'Love You' Cast Celebrates Good Ratings With Popcorn

Rainie Yang and Joseph Chang's new drama "Love You" (醉後決定愛上你) is once again number 1 on the Sunday's idol drama rating chart, receiving an average rating of 2.62. The cast including both leads and Tiffany Hsu held a celebration event for yesterday's good rating. Usually people celebrate good ratings with good foods, but only popcorn for this drama?

In fact, popcorn is a quite important element in Episode 2 of this new drama. In that episode, Rainie is upset over her boyfriend and needs to calm down by eating popcorn. However, during official filming, the crew actually stuffed toilet paper inside the popcorn bag underneath real popcorn to save money. They decided to eat lots of real popcorn at the celebration event yesterday to pay back the actors.

Playing a good looking and rich architectural designer, Joseph is now many girls' dream husband and many netizens have been confessing their love to him. Even partner in the drama Rainie expressed the same thought.

"If there is a good looking husband like him, I'm willing to marry him even without giving me one million!*"

*In the drama, Joseph promises to give Rainie one million if she agrees to be his fake wife for 3 months.

Joseph Chang

Rainie Yang and Joseph Chang are confirmed to be the leads of the spinoff of "Fated to Love You"---<醉後決定愛上你>! [rough translation: Decide to Love You After Drunken]

Recent idol dramas have not been doing well in terms of ratings compared to the past when average ratings were between 2s and 4s. In 2008, a low-profile idol drama called "Fated to Love You" made a history in Taiwanese idol dramas, getting ratings as high as 14 points once. A sequel/spin off of this drama was discussed last year in hopes to bring back good ratings and the crew wanted original leads from the drama, Ethan Ruan and Joe Chen, to star as a couple again.

However, perhaps due to schedule conflict, new leads were cast and it is officially going to be Rainie and Joseph. It is Rainie's first drama after she crowned Golden Bell's Best Actress last year. As for Joseph, he appears less in idol drama in recent years and focuses in the film industry. The crew hopes it would be a fresh pair to the audience.

Recently got a new hair duo, Rainie attended to a press conference of the drama yesterday and draw with a Taiwanese artist. Since the original drama has some hot bed scenes, the same thing is expected in this spin off. The actress hinted the level of bed scenes in this drama: "Triangle means movements on our scripts, and there is a page that is full of triangles! The only word on the page is 'explore'!"

Outsiders have thought this new drama would be the sequel of "Fated," but in fact it has a brand new plot. They even cooperate with artists from Taiwan's cultural and creative industry, making this idol drama more cultural and unique.
