Jerry went to Australia to shoot photos for this photo album, he joked that the media should introduce girlfriends to him: "If I have a girlfriend, maybe I would bring her to Australia, open a farm there, and take care of little animals together. Although I'm not someone who knows how to make girls happy, but I would try to tell jokes everyday to make her laugh."

As for new films, he expressed he's approached by several screen plays, his next film might be filmed in Mainland. He said: "Don't think I'm expensive, welcome everyone to approach to me. If there is a good film that can let me perform well, I'm willing to perform even unconditionally."

Ariel Lin has been waiting to film idol drama "華麗的挑戰" ("Extravagant Challenge") for more than a year. Male lead has changed from Jerry Yan to Wu Zun. But it's changed back to Jerry after Wu Zun started to film movies. It's said Joe Cheng wasn't satisfied with the amount of screen-time he has and left the cast. Female lead Ariel has been waiting for her Mr. Right for a long time. Now it's rumored that Super Junior's Donghae and Siwon would pair up with Ariel. The two collaborated with Ariel for her MV before. Plus Ariel graduated with a Korean degree so there is no problem in communications.

Before working with SJ members, Ariel would first film Taiwanese version of "The First Shop of Coffee Prince." She would chop off her hair and play a handsome boy. The ironic thing is that the male lead would be Jerry, so in the end Ariel is still going to pair up with Jerry, just in a different drama.

Jerry Yan's Photo Album...He Couldn't Let Go of Chiling Lin?

Jerry Yan talked about his relationships the first time ever in his photo album "9314 Man and Boy." In this book, it seems one of the relationships he mentioned is hinting to well-known model Chiling Lin: "When I heard she told everyone I'm the one who treat her the best in the world, I just know I have to become a man in order to fight sadness. Reason to let her go is because I really love her. I know she would meet a better man."

Jerry disclosed lots of personal things within every word. He said every relationship lasted longer than 6 years. The reason he is single now is because "afraid if I were to fall again, I won't be able to crawl back up."

He said the way he loves his girlfriend before was too childish. He only used the way he thought was the best, never thought whether she actually liked it or not. He praised "her" perfection, but whether this is Chiling, Jerry's manager neither denied nor agree, only said: "Jerry is just sharing his feeling for the past, examining himself, and wishing those who were once nice to him the best."
