“Butterfly Lovers” held its premiere in Taiwan tonight, and leads Chun and Charelne and Director Ma all attended. Shaun Tam also attended the premiere, and besides tons of fans and media at the scene, Jay Chou and Show Luo also specially sent flower baskets, congratulating “Butterfly Lovers”, and hoping it will gain success.

Yesterday at the Hong Kong premiere, Chun actually shed tears and he explained that it was because when he saw in the movie that Charlene has to separate with her father, it made him think of in reality, where he also cannot be with his family due to work, and he cannot help but tear up.

“Butterfly Lovers” will officially air on the 9th of October, and coincidentally, one day later will be Chun’s birthday. The movie company specially incorporated the idea of “2 jin (equal to half a kg) wine, 1 jin meat” from the movie and brought it to the premiere in real life. There was no traditianal birthday cake to help celebrate Chun’s birthday, but rather the movie company sent 2 jin wine and 1 jin meat, and Chun thought this was very unique and interesting. Chun, Charlene, Director Ma and all the executives then drank all the birthday wine and hoped that the movie will receive good ratings. Although there was no birthday cake at the premiere today, but the thoughtful fans had already prepared a cake to give to Chun, and even the other 3 Fahrenheit members attended the premiere, and presented Chun with flowers. Charlene also expressed that she hopes that if she has time, she will secretly go buy a birthday present for Chun, and this made Chun feel very touched. At the premiere, Charlene personally cut up the steak that the movie company had sent, and fed it to Chun. The sweetness of the couple made everyone green with envy, and this handsome guy-beautiful girl couple has been named this year’s best onscreen couple.

Lately in Taiwan, there has been a trend of stripping with good ratings. Chun, from idol drama “Hot Shot” to movie “Butterfly Lovers”, everyone wishes to see Chun strip, however Chun very firmly stated that he will nto strip, and does not wish to follow this kind of trend. Chun expressed that if box office really breaks $80,000,000, then he will definitely treat everyone to dinner, to thank all the workers.

In the movie, Chun ahd Charlene’s love story will move people to tears. This is Chun’s first ever movie, and although he has watched the original Chinese version of the movie, yesterday, he stayed behind to watch the new Chinese version, because this time, he has personally dubbed the new Chinese version, so he wished to see the results.
