Taiwanese Version of The Hospitalwhich took close to 9 months of shooting, finally ends last February 26th. Male lead Jerry Yan and Director Cai Yue Xun emotionally cried on each other shoulders on the set. We filmed for 265 days!
Cai Yue Xun has always been slow in working to come up with a quality material, withThe Hospital not exempted for its actual shooting took about 9 months. Rumors say that Jerrys talent was even developed by the group of seasoned artists in the cast, thoroughly trained that showed improvement but still raw compared to the veteran stars. But the drama supporting actor Qian De Men called this unfair for him, Nobody has a right to criticize him. If you've seenMeteor Garden up to the present idol dramas, which actor can be like him?? Qian De Men added, Jerry Yan should not be criticized. If only you will only see the drama, then you will know he worked hard for it.

Jerry and "The Hospital" ends, Drinks up for the pains
and cries they shared for 265 days, and Warmly hugged Director Cai Yue XunSource:

Yesterday night, Cai Yue Xun (back row, 2nd from left) led "The Hospital" cast for wine drink for the end work, the only cast not present was male lead Jerry Yan.
"The Hospital" filming which took about 9 months to shoot finally ends in a wine drinking party but male lead Jerry Yan was absent because he will go to Japan. However, earlier night, Jerry dished out from his own pocket and went on a spicy pot restaurant to celebrate in advance. At the scene with Director Cai Yue Xun was touching as they cried on each other's shoulders, and emotionally spoke, "Together Shooting for 265 days!"
Cai Yue Xun's slow work comes out with fine workmanship. The Hospital is of course no exception, with preparations that took six months before, and with the actual shooting that took 9 months. All 25 episodes spent NT$80 Million in production costs which is rather unusual for the Taiwan TV circle. At first, The Hospital was scheduled to finish right after the Chinese New Year. But the Director wanted good cuts, and because looking for locations delayed it again for half month, exceeding the expenses further to about TWO MILLION. The other day, shooting was completed and yesterday night at the don't Hua south road's "Ji Yuan" restaurant, the casts and crew held their farewell party, with male lead Jerry Yan as the only missing cast.
Advance Celebration PartyBecause he was already scheduled to go to Japan, Jerry was unable to join the farewell party. Earlier night after the shooting ended, Jerry invited the crew for some spicy pot eat-out to celebrate their end work. Husband and wife Cai Yue Xun and Yu Xiao Hui , with Janine Zhang, Leon Dai, Yang Jin Hua and Tang Zhi Peng, were happily all present. Jerry's happy smile started with many delicious Bing Luan Pen and when finally hugging with the Director, both men cried. Scene was emotional and chaotic again. He can only think of the 265-days shooting, in which these are among his drop points and self-maturity. When he escorted and about to part with Cai Yue Xun at the street, he couldn't help but to shed tears.
While Cai Yue Xun was drinking , he started to get drunk and urged everybody to rise up, looked at Tang Zhi Ping and spoke, " Your energy is usually very lax," and teased with the crew as they laughed, and unexpectedly vomited the crew. No protection for the cold, he only thought to take off his pants, but luckily, there was a lady who fixed it and only then he tried to escape from the plunder. It was already early in the morning when they decided to end the day.

White Tower Update:[size=2]

The WT team is very smart and they thought of the problem ahead of time, that's why they have released the WT trailer with different versions, the version for Mainland China and the version for TW. In the version for TW, "The President" is used, but in the version for Mainland China, "The Highest Official" is used. There is no problem from Mainland China and the officials are happy with the term "The Highest Official." Now the controversy started on a public forum (PTT) in TW. What happened was that some "general audiences" from TW read the storyline for Mainland China in The Hospital's official site in which "The Highest Official" was used, so a small group criticized the WT team of not using the term "The President" in order to please the Mainland China. Well, the WT PR team responded to it immediately. They will re-set "The Hospital's" official site to have both simplified and traditional versions for audiences from both places. Like WT's staff indicates, they have been careful about this and during filming, whenever the term "The President" was used, they always filmed a second version with the term "The Highest Official", which most dramas won't consider this much. Most importantly, this drama is not about politics, and it is about what happens in the hospital.
After some fans who have read the related thread on PTT, they commented that someone intentionally raised this topic. That's good. As long as people are talking, more people will get curious about WT, that's good promotion. Thanks to those people!
