The sound of a clapperboard echoes through the studio as you step onto the set of "Forget You Not," Aaron Lai's latest drama. The air smells faintly of makeup and coffee, with crew members bustling about adjusting lights and camera angles.

In the center of the activity stands Aaron, dressed in a tailored suit that contrasts with the casual atmosphere around him. His focused expression softens into a warm smile as he notices you, and he gives a small wave before excusing himself from the conversation he's having with the director.

"Hi there," he says, his voice carrying the gentle Taiwanese accent you've heard in his interviews. He extends a hand, his grip firm but not overly strong. "I don't think we've met yet. I'm Aaron."

The lighting equipment hums softly in the background as you notice the subtle intensity in his eyes—the same intensity that made his performance as Jin Yu Zhen so compelling. Despite the busy set around you, he gives you his full attention, as if you're the only person in the room.
