Since Ariel Lin agree to star in GTV idol drama "Extravagant Challenge" (華麗的挑戰) three years ago, she has been supporting it even there are changes in high executives, scripts, and male leads (Jerry Yan, Wu Zun, and Super Junior's Donghae and Shiwon). Lately there are rumors of Angela Chang is fighting to star in "EC," stealing Ariel's title of GTV's top actress. GTV's internal organization even split to two parties, either supporting Ariel or Angela.
Ariel's debut idol drama "True Love" and well-known drama "It Started With a Kiss" all produced by GTV, plus she won Golden Bell Best Actress with "ISWAK," making her have greater bond with GTV. But it's known after "Coffee Prince Shop Taipei Stop" decided to use Ariel as their lead, GTV internal organization appeared many disagreements like "too much Ariel Lin" etc, they even suggest why not use Angela, who once paired up with Wu Zun in "Romantic Princess," to be the lead.
Yesterday GTV's spokesman Tsai Fei Chiao expressed: "Of course we still hope it's going to be Ariel Lin, but it's still early to say all these, have to wait for people in Korea to tell us Super Junior's schedule, then use this schedule to find compatible female stars." That means "EC" now SJ's Donghae and Shiwon are the important ones; Ariel, who has been waiting for this dram, became the person who waits to be picked.
Angela's record company director Wu Yi Fen said yesterday, as her manager, it's a pity that Angela doesn't act, but these past two years the company rejected 20+ dramas because every time she filmed, all parties are upset due to tiresome and messy schedule. She denied Angela is fighting to be in "EC" and expressed her next semester would be focusing in preparing for new album; she might be able to act again at the end of the year.
The ironic thing is, Ariel sets her new album preorder date in August; the two would first come across with each other in the music industry. Ariel's manager Chou Mei Yu said: "Everyone sees how much Ariel has done for GTV, now just have to wait for them to confirm the male lead, then we would talk about whether she would star in it or not."
