SETTV new drama “Bai Quan Nv Wang” has confirmed leads Ethan Ruan and Cheryl Yang. However it took a long time to look for the second female lead, even Ethan’s ex-girlfriend Esther Liu passed up the role. In the end, because there is a character called “Chen Guan Qi” in the drama, the drama crew rested on Gillian Chung from TWINS to play the second female lead. Coincidentally, Angie Chai’s new drama will begin filming in December, and Charlene Choi and Mike He have been chosen as the leads.

It seems that TWINS have both chosen to develop in Taiwan. Charlene does not need to worry about this, however ever since the nude photo scandal, Gillian has been unemployed till now. Even her scenes in “Mei Lan Fang” were completely cut out. Now that SETTV have come to her door, Gillian has expressed great sincerity, and whether it is schedule or pay, she only wishes to adapt a low profile.

However, Gillian’s pay will still be more than Ethan and Cheryl. Previously, TWINS once requested a $4,000,000 pay for one month. Now, there has already been a discount. SETTV director Chen Yu Shan expressed, “We can only say that this is a female star’s pay, but she really is very sincere.”

In the drama, Gillian will play a girl who was born in America and is a very innocent beautiful young girl. However, because she got raped by a bad guy called “Chen Guan Qi”, she leaves and hides in Taiwan. While in Taiwan, she uglifies herself, wearing big black-framed glasses and braces, but one day in the magazine office, she meets Ethan Ruan.

This drama has been tailored to fit Ethan, and wants to strongly promote his assets, which is to reveal his Taiwan stallion good body. In the drama, he will go surfing, have bed scenes, and he even needs to take off his upper clothing to be a window-washer. He will no longer be “Ji She Zhang” but rather he will be from the working-class, and on Christmas night, he meets Cheryl Yang, and out of sympathy, he sleeps with her.

Extra info from chinatimes:

- Gillian will be paid $100,000TWD per episode, higher than Ethan's $80,000 and Cheryl's $70,000
- To prevent from being linked to Edison Chen’s name – Chen Guan Xi, the character in the drama – ‘Chen Guan Qi’ will be changed to ‘Mai Si Ding’
- SETTV Director Chen Yu Shan expressed, “Gillian's acting is not bad, and is suitable to play an innocent beautiful young girl. This role is quite hard to play, so we’re afraid that if we get a newbie to play it, the result will not be as good.”
- Coincidentally, the character that Ethan plays is named Lucas, which is also Cecilia Chung's son's english name. Gillian's manager Huo Wen Xi yesterday replied, “If there is anything new, we will let everyone know. Thanks for everyone’s concerns.”

Ethan Ruan - Has decided to marry in Hawaii
Source: UDN
Translation by minivicki @ asianfanatics.net/



Voted as the "King of Idol Dramas" for 2008's Ethan Ruan has recently been promoted to the status of "Author" too. Due to his love for surfing, he recently came out with a travel book "Aloha! Ethan Ruan in Hawaii". He just turned 26 years old last week but has already decided that he wants to marry at a popular hotel for honeymoon called Kahala Hotel in Hawaii. No matter how manly he appears, Ethan Ruan is actually very romantic at heart.

When Ethan Ruan went Hawaii for photoshoot, there were rows of naked babes suntanning and although Ethan Ruan who was in the midst of suntanning too didn't dare to peek, just by imagining, he already started laughing and felt very blissful. He laughed and said "Although Kenting is my surfing kickoff point and it's very beautiful, but Hawaii... You know.. That's the place that will only show up in dreams. I actually had the chance to go. Just recalling it makes the whole air ticket price worth it."

In the past, because his career wasn't smooth, Ethan admitted that he didn't have money and when he wants to travel overseas for a holiday, he can only go to nearly Asian countries like Bali or other islands. Although this time round, he was treated there and didn't need to spend his own money, he still got shocked by Hawaii's beauty and the price. He revealed that when he goes overseas, he often run around playing and won't spend a lot of time in the hotel. Thus, in the past, he will always choose the simple and plain hotels to stay in to save cost. Hawaii's hotels really opened up his eyes and changed his mindset of how there's no need to stay in good hotels when traveling.

Although it's still early for marriage, Ethan says that "When I marry, I definitely want to hold it in Hawaii. I've already chosen the location, it's going to be a place called Kahala Hotel & Resort. That's a high class area and there's good privacy. Even Obama just went there. There's a private beach and open-sky restaurant. It's like a "Invincible sea scenery room". A wedding in the open blue sea and sky will be very amazing!" But when talking about the money, Ethan who does not go for high spending expressed "It's US 1000 dollar a night which is really quite expensive. If I want to hold a wedding banquet there, I either have to wait for myself to suddenly be rich or I'll have to trouble my friends to pay for themselves."
