Falling Artists - F4's Imaginations Burst

F4, who have been very popular last year have been progressing on their own this year. Many a times, there were even rumours of Jerry Yan setting up his own company. This year, when the 4 of them came to HK, although they had fans recieving them, the craziness level was unlike before.

All 4 of them had gossips flying around, like Ken Chu having intimate secret meet-up sessions with Li BingBing and his other girlfriend, Mayi cried and pointed out that he was stepping on 2 boats. Vic Zhou is going steady with Da S, leaving the girls imginations burst. Vanness Wu's Dragon Squad movie in the HK box office didn't do as well as expected and Jerry Yan is only busy fliming The Hospital. Adding to korea's Rain new popularity, fans have a change of heart.

Well, I mean...Bi may not have the gorgeous and charming looks of F4 but Bi surely knows how to entertain in terms of dancing, singing, etc.

It's good that F4 is finally having a unification.

Taiwanese boy band F4 aims to reunite next year

2005-11-09 01:59:16 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS



HONG KONG, Nov 9 (AP) -- The popular Taiwanese boy band F4 hopes to reunite for an album and a concert in Hong Kong next year, one of its members, Vanness Wu, said Monday.

Wu said arrangements are ongoing.

F4 has not formally disbanded, but the four band members have been pursuing individual careers.

Wu said he misses his days with F4.

"When we first went abroad for promotion, when we first came across fans, when things were crazy, it was the four of us together," Wu said at an event promoting his new action movie, "Dragon Squad."

"The four of us got where we are now together. We started out together. ... We have that friendship," he said.

F4 is famous for the TV show "Meteor Garden." The band was so popular in Southeast Asia that another member, Jerry Yan, was received by Philippine President Gloria Macapal Arroyo when he visited the country in November 2003.

The other F4 members are Ken Chu and Vic Chou.

"Dragon Squad" is the story of a group of young Interpol officers who pursue a fugitive taken by mercenaries in Hong Kong. Wu plays an Interpol officer from the U.S.

Wu also previously played a fighter in the action movie "Star Runner."

Ken Chu Doesnt want to be F4
Jerry Yan was the first to separate from the F4 group, to form his own team. Yesterday, Ken Chu attended the launching his new Delicacy Book "Ken Chu's Delicious Delicacies" and actually said," We were never a team." This led the people to think that F4 will really disband.

Ken Chu said, "Want to see us all dancing? On stage, we are also all doing own own. We are friends and there are rebellious. " He felt that F4 only started as a role in "Meteor Garden" anime, and it's really not their decision.

Practicing in his underwears

His new book contains recipes which he collected for the past seven years. He also mentioned that he kept on perfecting them for three years and still continues. In addition, he also practices at home wearing just his underwears.

Translation of F4 real fashion check!



From princely looking young men to insignificant juvenile delinquents,
their men's looks, versatile and alluring, are all here for you to see!

F4 REAL FASHION CHECK!

A complete analysis of the four-men's charismata from the popular stylist, Fuyu-san, who have styled for many men's fashion magazines, big artists, current hot gorgeous actors. Perhaps, in spite of himself, he will nod and say "Oh, yes! I really like it there!"



A shot of four each shines with his own personality. Although they all wore dark suits, the shot clearly shows their different personalities.

"They all wore slender pants and looked trendy. Ken wore the necktie tightly around his neck. Vic wore his necktie loosely and had an accessory on his jacket breast. Jerry looked sensual wearing a shiny shirt and with a pocket chief and sunglasses. Vanness showed his personality, wearing a necklace but not a necktie. In Japan, people usually match thin and narrow neckties of matte tone with small-collar white shirts. The shiny neckties Ken and Vic wore subtly suggest that it's a Taiwan look. As for Jerry, the button pinned on his jacket looks to be a better combination with his shirt." (Fuyu-san)

The pure look of dressing in whichever they like looks cute

"The special characteristic of Asian male talents is to match tight tops with wide loose pants. The main stream of wearing pants with wide-diameter legs looks somewhat nostalgic. It's not just F4 dressing like this, it's also commonly shared by top stars of Hong Kong and Korea. However, today in Japan, the man stream is wearing tight jackets with thin pant legs. I feel that's where the difference is," said Fuyu-san.

