Big Red Riding Hood (Chinese: 大紅帽與小野狼) is a 2013 Taiwanese idol romantic-comedy television series. Produced by Sanlih E-Television and Dreamland Productions, it stars Cheryl Yang as the female main lead and Yao Yuan Hao as the male lead. The series first aired on February 28, 2013 on TTV after Love Me or Leave Me series.
Wu Zhang Mei (Cheryl Yang) is a woman who grew up with a strong sense of justice. One day, her childhood friend and classmate An De Feng (Yao Yuan Hao) returns to their hometown after leaving suddenly when they were young. As An De Feng has come back with revenge in mind because of a misunderstanding, both meet up again to clear things up and patch their friendship.
The cast of Big Red Riding Hood includes the following:
In 2013, Yao Yuan Hao postponed his birthday on April 19, as both the shooting schedule and his upcoming marathon were scheduled during that week. For the first part of the week, Yao was asked to swim in a lake on a cold day, describing the activity as: "...really cold, colder than washing with cold water in winter" He also mentioned that he made use of his time running during film shootings as practice for his participation on a 21-kilometer marathon scheduled the day after his birthday.
Cheryl Yang was also soaked in cold water for a scene, wearing a very light Hawaiian dress. In the later scenes, she attempted climbing a wall herself, insisting she not have a stunt double to personally show bruises on her hands. Yang was also the one to propose that her face should be smeared with a lipstick for a particular scene. She was supposed to only have wine poured onto her for a scene wherein character Wu Zhang Mei acted as the mistress for the sake of An De Feng, but she suggested to the director that she would look more miserable if her face was painted with a lipstick. In addition, there was a scene wherein Cheryl Yang had to put food onto the dog's mouth for it to open its mouth to make it look like character Wu Zhang Mei was bitten by a vicious dog, because the dog was too friendly and calm originally.
During the supposed wedding day of characters Wu Zhang Mei and An De Feng, De Feng made use of bread and pastries that Zhang Mei liked for the proposal. Before it was shot, however, the team put more thought into interpreting the proposal so that it would be both romantic and creative enough. Yao Yuan Hao suggested to make use of a block of ice and put the ring inside it. Cheryl Yang added that it would be more romantic to be able to melt the ice in her mouth. In the end, the team decided to make a large heart-shaped pastries for the event.
