The Cage of Love Episode 7 and 8


Stuff happens. Jiang Yu's being stupid but his stupidity cannot beat Cai Hong's.

The Cage of Love Episode 5 and 6


These two episodes are making me like all four leads (maybe not as much for Fei Fei). They all get a little bit more mischievous with one another, mostly involving Jiang Yu though.

The Cage of Love Episode 3 and 4


The Cage of Love can be such an off-putting name. It screams possessiveness. So if you really despise possessiveness, you might not want to watch this drama. But I like to mention the drama's really not bad at all. I quite adore it actually. Can’t they have used something similar to its Chinese title, 抓住彩虹的男人, which directly translates to ‘The Man that Held onto Rainbow’. And rainbow in Chinese is pronounced as Cai Hong. Ding Dong Ding. The man that held onto Rainbow is none other then Jiang Yu. And that’s exactly what Jiang Yu does (unconsciously) for these two episodes.

As I post this, I’ve already watched Episode 5 and I think I might just be hooked onto this show. Jiang Yu’s pretty cute with his petty jealously and Cai Hong is oh so smart. (:

The Cage of Love Episode 1 and 2


A simple summary: It’s Romeo and Juliet in the Republican era of China: Jiang Yu’s father is killed and Cai Hong’s father is responsible. And of course, these two, Jiang Yu and Cai Hong, are our star crossed lovers.

It’s a good start albeit typical. The drama seems to rely on the star power of the lovely Zhang Shuang and charming Hawick Lau but the storyline is engaging and wonderfully paced. The future angst is all set up but I'm not dreading it. I think I'm actually looking forward to how the hate in their love-hate relationship will develop from here. 

From what I know this drama will air two episodes every single day starting from May 26 and capping at 35 episodes. It will be a recapping nightmare if I do intend to stick to this drama. I don't know yet.