As Japan and Taiwan are different places, it's natural for them to have different fashion trends.

"Because its preference with individual items and accessories, it sure feels carrying more power than the Japanese fashion which tends to place emphasis on balance."

Japanese well-dressed talents with a fashion mode covering the whole body look great, but the way they wear whatever they like and dash around confidently, saying "This fits me!", can be viewed as one of the reasons they look charming.

The person who set my stylist soul on fire is Vic!

"Among the four, the one I most want to style is Vic. Having a long neck and a slender figure, he will look great in anything. He has a refreshing atmosphere and I will suggest him wearing a thin suit with a knit turtleneck. I will also trim his hair slightly into a wolf-like hairdo. It's a big makeover!"

As Vic has a pure image, any taste of western clothes will suit him fine!! With big large dark eyes, his eye power will be enhanced multiple times. He will win even more fans than now. How I want to see him looking alluring and dressed fashionably!






Jerry carries a sexy atmosphere, I would very much like to fashion him in rock taste. As for brands, it will be something like Gucci kind of costumes. Furthermore, it fits him to look sexy in knit or jersey with his chest revealed. In terms of color, it should be in grown-up dark tone, which matches his long hair and atmosphere and will enhanced his charms.

He looks cute in casual wear, but still sexy Jerry looks the best. I would like to move him in this direction and take him to a sweeter world.

Is Vanness the one among the four with the most fashion mode? I feel he should stick to used denims, silver accessories, brass and belt. Recently the mainstream of Japan's men's-wear fashion is wearing used-look tops with low rider jeans and looking dirty, but Vanness should wear clothing items he likes in a clean way. While exuding an aroma of the B family, cleanness is the characteristics.

The reason to style him in items with Los Angeles flavor but in a Taiwanese clean way is to look trendy but with an approachable atmosphere.

For Ken, checker shirt and denim coordinates suit him very well. He's tall, so American style of used and manly clothes suits him to a T. Wouldn't he look very much himself, not overly rough with his hair growing a little bit longer and growing some beard on his face?

Come to think of it, he would look great with beard on his face. I've found him a nice style of looking grown-up and dependable, a little different than his characters in the dramas.

======================



Vic in dark suit and brightly-colored jacket. With refreshing smiles, perfectly-fit tailored jackets would have fitted him!

"I think suits fit him, but the sizes of the jackets were wrong and the pants were too fat. They didn't look bad, but because of those, they feel like just something worn by normal white collars. The style of the suit without tie (lower left) looks younger. Nowadays, should fashionable people wear their jackets long or short? There are no set rules, but the jackets shouldn't look old. Dark fat pants look old-fashioned. Contrarily, if dressed with balance and wearing jackets of sizes that fit, according to the fashion mode, he would have looked very stylish."

Ken Chu donates books
F4 issues red tag again

Ken Chu's published a new book titled "Zhu Xiao Tian De Mei Wei Guang Xi." Yesterday he sold gift boxed with a group of special education children of the Yu Cheng She Fu Foundation. Although he had said that "F4 was never a group," in March F4 plans on reuniting to hold a concert in Hong Kong as well as releasing a new album.

Ticket preordering at the end of the month
Near the end of last year, after rumors of Jerry Yan opening his own company many fans wondered whether or not F4 will reunited. Right now the four plan on holding 4 concerts in Hong Kong at the end of March. At the end of this month tickets will be available for preordering. After more than 3 years of separation, F4's group album will be released in March. Recording has already begun.

Besides Jerry, who is still filming "The Hospital" and Ken promoting his new book, the other two members are done with their projects and are preparting for the concert. Their manager Zhi Xiang Li said that they might have to work through Chinese New Years.

Ken's new recipe book has been selling really well. He has donated 100 of his books to society, which comes with a gift by Yu Cheng's special education children. However, these gifts are only for the first 100 orders. These profits will be donated to Yu Cheng She Fu Foundation. The charity hotline is (02)82833142.

