Hear, See, Know Eddie Peng

Taiwanese heartthrob Eddie Peng may be the male lead in the best-selling local movie in Taiwan last year, but the boy-next-door went through low tide as he sorts out complicated contractual issues with his previous company. Hear Me, which broke the 10-million mark in box office sales in Taiwan (equivalent to about S$430,000), became like a flashlight that helps him find his way out of this dark tunnel.

The 26-year-old is known for his “sunny boy” image and started his showbiz career when he appeared in a TV commercial as a child. He moved to Canada at 14 years old, and subsequently starred in his first drama series Tomorrow in 2002 when he bumped into the director, who happened to be the same man behind the said commercial, when he was back in Taiwan. For the past 7-odd years Eddie took on various roles in idol dramas such as Scent of Love, Wayward Kenting and Honey Clover, movies such as My DNA Says I Love You and My So-called Love, and even period dramas such as Chinese Paladin and The Young Warriors.

This time, in Hear Me, the outgoing actor continued to show off his humorous side with the wide spectrum of facial expressions he’s known for, as well as body language, which is even more important as half his lines are actually in sign language. Eddie’s role, a 20-something young man named Tian Kuo whose family owns a small restaurant, falls in love with hearing-impaired girl Yang Yang (played by Ivy Chen Yi Han) and woos her through hand signals rather than sweet words.

UrbanWire met up with the friendly actor when he stopped by Singapore last month, and finds out some behind-the-scenes stories while he filmed the movie!

Hear Me opened in Taiwan in August last year, and is now showing in Singapore cinemas.
