agreed.. except for HM..maybe cause it was SOOO deep? hahaha. It was weird learning how their voices sounded like when I watched their public appearings XD A lot of you say that their "dubbed" voices were better suited for the characters.. how so?LOL. I think it's just 'cause you're used to the voices =/ but I'm sure if they do decide to use their real voices in the sequel, over time you will get used to the voices (but it'd be a weird discrepancy for new viewers who watch the first one, then the second one and are like !??!?! totally different voices?!?!?! )

During the scene where Yun Hai sang a birthday song to Yu Xun.. I COMPLETELY MELTED and replayed it several times. But I couldn't help but think "gosh I wish I could hear Zhang Han's real voice singing that song!" cause I wanted to rip the audio and listen to it over and over ROFLLLLLLL

[gingerpeach]

A lot of you say that their "dubbed" voices were better suited for the characters.. how so?LOL. I think it's just 'cause you're used to the voices =/ but I'm sure if they do decide to use their real voices in the sequel, over time you will get used to the voices (but it'd be a weird discrepancy for new viewers who watch the first one, then the second one and are like !??!?! totally different voices?!?!?! )

For me it's because I know what their real voices are like that I think the dubbed voices suit the characters more. I think out of all the main characters, Yuxun and maybe Shangguan could have done w/o the dubbing, but the rest needed it to achieve a more complete & solid image. The actors' voices alone probably were not enough to complete the image of the characters that the directors and scriptwriters had in mind, you know? Like Zhang Han's real-life voice is soft and 温柔 (gentle), which doesn't quite suit Yunhai who (on the outside) is loud, playful, loquacious. And Shao Han and Peng Yang who played the role of characters who are much older than themselves (Yunduo and Yuxin respectively), besides the hair and the wardrobe, the dubbed voices were used to achieve that overall image. Ahh I suck at explaining these things, but I think you can see where I'm going with this haha.

I love their real-life voices to death but I still hope the characters' voices will be the same in the sequel. I know it's a little.. unfair (? can't find a better word) that their voices ended up getting dubbed, since voice is also part of acting and requires just as much skill and effort, but.. gahh for the sake of consistency and the images of all the characters that have already made a place in our hearts. xD I keep saying this, it really wouldn't be the same if their voices changed.


Anyone bored? HunanTv is currently re-airing MS. Watch it live here: http://www.baikantv.com/hunanweishi/

Edit: Gah I have got to stop overlooking things. In that scene where H3 is in the same class as Yunhai, the teacher actually mentioned that both grades were sharing the class that day. Whoops.

[Heroine.Mei]

gingerpeach (Rina? Or I just can't read xD)

Thanks for sharing all the news and info... It's like my ultimate source for MS lol... I'm too lazy to stalk the tiebas... they move way too fast for my mind...

And I have to agree with the dubbed voices... they have a wide variety of accents... and i think it's more organized this way. and it suits their characters... how can someone be rich and have such a country accent? not that country accents are bad (they're rather cute), but it takes away from the image. yeshuo's dubber was very good i thought. it sounds very close to real life. altho i wasn't relaly feeling shangguan's... seems a little too forced and fake... duanmu's is decent... and yunhai's and yuxun's were good. although i can't get over how they exchange "w" for "v"... like all the wei's are vei's. *shudder* LOL. I have a problem XD

man they're airing in HD soon? did i buy the DVD for nothing? :X

[gingerpeach]

^ Hehe yes, you can just call me Rina. Yeah they started re-airing yesterday already, I wonder if they will re-release the DVD. xD How is the video quality? I'm still saving up enough money to buy it..


Zhang Han's latest blog entry
http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_5a79d9600100fcw8.html

Ooh Zhang Han, Zhu Zixiao, and Zheng Shuang made a last stop to Xiamen to wrap up their 3months of promos. Like they didn't actually have any events planned there but they all wanted to revisit again, since that was where they filmed most of the drama. Awww Zhang Han puts it really nicely ("从哪里开始真的就要从哪里结束吗?"), so just go read it haha.

091002 MTV Tian Lai Cun interview
http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/tZ0Gekka21U/

I'll have to watch it later, but I read that there's still more to come tomorrow. (^That is part 2 of their interview, part 1 is linked in my post above.)

Yin Yue Ji Jie Hao airs tonight over there! Supposedly it's gonna be a very fun episode. Ahh JR (from Taiwan) is one of the hosts, I love him! So excited to see him interact with the MS cast.

[Heroine.Mei]

^ I'm actually very disappointed with the video quality. I expected it like ultra HD but it wasn't... I feel like it wasn't even as good as the ourdvd version. the only good side is that it has no ads. of course i only skimmed the first disc but i highly doubt the quality increases with time... but somehow i feel like the more i watch it the more the quality won't bother me anymore XD but yea i would wait to see if they would release the dvd in HD. if not... buy this one i suppose lol

[hoistdacolors]

Yesterday, I finally moved into an apartment in Madrid. My roommates are super cool. We are going to ikea tomorrow to eat hot dogs. haha.

