Comment:


The drama "Lady and the Liar 千金女贼 (Official Trailer / Long Trailer / Soundtrack)" started filming around November 2013, starring Hawick Lau and Tiffany Tang. Coincidentally, Yang Mi and Tiffany Tang are good friends, the latter was Yang Mi's maid of honour when she and Hawick Lau tie the knot on January 2014. I think Tiffany Tang is very pretty and looks cute with bangs (Also starring in drama, Perfect Couple and The Legend of Fragrance). From the producer of "King of Lan Ling", "Lady and the Liar" is set in the Shanghai 1930s settings. I quite enjoy watching Chinese dramas set in the early 1900s ever since "Too Late to say I Love You" and find the storyline of "Lady and the Liar" rather interesting. I love all the casts as well, hence am looking forward to this drama!
 (As I translated from Chinese, hence please pardon if there is any error, etc.)

    1. There are usually changes for c-dramas broadcast date (not confirm) although most finish shooting pretty early. *Sigh* Anyway, exciting trailer, isn't it?

  4. Wow thanks for posting this upcoming drama with HAWICK.....or more like HATTRICK for three great dramas in a roll (SWAK, great acting here, Lady and the Liar and Road up North) :)
    Im not too sure about Tang Yan in this role, as I like feisty and intelligent female characters thus Im rooting for DXH. I have enough of weak, stupid female characters who gets bullied all the while and need the man to help her out (that is why I have enuff of Korean dramas too silly and illogical) but Hawicks character here seems like he is reprising his role in SWAK, really like his portrayal of cool, reserved and bad guy type, he played it so well. Also Tony Yangs role looks quite promising. Hope it wont be aired in 2015....we will be getting mouldy whilst waiting!!! :)

  6. after reading the synopsis i found the drama's plot really similar to a manga I've read multiples times when i was little. turned out this drama does indeed base on that very manga that I've read. now, i MUST watch the drama. hopefully, someone will be kind enough to sub this in English.

  7. last drama I watch was "Fated to you". this one looks good, perhaps i'll start on this one. :)

  8. Watched the trailer. Somehow can't find the "chemistry" between Hawick & Tiffany. I like Hawick so much in SWAK (main drama). Here although his role is pretty similar to that of SWAK, cool exterior, but his coolness here looked unnatural compared to his coolness in SWAK. I dont know if you feel the same...or is it only me.

    1. Actually its SWAK that brought me to Hawick Lau, he's good in that drama. Hmm...I personally feels that Tiffany Tang not only has no chemistry with Hawick in Lady and the Liar, she also has no chemistry with Wallace in My Sunshine. Wonder why...?

  9. Actually i've watched Hawick's drama before but never really paid attention to him. It was in SWAK (main drama) that I thought he was really good there plus he really had chemistry with Ying Er in that drama. I read somewhere that Tiffany is a good friend of Yang Mi, so maybe both are awkward when it comes to "intimate" scenes or love scenes, lol. Anyway, for those who like watching this sort of setting, I recommend you to watch CRUEL ROMANCE. Both the leads have great chemistry there.

    1. Yup, Tiffany and Yang Mi are good friends. Agreed, the chemistry of Huang Xiao Ming and Chen Qiao En in Cruel Romance was indeed surprisingly good!

  10. Hope to see Hawick & Tiffany on their next drama!
