Explore the Realities of Married Life in Romantic Comedy Series 'I am Married... But!', Launching February 14

Produced by Deal Entertainment Inc., Netflix is set to celebrate Valentine's Day next year with the launch of romantic comedy series I am Married... But!. Written, directed and edited by Li Nien-hsiu and produced by Vita Huang, this 12-episode series features an ensemble cast including Alice Ko, Jasper Liu, Samantha Ko, Tseng Jing-hua, Pipi Yao, Sie Yi-lin and more, and a special appearance by Fu Meng-po. The series marks the first collaboration between Alice Ko and Jasper Liu as an on-screen couple, with Samantha Ko playing Jasper Liu's mother.

In the teaser trailer, Alice Ko, who plays the fiery and disillusioned wife Lin I-ling, shares her thought-provoking take on the realities of married life - when the fairytale bliss of dating and weddings fades. On playing the role, Ko says, "I-ling appears sharp-tongued and dominant in the relationship, but she's really soft-hearted on the inside - she's just more honest about life's ups and downs. Jasper's character may seem pitiful, and I-ling loves and resents him at the same time."

Commenting on her first on-screen pairing with Liu, Alice reveals: "I've always thought of him as a cheerful and handsome boy-next-door, but that image is completely gone in this series. His character is lazy, annoying and helpless - audiences can look forward to a different side of Jasper in the series."

Returning to Taiwanese drama after a five-year hiatus, Jasper Liu exclaims, "It's been a long wait!" Liu sheds his usual suave image to play a clumsy and obedient mummy's boy, Zeng Xue-you. "Initially, I couldn't fathom how someone like this could exist. But after several discussions with the director and doing my own research, I began to understand Zeng's desire for harmony at home."

On co-starring with Alice Ko, he adds, "We got along so well from the start, and by the end, I felt even more comfortable about our on-screen relationship. I was reluctant to finish filming!" Liu quips that he wished he could play the wife's role but joked that his gender made it impossible, praising the story for being both funny and touching.

Writer-director Li also revealed that the inspiration for the series came from dating apps. "I noticed that many married people are on dating apps, and I couldn't help but wonder what they're searching for," she shares. Producer Vita Huang adds, "When people spend a long time together, they accumulate things they dislike about each other. It gets to a point where you forget why you chose to be with that person in the first place. You find yourself angry more often than in love, and then you wonder, 'Should we keep going? Would it be better to start over?' We want this show to offer a way for the audience to vent their emotions and encourage reflection." She emphasized that the goal was to create a feel-good series that viewers could laugh at and enjoy with a light heart.

Romantic comedy series I am Married... But! explores the realities of married life. I-ling (Alice Ko) has lived with her in-laws for three years and contemplates divorce every seven days. She wants to move out but is stuck because her husband, Zeng Xue-you (Jasper Liu), is a mummy's boy. Despite her frustrations, she always finds a hint of charm in him at crucial moments, trapping her in a cycle of wanting to leave but not being able to. Things take a turn when she meets a soulmate on a dating app, her body suddenly wants a baby, placing her in a tug-of-war between emotional infidelity and family life. The series will premiere globally on Netflix on February 14, 2025.
