crazy over JY.
For his lost love, Jerry once thought of jumping off the sea and his friendship with LZL is impossible to turn to loveKnowing his own pessimistic nature, and allowing the reporters to be surprised, he promised, "I will smile often, and I will look for my sunny feelings." Yesterday, he was interviewed by 7 Japanese TV networks, and although it was hard, he had to be sunny at all times, and change into different clothes. But he did his best in cooperating with them, to get the Japanese media's pretty good comments. Loves to cry Jerry Bao Long cried emotionally in JapanThe highly emotional Bao Long doesn't know how times he cried in his lifetime; the most visible was in 2001 at the TVBS-G entertainment news with Tao "Tao Zi" Jing Ying's special TV interview. Because he can't stand showbiz pressures, in the footages he was seen crying. He also got emotional and cried like rain when Vanness called him up for the first time, when the two talked about their album release experiences. Too emotional, he already cried 4 times this year This year, Bao Long one after the other cried at the Victory Party of "The Hospital", in the F4 HK Concert, and 3 times more while chatting and eating out with friends. The other day, he went to Tokyo for a Fan Gathering. At night, he went with out on a dinner with the Taiwanese media and again after some wines, he began to tell his experiences in the shooting of "The Hospital" and cried again. He recalled, "One day when I was in the hospital filming the scenes for the drama, there was this couple who rushed to the emergency room. The husband looked dying fast, but I saw his wife cheering him up, and cried out to the doctor to save her husband's life, that life like a loving couple, helping each other in a life and death scene…" This scene still moves the viewers until now, and while Jerry was talking, his eyes suddenly turned teary- red. Remembering he once thought of jumping off the ship Before he cried, the wines must have warmed up his ears and that he decided to tell about his "rebel" years then, "When I was serving the military, my girlfriend of 4 years dumped me.", "I never thought I would get really popular! When I served in the navy, I had spent all my two years in the naval ships, and with a lonely heart, everyday I would really look forward on talking to my girlfriend and family, and one day she came to talk to me at the phone and asked for a breakup. "Like the dark thundering days, this struck Jerry very much, and went with sorrowful pains, his experiences all showed in his eyes.. Jerry said" Looking at the seas, I really thought of jumping off the ship at that moment" Luckily, these thoughts immediately left his mind and proposed marriage to his girlfriend. But she also rejected it, and the then young Bao Long also cried once again. Talking about LZL, he almost cried againEarlier night, media asked him if he would mind talking about LZL. Bao Long thought for along time and barely smiled and said that before when he was still a model, he had many male and female friends, and everyone were his good friends. Once a friend, its impossible for friendship to turn into love, especially because he is very passive. He likes to secretly love from afar, and only when a female would initiate, it might develop into love. Actually, he was lucky enough that he had held his tears this time, or else, Bao Long will end up in the hot news again crying for LZL. "Jerry Yan wave" swept Japan, but who could have imagined that this man who has thousands of fans once thought of rebelling by jumping off the ship to kill himself! Jerry once rebelled, and everyone all knew that maybe he just remembered his past. Earlier night, after gulping down two glasses of whisky, Jerry finally opened his heart. He said that at that time he was serving the navy, they traveled to the vast seas daily. Every two months, his most wanted thing to do was to make his phone call at the upper deck of the ship to talk to his girlfriend. He had not thought that after being excited on this next call, his girlfriend's first words would be "Let's break up". That night when he talked about it, his face went down and bitterly smiled to say, "I really said to her, that I was really thinking of jumping off the ship then!" In order to pull his girlfriend back, the then 20-yearold Jerry Yan surprisingly proposed marriage, thinking that this will touch his girlfriend's heart. But his girlfriend refused and also frankly revealed that there was a 3rd party involved. Jerry said," It took me a long time to bear the pains. One day I just thought that if we made up, it's possible that she might turn back again and find another man, so what shall we do? "At that moment, he finally calmed down. Jerry said that lacks self-courage. Moreover, as soon as talks arise on his feelings, he can easily force himself