Light The Night screenwriter hints at possible fourth season
TAIPEI - The screenwriter of Taiwanese mystery drama Light The Night has hinted at a possible fourth season soon after the third season was released on Netflix on Friday (March 18).
This was disclosed by Ryan Tu, who wrote the series, at a press event for the movie My Best Friend's Breakfast on Saturday.
He is also the writer and director of the romance movie, which stars singer Eric Chou and actress Moon Lee.
Tu told the media that a fourth season, or even a movie, for Light The Night is still at the planning stage. He said: "It is only possible after the script is written, so it is still uncertain for now."
He also said that the actors and crew members of Light The Night were told not to discuss the story so that viewers could enjoy the show without spoilers.
The hit series, whose first and second seasons were aired in November and December respectively, chronicles the lives of hostesses of a Japanese nightclub in Taipei in the 1980s.
A key character is murdered in the first season and the killer's identity was revealed in the third season.
Light The Night's leading actress Ruby Lin, who plays mamasan Rose and is also a producer of the series, wrote on social media on Friday: "Please be careful when you go online so as to avoid seeing the spoilers."
Actress Cheryl Yang, who plays nightclub owner Sue, wrote: "Please switch on the airplane mode of your phone."
Their co-star Yo Yang, who plays the detective Pan Wen-cheng, wrote: "Please watch my video if you are over 18".
This prompted Lin to ask: "Is it exciting?"
A secret between two characters played by actors Hsiu Chieh-kai and Wang Po-chieh was revealed in the third season. Hsiu posted on social media two suggestive photos with Wang, with the caption: "Handsome, do you want to hitch a ride?"
Actress Alyssa Chia, Hsiu's real-life wife, responded jokingly: "Well, I have to grant your wish since both of you are so eye-catching."
Viewers who have watched the series have praised the performances of Lin and Cheryl Yang, with some saying that they were possible Best Actress candidates at this year's Golden Bell Awards.
