In addition, the accomplished Wallace Huo from “Light the Night” will make a special appearance in the series.
Filmagic Pictures Co.’s “Forget You Not” is a beautiful narrative journey that explores the fleeting essence of life, the weight of memories, and the relationships of friendship and family.

My aim is that viewers will find peace and resonance in this story as they face their own personal crossroads.”
The show follows Cheng Le-le (Hsieh Ying-xuan), a versatile lady who works as a stand-up comedian and a part-time convenience store cashier.
