Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Taiwanese SET dramas of this era (2016) pioneered the 'long-form rom-com' — 60+ episode counts that let relationships breathe at glacial pace, influencing later Korean weekend dramas.
Melvin Sia reportedly performed most of his own stunts as 'The Bodyguard,' including the island waterfall sequences — impressive given the production's tight schedule.
