ok I found the WeTV Philippines teaser trailer in Youtube (it's English subbed unlike the Chinese one), yeah you're right with the FL's bff and the actor seems show up early too unlike. I will just wait for the comments from the people who will watch first episodes. Duh that last second Lin Yi is such a teaser!

I don't remember GYW likes STM since Ep 1 in the drama, but I think I should give it a try for New. I mean after writing an article on him I would like to see him but I don't like the noona romance he's in his last drama. Should I give this one a try then. By the way, where is the trailer you're talking about on your original post. It's not on MDL yet

Give it a try and tell me what you think ;D. It's a good start when you like the J actors (both ML and SML I assume?), but you will fall for the J actress too.

oh my... I already picturing New is as dork yet naive as Lin Yi

oh ok... I only see the cast list and I thought Time (Kacha) is the SML.

What's the difference between the book and the original drama? Why drama fans may not like it?

Yeah when I heard about that I reminded right away I may not be able to watch Chasing the Light I have been waiting for so long. Though the effeminate male actors thing cracked me up tho after I watched AvenueX video

yeah... the only one new NRTA regulation I like is they will foresee the budget first for production companies not to overpay actors instead of using the fund to production cost to improve the quality. So hopefully that means we will get better quality dramas. But like someone mentioned in YT, there is always a way to get around that ;D

Too bad... but he has 2020/2021 movies does it mean he made a comeback?... are they subbed? Looking for subbed Taiwanese movies are so hard for me I gave up on some of them...

That's more like it... I didn't plan to write the Taiwan article after the last 2 with Japanese and Thai actors. But it's like doing justice to them. I could have written in the Introduction my opinion why Taiwanese actors and actresses don't get much appreciation because they are like second class in Chinese shows due to them being Taiwanese. Mostly get supporting roles only the most popular ones like Mark Chao always get main roles. Or they landed main roles in mediocre dramas with low budget and low promo. But I don't want this article to get political that's why I don't include my thoughts.

Then I should check out his dramas! Taiwanese dramas are good in the kissing department ;P

I agree with you regarding Greg Hsu. I wished I saw him more in dramas than SOOD. I watched his costar Patrick Shih lately in a new drama and he's very good there. Also someone just informed me a Taiwanese movie with Alice Ke that I waited for a long time is finally subbed. The wait is like 1 year I gave up!

who is Kai Ko? has it been a while? I don't remember but I too just started watching Asian dramas in mid 2019

that might be because they didn't get many roles in Chinese dramas due to tight competitions with the mainland actors, and Taiwan is lack of making (good) dramas

I do know what 'cute as a button' phrase mean... but who is George?
My goodness, you have some similarities with me:
1. I watched TSOMD. I even have that drama as the feature image on one of my articles. https://kisskh.at/article/my-favorite-drama-friendships-of-2020-historical-and-supernatural-011015995
I really admire the friendship of the characters in that drama
Yeah I forgot about Darren Chen being a foodie in TSOMD (I only remember the girlie part lol). I can't forget his pic holding a pig is so cute!

You know Fu Meng Bo is also a Taiwanese? When I was searching for this article I just found out that he is one!
Have you watched Darren in Meteor Garden 2018? That was his first drama I watched
I wanted to watch No Boundaries but many comments said it was bad. Not sure why...
2. I didn't have SLS though Ji Chong is very good and Xiao Zhan is my bias. But Prince Bo is too charismatic thanks to Darren Wang bringing up such a character, he is so perfect as Prince Bo. I just wished Ji Chong got a better match than that princess. I mean they should have more screen time to make us believe that they can be a couple!
What is butchered by the censorship in The Wolf?
3. You're not alone... when I was writing this article I was surprised of some names I didn't recognize... for example Jiro Wang. After looking up his works I saw Falling Into You title. I remember watching it and I thought it was very good and I remember Puff Kao, but I didn't remember the main actor!

now I think they have to pay those what you call it traffic stars/liuliang. At least in China. Some don't even know how to act but they kept being casted.

lol... your comment made me looking the drama/him up in the internet... after a bunch mess-up with the Korean and Japanese versions. It does seems like his cheeks were chubbier back then so he lost weight significantly? The hairstyle confuses me too. But it's no wonder if Jiro Wang had a plastic surgery. He looks very young for 40

no worries I like him too, first watching him in Let Me Learn Your Language, a Cdrama. That drama is so good but so under the radar!

so if you have slump TW drama is the remedy?

I don't even know he was born in CA! I don't watch the drama but what did he do in TPWY?
