It turns out the rumours that the ‘The Prince Who Turns Into A Frog’ leads did not get along when they filmed the 2005 drama were indeed true.
As the actor shared in a recent press conference for iQiyi variety show, he did not get along with Joe at all when they filming the drama together. Ming Dao revealed that he found Joe to be bad-tempered, while she thought that he was arrogant.
Ming Dao summed up their dislike for each other: “I thought she was bad-tempered, and she thought that I was cocky.” And so, the co-stars went on hating each other, until a chance interaction after filming allowed them to break the ice. As it turns out, Joe wanted to rewatch a scene that they’d just filmed, to review her performance. Ming Dao, who felt that Joe had acted well in that scene, made an off-hand remark reassuring Joe that she’d done well.From then on, the two of them began talking to each other, realising that they had quite a bit in common. This friendship has spanned almost 20 years.
Ming Dao also confirmed that he tries to meet up with Joe for a catch-up session at least once a year, and that they’re so close now that Joe will phone him in the middle of the night whenever she has anything troubling her.
