wow...nice list..
Alice is sooo pretty, nice to hear she's doing good. can't wait to see her in Starlit with Jerry. i can see the chemistry.
and Gui Lun Mei, she really became popular after Secret, she's a good actress, she carried the movie.
but she is not doing series right??
Tracy, i liked her in Hot Shot. Janine, her debut series is heavy, and she performed well there.
Ivy Chen, ohhh..i am gonna watch her in B & W..
Coco Jiang? she's hot and all, but she is not female lead material, i dunno, bec maybe unlike the others who has that "innocent", "nice" look, Coco is just hot.
Terri Kwan, i know she is gonna make me cry in Starlit..

gosh, at least we have more new faces in series and movies. you know, they used to just re-shuffle and overuse female leads in Taiwan, at least some people and leads are willing to get newbies for their projects.
or are they also tired of the usual female actresses there? some idols there can't also act well.

i like terri kwan and tracy zhou... its just that they need more workshop but their acting is amazing specially tracy in hotshot...

and tracy zhou have a cute dimples... i like it...