into it again, thus, in facing his feelings, he is often at a loss. In fact, according to him, with his condition and position, being in showbiz, his feelings should reflect and talk on lot of nice things. Jerry also frankly said that after he became famous, his ex-girlfriend tried to return to him, but his rumored girlfriend has always been only Lin Zhi Ling and even said that people must not loose their youthful dreams, and that Jerry is simply as pure as a jade. And so, he finally started to come out of his shell! Jerry said that he can let his heart fall for the girl. He has no special traits to look for but he likes a woman with a generous (natural) personality. In case the woman initiates to propose to him, he won't mind and won't reject her. In other words, those who wanted to pursue Jerry, don't be shy, and bravely let it out to him!Had Jerry thought of LZL that he suddenly cried?Very easily gets emotional, Jerry takes hard to free himself from the character he portrays. In filming "Meteor Garden," it took one year for Jerry to break away from Dao Ming Si. In filming "The Hospital" he must fight his feelings and face hospital affairs as Su Yi Hua, undergoing continuous surgical procedures and also getting caught in a love triangle. After the shooting ended, it took two months before he gradually regained himself. Yet when he remembered filming for "The Hospital" and actually been in the parting scenes, the first happy chats over drinks with the media, actually reached to his emotional crying! Talking about his real experiences, Jerry suddenly said," During the shooting, I experienced the same pain like that" Reporters replied," You always say that but you never talked about anything, so everyone always assumed its about LZL. He thought about it for a second, and then bravely said, "You know it? That time when we were at the Hospital..." that Jerry just said two sentences, and suddenly appeared sad and came up with that choking sighs like he was to cry. He said he saw a wife who knew her husband would turn vegetable but would not give up. Everyday, he learn shocking lessons of life and death situations in the hospital, inside and behind the drama. He said that the more he filmed, the more he got pessimistic, and very unhappy. Jerry revealed that because he got famous too soon, all is too late to prepare. Before he Meteor Garden, he acted as a bit player as a gangster in a serial movie but his few scenes were all cut. He also became a model coach's assistant. . Six years ago when he first came to Japan, he went to buy for his company from a designer, for which he carried his luggage like a "tie tui (iron leg)", a Japanese tag for "non-stop walking." Now that he is a top Taiwanese idol, all people are now after his moves, and ask him, does he have the courage for the challenges? He said that as long as the script and director is good, he has no problems. Reporters said that his shyness is one of his special strong characters, so he said, "Ai Yo, that is cheating the people!" With full planning, he must learn languages, learn how to act and how to dance. Jerry also wished that Taiwanese idols can begin to unite. He said that He Jun Xiang is really good. Li Wei taught him many basics in life, and Taiwanese idols will not go to other places, if only they would work harder, the future has unlimited possibilities. According to Lian He Bao's reporter, after drinking some whisky, Jerry got sentimental when he mentioned about what he saw in the hospital when filming TH. It took him two months after finished filming to get back to his normal self. Dr. Su's betrayal by Dr. Guan in Episode 17 was similar to his own experiences when he was serving the navy. At that time, when he was serving duty on a ship, the only he wanted was making a call to his girlfriend once every two months. When he once called his then girlfriend, the first thing he heard was "Let's break up" from his girlfriend. He tried to amend it by offering to marry the girl, but the girl refused and admitted that she had met another man. At that time, he was so hurt that he even thought of just jumping off the ship. After he calmed down, he realized that even the girl went back to him at that time, she might betray him again in the future. After he got famous, that girl contacted him again.
We should all thank that girl for giving him up at that time.To attract foreigners to come to Taiwan, Zhong Jin Tourism Board invites F4 to film an idol drama.Korean Drama Da Chang Jin (Jewel in the Palace) has made South Korea increase its tourism, making them earn a lot from money spent by tourist, this has stimulated the interest of the Communications group of the Tourism Board, they have now decided to follow the example of the Koreans, for this endeavor they will be spending NT$85 million and sought F4 idol group for this project.

