Each of F2, Yan Cheng Xu and Wu Jian Hao, has an idol drama to compete against each other. Yesterday was the last day to file application for the Golden Bell Awards. Each of them will represent GTV and Sanli seperately and they will continue the war at the Golden Bell battlefield.
Due to F4's handsome boy image, there are limitations on their acting. Not until ZZ in Black And White, Wu Jian Hao in Autumn Concerto, and Yan Cheng Xu in Down With Love, finally there are breakthroughs. Not just ZZ was nominated in the Golden Bell's Best Actor Category last year, this year, Wu Jian Hao and Yan Cheng Xu will compete for the Golden Bell's Best Actor Award.
Among the four, although Zhu Xiao Tian also played in Momo Love, he made only guest appearances, and this made him the last in popularity.
Without playing in idol dramas in years, Wu Jian Hao's performance in Autumn Concerto was eye catching, but because he "treasures his feathers", after Autumn Concerto, he has rejected at least 30 drama projects. He said, "Don't want to film anything in the near future. Will focus on my singing career." He is cofident in his performance, and he promised if he is nominated, he will come back to TW for attending the Golden Bell Award Ceremony. According to source, Sanli also filed the applications for Best Actor Award for Wu Nian Zhen and Wen Sheng Hao in The Happy Time Of That Year. The great competition can really be imagined.
Both Yan Cheng Xu and Wu Jian Hao played a lawyer in idol dramas, and Yan's touching performance is considered to be the most outstanding in recent years. The chance of him getting nominated is great. After he finished promoting his photobook in Japan, Ella and he will attend Down With Love Premiere Press Conference by HK TVB in HK on July 24.

kkla: It's obvious that this article was released by FL that the focus' on Vanness, but even the reporter can't deny the fact that Jerry's performance in DWL was outstanding. From the article, we know that Jerry was filed the application by GTV. Also agree with some sisters that due to the big mess last year, this year, the judges may focus on the veteran actors.

Jerry Yan and Vanness Wu, members of the now-defunct F4, went head-to-head earlier this year in their own respective idol dramas.
Now, the two are headed for another faceoff; this time, for the coveted Best Actor Award.
Having received positive reviews for both dramas, GTV have submitted both actors' names to the organizing committee for the Best Actor Award in the upcoming Golden Bell Awards, which is the Taiwanese equivalent of the Emmy Awards.
Due to their pretty-boy looks, members of F4 have been terribly limited in the roles they could take on. It was only recently that the boys started showing promise, with Vic Zhou receiving a Best Actor Award nomination for Black & White last year while Jerry and Vanness proved their acting chops in Down With Love and Autumn's Concerto.
Jerry's turn in Down With Love received positive reviews, with critics saying that that was his best performance in recent years.
Vanness' Autumn's Concerto garnered record-breaking viewership as the second-most viewed idol drama in the history of idol dramas, making him a hot favourite for the award.
With other veteran actors like Wu Nian Zhen and James Wen also vying for the award, Jerry and Vanness's run for the award will not be an easy one.
