Jerry Yan’s privacy invaded

The Taiwanese actor’s passport photo, flight details and home address were revealed to fans

Taiwanese actor Jerry Yan has always kept his personal life away from the limelight.

He's never been photographed at his residence, and his home address has been kept a secret even to his colleagues. The office has always been the meeting place for all of Jerry's job appointments.

Also, Jerry has never allowed his mother and elder sister to be seen by the media, so much so that his mother's neighbours didn't know that Jerry is her son.

However, the unexpected happened when Jerry applied for a visa to Shanghai, China.

Not only was his application form exposed, the actor's flight number, passport photo, and even his residential address were revealed, shocking the renowned actor.

Jerry responded to the issue through his agency and expressed that he is "not affected by the issue", and thanked everyone for their concern.

However, his management agency was enraged. They are already searching for the person responsible and will be deciding on the next steps later.

According to the management company, Jerry's trip to Shanghai was confidential, but his fans still managed to find out about his schedule and greeted him at the airport. The pictures taken at the airport were also uploaded to Jerry's worldwide fans site immediately.

Responding to this, a surprised Jerry asked his fans, "How do you know that I'm back? I've already tried to keep it low."

The polite star then proceeded to sign autographs for his fans and took pictures with them.

I guess even the media have missed him a lot.  Today's news is just like a summary of what happened recently. 

It was reported that Jerry's baby photo was initially exposed on Miniblog yesterday, but I think this baby photo was firstly exposed publicly years ago.  It was reported that fans wanted to bite his little, chubby leg as he's too cute. 

Then Dramadream was asked again about Jerry's accepting any of the numerous rumored drama projects from the web, and Dramadream's response was as usual saying, "There have been so many offers recently that we had contacts with a lot of them.  Everything is still in consideration and discussion.  As soon as something is set, announcement will be made, so fans can know how he is." 

Finally, Jerry's attending AC's birthday dinner was also mentioned, and both parties didn't reject the possibility of working together again in the future.  On the other hand, Dramadream also denied the rumored, recent invitation from a charity organization in TW.

It was reported that a while ago, YCX stated to resume filming drama this month, and there is a rumor on the web that he is going to film a tv drama, Wo De Can Lan Ren Sheng (meaning: My Magnificent Life), casting Wang Luo Dan, Weng Hong, etc... And the director is Chen Ming Zhang, who was also the director who worked with Selina before but ended up having the accident. Yesterday, YCX's agency, Dramadream, responded, "There have been contacts with the production team."

The above information was exposed on the web due to the casting of the supporting actress, but according to the rumored storyline, it appears to be adapted from the Korean drama, Shining Inheritance.

My Magnificant Life's director will be Chen Ming Zhang. He directed numerous high ratings idol dramas in the past, such as The Prince Who Turns Into A Frog, Fated To Love You, etc... Recently, another idol drama, Love You, directed by him, has reached the No. 1 ratings of 3.34. According to source, Jerry was contacted for Love You initially to team with Rainie Yang.

When Cheng Ming Zhang filmed I Have A Date With Spring, Selina was seriously injuried, and Selina's fiance blamed him for responsibilities. Finally, days ago, after Chen Ming Zhang met with Selina's fiance, the matter was resolved. Yesterday, Jerry's agency, Dramadream said, "Have had contacts with the production team of My Magnificant Life, but it is not conclusive. We are in discussion with several drama projects." Jerry is Ella's friend. When asked whether there is any concern to work with Chen Ming Zhang, Dramadream indicated, "Read in the newspapers that the matter has been resolved, so it should not have any impact."
