Fated To Love You: White Valentine's Day Test Screening big success

The SETTV/TTV idol drama collaboration, Fated To Love You, will begin broadcasting on TTV on the 16th. TTV, therefore, specially decided to hold a test screening today, March 14... more commonly known as White (Valentine's) Day. TTV vice president Qiu Yue said, "The difference between this drama and most other dramas is that our 'climax' is right at the beginning! Additionally, on the 16th, we are actually going to show 120 minutes in one go. This is to present the 'quintessence' of our drama to our friends in the audience at once."

Because the plotline of Fated To Love You stems from "mistaken beds," TTV specially provided a "bed" at the test screening. Upon seeing it, the actors and actresses could only stare in surprise!

The four main actors for Fated To Love You, Ethan Ruan JingTian, Joe Chen QiaoEn, Baron Chen ChuHe, and Bianca Bai XinHui, took great pains to accommodate the media photos, even climbing "onto" the bed together! Because it was White Day, Ethan gave a bouquet of flowers to Bianca; Baron's present to Chen QiaoEn was a heart-shaped popped rice ball. This made both female artists feel extremely disappointed.

During the screening, when it came time for Ethan and Chen QiaoEn's bed scene, Ethan unknowingly covered his own eyes. He moaned, "It's almost like watching a porno!" This bed scene was filmed on a cruise ship, however, in order to achieve a more realistic effect, the director drew the flaps of the tent closed and filmed it again! Originally, they had all agreed that the site would be cleared for the bed scene; however, half-way through, they suddenly discovered that the tent was filled with on-lookers!

Chen QiaoEn protested that this was basically like making love twice in one night! And, more importantly, in front of a whole crowd of people!, making her feel very shameful. However, aside from the bed scene, which made people's cheeks blush and hearts speed up, the drama's "kuso" and comical scenes also induced quite a bit of laughter. Chen QiaoEn's character in the drama, a "sticky-note" girl, is, in the beginning, inconspicious and not given any respect from her peers and colleagues; however, her story-- of finding love and herself-- is, without a doubt, the dream of any modern "ordinary" girl.

Chen QiaoEn has a very ordinary name in the drama-- XinYi-- aside from her, however, actresses Song XinNi and Zhong XinLing play XinYi's older sisters, QingXia and FengJiao, respectively; their names are also quite comical.* Zhong XinLing said happily that she hadn't needed to diet or worry about her belly for this drama... because, from start to finish, she is pregnant! Song XinNi then grumbled, "Why is Chen QiaoEn the one with the one-night stand? Instead of me?"
* Translator's Note: QingXia and FengJiao are the names of two very famous actresses who consistently played romance author Qiong Yao's heroines. One of them, Lin FengJiao, is actually Jackie Chan's wife

TTV on-line held a "Sticky-Note Girl Make-over" event to coincide with the broadcast of Fated To Love You. Registering on-line will give users the chance to win a make-over transformation!

Chen Qiao En had a daring bed scene with Ethan Ruan in idol drama “Fated To Love You”. Chen Qiao En was teased by others because she forgot herself and stuck out her tongue while engrossed in a kissing scene, she laughed embarrassedly: “That’s not true! That was the effect of animation, it is not real!” And Ethan Ruan was questioned on whether he had any physical reaction during the bed scene? Chen Qiao En smiled contentedly and said: “He was hard, his entire body was hard.” Ethan Ruan immediately denied: “You know filming a bed scene is very tedious, the director wanted to film from every angle, of course the body was stiff!”

TTV Sunday new idol drama “Fated To Love You” will start airing on this Sunday (3/16) on 10pm. Yesterday it held a special press preview on White Valentine’s Day (3/14). The audience not only had red faces watching Chen Qiao En and Ethan Ruan’s bed scene, the Kuso funny images also had the audiences laughing. Bianca Bai purposely teased Ethan Ruan for his realistic performance and Ethan Ruan laughed: “You don’t understand! This is natural reaction!” For the one night stand bed scene, the two of them relied on red wine to boost their courage. Ethan Ruan became talkative after drinking and insisted on acting like the director to teach the bed scene. Chen Qiao En said: “Are you very experienced? And you still want to teach me.” This bed scene was filmed in the cruise’s cabin but to make it more realistic, the director filmed it a second time inside a room. Originally they agreed to clear the room but when they were filming halfway, they realized that there were many people crowded around to watch the show. Chen Qiao En said: “This is a one night two stands and we still had to act in front of so many people! It was embarrassing!”

During the day of the preview, Ethan Ruan gave a huge bouquet for flowers to his girlfriend in the drama, and Baron Chen gave a bouquet of specially made heart-shaped popcorns to Chen Qiao En. Chen Qiao En said happily: “This is really more suitable for sticky note girl, because we can fill our stomach with it!” The event held a truth psychology test based on the storyline and in the end Bianca Bai won the most points for queen of one night stands. Bianca Bai said embarrassedly: “I only chose what others did not choose! Actually I am very conservative!” Baron Chen said: “Don’t make excuses! This is a subconscious psychology test, so just admit it!”

TTV’s vice president Qiu Yue announced a good piece of news during the event. On the 16th of March the first episode will be 120 minutes long and the bed scene alone will take up a lot of screen time, of course the bed scene is one of the main selling points of this romantic comedy. In the drama, Chen Qiao En character of “sticky note girl”, from being initially inconspicuous and unvalued, to finding true love later on, is the dream of very ordinary girl. TTV also organizes a “Sticky Note Girl Transformation” event. Whoever signs up on TTV’s website will have a chance to transformed!