As soon as he set his foot at the Japanese soil, he immediately created a record name of thousands of fans welcoming at the airport, clad with 50 security personnel, and a solid earning of $10 MILLION in the Fan Gatherings. In addition, he also set a record in eating 3 full meals in just 6 hours! Because he was in a HIGH mood, as soon as he entered the Tokyu Hotel and read the announcement for the "Hail for the Crown Prince having a new son", he joked, "I was immediately struck with happiness on the Crown Prince's new born son." For the safety of its passengers, Narita Airport prohibits large fan groupings at the premises. However, for their idol, Jerry fans would disregard even the King's laws. Even if Jerry would still arrive at 4 pm, they have started gathering as early as 10 am yesterday morning, and rapidly increased by the thousands. "Jerry goes to Japan"Washed away the happiness" from Crown Prince's new heir?"Early in the morning, large groups of fans had already gathered at the Narita Airport. Some were already holding their streamers and some were wearing Jerry's merchandized products, and while waiting they were exchanging talks, like it was starting an all-elder female meet. When Jerry appeared, Japanese fans were well-guarded and also highly warned. Rushing in to Jerry's side were Taiwanese reporters, mistaken to be as fans when a security pushed them to the lines. Jerry hasn't returned to Japan for more than a year now, but his popularity hasn't ceased. Japan's Dentsu Group, Inc. (Dian Tong) has already bought the rights for Jerry's lead drama "The Hospital" and will start to air it before the year ends. A new album was also released in a limited edition CD package. Jerry Yan will be in TV interviews today at Japan's FUJI, ASAHI TV and many more TV networks. For his First Fan Gathering, Jerry frankly said, "I'm fully looking forward to it!" Sources say that Jerry would approximately bag close to $NT 10 Million talent fees for the three events." Jerry Yan visits Japanand almost caused rebellionJapanese sisters' most-loved eldest F4 member Jerry Yan, after he had set-up his own company, proceeded to Japan to have his First Fan Gathering. Japanese fans turned the airport in chaos after thousands of them came. 50 security personnel came to protect Jerry, where Narita airport have requested him to follow the "Bae Yong Jun (JK: the famous Korean actor) rule" of no handshakes and stop-overs to avoid chaos. But Jerry was bent to follow his fan's warmth, and still stopped to shake hands, passing through the loud screams inside the airport, with the chaotic scene straightly described as " rebellion". Narita Airport guard revealed that there were only 500 fans when they just started early morning, but as the time of Jerry's arrival nears, it blew up to thousands. As soon as Jerry's "arrival" plane landed, fans at the Narita Airport started to clap their hands and wildly cheered. When Jerry first entered the customs office, loud screams continuously ruled already. The pretty good mood of Jerry ignored the "handsome Bae rule" and first showed his smiles and then waved his hands. He went on to hold the hands of the fans and said "Thank you" but the security had to take him away to keep order. Jerry said, "It's already more than a year that I haven't been in Japan. The warm fans had followed in Hong Kong and even in Indonesia. So I hope it won't be this hard again for them anymore." In the next two days, Jerry will be at the Tokyo International Forum Hall to hold three Fan Gathering events. He will sing two songs and also interact with the fans. Preparing for this event will earn him at the very least $NT 2.1 Million on each of the 3 fan gatherings.Youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb4gvj-zWfs (Link to watch Jerry in Japan.. video is by Mr. Haru, he takes video at the airport.His video clip's always very good and wonderful!Jerry is walking slowly.Please enjoy his video clip!Many thanks Mr.Haru.)TW newspaper scans - Sept8Credit to Mamy of www.nbbbs.com and www.yanchengxu. net

From Lian He Bao (Sep, 8, 2006)Thanks to Sfen. According to her, five big newspapers in TW all sent reporters to Japan with Jerry this time. Expecting more news...
Jerry was interviewed in Japanhttp://udn.com/ NEWS/MEDIA/ 3506447-1456160. jpgJerry had dinner with reporters in Japanhttp://udn.com/ NEWS/MEDIA/ 3506449-1456163. jpgF4 is back
The original Taiwanese boy band F4 is due to release a new album next year, its first in almost four years.
The pop group comprising Jerry Yen, Vic Zhou, Ken Zhu and Vanness Wu first came into the limelight in 2001 with Mandarin series Meteor Garden, which sparked an Asia-wide F4 frenzy.
F4 is still together and has a new album in the wings.After the series ended, the guys had been involved in different solo projects, giving rise to rumours that the group had split.
But the four have stressed repeatedly that they did not break up, and proved that recently by appearing as a group.
