Producer/director Dr. K has released "Dream or Real" Chinese Edition, a new scene featuring an entirely Chinese-speaking cast, which was released on ManyVids on July 4. The production marks Dr. K's first time participating in a performance as a director and also acting in a non-sex capacity.

"Dream or Real" Chinese Edition

Dr. K, who has directed over 300 scenes for American audiences, stated that "Dream or Real" is unlike his previous "cheating housewife" scenarios. The 35-minute scene, filmed in Santa Barbara, was written, produced, and directed by Dr. K. He also co-stars in the production, appearing under the name Louis Wu, playing the husband of Nicole Doshi's character.

The scene features Nicole Doshi and Leo Vice in the lead roles, with the entire cast speaking Chinese (Mandarin). Dr. K noted that this is the first time he has personally participated in the performance as a director. He also took on an acting role, portraying Nicole's husband, Louis Wu, in a non-sex capacity. The narrative centers on Nicole, who seeks excitement outside of her marriage. Dr. K described the scene as "full of love and conflict," exploring themes of maintaining marital passion and the trap of marital derailment. The story follows Nicole's affair with Leo Vice, a friend of her husband, with Louis Wu choosing to "accept it silently after witnessing everything."

Dr. K mentioned that the scene incorporates NTR, or netorare, themes, which are prevalent in Japanese cinema. Netorare is a term describing when a lover cheats. He expressed a desire to create a more in-depth scene in Chinese, stating, "I hope to make a more in-depth scene in Chinese and I did it."

Casting and Production

Dr. K selected Nicole Doshi and Leo Vice for the lead roles. He praised Doshi, calling her "one of the best female performers in the porn industry right now." Doshi, a native of China, was living in New York before beginning her career in adult entertainment. Dr. K also highlighted Doshi's bilingual abilities, noting that she "comes from China and speaks great Mandarin." He described her as a "good friend and one of the most passionate performers in the industry." Regarding Leo Vice, Dr. K stated that Vice is "in great shape" and perfectly fit the character he envisioned for the title.

The director stated that "No one in the U.S. porn industry has ever tried this before." He described "Dream or Real" as "perhaps the first all-Chinese language porn scene" aimed at the American industry, and the first of its kind to feature major U.S.-based Asian talent. Dr. K expressed his belief that "most people in the current porn industry in the U.S. have never seen a scene completely in Chinese." He hopes that "Dream or Real" will be the first and will allow more people to "see the unique charm of Chinese performers and stories in porn."

The scene's narrative explores the complexities of relationships, with Dr. K stating, "Both parties are trying to protect this relationship as much as possible, but in the end Nicole chose to have an affair with my good friend Leo Vice, and I chose to accept it silently after witnessing everything."
