Jerry Yan chased a Korean star and felt happy to see Jin Hui Zi
Hadn't thought that Taiwanese idol and Heavenly King Jerry Yan (left) is also a super idol! Yesterday afternoon, he and "Goong Princess Hours" "Her Majesty Queen" Jin Hui Zi (right) happily met each other and both exchanged tips on charity work. Jerry rarely looks as if he is the fan but he also didn't forget to ask for Jin Hua Zi's autograph signed on the book. The travel-worn Jerry Yan flew off to Seoul, Korea the other day. Now, in order to hold a World Vision activity, he was at the ARKO Art theater yesterday afternoon and met with World Vision Korea Goodwill Ambassadress, veteran Korean actress Jin Hui Zi. Jin Hui Zi boasted and praised Jerry who looked more handsome and stronger than he appears in TV. Jerry then said that Jin Hui Zi is very kind, and in a super good mood. For the Korean media, Jerry expressed that he had already read some of Jin Hui Zi's written books where he felt very touched after reading it. Regarding her past 10 years of dedicated charity service he salutes and respects her. He knew that Jin Hui Zi joined the stage play "Doubt" before, and so he took the initiative to ask that he must go to the University Street Theater to meet his idol Jin Hui Zi.

Jerry Yan’s visit canceled
To address the urgent need for disaster relief operation due to the onslaught of super-typhoon Reming, World Vision-Philippines is canceling the scheduled visit of Jerry Yan to Filipino sponsored children.
“While Jerry’s visit will highlight World Vision-Philippines campaign to find new sponsors for 1,000 poor Filipino children, it is our priority to respond to the appeals for relief assistance of our community and local government partners devastated by super-typhoon Reming,” said World Vision-Philippines executive director Elnora Avarientos. She added that World Vision’s Humanitarian Emergency Assistance team, which is tasked to secure the safety of Jerry’s visit in the Philippines, will instead go to the Bicol region to conduct damage and need assessment in preparation for disaster relief operation.
Taiwanese superstar Jerry Yan, popularly known as Dao Ming Si of the phenomenal hit TV series Meteor Garden and F4 fame, was scheduled to visit the Philippines on Dec. 8 to 11 as part of his Child Sponsorship campaign across Asia.
Jerry has been appointed as the first Asia Regional Child Sponsorship ambassador of World Vision and has visited World Vision-supported projects and communities in Mongolia last Oct. 24 to 30. From Mongolia, the Asian pop star proceeded to Japan, Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong as Child Sponsorship ambassador last November. Jerry is scheduled to visit Korea, the Philippines and Thailand this month.
In line with his Asian tour, Jerry is calling for 35,000 new sponsors for children in need throughout Asia.
Jerry joins more than three million other World Vision child sponsors in supporting poor children the world over. He currently sponsors three children in Mongolia.
In the Philippines, World Vision assists more than 120,000 children in 34 provinces and 22 cities across the country. Nearly 10,000 Filipinos are engaged in giving life-changing investment to 11,797 children through child sponsorship. For only P15 a day or P450 a month, a child’s life is transformed and his/her future is secured.

Dao Ming Si, you're so cold).

Drama News
TW Apple Daily
summary: There was a rumor that in the NT$80 millions fund for the TW Tourist Bureau project, NT$30 millions would be reserved for F4's talent fee. Due to his high popularity in Korea and Japan, other than being the main lead of the drama, Jerry would also sing the theme song, so his talent fee would be NT$15 millions, when F3 would share the rest NT$15 millions. According to the contract with the TW Tourist Bureau, the drama should start filming by next month, but the TW Tourist Bureau indicates that the script has not been received. When asked about the rumor, AC indicates that she doesn't know. On the other hand, Jerry's agency stays low key and answered, "He is going to have other plans next year.

