Autumn’s Concerto (Next Stop, Happiness) is my favorite new drama! It’s still airing in Taiwan right now but you can watched subbed episodes at Sugoideas or on Viikii. Taiwanese drama lovers might recognize Vanness Wu of F4 fame from Meteor Garden. He’s got a totally new (and incredibly hot!) look with the short hair and his acting has definitely improved a lot. He puts so much heart into the character of Ren Guang Xi that you can’t help but fall in love. I’ve never watched Ady An in a drama before but she’s a very talented actress as Liang Mu Cheng too, not to mention adorable little Xiao Xiao Bin, who plays Xiao Le.
The storyline itself contains several cliches that we’ve all seen in Asian dramas before (thankfully no one dies in this one!) but the chemistry between Ady An and Vanness Wu makes it a beautiful and moving story to watch and I found myself unable to stop. I flew through the first 13 episodes in two days, and the 14th episode just aired today! Like I said before, it’s currently still airing in Taiwan right now (and capturing first place in ratings!) but the episodes are usually subbed within a day or two so us non-Chinese speaking viewers can happily follow along too. That’s actually why I started looking for a new drama to watch; I’ll be studying abroad in Shanghai starting in February and I wanted to keep reviewing and listening to Chinese to prepare myself. I can understand bits and pieces as I watch the drama now, but I still need subs to fully understand everything ^^;
