FROM METEOR GARDEN TO AUTUMN CONCERTO

Van Ness is seated front, right

One of th visitors to this blog left messages in the Cbox about a Taiwanese Drama that she watched called "Autumn Concerto" starring Van Ness Wu.  Well, I have only watched 4 episodes of Autumn Concerto and it is still too early for me to make any comments.  However, I read that it is a big hit in Taiwan and as a result Van Ness's popularity has skyrocketed.
Van Ness is not an actor that I am unfamiliar with as I first watched him in Meteor Garden 1 in 2001.  Yeah! That long ago. That time he had very long hair.  Being an ABC (American Born Chinese), he hadn't quite lost his Americanness.  Now in 2010, I see that he looks manlier.  From the 4 episodes of the drama that I watched so far, Van Ness seemed to be more matured and his acting appears to be much better.
By the way, Meteor Garden has the same storyline as Boys Over Flowers.  That is where we have the members of F4 or Flower 4.