[B][SIZE=7][COLOnoreferalspurple]I think that all the member in F4 are so cute and handsome!
In the tv-drama ''Meteor Garden I - II'' they were very good acting, especially Jerry when he played the mainrole as a rich guy together with 大S and the other member of F4.
They were respected by all people in school and outside the school, but 大S didn't like them becuz they were always teasing people at/outside the school.
When I first time watch the tv-drama, I think it were very good...!!!!!!
It's a romantic/joyful drama with some little comedy.....
I really recommend this drama for those who like F4!

F4 to meet and drill for concerts after Chinese New Year


Reported by Yang Hui Ling
Jan. 20, 2006, Da Cheng Bao

F4 will soon launch their Hong Kong concerts. Recently the four handsome guys are becoming more active with one thing after another. It looks they are warming up in advance! Yan Cheng Xu, who has been busily shooting 'The Hospital,' appeared yesterday to promote Mia jewelry. Zaizai's new drama 'Shen Qing Mi Ma' will soon to be on air. It's been hotly discussed on on-line forums. Zhu Xiao Tian's new book 'Zhu Xiao Tian De Mei Wei Guan Xi' has topped the charts of various bookstores. Wu Jian Hao returned to the U.S. at the beginning of the month to spend the Chinese New Year with his family. But F4 will get together after the Chinese New Year to practice intensively for the concerts where fans will be able to feast their eyes on them.

Angie Chai, the mother of idol dramas, wrapped up directing 'Silence - Shen Qing Mi Ma' in November of last year. Currently the drama is in the post-production phase. As we understand, 'Silence - Shen Qing Mi Ma' won't be finalized until after the Chinese New Year because it's now around the holiday season and the movements of TV stations' executives are still not clear. But 'Silence' has already created buzz on Internet forums. Many fans are eagerly awaiting the drama to be aired as soon as possible. Its trailer has become the hottest e-mail for forwarding to friends.

Artists from China, Hong Kong and Korea - Zaizai, Andy Hui, Park Eun Hye - costar in the drama. Moreover, Da Zai Xian was exposed around the time when the drama started shooting. People are eagerly anticipating Zaizai's performance in the drama.

Assistant Manager Lu Shu Juan indicates that, besides being interviewed by domestic and international media, Zaizai currently is actively engaging in taking singing lessons.

Zhu Xian Tian's new book came on the market a few days ago. In addition to homely recipes, he has included many photos expressing his moods so that fans can know more about his life. Fans really like the book. The book has topped the Internet charts of both Kingstone and Eslite bookstores consecutively for two weeks.

Brought with him more than 1000 children books he raised for his birthday wish, Zhu Xiao Tian did one day of volunteer work at the Taichung Orphanage. In addition to eating with the children, cutting cakes, and taking photos, he fulfilled children's requests and warmed their hearts. Zhu Xiao Tian said happily, "This is the best birthday present."

F4 come out one by one. The only one missing is Wu Jian Hao who is currently in the U.S.. Lu Shu Juan expressed that, at the beginning of the month, Wu Jian Hao returned to the U.S. to practice singing and spend the holiday with his family. After the Chinese New Year, F4 will once again appear together on the same stage for the concerts.

Everyone hope to be forever friends and hoping that fans will always remember F4.

F4 have ever held a concert in year 2002 and created chaos. Tickets were place at online bids for 1400 for one ticket. Fans requested for more concerts but their schedule have already been fully packed at that time. And it's been postponed to only March this year. However, when the foursome decided to sing again, fans from Canada, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan and China phoned the company and Azio requesting to book tickets. Internal booking have already overshot and the crew are having problems allocating seats. Everyone have requested for seats that would allow them close interaction like shaking hands with the foursome. In order to satisfy fans, on this Tuesday[24th Jan], tickets are open for credit card bookings. Tickets would be $480,$250 and $120 as long as you book using Visa or Master, no credit card company is stated.

In order to make it grand, the crew have spent money for the concert poster. They even invited famous designer, Wu Li Lue who have won Jin Xiang Jiang and also Yu Jia An. They even managed to get Gucci & Louis Vutton as sponsors for their clothes. They had actually arranged for the 4 of them to come to HK to flim the concert pictures but all of them were too busy. Jerry is busy with fliming The Hospital while the other 3 have other jobs onhand. For them, the fliming crew had a total of 20 people flying to Taiwan just to take individual shorts in 4 chapters in 2 days, putting the picture together.

