Ma Chia-Ling (Macharin) / Taiwan Audition

Digest video from the reading play 'If I could meet her again that day in the seaside town' with Macharin and Momoka from Team 8:

What appears to be the full version of the 'Mellow Love' drama has been officially uploaded for free viewing:


if the video does not show watch the video here

Most of the dialogue seems to be in Japanese with Chinese hardsubs but Macharin's character speaks Chinese in the story narration parts.

 

I watched Macharin's drama "Mellow Love" (that was posted just above) and I found it very nice! Even though the story is short (it's 23 minutes) but it didn't feel too rushed or awkward, this actually has a pretty good production. it's a simple romance story, but very nice to watch, especially with the theme of surf, it feels very "summer". Macharin is too cute and she did really well! Sadly the video is not subbed (the preview actually had english subs). I could understand most of what happened though, it was quite simple, and I think everyone can enjoy without english subs. I wish more people give it a try because it has only around 1000 views and I hope it can get more attention for their hardwork ;w; (it's an official upload btw). So I really recommend this! Also, it actually has chinese subs yes, so anyone who knows chinese (or japanese of course) can watch and understand.

I think the only part that I didn't really understand is when Macharin went to the restaurant and the owner told her something that made her surprised. Not sure what happened there lol.

Spoiler

There's also the ending, I guess Macharin goes back to Taiwan (because she initially lived there and decided to go on a trip to Japan?) and before leaving, she met a last time with the boy, and they did a prayer for a wish, and at the end he sent her a text that I translated with the help of a translation site, and apparently the text is about him asking her what did she wish for, and saying that his wish was to see her again, then she gets happy and said that she's in love, or something like this? Seems like a happy ending, of course lol.

 

Somehow her agency, JPEG inc, is gone?
at least the website is not available anymore: https://jpeg-inc.com/
and her youtube channel just got emptied? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc7yVzUspydhv4zPd3PgIbQ

It's not a big company so maybe they went under?
I hope everything is fine for her.

it may have been this.
