This is from the second season of Ode to Joy (and yes, I will be FFing thru any part that includes the annoying character Ying Ying) and Andie has a new love interest. The character’s name is Bao Yifan, played by a guy with incredible dimples and a whiskey and cigarettes voice, by the name of Yang Shuo and here he is, stalking her in Thailand dressed like a maharajah!

If he weren’t so damn charming and sincere about being totally gobsmacked by her, and willing to just let her keep her secrets (til she’s ready to share) and a good cook, he’d be annoying. But since he is those things, his scenes with Liu Tao are the best part of the series.

Oh, and Wang Kai.

Of course.

Jin Dong is in it for cups of coffee (or is that tea and sympathy?) but it looks like he gets to continue being nothing more than the loyal pal and boss to Andie. That’s okay. He looks just fine 🙂 and it’s fun playing “spot the cast of Nirvana in Fire” too!