On their upcoming album, they said that it will be different from their previous releases because “our vocals have improved a lot since then”. Tokyo Trial: Market Response is very enthusiastic, number 1 in the box office. Tokyo Trial a movie based on authentic historical records, since it's nationwide screening on the September 1, 2006 it has received a very favorable opinion from the moviegoers; the market response is enthusiastic. In Shanghai, it has surpassed box office records during the same period. This afternoon, many residents of the city took advantage of the weekend and watched the film at the Guo Tai Cinema. Due to the ardent response of the moviegoers the said cinema will increase theater screenings from the original two to five. So that a lot of people can watch the movie, they lowered the admission price of 50 yuan to 20 to 30 yuan. Three generations of family members watch the movie together. Audience: My mother, maternal grandmother and I watched the movie together. This morning my grandmother said that she wanted to see the movie with us. Tokyo Trial narrates to the audience the war crimes that were done by the Japanese. It makes the audience know instantly this part of history. The movie also arouses the public to feel more patriotic towards the country. Audience: It really shocks, it's really serious. There are many things in the movie that you can't find in books. Some parents say that this is a movie I would want my children to watch. It will be good for them to know this part of history. Father: I will surely bring him to watch the movie. My purpose is to educate him. Since its nationwide screening September 1, Shanghai has been screening the movie more than the usual average times. The box office response has been very gratifying. Shanghai's Dong Fang Film Company General Manager Qing Jian Ping: Almost all theaters have a queue for this film, about 80 to 90% occupancy which is really high, its higher than most foreign filmsThe Hospital serial gives rise to a wide-range of forum talksand strips off the power struggle under the white jacket.As The Hospital heats up, discussion topic starts. Because book author Hou Wen Yong was once an anesthesiologist at the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH), discussions accused the plot and characters of the drama series and the book is referring to NTUH. A former NTUH senior doctor also said that many of the events and cases depicted in the series are almost the same that happened at NTUH. The Hospital book unfolded the power struggle in a hospital. Just like ordinary people, doctors in white suits also fights for fame and fortune, self-greed and political scheming. But because Hou Wen Yong was once a NTUH resident official, others then thought that he wrote the book in reference to NTUH. The man who loved to scold people Dr. Tang, was actually a senior doctor at NTUH, who was later appointed as President of another hospital. At the time of his writing, NTUH had just appointed its medical department head as its new Hospital President, so it led medical groups to talk about its contrasts. Others believed that the presidential daughter Quin Jin in the drama was referring to a former presidential son who was admitted in NTUH. A former resident doctor at NTUH said that the story followed the events during the term of Hou Wen Yong when he was a still a hospital doctor there. A single look at the at the events "needs no guessing who it is" He said that because the characters come and go, the plot is almost too real, but Hou Wen Yong smoothly changed the characters in a different role, and also other departments. In the drama the Surgical Department head was so disappointed with his chosen doctor that he threw his shoes off when the doctor was in the OR. This former NTUH doctor said that throwing the shoe is just like "throwing the scalpel" in NTUH. Another scene is when a wife knelt down to the new Surgical Department head so she could be released. According to this doctor, this plot is absolutely not fabricated. Furthermore, the story pictured doctors receiving money wrapped in bags as an ugly practice, a real case when a patient sued in May 1983 that NTUH doctors allegedly receive bribes and young doctors were forced to be cleared and self-regulated. At that time a Neurosurgeon was also accused by a patient of receiving money, with concrete evidences. This doctor also said that after Hou Wen Yong released the book, many hospital insiders were irked and accused him of "why did you write about me?" This doctor lamented that some of them are still in high position up to now, and the actual consequences are really great. This original novel is just like the Japanese serial that are rather disappointing to the viewers. Behind the halo of compassion, many doctors are also tempted to sink into power struggle to snatch the swirl of fame and fortune.

One Love ¨C http://hk.myblog.yahoo.com/v_swatonelove/ "Clip is only available before September 24, 2006.Kangta & Vanness praises one another Upstage, Downstage, fans quarrelKangta and Vanness, such a combination into a group KV, everyone was shocked when news came out. The only similar point was that, they were once members of a number one pop group. One from F4 while the other from H.O.T. Yesterday, both of them were at Nanjing to promote their new album, Scandal. When Vanness was in F4, his popularity couldn't be compared to Zaizai nor Jerry. Now, it is a little subsitution smell when he is with Kangta. The most headache thing was, as they are praising one another upstage, fans downstage have quarrelled from the airport to the set. Many kangta fans still cannot accept the fact of the KV group.Yesterday night, Cheng Bao and Fei Chang Da Ming Xing held a challenge for the both of them.From F4 to KV, Vanness said, "I just came into the circle then and the 4 of us just rush in like that, the feeling would definately be different. However, towards a