Taiwanese actress Alice Ko has opened up about her personal journey of self-discovery, particularly influenced by her participation in the reality travel show "A Little Bit of Flower." The show, which featured Ko alongside actors Wei Lin, Sun Hsiao-tzu, and Chou Hsiao-han exploring Taichung, unexpectedly led Ko to confront and acknowledge aspects of her personality she described as "cold, difficult, and lazy."

This show has truly made me cherish it from the bottom of my heart.

— Alice KoReflecting on the unscripted nature of the reality program and the genuine emotional expression it fostered.

Reflecting on the final episode of the Taichung trip, Ko expressed her appreciation for the unscripted nature of the reality program. She noted that the show's ability to foster genuine emotional expression among the cast members, without a predefined script, made the experience deeply meaningful. "This show has truly made me cherish it from the bottom of my heart," she stated.

I only now truly feel that you are different.

— Wei LinTelling Alice Ko during a touching moment on the show.

Ko shared a particularly touching moment when Wei Lin told her, "I only now truly feel that you are different." This comment moved Ko, a Pisces, to confess her perceived flaws. "I'm not a girl who makes a good first impression. I have no patience, I'm a bit cold, I'm difficult, I'm lazy. Even I myself have only slowly gotten to know myself better in these past few years," she admitted. The shared vulnerability led to a rare moment of collective emotion, with Ko noting that the cast members cried together, a sight she found surprising given their initial lack of connection.

I'm not a girl who makes a good first impression. I have no patience, I'm a bit cold, I'm difficult, I'm lazy. Even I myself have only slowly gotten to know myself better in these past few years.
