Sunshine Angel to Air on GTV in May of 2011

Yesterday I posted about upcoming TW-dramas that are either in production or just wrapped. Someone asked about Sunshine Angel, and I purposely didn’t include SA in my post since the drama finished filming last year and has been on the shelf for months.

Luckily, GTV recently announced that SA was picked it up for its late Spring broadcast, so expect to see Wu Zun paired with Rainie Yang to grace the screens in May of 2011.

In Sunshine Angel, Wu Zun plays a second generation chaebol who loses his family fortune. He meets with an optimistic and sunny-tempered maid played by Rainie, and entanglements of the heart occur. This sounds like a reverse of Corner with Love with Barbie Hsu and Show Luo. Not sure whether Rainie and Wu Zun will have sparks, but hey, stranger TW-pairings have occurred that have blown my mind.

 

Wu Zun wrote a cute message to his fans on his blog about SA. Originally the drama title was 陽光小妹 or Sunshine Little Sister, which sounds so similar to the title of Wu Zun’s Princess drama from a few years back. Therefore, Wu Zun suggested the name be changed to  陽光天使 or Sunshine Angel.

As most of you know, the name of this drama was supposed to be 阳光小妹 but it was later changed to 阳光天使! Guess who’s the one who suggested for a new title? Yeah, it’s me… haha! Honestly, I don’t really like the idea of having the words ‘小妹’ thus after consulting with Ah Ken and without thinking too much, I thought of the words ‘天使’ and said, “阳光天使都好过阳光小妹啦!“ And who knows he agreed as well and supported with my decision… haha! Well, it may not be the most ideal name for this drama but since I’ve always treated you guys as my ‘天使’ , this sure is meaningful to me 🙂

In case anyone didn’t know this already, but Wu Zun grew up in Brunei and speaks fluent English. In fact, his Chinese is abysmal. When he was filming Tokyo Juliet with Ariel Lin, he phonetically memorized his lines from his script. I do think some of his stiff acting can be attributed to the fact that he’s memorizing lines based on sound rather than comprehension.

  • YESSSS!!! I've been waiting for this drama for a while. Glad to know it will air soon, although the wait is a bit long. may..come soon!!

  • these two actors i do like--the very first drama that i watched with rainie in it was Devil Beside You with Mike He. my first impression of her was "bleh" but as the drama progressed, i thought she was pretty good---and she's actually one of my favorite T-Drama actors ( one of the very few--i'm sorry to say) I'm quite sure she'll do the same with this drama with Wu Zun (super hot) thanks for the trivia on WZ quite interesting.

  • Haha love the picture of her wrapped in a towel (?) and holding a spatula...that should turn out to be interesting.

  • I always thought his voice was dubbed over for Tokyo Juliet. In the NGs for Hana Kimi they're always taking the piss at his accent.

  • on my maybe shelf? Not really a fan of these two but like koala stranger pairings have surprised me too. I've only seen rainie in the tw version of BOF and devil besides you (loved her with Mickey He) so ...??

    • Yup, HUGE rumors in TW-ent that Wu Zun is seriously considering quitting show biz.

      Supposedly he declined Absolute Boyfriend and another movie he had already accepted. He's been back in Brunei since the end of 2010, and wants to spend more time with his father there.

      Until he makes an official announcement, it remains just rumors and possibility.

      • He's rich and sure doesn't need the chaos of show biz but it's the fans' loss because he is a very nice lovable person and easy on the eyes.

  • Oh this is interesting.so wait for this.I love rainie,wu zun just mah-okay.but as long as rainy put the effort she can make great chemistry&shine.