In the poster, in order to match the concert theme, Forever. It's estimated that they spent a 5 digit amount to do the light board at the back. Other than that, the 4 appeared in black white cool suits. Jerry and Vanness wears white suits while Zaizai and Ken spots the black suits. They were even praised for being very professional. The moment they got into place, they could do pose that is filled with charm, just like models, making all the female crew at the scene not dare to see them straight in the eye to prevent being electrocuted. Also, the 4 of them would be in HK in Feb to hold a huge press conference. Since they're getting together, they would be able to talk alot.

Other than that, they have brought chaos to the sponsors as everyone was fighting. There are already lots of big fashion brands who are fighting for the rights. Tickets are currently placed to be sold during the start of Feb, it's believed it'll create another wave again!

F4 would end its ultimate concert vow on March 22

Source: http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2006/new/ja...today-show3.htm
January 24, 2006

Over the last two years, the public had seen "united" F4 for only four times. On March, they will join hands again at Hong Kan Stadium Hong Kong for a hit! Separated for four years, and now for F4's second world tour concert , they have began preparations since last year. this time they will go to East Asia, first for Japan and then Korea for the concerts.

Chosen Hong Kan for the first concert

These past two years, apart from Jordan, Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan for the cola commercial, with projects and pictorial shoots, every F4 member remained even more busy . Also because each of thier schedules were difficult to set causing the "F4 Forever 4" concert preparations pile up with problems.

At present, its already defenite, on March 22 to 24, the four will be in Hong Kan Stadium Hong Kong to hold the 3 concerts. Because the four members are gradually aging, each member have grown equally reponsible, with Vic Zhou not yet serving the army , not one could predict if there would be a third world concert tour that is why there are industry rumors that this time, its not impossible that F4 will end this ultimate concert tour as a remembrance performance.

As to why it wont be held in Taiwan, and had chosen Hong Kong, management explained, " Because of schedule problems, I already peeled several hairs in my skin!" Productions side confirmed that the Hong Kong residents and those from Southeast Asia were the first to suggest for the Hon Kong venue, as neigboring countries are more convenient to go there.

In fact, as the four members are all busy to shoot for the concert poster, all cannot show up to be together for the photoshoot, and aslo already relied on Hong Kong's Gold prize photographer and Art Director Wu Li Lu and Yu Jia An, who especially flown in to Taiwan twenty staff , separately finishing for two days the shooting at four different time intervals, and finally using computer generation.

No Taiwan performances this year

Assistant Director Guo Xue Lin reasoned out that because he is now thinking for Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand .etc. concert schedules, his Boss Ge Fu Hong still asks for an "F4 Taiwan concert" until now. Presently, it seems that they have no time to hold it in Taiwan.

Compared to the past four years, the present F4 World Tour Concert would clearly emphasize their "individual character." Although they would have foursome choruses, the big parts would have performances of each member with new song clips. Time can also be adjusted very minimally, because the production costs, compared from four years ago, increased by as much as 30 % , as a result of the four's concert talent fees.

F4 sound will move Asia-wide
Black and White charm unfolds their handsomeness


Source: http://news.msn.com.tw/greatnews/viewnews.asp?newsid=2668419
January 24, 2006

Following thier previous concert tour four years ago, F4 will again work together with songs that would conquer the entire Asia. with its first concert to be held at the Hong Kuan Stadium in Hong Kong. Also, there are plans for Japan, Korea, Thailand, India, Philippines, Us, Mainland China, Malaysia and others unfolding an Asia-wide concert tour performances. Each member busy with work, F4 especially scheduled a photoshoot for the promo poster. The four handsome guys lined up standing, even if the "black and white" suits are still electrifying and astonishing as before!

