The both of them have kiss for the whole 3 years because of this series and how could they not [love] each other!

Xiao Zhong’s version
Zheng Yuan Chang (Xiao Zhong) who has just stepped into the entertainment industry has quickly risen to fame and become one of the popular idols. Last time, he took on one of the role in [The Rose] and his popularity has sky rocketed because of the series and since then his career has been going on smoothly until the year 2005 where he collaborated with Lin Yi Chen in [ISWAK] and it has boost up Xiao Zhong’s popularity to another higher level and the both of them are being recognized by the public as the best onscreen couple.

[ISWAK] started filming at 2004 August and if including the airing, promoting, the filming of [TKA] in 2007 March and until the airing of [TKA], it has already been more than 3 years already. About this one whole [Itazura na Kiss] series, Xiao Zhong was acting very excited about it, he even joked that: [This past 3 years, Lin Yi Chen is the girl that I’ve kiss the most!]

Yi Chen is so quiet
Actually it’s not a joke at all, Xiao Zhong did collaborate on and off with Yi Chen in this past 3 years together. So no matter whether they are from filming to promoting, they were able to meet together and after a while, Xiao Zhong has already accepted Yi Chen as his onscreen couple. Xiao Zhong said: [In real life, the personalities of Yi Chen and me are actually the reverse opposite of Jiang Zhi Shu and Yuan Xiang Qin; she is a bit quiet while I love to talk. If I get to choose, I think I would still choose Yi Chen’s type of girl to be my girlfriend.]

[TKA] The most unforgettable scenes!
Xiao Zhong: [That would be the first episode where the bed scene between me and Xiang Qin! Because it was using one camera to film from the start to the end and no NG was allowed. Before the filming starts, has already been discussing with the director for quite a while and when the actual filming starts, (we) have especially clear the set, the director would be at the side and said: [Now kiss that place, now kiss a bit to the left, a bit to the right.] and this kind of directions so totally didn’t have those passionate feelings at all.]

Yi Cheng: [The story plot arranges Xiang Qin to take the nursing course to become a nurse and later have to withdraw blood from Zhi Shu. Even though I did practice on it before hand but still I’m not a professional and I would feel like fainting whenever I see blood, when Xiao Zhong was looking at me while I was tremblingly drawing blood, he must be terrified about it!]

Yi Chen’s version
And about Yi Chen, because she had a very adorable, active image plus healthy and young so she has been starred in many idol series already; and she’s already taking the leading role since from the start too. Yi Chen has been collaborating with quite a lot of male idols too, like [Love contract] with Mike He, [Tokyo Juliet] with Wu Chun and so on. She has already become the most on demand actress in the idol series.

But when it come too Yi Chen’s choice about which male lead matched her the most, she also said she is most compatible with Xiao Zhong! Yi Chen said: [When I meet up with Xiao Zhong, our main topic will be sliming, dieting; and we are very close; Xiao Mei and I were too quiet, Wu Chun is too perfect, not like a boyfriend. If I have to choose a boyfriend, I will also choose Xiao Zhong.]

One Take to finish with the kissing
Xiao Zhong and Yi Chen, not only admire each other, even while they are working together, their tacit understanding for each other are something that nobody could compare with. Yi Chen said: [Since (we) have collaborating together until now, the tacit understanding between me and Xiao Zhong is already beyond words. And this time it has added even more trust and tacit understanding to it so there’s a lot of scene which (we) only need one take to get the scene done.] Taiwan is now airing [TKA] already, while Hong Kong will also be airing it at the first half of the year of 2008. Seems like even if Xiao Zhong and Yi Chen are not filming [ISWAK3], (they) still need to [Kiss] for one more year because of the promotions for [TKA]!

Ariel Lin uses a straight face to block away flies, returns to her school to recap on the past

During her schooling period, sweet Ariel always uses her straight face to block off the seniors & juniors who admire her.

Ariel went back to her high school for a visit, when faced with fully filled shelves of tibits, those past memories came back to her.
Recently, she joined in the Yu Le Bai Fen Bai (or 100% Ent)'s return to old school segment, & thus she went back to Ming Lun High School. When she appeared, there are thousands of her juniors welcoming her. Its their first time seeing their idol senior, & everyone said "she looks prettier in person than on tv!"

Pretty girls often do not have many friends, during secondary 2 Ariel was scouted to film an advertisment, but her social circle was still very good. Her teacher said that Ariel once was elected as the school's model student without any promotions, while other students depend on posters, & this shows how good her personal connections were.

During high school Ariel's results were very good, especially in Literature, her teacher says "As for physical education, she's strongest in swimming. At that time she was also the vice president of broadcasting, her sweet voice won her many guy's hearts." But Ariel said "I always show them a straight face & don't care about them, so eventually these incidents became lesser."

That day, Ariel became Miss Lin (teacher), she whom graduated from a korean course, taught her juniors how to sing Full House's song . There's also a Mexico exchange student in the school who gets attracted by Ariel, following her everywhere, even to the music lesson.
