In Time With You Releases Long Preview Prior to its Sunday Premiere

Just a reminder that a new TW-drama is premiering this Sunday, the friends-turned-lovers In Time With You with Ariel Lin, Bolin Chen, Sunny Chan, and a slew of recognizable Taiwanese actors. At the helm is Director Winnie, making this his third collaboration with Ariel. FTV released a twenty-minute preview that is pretty detailed, and really connects with me purely on the directorial touches and Ariel’s amazing acting.

She looks better than ever before, and her acting continues to mature and deepen in nuance and delivery. Perhaps it’s because she was a language major in college (Korean), but she has the best line delivery and enunciation of pretty much all the TW-actresses currently acting. It’s a shame she was dubbed in LoCH2008 along with the entire cast, because I would have loved hearing her actually say Huang Rong’s witty and charming dialogue. I can’t wait to watch the first episode!

Part 1:

So the baby teen wolf and large freaky man wolf thingie Ariel chases, and later chases her, in the department store is her dream manifestation of time. Once so innocent, and something we chase because we can’t wait to grow older. But then it becomes something scary and big to us and in turn chases us. Time waits for no one.

Part II:

What I like about this drama as shown through the trailers is how there is such a lyrical elegance to it. It doesn’t look bright and cartoony, but rather feels adult and complicated. I don’t think this drama will be a ratings hit, but hope it’ll be appreciated in Taiwan for it’s attempt at dealing with realistic and convoluted themes of friendship mixed with love.

  • thanks for the update news about ariel newest drama...mrs. koala
    she look so beautiful and mature in here...love it! ^^
    can't wait to see it... i hope it can have good rating.
    come on TW's people, it's ariel... ^^

  • ooooooohhhh... this looks good!!! It is going to be one ep a week again? Cos it is going to be long and painful!! And which website can I dl or watch it with subs - viki doesn't work in the UK most of the time.

  • I think I will fall in love with this drama because of it's storylines, plus it's something that would happen in our everyday's life... btw, Ariel looks great here

  • Yeah, I don't think this will be a big ratings hit in Taiwan. I'd honestly rather it get critical acclaim than rake in the high ratings (though both would be awesome). It seriously looks beautiful, and I can't wait for it to air. I just hope it gets subbed, because I don't think there are many subbers on viki's ITWY channel (and I don't know if there are any designated uploaders). I'm loving Ariel and Bolin's acting so far (Sunny and Jassie are pretty good, too), and I'm looking forward to seeing more of the extended cast, too.

  • Yay! Thanks for the previews Koala! Honestly, I think this drama will fare well when it comes to ratings. For me, the story is a hit. I hope Taiwanese audience will feel the same. And also, this is friggin' Ariel Lin! The best Taiwanese actress of her generation! *exaggerating* lol

    I can't wait for this drama! :)

  • I think I'm in love already. I almost cried just watching the previews even though I don't understand anything.

    This drama reminds me of To Get Her because of its quiet vibe even though this seems more realistic.

    And Ariel looks radiant!
