Evan Lin Yanjun’s Plagiarism Allegations
Evan Lin released the first track from his new EP 《1995》titled “Waiting For The Whole Winter” 《等待整个冬天》. However, just a few hours after the release of the song, the musician Lu1’s company issued a statement claiming that Evan Lin’s new song was suspected of plagiarizing the lyrics of their song “Can’t Take You” 《不能带你去》. Indeed, when fans compared the two songs side by side, it appeared that three whole lines were lifted word for word from Lu1’s song. Sony Music and Evan Lin has issued an apology. Read more here.

New Drama: DouLuo Continent Starring Xiao Zhan & Wu Xuanyi
The official release of the first trailer for the drama “Douluo Continent” starring Xiao Zhan as Tang San, and Wu Xuanyi as Xiao Wu is highly anticipated by many. Following the release of the drama’s first trailer, it became a trending topic on Weibo within hours.
After all, Xiao Zhan’s strength is built by facing strong public opinion pressure. His acting skills will once again be put to the test in this new drama, with the male protagonist as a brave warrior-figure, who despite his calm demeanour remains selfless and caring. While Wu Xuanyi remains a relatively new actress, fans are excited to see her play the role of the highly spirited Xiao Wu, whose strong sense of justice make her a women respected by many in the story.
Perhaps the best news for fans so far is that Xiao Zhan and Wu Xuan Yi will be dubbing the drama with their original voices instead of having voice overs like most big production dramas have. Get more details on this exciting drama here on our site!
