2014 Sanlih Drama Awards 華劇大賞 Behind the Scenes Translations

So while I await for my copy of the January SPOP to arrive, I've found a video of the behind the scenes on the night of the 2014 Sanlih Drama Awards.

I've translated all the sections with either Puff or Jasper or both in the video. The clip features sections with Puff and Jasper after they've walked the red carpet as they talk about Jasper's awkward red carpet posing. If you're looking for the bit with Puff and Jasper together, the section starts at 2:53 on the video. Otherwise there's a scene before that with Puff and Aaron, and a scene with just Jasper.


1. Aaron comes to bother Puff [2:24-2:46]
Commentator: Acting as "The Boss," Aaron Yan, when behind the stage, acts towards previous (on-screen) girlfriend Puff Kuo, not too polite at all ----but this isn't necessarily rude. It can mean that they're close, so they don't need to be polite---
Puff, going on from a longer conversation before camera starting rolling on them: Tia is red colour, I am green colour
Aaron, folds his arms and looks at her: Ohhhh, there's a theme right?
Puff: Right
Puff: And then, in a moment, we'll go up like that
Aaron: This look (hair) of yours, is it (meant to be like) Zhang Yaqin (A Taiwanese news reporter)?
Aaron reaches a hand to brush Puff's hair so that it isn't parted in the Zhang Yaqin way.
[White and green caption pointing to Puff: Zhang Yaqin's bangs]
Woman sitting behind them laughs, Aaron laughs along with her.
Puff, sounding offended: Hey, people have praised my hair as looking good!
Aaron, mockingly: Who (said that)?
Puff points at the SPOP/ Sanlih presenter (I'm afraid I don't know his name, but he was the presenter at the Pleasantly Surprised fan meet! I'm sure he does all the MC's for fan meets)
Presenter: Me!
Aaron reaches out to pull his arm.
Presenter to Aaron: And your hair is very good looking too
Aaron succeeds in pulling him along, sort of shaking his hand.
Aaron, grinning at the camera: Thank you, thank you
Puff laughs in the background.

2. Puff and Jasper talk poses [2:46-3:36]
Puff: Just then, when we were taking photos, we both needed to pose, because the last pair (on the red carpet) was Aaron and Tia. They both posed in some, that is, 'close' pose. Then we both go up...and (we're) just very stiff like this.


Jasper: We know each other very well, so...
Male Interviewer: Why would it become like this? 
Female Interviewer [White caption]: Who's to blame for the problem?
Jasper laughs walking around Puff
Puff gives a big dramatic sigh and heaves her shoulders
Puff: It definately has to be the man who initiates it. Females iniating (intimate poses) is not too good. Actually, I was already touching his face 
Here Puff reaches out a hand to touch his face. 
-Cuts to Jasper and Puff standing side on to the camera-
Jasper is doing fancy hand motions, as if to show what he could do posing
Male Interviwer: Slowly slide down (your hand)
Female Interviewer: Aside from touching the face, what else is there?
Jasper is presenting his hands in fancy gestures around Puff's face and Puff is grinning
Female Interviewer: Aside from touching the face is there other moves?


Male Interviwer, laughing: Increasingly restricted?
Jasper is moving slowly behind Puff
Jasper: There's also "The massage"....
He proceeds to pretend to massage Puff's shoulders while she's laughing


Female Interviewer, laughing: You doing this is a massage? Don't be random again!
Both Puff and Jasper are laughing


-Cuts to the Female Interviewer asking Jasper a new question-
Female Interviewer: Of the whole ceremony, who is the number 1 most beautiful? -----There is an implication of the most beautiful girl----
Puff and Jasper are listening to the question seriously.
Jasper: Me
Puff bursts out laughing and clapping, while Jasper is grinning.
Male Interviewer, laughing: Why is it you?


Jasper, pointing to the camera: Because these types of questions are very frightening


Jasper leans in closer and there's an "angry" cartoon symbol on his head
Jasper, leaning close in faux menace: Don't frame me!
-Cuts to Jasper leaning on a dressing table by himself, cross-armed-
Male Interviwer: Your feeling of security/confidence just then...Can you model again one more time?
Jasper puts his hand in his pocket and reaches for his drink with his other hand. The camera is just focusing on the bottom of his jacket and his legs :P
Male Interviewer [White caption]: What are you digging on this side for?
Jasper, laughs: I'm not digging
Jasper, makes a fancy motion regarding his pants: Only this range
Male Interviewer: Only this range, that would be right. (I'm not quite sure of the joke here. It's kind of lost on me.)
Jasper playfully hits the interviewer.
Male Interviewer: Hey, he's hitting me!
Jasper and interviewers are laughing.

3. Jasper, by himself, watching Lego Li sing [4:01-4:14]
Jasper, to camera: Very impressive. Because this is the first time I've heard him singing a song. So I was just on that side, off in a daze.
-Cuts to Jasper laughing to camera-
Jasper: I just came out to listen with a small fan's feelings (like a small fan)
Jasper then opens the side door of the stage to go fangirl over Lego's performance

End of translation. Did you enjoy the 2014 Sanlih Drama Awards? :)
