BEIJING – Taiwanese actor Patrick Shih’s agency has rebutted claims that he kissed a Chinese singer on a reality show of his own accord, saying it was all according to the script. Shih, who is starring in Chinese acting reality show Hit It Off, is best known for the...
The actress’ fans alleged on social media that Shih was required to kiss only her face, and not her lips. They accused him of workplace harassment and urged him to apologise to Zhang.“During recording, all the staff and actors created the content professionally and completed the shooting while respecting the script,” it wrote.
On Monday night, Giant Goal Entertainment, Shih’s agency in China, said the actor – who came to prominence in the second season of web series HIStory – had acted professionally and followed the script. It posted parts of the script showing that Shih was required to act on impulse and kiss the actress on the lips, with her looking stunned. It also shared the graphics used to guide the actors for the scene.
The agency urged netizens to remove the false allegations and said it would take legal action if needed.