period of time, each of us had a different view of our own development, we F4 still meet up, i still met Zaizai last month. And they are very supportive of me being with Kangta, this is the thing i'm the most glad about." The biggest challenge of such a group was communication but Vanness said, "We use english and we even get a translator." Kangta said, "We communicate for every song done and Vanness often fly to Korea. Whenever the fans gives me presents, they won't forget to get another one for Vanness." Upstage, both of them really praised one another to the core. Vanness said Kangta was a , "very perfect professional artist." while Kangta said Vanness was a , "Born talent." Because of the language barrier, many reporters threw the questions about the group to Vanness while Kangta would listen. When he accidently understood the chinese word, "dance", he immediately repeated with accurate pronounciation, "Dance?" Reporters laughed and Kangta continued to point at Vanness and said," He dances well!"As both Vanness and Kangta were praising one another at the press conference, someone revealed that, yesterday, they coincidently met Kangta and Vanness fans at the airport. More than a hundred fans but obviously splited into 2 groups. One was holding a banner of Support Kangta while the other group, although lesser than the Kangta group, had their banners uphigh too.According to what is known, the reason for their dispute was simple, both group of fans wanted the space that was nearer to the exit and refused to give in to one another and quarrelled for a long time. Kangta had about more than a hundred fans while Vanness had about 50 fans. Both groups didn't seem to accept the fact that they were a group and only came to support their own idol. The crew actually arranged for the both of them to come out from the normal exit. However, after seeing such a case, they arranged for help from the security at the airport for both of them to leave the airport by police cars. From the discussions, both of them also heard of what had happened but they were still on good terms on the way and did not hear them discussing about it.According to a Kangta fan, she did not accept that fact right from the start because she finds that Vanness's singing skills could not be compared to Kangta. However, after knowing that such a KV group was a intention of Kangta himself, she decided to show support but they were still a small group of people who had something against Vanness and often quarrelled about it.In the new album, Scandal, Kangta is in charge of the composing while Vanness raps and writes the lyrics of the rap as well as the english version of Scandal. Both of them planted the ten songs in 3 versions, chinese, english and korean. In the hit song, Scandal's Mtv, both of them fell for the same girl. And, in order to get the girl's heart, both went into a dance challenge. In the competition, they became friends. It is known that the silver car in the Mtv belongs to Kangta and have not just appeared once in this MTV. Another song re-sung which is by Fish Leung by Kangta is simply another sad song of telling someone of his love.Jerry's charms are remarkable. In his original two events on September 9 for his Tokyo Fans Gathering, about ten thousand entrance tickets were all sold out in just one day when its ticket sales opened. All 5,012 seats (max. tix for 1 event) were immediately sold out, with each ticket costing Y7,350 (about NT$2,089). If summed up, the two events will earn close to $20,590,000. The other day, because many more fans are still clamoring, the sponsors decided to add a September 8 repeat Gathering. He was really sought-after that he even surpassed Sakamoto (Tu Fan Ben Long Yi), Park Yong Ha (Po Long He ) and other stars from Japan and Korea. After "Meteor Garden", he already got his base and now with the airing of "The Hospital", the Jerry Yan effect has warmly extended. He will be at the Tokyo International Conference Center Hall on September 8-9 to hold a full-packed Fan's Gathering Jerry's manager Jing Yi Peng said that Jerry will have another travel schedule after his Japan trip, so he picked up the additional September 8 event. Today they will talk to the Japanese sponsors so they can finalize the preparations. But according to reports, Jerry might sing a number of songs for this event, and fans requested The Hospital theme song. However, compared to the all-out support of many famous brand companies for Jerry in "The Hospital, female lead Janine Zhang remained low-profiled. When she joined the promo activity yesterday, her white silk cape for her strapless dress went off, and was questioned by net discussions if she has only two sets of clothes for the promo events. There were also talks that she has good acting in the drama but apparently the way she talks is bad. Vic Zhou Japan trip, Curry Curry Fills the HouseZaizai Vic Zhou went to Japan for his DVD pictorial and his pictorial, fans and working assistants all gave him curry as a gift, making him scream, "Curry Curry fills the house!"The Japanese F4 fanclub have been set up for 2 years already. The topics that Japanese fans have been talking about online was wanting to know about their idols' past real life. With them awaiting, Zaizai would be releasing his DVD pictorial and pictorial this coming October. Yesterday, he even held a press conference in Japan.At the press conference, Zaizai was a little nervous as he had not met up with the Japanese media for quite some time. When he realized that several reporters were looking very serious and attentive expression looking at him, he again arouse that talent of his of telling cold jokes. Especially when the host asked him about his 2 biggest achievments of coming to Japan, Zaizai said mischeviously, "The biggest thing is that i think the curry that everyone have given me can last me till next year, i hope fans will stop giving me curry ...."causing the