TAIPEI (TVBS News) — Rising Korean actress Chae Soo-bin (채수빈) created a sensation among admirers gathered at the iconic Taipei 101 tower on Wednesday (March 26) during her appearance for a luxury brand promotion. The star, who has gained international recognition for her compelling performance in the hit drama "When the Phone Rings" (現在撥打的電話), shared her enthusiasm for experiencing Taiwan's renowned culinary scene. During the event, she specifically mentioned her desire to visit the globally acclaimed Din Tai Fung (鼎泰豐) restaurant, known for its meticulously crafted dumplings.
The 29-year-old actress captivated the audience in an elegant gray gown featuring a sophisticated waist cutout, drawing admiring gasps from assembled fans. During a brief interview, Chae revealed that her personal style typically leans toward comfortable casualwear, reserving such glamorous ensembles for professional engagements. She expressed particular delight at Taiwan's hospitable reception and pleasant climate, noting the stark contrast with the current cold temperatures in her homeland. "Taiwan has a lot of delicious food. I haven't visited many places yet, so I hope I can try many things before leaving," she remarked, emphasizing her eagerness to experience Din Tai Fung's celebrated culinary offerings.
The luxury brand's elaborate launch celebration featured veteran actress Angelica Lee (李心潔) officiating the ribbon-cutting ceremony, lending additional prestige to the occasion. The evening continued with an exclusive soirée attended by prominent figures from Taiwan's entertainment industry, including fashion trendsetter Melinda, spouse of acclaimed actor Tony Yang You-ning (楊祐寧). Industry observers noted how the meticulously orchestrated event not only generated substantial interest for the new retail location but also demonstrated Chae's growing influence in the Asian entertainment landscape and luxury market.
