Annie Chen is making a niche for herself as the queen of the daily dramas, with her Inborn Pair quite the surprise hit last year and next month she’s coming back to SETTV via the daily drama Love, Now co-starring George Hu. I thought she had great chemistry with her IP co-star Chris Wang, but I’m betting based on the stills and first teaser of LN that this new pairing might surpass the IP contract married couple. The cast of LN went to the Philippines earlier this month for a location shoot (the first ever for any daily drama) and the plot synopsis actually has shades of Scent of a Woman, but funny and not morbid. In the drama, Annie plays a mid-level workaholic marketing manager of an ad agency and her boyfriend and family despair that she’ll ever be willing to settle down. So they concoct a ruse that she’s only got 180 days left to live, and to everyone’s shock Annie suddenly jets off for a end-of-life holiday to cry her sorrows away. She meets George, the successor to a bathroom fixture company, during her vacation and for whatever reason the two of them decide to get married. Once her boyfriend, played by Bobby Dou, finds out and arrives, it’s too late and he’s left playing the third wheel. Producing LN will be the same team behind IP which is why I’m getting the same romantic vibes from watching the first teaser. This looks SO CUTE! I can’t wait to check it out.
Teaser for Love, Now
Annie’s voiceover: Being with him, I am happy. Very happy. But there is a third party between us. Time. Time intruded into our love.
Awwww..this does look really cute….I love Annie!
am looking forward for the love now with annie chen daily drama.Wow!the wedding scene was taken in boracay world class beach resort located in the Philippines,
I can’t wait for this drama! I really loved Inborn Pairs and if its by the same producers, I’m sold 😉
I love that Chinese title.
The last time I watched George Hu in a project (long ago), he was very green. I’m sure he’s improved much since, so maybe I’ll be tuning in.
Ooh! GH needs to have more protein to build up some more muscle as he looks skinny and some spare ribs are shown.
LOL! I was thinking the same thing.
George was asked to lose weight for this role. He lost around 10-15 lbs and was on a extreme diet to do so before shooting commenced. I don’t know why but he expressed that he’s never been this scrawny before.
super cute…annie is like so cute with all her co-star….
I had a huge grin on the entire time I was reading your post- they look so perfect together! Why did George have to lose weight for his role?
Maybe his character is the one who has terminal disease after all… LOL (just kidding)
You may be on to something.
I’m already excited for this!
ps: I don’t know for anyone, but if someone were to play on me the joke that I have only 180 days left to live, I would definitelly KILL them upon knowing it’s a lie.. crazy family the heroine’s got! xD promise a lot of fun!
Am glad that Annie is back in town. looking forward to this.. She’s really adorable. Not crazy about the guy but they DO look like they have fantastic chemistry.
Can’t wait. thanks for update, captain koala.

I searched for kidzone party bus on Lycos and ended up on your website. I must say I do like your site and will check back soon. But I need to find the limo I was originally looking for first. Have a lovely day! toodle-oo.
