I am one who reveres the art of acting, a girl born from the soil of my beloved Taiwan. If you know me through my works, then nothing brings me greater joy than to know that you had laughed or cried to it, or had looked through a different window because of it. In real life, I am not quite the same. Perhaps together we might have to go to the movies, enjoy a few meals, or bike around a few times, for you to understand me a little better….”to be frank”, this is because sometimes I am not even sure that I understand myself all that well…^^"-- Ariel