After a long time, F4 will hold a concert tour on March at the Hong Kuan Stadium in Hong Kong, entitled "F4 Forever Four" meaning that the four's friendship will exist forever. Even if Jerry has already left Fu Long Management, plans for F4 projects will remain unchanged. During the 2002 F4 concert tours, using idol drama's "Meteor Garden" wave, having tickets for the concert were hard to look for. On line purchases even reached to NT$5000 causing concert goers to bite their tongues. This year, F4's Asia -wide concert tour will have one performance in each country, and not only did the overseas fans rushed to inquire at the official website but also do all costs to book and buy the tickets, causing endless headaches for the seating plans for host unit East Asia Entertainment. Yesterday, (23rd), the official net opened the use of credit cards to buy the concert tickets. Price ranges from HK$120 to HK$480 or about NT$500 to NT$2000. By February, F4 will go to Hong Kong for a press conference, estimated to formally sell the tickets later .


East Asia Entertainment especially funded a 6-figure sum in Hong Kong Dollars to photoshoot the concert poster. It even invited photo golden prize winner and celebrated Art Director Wu Li Lu and Yu Jia An power team. Originally, plans are for F4 to go to Hong Kong for the poster pohotoshoot. But because Jerry was rushing to film his new drama "The Hospital", Ken also uptight with his new book's "Ken Zhu's Delicacies" promo, and together with Da S' sweet honey love affair of Zai Zai and his soon to be released drama "Silence" is now in the editing stage. As for Vanness, he is actively rehearsing for the concert. To coordinate with the four members' schedules, Hong Kong production team especially flew to Taiwan to shoot , and the staff had bigger praises for the very special four , when they used the black and white suits , their gentle handsome looks strongly appeared brightly in the pictures, full of charm whether seated or standing, also causing the female staff with electrifying and astonishing praises.

I did hear they had to shoot the posters separately because of their busy schedule!!! Hence they look were 'separated' in the photo rather than a group hug shoot. Still the effect was fantastic!! They have grown up a lot and perhaps it is time for Jerry to change his image too! He can't rely on the long hair look forever!!

can someone tell me the track names of their meteor rain album..? thanks alot.

F4 Unites to begin its concert tour
on March at the Hong Guan House


Source: http://udn.com/NEWS/ENTERTAINMENT/ENT6/3133499.shtml
January 24, 2006


F4 will again unite, for three days on March 20 to 24, at Hong Kong's Hong Guan Stadium to start their concert tour. In addition, they are actively preparing for their newest special album, for which they have already finished recording 5-6 songs but because it's very hard for the four to be together, with its release date also not yet defenite, they have, however,accepted to record original compositions and they also personally joined in the album production, allowing their fans to see their breakthough as mature artists.

After 2002, F4 had two Hong Kuan Stadium concert tours. For the "Forever" concert tour, it will remind that the four members will be forever good friends. Host sources said that today will be the first public credit card booking for VISA and MASTERCARD holders for the advance ticket purchases. F4's official website has also already finished their member's booking for tickets last January 18 .

Going for the reunion, F4's work schedules problems are rather difficult. Originally, host unit planned that F4 should go to Hong Kong and gather together in alarge room for the photoshoot of the promo poster. But because Jerry is continously busy filming "The Hospital," he cant go. Host swifly changed plans and forced the pictorial team to go instead to Taiwan. But when they arrived, the four couldnt still appear together at the same time, finally, they were forced to shoot each of them separately for two days and later computer-generated the group picture.

Break-up is only rumors
F4's first gathering will start in Hong Kan, HK

For the past years, solo fflight and disband rumors were unceasing. F4 bounced back to these moves and came up that their break-up are all just rumors.! The three handsome guys will have their first gathering at Hong Kan, HK on March 22 to 24 for a three-day "Forever Four" concert tour. News began spreading that early pre-booking for the tickets are in every pipeline from various regions, where the three day concert tickets have not yet officially sold yet, which the ticket box office only announced too fast and too early and that an F4 upsurge is bound to ignite again!

F4 in the recent years disbanded, and with solo flight rumors when Jerry's contract with the management company expired later, to form his own group. "Yan Cheng Xu Working Team" . He would also be setting up his personal official website , which led Bao Long to hold up for his solo-flight act. Soon after, Bao Long officially denied it and expressed the making of the four men's future meeting.. The result is actually speaking like him of the 2002 Asia-wide concert tour before. Now , F4 will be in Hong Kan, HK for the reunion , and not just the break-up rumors., and also to let fans revive their old dreams.

