Emerald On The Roof (simplified Chinese: 屋顶上的绿宝石; traditional Chinese: 屋頂上的綠寶石; pinyin: Wū dǐng shàng de Lǜ bǎo shí) is a 2006 Chinese and Taiwanese romance television drama series starring Wallace Huo, Betty Sun Li, Yvonne Yao, and introducing George Hu. Filming began on September 20, 2005 in Sanya City, Hainan Island, China. Other filming locations includes Shanghai China, London England and Scotland. It began airing on Taiwan channel GTV from September 30, 2006 to December 1, 2006 with 30 episodes total.
This drama marks American born Taiwanese actor George Hu's acting debut and first ever drama series. He has since rose to fame playing the lead role Lan Shi-de in 2012 Taiwanese drama "Love, Now" and as An De Wang in 2013 Mainland China costume drama "Lan Ling Wang". His voice was dubbed for "Emerald On The Roof" as his Chinese pronunciations wasn't fluent back then.
On January 27. 2014 Japanese channel Asia Dramatic TV (ADTV) will be re-airing the entirety of "Emerald On The Roof" due to the current popularity of George Hu.
In this modern day retelling of Shakespeare's ROMEO AND JULIET, Zhou Nian Zhong (Wallace Huo) and Mo Jia Qi (Betty Sun) fall in love with each other against their respective families' wishes. After countless struggles, Mo Jia Qi is forced to leave with another man as Zhou Nian Zhong gives in to his step father's demand to an arranged marriage. Before she leaves, however, Mo Jia Qi gave Zhou Nian Zhong a green ruby necklace as a testament of their feelings for each other. Eventually, the necklace will reunite the feuding families once again, as Mo Jia Qi and Zhou Nian Zhong vow to be together, even in death. EMERALD ON THE ROOF is an emotional tale about true love against all odds.