Anyways, working on episode 7 at the moment. Have you heard anybody wanting to create softsubs for this drama?

I haven't been online lately and just seeing some ChenYu pictures got me sucked back in.






their expressions are so funny.


And I have to post this even though it's old. It's their beijing performance I think. Wei Chen is too pretty in this.

[gingerpeach]

Welcome back hoistdacolors! ChenYu is <33.

Gah really? Did you buy it from yesasia, or? Sometimes when I buy Chinese dramas I buy them at a local video store and they come in these paperback cover slip thingies. Upside is that they're really cheap, downside is that the video quality is disappointing, since they're not the *official* dvds released by the production company.

hmm i guess they're making MVs for every song on the soundtrack? is the 2nd soundtrack still coming or are they just gonna do ms 2 instead?

[cfensi]

Yay, I'm glad you're settled in Madrid and find everyone accomodating! Spanish people are cool.

Thanks for the pics too...Wei Chen does look pretty there.

And here's some Zhu Zixiao bc he needs more love (I didn't realizing you weren't posting the other guys Rina! Lol...I just though Zhang Han had more fanatical picture-taking fans or something)




I thought the expressions in this pic were so funny:




I'll post more later when I have time...

[gingerpeach]

And here's some Zhu Zixiao bc he needs more love (I didn't realizing you weren't posting the other guys Rina! Lol...I just though Zhang Han had more fanatical picture-taking fans or something)

Lol! Heheh yeah, I've even mentioned it a few times. I get most of the pics from Zhang Han and Zheng Shuang's tiebas, which explains why I mostly post pics & news updates about them. xD Occasionally I will go check out the other three guys' tiebas but usually I'm already overwhelmed with stalking ZH + ZS's tieba + Tianya threads haha.

Xiao Shuang爱的华尔兹 perf. cut
http://tieba.baidu.com/f?kz=650685714

She sang live over the track. I think they all sang their songs live that day. Anyway, the show was recorded back in mid August.

Edit: Just finished watching YYJJH! It was pretty awesome. So they introduced themselves normally, then introduced themselves using the personality of their characters. Then they had a segment where they "bao liao"-ed xD abt each other. Four of them wore headphones (w/ music playing) while one was asked questions by the hosts, then they kept rotating till all five of them got asked. It's funny because most of them answered Zhu Zixiao as the person who is most _______ rofl. After, they made a call out to a He Jiong lao shi? Is it.. I'm not sure who he is, but he's someone who knows the five of them very well. The hosts asked him questions about the four guys, like who do you think is the most shuai haha. When they asked him about Xiao Shuang, he was like, "Ta shi wo de bao bei, ta zhen de shi ge bao bei, tai ke ai le.." (something like that) and said that her personality is very "豪爽" and has potential to be a modern-day "女侠" in the future. (Again, something like that..) Awwww haha. <33 Then after they did the thing where they say their lines the normal way, then the accented way. When Zhang Han did his w/ the accent, Zheng Shuang even answered w/ the same accent (as Yuxun) lol. She's so cute!! Mm then they did scene reenactments + character switching. Veryy entertaining haha. Zhang Han & Zheng Shuang did this scene from the drama, then Haoming & Wei Chen did the Ye Shuo + Ye Mian arguing scene (w/ Wei Chen as Ye Mian.. it was really good), then Xiao Shuang + the hostess did the scene (w/ the two hosts butting in here and there, it was hilarious JR! <333), then Zhu Zixiao + Zheng Shuang did the scene again w/ ZS as the older sister haha. They said Zhu Zixiao is never really bad-tempered so they wanted to see him give it a go.. he kinda failed XDD lol. Zheng Shuang was good both times. Mm then they did this ktv-like thing, basically each of them took turns singing w/ a fan from the audience (and Wei Chen & Haoming sung together too). Gahh I can't get over how good Zhang Han is at singing. Zhu Zixiao sounded really good in there too. *__*

So yupp, all in all, a good watch. Woah is it just me or does the text look all funny there? ^

[AKIRADOWN]

^^ what was the question that they ask and they asnwer that is zhu zixiao most of the times, i didn't know what that means...

and yeah most times actually ALL the time when they ask her question regarding the four of them, like who's the most handsome or whatever, she always avoid the question haha

and i love it when haoming speaks cantonese wish him safety in the US .....nice to know he's actually in the same country haha 2 states distance

mingshuang anyone?

[AKIRADOWN]

it's the weekend i got nothing else better to do here's some pictures








i thought it was so sweet of him to wipe her sweat for her duing the filming for the basketball practice scene, or is that originally in the drama? i fast forwarded alot of parts so i might have miss it
