The Taiwanese heartthrob beat fellow actors Show Luo and Ming Dao in a landslide victory

He might not have any new projects for the past one and a half years, but Taiwanese actor Jerry Yan's fans have not forgotten about him.

The results from a recent poll proved so.

A few days ago, Jerry won the 'You watched every one of his drama; which actor is your dream lover?' poll with a total of 12,137 votes. Show Luo and Ming Dao were in second and third place, with 9,871 votes and 9,765 votes respectively.

When Jerry knew of his win, he thanked his fans for their support and even took the chance to promote good friend Vanness Wu's upcoming drama.

"I'm most looking forward to Vanness's drama Material Queen this year," Jerry said.

While Jerry had not been filming, the actor was frequently involved in many charity events and projects.

Last Sunday, Jerry attended 'New Day New Hope', an event which sent love to Japan. At the event, Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami complimented Jerry for being tall and handsome.

The next morning, Jerry visited babies born with rare diseases at the National Taiwan University Hospital, together with S.H.E member Ella Chen and singer Michael Wong.

Spotted with tears in his eyes at one point during the visit, Jerry said through his management agency, "I see resilience in these children, [they] are trying hard to breathe and live. [Looking at them], I feel that I'm really blessed. I need to work harder and live my life more responsibly."

In other related news, it was rumoured that Jerry would be shooting a Chinese movie A Parisian Girl's Adventure in Lhasa. However, the actor's management agency did not comment.

On April 28th, associates of Choi Ji Woo (36) and Lee Jin Wook (30) confirmed that the two had indeed ended their 3 year relationship.

Through Star News, the associate stated, “Due to the excessive interest and spotlight put on their relationship, the two eventually decided to part ways and remain as friends earlier this year. Although they’ll be focusing on their separate activities, they still gave each other blessings for the future.”

Fans might have noticed clues of their relationship unraveling when Lee Jin Wook failed to mention her during his discharge in March. When asked who he had missed the most, he chose, “My parents, my fans, and the citizens of Seoul.”

Choi Ji Woo’s agency, C JW Company, commented, “After reading reports of their break up, we confirmed with Choi Ji Woo and found that they have indeed decided to remain as just nuna and dongseng. They broke up earlier this year, and because we do not take part in the private lives of the celebrities under our agency, we did not know until reports surfaced today.”

The couple originally met back in 2007 through MBC’s “Air City” and only became a couple in 2009.

The aftermath of the stir caused by Seo Tai Ji and Lee Ji Ah has been tremendous. Every rumor and unconfirmed story has been spread though the Internet and people are crazy about disclosing actress Lee Ji Ah's private stories. People are worrying about revealing secrets for a "witch-hunt." On April 22, when the secret about a 14 year marriage between Seo Tai Ji and Lee Ji Ah was disclosed, an Internet website using Lee Ji Ah's name (lee-zia.com) was created, and neverending series of information and reports about her past stories, private life, and people surrounding her have come.

The website subtitled "Lee Ji Ah, Who Is She?" has collected every news report and Netizens' writing on her concerning this stir. Seo Tai Ji also had kept his private life a secret, but almost every story of his school days and other information had already been disclosed in the past. On the other hand, Lee Ji Ah's real name and real age were unveiled from this incident, so a great deal of information about her has been pouring in endlessly.



The Internet website has been flooded with her photos taken in elementary school regarding her relationship with other classmates, her personal stories, and stories of her sisters, parents, relatives, and friends. Those stories were unveiled with the purpose of "disclosing truth," but the atmosphere is close to a "witch-hunt" that people want to completely disclose a person's every secret.

Lee Ji Ah's agency Keyeast released a report on April 23 to ask people to refrain from disclosing information about other people's personal information and private lives besides Lee Ji Ah. Keyeast said, "Lee Ji Ah's family members, relatives, and her friends have nothing to do with this incident, and they are ordinary people. They are having a difficult time and you are hurting their feelings from this incident. Please respect those people and do not unveil any more information on those people."



Another Internet website entitled "seojinyoy.com" meaning "We want truth from Seo Tai Ji" has been created. The host of the website said, "I am one of the people who love Seo Tai Ji and his music and I want Seo Tai Ji to directly come out and let people know the truth. We hope that he will conclude this incident."

The website has also collected every news item and story concerning this incident. The two websites "lee-zia.com" and "seojinyo.com" seem to be different, but they both have commercial advertisements on their front pages, so the two websites have been criticized greatly as they tried to earn money by using two stars' private information.

“The graphics were amazing. I didn’t record my lines while looking at the animation (like traditional anime movies). I got to deliver my lines just like I wanted to, and it’s so interesting to see what kind of facial expressions they’ve put on top of my lines. I’m so happy to be a part of this all,” Katori said.

“泣いた赤おに (Naita Aka-oni, The Red Ogre who Cried)” is scheduled to open in Japan cinemas on December 17 2011.

Additionally, Goo Hye Sun’s alleged anonymous interview from the past is catching attention.

The interview was held back in 2008 and stated that Goo Hye Sun wanted to enroll into Book Gong High School, where Seo Taiji attended, but because Book Gong High School is an all-male school, she went to the nearby Yeom Gwang Girls High School instead.

On the 27th, Goo Hye Sun’s management agency, YG Entertainment, flatly denied all the rumors to Star News stating, “Nothing about this is true. She never said anything about Seo Taiji.”

YG Entertainment also added, “Goo Hye Sun graduated from Boo Pyung Girls High School in Boocheon. She doesn’t even know where Book Gong High School or Yeom Gwang Girls High School is. We are just shocked that this fake interview is being reported like it’s true.”

About the Seo Taiji relationship rumor, YG Entertainment’s CEO Yang Hyun Suk said, “It’s only a rumor. It’s simply not true.”
