Belle's Top 20 Asian Drama Actors; #15 - Mike He  
Sorry guys. I came home at midnight yesterday and I was exhausted so I wasn't able to post anything. My dear f-list, expect a (very spoilery) review of the Twilight movie some time soon. :)


Profile
Name: 賀軍翔 (贺军翔) / He Jun Xiang
English Name: Mike He
Also Known As: 賀小美 / He Xiao Mei
Age: 23 turning 24
Birthplace: Taiwan
Height: 180cm
Charm Points: Killer smile. Crinkly eyes. Signature smoldering stare (that he should totally use more often in photoshoots! XD). Signature mullet that surprisingly grows on you (note: it actually looks pretty good in him). The posterboy for the ultimate bad boy image (we ladies love the dangerous guys) and he's really good at it! Emo bad boy, really irritating but inwardly goodhearted boy, he can do them all. :P He's not afraid to look dorky...so adorkable. His fun personality on and off cam makes me grin like a maniac.
The Magic of Mike He: He's just so good at being a bad boy! He's one of those actors who get typecast into a certain character and therefore continue doing roles like that. But the difference is, Mike He always brings something new to his bad boy persona. And he's just so charismatic and LOLarious all the time that you can't help but love him. Not to mention the smoldering stare. Truly the only one of its kind (you have to see it to believe it; unfortunately, it's difficult to see him like this in his photoshoots but give his dramas a try if you haven't already). One other great thing about Mike is that he has great chemistry with whoever his love interest is (and I'm not just talking about Rainie Yang :P), now that's a real charmer.
You've Probably Seen Him In: That hit TW-drama, Devil Beside You, which was based on the manga Akuma De Souro (which I haven't read). He plays Jiang Meng, the school troublemaker. A girl who was giving her letter to her crush found herself standing in front of him instead (woe, her crush failed to see her). This is one crazy drama that'll surely bring out a lot of emotions in you. What I love here is the chemistry between Mike He and Rainie Yang, which made everything work whatever they were doing and whatever situations they found themselves in. It's one of those dramas I was only curious about at first but when I started watching, I got hooked. 0_0
You Should Check Him Out In: That rollercoaster of a drama, Why Why Love. Mike He plays, surprise surprise, a troublemaker who pulls a Master/Angel coupon from the heroine Jia Di's raffle box at a fair. It's actually more complicated and less silly than it sounds but just that premise is enough to hook you. XD A bit melodramatic and really unbelievable sometimes (I mean, the coincidences just keep piling up) but all these fade into the background because of the hilarity, cuteness, and sizzling chemistry of RainiexMike. I also loved Kingone's character here and routinely felt sorry for him, one of those dramas where you root for Mike He but feel your heart break for Kingone, anyway. Highly recommended. Also check out Love Contract with Ariel Lin playing opposite Mike. ;)
Why He's On My List: Alternately cute and handsome, Mike He isn't just a pretty face. He plays his bad boy characters to the hilt. And he does well. :D His crinkly eyes and signature smoldering look are really enough to put him on my list. XD I also love his uncanny ability to have a lot of chemistry with his leading ladies.


Mike here loves sports. <3


LIke kayaking dorkily with a friend...


...and boxing...


...because his idol is Iron Man. Who has this really cool, uh, robot arms. That could, uh, double as boxing gloves.



But boxing gets tiring so Mike says, time to chill...


...and stare off into space a bit...


What's outside the window?


Oh noes! Rabid fangirls!


"Maybe if I try to look as dorky as possible they'll stay away from me!"


"Yup, the dorkier, the better."


"Maybe if I wear this pink shirt with weird black straps on the sleeves then pose femininely like this, they won't recognize me!"


Change your hairstyle first, Mike, they'll recognize you!


"Okay, okay! I'll pose for you!"


Here's me posing...


Still posing...


...Oh, look, Mike in glasses. <3


And now for a mini fashion show...


...feauturing Mike in a hot pink shirt (and tie)...


...which made him feel queasy.


Uh oh, don't laugh with other girls, Mike. And remove that hand around her waist!
The rabid fangirls won't forgive her you! XD


That's my hand, right?


So then this other random girl said, "Marry me!"


Mike gets a really pissed off look on his face...


And I mean really pissed off.
But he still looks awesome. *awe* 0_0

I love Mike. He completely blew me away in "Love Contract" and continued to do so in "Marry Me". It's a shame that people only mainly know him for DBY and WWL because those dramas didn't really allow him to show what he's capable of doing.

He's also such an honest and kindhearted person. Definitely someone I respect.

Speaking of Marry Me, I've been meaning to check that out. :) Would you mind giving me a capsule review?

Mike He is love. <3

JGS is one of my favorite drama actors now. <3<3 He's really too cute. For me, the drama is good. It has just the right amount of melodrama, cuteness, and seriousness that I like. :) And I agree, the soundtrack is awesome.

Isn't the guy in the second pic down "(kayak) the guy from Fated To Love You?

Also, yeah I loved him. I loved him in Why Why Love. Wasn't that big of a fan of Devil Beside You.

*sigh*

Although I was watching a scene the other day and his teeth are horrendous.
Belle[info]itsplashes on December 23rd, 2008 02:30 am (UTC)
I actually have no idea but he does look like Ethan. XD

Why Why Love is addicting. And Devil Beside You will always remain in my book because it's my first Miike He drama. XD

and his teeth are horrendous
Rofl, he does have that chipmunk-y kind of look on his teeth. :P