Choosing Hong Kong to start their concert tour, F4 manager Zhi Xiang Li explained to media that F4 also wanted to hold the first concert tour in Taiwan. But currently, both venue and schedule had not yet determined . Vanness predicted that he would release his album later in May. The other three would also be busy with their respective movie and TV dramas so their schedule must be fixed, which was thought to be a major problem.

Translation of Phoenix TV station's reporting on F4 Hong Kong Concerts

Jan. 25, 2006

The news is about F4 who haven't appeared for a long time. They haven't been together for a long time; they each have their own career developments. I'd like to tell fans who like them that they will have a series of 3 concerts at Hong Kong Coliseum from March 22 to March 24.


Time 0:13

Moreover, they have changed their name. Aren't they calling themselves F4 anymore? Actually it's still F4, but the F has changed from the previous "flower" to "forever." They hope that people will remember them forever. And they are the F4 lasting forever.




Time: 0:35

Voiceover: F4 who were together only for four times in the past two years. They are going to hold concerts in March in Hong Kong!



Time 0:47

Vanness: We will hold concerts starting March 20 at Hong Kong Coliseum. Finally F4 are next to each other again. I only want to say this time the concerts will be 100 times better than the last time.




Time 1:00

Voiceover: F4 shot promotion posters for the concerts in smart black and white suits. They are full of confidence and will show their previously unseen mature charisma.



Time 1:10

Zaizai: People can see how much growth we've grown. This time it will be different than the previous concerts. I won't focus on singing love songs any more. I won't be packaged like a prince any more. I feel I've grown older and should not appear like a kid. I should move toward looking more mature and being more versatile.



Time 1:36

Voiceover: It's very difficult to gather the four of them together at the same time. It makes the preparation works for the forever-four concerts more difficult. Even shooting the promotion posters had to be done separately. Yan Cheng Xu couldn't show up at the last minute because of shooting a commercial.



Time 1:45

Zaizai: This time the four of us have spent a lot of time and thoughts preparing for the concerts. You can expect that the concerts will feel differently. Not only compared with previous concerts, they will probably even look different than the future concerts.



Time 2:03

Voiceover: The last concerts were held four years ago. The F4's Hong Kong concerts not only crash the break-up rumor but also allow fans to relive the old dreams. Whether you like it or not, F4 welcome your criticism and suggestions.



Time 2:14

Zaizai: It's better you come prepared to ridicule us. Then you will find that the concerts are really different than the previous ones.

Latest message from Mr.Chih (www.chihchat.com)

Dear All,



Have received lots of questions about F4 concert, We truly understand your expectations

and worries on concert details. First of all, we’d like to explain that in the production of a

concert, the roles of the management company are on artist schedule arrangement,

concert programme arrangement with organiser, concert coordinator and producer, and

concert rundown confirmation. Areas like promotional shooting, press release, ticketing,

venue area division etc are all responsible and controlled by the concert organiser.



F4ever has tried the best to fight for tickets, yet the recent change of stage design resulted

in overall lessening of $480 tickets, in which F4ever’s ticket spread has been reduced in

proportion. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by this unexpected change, and

believe at the same time that most of the member can join the concert according to

their concert date selection.



Time for concert rehearsals and preparation becomes really tight, we will try our very best

to bring you a rich and entertaining concert. Let’s show our understanding and get ready

for this long-awaited concert.



Tomorrow will be Chinese New Year’s Eve, I would like to represent F4 and the management

company to wish you:




A Happy and Prosperous New Year!

Chih (06. 01.27)

. Because the series is so successful, the person who produces this series also signed them to her company and decides to group all these 4 guys together to form a boy-group using the same group name from the series, that is "F4".



Did you mean F4 was formed after the Meteor Garden was release? so these guys were actors before they were singers? That's pretty impressive.

Yes, F4 became popular because of Meteor Garden, since the four of them were called F4 in that series. Because of their popularity, they decided to form a band called F4 after the producers realized how successful they would be.
