Eight o'clock drama actor gets Influenza B after being 'hit by cars' repeatedly; discusses Zhu Yu-mou's 'love troubles'

Taiwanese actor Liang Xi, known for his role as a temporary host on the popular variety show 'Queen,' recently opened up about the grueling realities of filming Taiwanese 'eight o'clock' dramas. Having just wrapped up a role in TTV's 'Treasure Island Ximi Le,' Liang Xi shared a harrowing anecdote from his time on set for 'Chasing Success.' He recounted filming an intense scene involving multiple car impacts, only to end up in the emergency room afterward with a diagnosis of Influenza B.

This experience has deeply impressed upon Liang Xi the paramount importance of maintaining health while working in the demanding, fast-paced environment of continuous dramas. He humorously, yet with a hint of lingering fear, described himself as a 'limit athlete' during that period, emphasizing that 'on-air dramas cannot stop.' His ordeal highlights the physical toll that such productions can take on actors, pushing them to perform even when unwell.

“

I remember that day I kept filming the scene of being hit by a car, and only went to the emergency room after finishing. I was diagnosed with Influenza B.

Beyond his personal health struggles on set, Liang Xi also found himself fielding questions about the much-publicized relationship troubles of his colleague, Zhu Yu-mou. As a temporary host on 'Queen,' Liang Xi is often privy to backstage discussions and media attention surrounding the show's cast. Demonstrating considerable tact and a strong sense of self-preservation, Liang Xi praised Zhu Yu-mou as a warm and supportive senior colleague. However, he carefully sidestepped direct involvement in Zhu's personal affairs, stating that their relationship wasn't close enough for him to inquire about such private matters. He expressed a sincere hope for Zhu's well-being, emphasizing that any further concern at this juncture might appear forced, thus maintaining a professional distance while conveying empathy.

Now he has to be well first, we are not that familiar, excessive concern at this time is too deliberate, but in my heart I hope everything is well.