whole place to be laughing.For the details in the DVD pictorial and pictorial, Zaizai did not miss a single meeting ever since the discussion started, hoping to present the most sincere work. However, Zaizai said, during the time he went back to Yilan to film, his working crew hid from him as they have arranged for his secondary school year 3 teacher to meet up with him. He was very shocked when he saw his teacher and thought of the embarrassed moments when he was afraid of his teacher when he was young. Zaizai laughed and said, if he could turn back time, what he would like to do now is to pinch his teacher's face, "That would decrease the distance the teacher and students has, it'll be so much more direct..."What will you do when Jerry wears a robe and looks at you like this? http://www4.freep.cn/photo_new/2006-8-23/10/200682339278877.jpgAccording to Mamy, the whole family of the owner of a snack restaurant that she knows is watching TH everyday, including the daughter in high school. According to the daughter, her classmates are all watching TH now. The same as Mamy's sister who is a fan of Korean dramas. Her sister and her daughter who studies in high school also watch TH every night as well as the replay the next day. According to her niece, her classmates in high school are also watching and discussing TH. On Ptt's (a public bbs in TW) TW Drama Board, it is common to have more than 700 to 800 people online at the same time these days for discussing TH. It appears that TH is pretty hot, but how come it does not reflect on the ratings by AGB Neilsen Media? According to the information provided by Sfen (a fan in TW), the ratings surveyed by AGB Neilsen Media in TW are based on the "people meters" set up in the chosen 1,800 families' homes. TW has 23,000,000 people and the families chosen are not randomly selected for each survey. In the process of selecting the families, AGB Neilsen Media offers appliances' maintenance service and coupons as rewards. It appears that a lot of the families chosen are the ones with low/medium income and they tend to prefer tv programs with strong sensory stimulation. That's why the ratings of certain types of dramas are always high. It is like a cycle. When the invalid ratings are submitted to the production companies/broadcast companies, the producers believe that only the programs with violent, outrageous, xexed, and/or graphic scenes/storyline can get high ratings. Eventually, audience that don't prefer these kinds of dramas stop watching tv at all.Men's Style August 2006 translation part 1 and 2Lost Zhou Yu MinA little surprised, he, appearing for the first time in our magazine, is not as quiet as we imaged. He speaks of what he has experienced since his F4 era until now in an unexpectedly unpretentious manner. What he has puzzled over and what he has gained during the six years have become the powers motivating him to keep moving forward.I'm not the clean-cut boy what people image. There are times I too often feel lost.Zhou Yu Min appears for the first time in our magazine. This is the 6th year since he debuted as F4. He is 25 years old now, no longer the Hua Ze Lei brimming with youth. His handsome and beautiful facial features remain unchanged, but the determined facial expressions and attitude that come with time has made him more charismatic than ever."I used to be a serious case of overly active imagination. Before I was 18, I dreamed of what I would do when I reached 18 years old. When I was 18 years old, I started wishing I could get married and having children when I am 25 years old. For me, love indeed comes first." Zhou Yu Min says frankly and shows the candid side of him.In Silence which is currently on air, he plays a character persistent in love and rebelling against his family. He considers, "This is like me in real life." "But in the drama, the character's background is an heir to a business which is completely different than mine. I'm a country boy from Yilan. Before I debuted, I had spent almost all my time in Yilan and come to visit my mother only during the summer and winter breaks."Zhou Yu Min debuted as F4 and has become tremendously popular across Asia. He gives himself 90 points for his performance over the six years. But there are times he still feels his temperament is not suitable for the showbiz."During the first few years, I couldn't help having the feeling of not winning it on our own merits. The way we came into the limelight was more or less lucky. Many things and concerts were done with a mood of not getting ready yet. It was not until this year when I filmed "Silence" that I came to realize that 'I really like acting.' In fact, I always somewhat lack of confidence. It's just that I've found interests in it now. Friends also say of me that I may have the temperament for the showbiz because I'm not ambitious for fame and fortune and I'm easy to get along with. Ah.... I think I will just take things as they come! Anyway, I only want to do everything well."Because of such personality and this kind of attitude, the staffers he works with are partners he feels safe with and with them he has collaborated for over 5 years."I've not done anything crazy, but I'm not the clean-cut boy people image. Sometime I'm not feeling high or when I'm mum and not talking, the surrounding will suddenly become quiet, and then I will start talking to myself in my mind. I often feel lost. For example when I just joined the showbiz, out of the blue suddenly everyone knows me. Also a while back, I was contemplating what my contributions are over the past five year. But up to now, I still haven't found the answer to it yet."goodness me..this is totally coool!! i wanna buy the 5 yrs of collection!! far too coolL!!! loosing control!!!!!!! oh boy...n i find vanness hotter than the last time from meteor garden coz i just started watching the newly updated peach girl vanness filmed in 1998 on youtube..sooooo cool!! pheww!!
