2026-11-10

Threads has recently been flooded with clips from the 30-year-old Taiwanese drama I Will Always Love You, starring a youthful Lin Wei. Now 57, people say that when he was in his 20s, Lin looked like modern heartthrob Hsu Kuang-han. Speaking on his renewed fame, Lin told FTV it feels as though his acting career has been reignited.

When opening Threads recently, the site has been flooded with clips of veteran actor Lin Wei’s old dramas.

- Stop it, our classmates will see.
- Then we’ll charge them!

- We’re getting married and will honeymoon wherever you want. You have to do as I say, listen to me, and have a dozen babies.

Its steamy scenes and romantic dialogue have sparked a wave of nostalgia for the 1997 drama I Will Always Love You. Now 57, Lin Wei has found himself back in the spotlight, with people comparing his youthful looks to that of modern heartthrob Hsu Kuang-han.

Lin Wei
Actor
The producers and writers then were very ahead of their time. They probably could have predicted it would become popular again in 2026.

With his expressive eyes, handsome face, suave hairstyle, and charming smile, Lin in his 20s bears a striking resemblance to Hsu Kuang-han. People are calling for the two to make an appearance together.

Lin Wei
Actor
Of course! If he has a project, I could make a cameo. We look quite alike, especially from certain angles. That’s why I joked that we should check our family trees.

Lin said he recently received quite a few acting offers, but is focusing on his business ventures. He has invested millions in the AI and VR industries, and aims to take the business public in three years. Meanwhile, his daughter, Ashley Lin, is finding a place in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and his son is training to be a lawyer.

Lin Wei
Actor
She’s a triple threat in film, TV, and music. She’s best at music, and she writes her own songs about her feelings. My son is in Canada. He recently graduated and will intern as a lawyer.

Lin passed on his talents and good looks to his son and daughter, who are finding success on their own career paths.

Hostel guest requests refund after stranger takes her bed

A visitor to Kaohsiung was shocked when she found someone else sleeping on the bed she booked at a youth hostel after she got back from a concert. The hostel staff made the unexpected guest leave, as he had not paid for a bed, but asked the customer to change the sheets herself. She later complained and the hostel said it would give her a full refund.

A hostel guest pulled back the curtain on her bed and was shocked to find a stranger sleeping there.

Ms. Lin
Hostel guest
I saw that the curtain to my bed had been drawn and then noticed someone’s leg on the end of the bed.

Ms. Lin traveled to Kaohsiung for a concert and booked a stay at a youth hostel. But when she got back after the concert, there was a stranger in her bed. She said the hostel staff did not handle the situation well.

Ms. Lin
Hostel guest
He apologized to the staff and then left, and they just let him leave. They said they would give me a new bed sheet and pillowcase, but left the bed as it was when the guy left.

The hostel only changes its lock code once a week, so a guest from the night before was able to get back in. Although the staff made him leave, they asked Ms. Lin to change the sheets herself. Unhappy with the still-warm, messy bed, she requested a different one, but was told it was fully booked. Furious, she called the police.

Hostel staff
Anonymous
Guests have to make the bed themselves here, and we gave her new sheets right away. If she had an issue, she should have told me then, but she called the police. I think that according to regulations, I can’t give her a refund.

Voice of Yin Ma-chien
Kaohsiung consumer ombudsman
Handing the guest fresh sheets and asking them to change the bed themself is a shortcoming in service. Given that the guest had already checked in, this lack of service is grounds for a discount. If the hostel and guest cannot reach an agreement on the amount, we urge the guest to file a complaint with the city’s consumer service center as soon as possible.

Ms. Lin said she would gather evidence and continue to push for a refund. The hostel later said it was willing to give the money back, hoping to put the dispute to rest.
