Just when I thought I could take a drama break, a press conference broke out the other day with Jasper announced as staring in web series 迷徒Chloe with Nana Lee, Chris Wu, Enson Chang, William Hsieh, Crystal Mu and Emily. The series is like a second series, or an unrelated follow-up to another series called 迷徒Claire featuring Tia Lee and Xiu Jie Kai. I must admit I'm so relieved that they didn't pair up Jasper with Tia. That is perhaps my worst nightmare pairing. To be fair, I probably will be on a drama break as the official Facebook page for the series says it's to air in November.
Anyway, the story will follow a 30 year old woman, Chloe, who is strongly devoted to her job in the media, but is unable to move forward in her own love life. After working hard for 5 years, she is achieving her dream of creating her own program - a program purely dedicated to giving musical artists the space to perform and do live broadcasts. But just when things seem to be progressing smoothly, she is suddenly forced to encounter the person she wants to encounter the least - her ex-boyfriend from 5 years ago Wang Shi Qi. He has brought his only daughter home to settle back in Taiwan. Despite hoping to get rid of her past connections, she ends up befriending her ex. Chloe is also being pursued warmly by another guys such as, Luo Shao Yang. What will she choose for her life and her happiness?
Jasper will be starring as Luo Shao Yang (who appears to have the English name, Rex). Filming has already started with Jasper looking like his suave musician, Morning Call self! You can check out filming stills below...
To be honest, the drama's story line doesn't sound too different from the typical mid-life crisis female dramas, but I'm looking forward to a new Jasper project, with a nice looking cast...And Jasper also has to sing, which he has always been nervous about doing...Haha, you should have seen him at the Morning Call concert this year when he and Sui Ling had to perform French Film live! So nervous, but so cute! What do you guys think of this new Jasper project?
The storyline is average but if you've seen Claire, the first season has great cinematography + high qualuty production and surprisingly, Tia improved a lot in rhat series.
ReplyDeleteOooh, Hi! Long time no see! No, I haven't seen Claire, but I'm looking forward to seeing Chloe! It's nice to know that the series will look great and have a reliable production team behind it. I feel a bit reluctant to watch projects featuring Tia, which sounds a little unfair, but there's always so many things to watch (even with in terms of Jasper related dramas and videos) that I don't have time to give her a second chance. Oh well, maybe in the future. Anyway, hope you're well! :)
DeleteJust realized I made so many typos using my phone, hahaha. But anyways, you can go watch the trailer of 迷徒claire on youtube, the cinematography is like a movie. I didnt finish the drama because mainly the plot doesn't interest me that much and I am only alright about Tia and XJK :P But watching the trailer will help u understand what am I saying about the quality.
DeleteJasper was supposed to film c-period drama 王道劍 but it just keeps getting delayed and he can't even film a full drama because of that (because the scheduling may be in conflict with 王道劍 if it starts filming all of a sudden), soooo annoyed with all the delays. But I guess it's inevitable, coming from a Chinese production, they're not doing the live-shooting system, thus more prone to delays and unseen scheduling conflicts. I'm glad he's still on a tons of CFs and this web drama though (13ep, 20min per ep like first season).