The real score on F4
By Charisse V. Villamar
YOU contributor
I DON'T think anyone consciously decides to become a fan. You do not wake up one day and decide to plaster the wall with the smiling face of a pop star. Even teenagers have to go through a process that I would call the "path of fanhood" before they start pasting posters or stickers somewhere. Becoming a fan takes a certain degree of commitment to invest time and effort on someone who is usually inaccessible.Fanhood may be the lonely and somewhat alien cousin of love. When people fall in love, they become selfless creatures who suddenly find themselves offering their last slice of pizza or the last seat on a bus to their partners even if they are hungry or tired. Fans exhibit the same symptoms: they would skip a meal to save money to see their idol in a concert or buy a pop star's CD. Being a fan, like love, requires a lot of sacrifice. But because fans may not have seen their object of affection in person, much less know his personality beyond what is shown on television, in the movies or on a paper, fanhood is a lopsided, somewhat skewed version of love.When I was 16, I fell down in adoration of Brad Pitt. I truly believed we were meant to be together. I bought every magazine that had him on the cover or carried even just a brief article on my beloved future honey. I mentally calculated the age difference and created a scenario where we would finally meet in a coffee shop in Los Angeles after I reached the age of consent.I absolutely did not want to have anything to do with guys my age. They were too awkward, too gawky and too young.It was Brad Pitt for me. I even sent him a recording of my voice with a love song to introduce a connection between him and his future girlfriend.That celebrity crush was as real to me as it was to my friends who were in love with their boyfriends. It took a few years and an actress named Jennifer Aniston to shake me off my infatuation completely. It was that bad and it was that real to me.After finally dusting off the last remnants of Brad from my system, I looked back at the young me with an amused and somewhat embarrassed eye. I had probably missed out on a lot of the normal teenage "kilig" moments because of my intense fixation on a Hollywood star who could seduce a movie audience just by walking into a scene.College, family and then work eventually ground me into a sensible woman whose goals were more realistic, like starting a career and finding a partner in life's journey. I studied diligently in college, became deeply involved in sports, had my share of infatuation and flirtation with "reachable men" and graduated with good grades.After college, I immediately landed a job with a promising career path. I was a woman with a plan and the "Brad years" became a distant memory.One day in the office, I heard a colleague humming a familiar melody. The song was in Mandarin so I couldn't understand it. And I could not comprehend why it was being shown often on the MTV and MYX channels. Above all, I could not understand how a smart, professional, twentysomething consultant could put a group of long-haired guys who looked alike on her computer monitor.I knew them collectively as "Meteor Garden." But my friend corrected me immediately: "Meteor Garden is the show and F4 are the actors.""Long hair, Kaye?" I then told her in exasperation. "We don't find men with long hair sexy. We're in the Philippines, and Vin Diesel and sometimes even John Hall does it for girls."After a couple of days of my teasing and mocking, my officemate handed me three CDs, each containing one episode of "Meteor Garden." "Here, borrow them, watch them and tell me what you think," she said.I decided to humor her and I was also slightly curious about all the hoopla, I took the CDs home and invited my sister to watch them with me. Each episode ran for an hour.After watching the first one, I had to admit that the men of F4 had very distinctive, individual looks. Okay, they may have longer hair than the average Filipino male, but their features were different from each other.Another thing I realized was that their dialogue was quite funny and engaging. There was hardly a moment that reminded me that I was watching actors acting and not characters in a real situation. There were no hair pulling, cat fights, crocodile tears and high octave screeching. It was just a light drama/comedy with no pretensions to giving any complex messages.When I finished watching the third disc, I felt very light. I had a tiring day at work but as I was preparing to go to bed, I did not feel wired up at all. The last TV series that had that effect on me was "Star Trek Voyager" which belonged to a totally different genre. I decided that liking any series that would make a frazzled working girl feel relaxed by the end of the day was worth being labeled as cheesy or "baduy."I returned the discs to my officemate, slightly embarrassed and a little repentant. I endured her smug, know-it-all look when I told her I was buying my own "Meteor Garden" set.And so it began. Just as Alice tumbled down the rabbit hole, I found myself falling in slow motion back to the path of fanhood.To relax after a particularly demanding day at work, I listen to F4 music, without understanding a word of what they are singing. Before I turn in for the night, I watch their concert with my sister and close my eyes while imagining Jerry Yan's dimples and smile. I still work as efficiently, play as hard and laugh as loud, but now there is something new inside me, like a code that only I understand. I have discovered F4 and I am happier because of it.I have reassessed my theory about fanhood. Being a fan is not a first-stage delusion or a projection of a person's unfulfilled dreams to another. Like the men of F4, a fan has a distinct personality. Fanhood does not automatically mean that a person does not find pleasure in his own life and must therefore live the life he wants through his idol. Being a fan may mean paying P2,000 to watch F4's concert, drenched and wet like a rag doll, or singing their music while driving home and learning to appreciate the melody instead of the lyrics.A fan can be a wife and mother who is torn between going out for dinner with her husband on their wedding anniversary and watching the last episode of a Jerry Yan mini-series where he finally breaks off with the cursed leading lady. A fan can also be a person who is just at peace with the fact that the trappings, the labels and even the mockery do not matter.It is not the best singer, the best dancer or the best-looking idol who matters, but the hearts that are made glad even for a moment by men who have a dream and work hard to fulfill it. I would rather be inspired by hardworking and, yes, very good-looking young men than aging and redundant politicians who would serve their constituents better if they spent as much time at work as they do on childish squabbles and public posturing.
