With the rise in popularity of idol dramas, the Taipei City Government has been issuing the Taipei Star-Chasing Travel Guide since last year to great acclaim. The guide was updated today (the 24th) to include filming locations from two new idol dramas, "In Time with You" and "Romantic Delicacies Dream," and is now available free of charge at 12 tourist information centers across Taipei.

The updated guide introduces two popular idol dramas currently trending online — "In Time with You" and "Romantic Delicacies Dream." These dramas have resonated with audiences due to their clear themes and modern urban love stories. Filming locations include Taipei Confucius Temple, Beitou Hot Springs, Dadaocheng, and Longcheng Market. In "In Time with You," the lead actress, Ariel Lin, even performs the Eight-Row Dance in the show, promoting the beauty of traditional Chinese culture.

In addition, the guide also features filming spots from other popular dramas such as "Killer & I" and "Mary Stayed Out All Night," along with special sections like “Star Restaurants” and “Star-Opened Shops.” Fans and interested visitors can use this guide to trace the steps of their favorite idol dramas or visit restaurants opened by celebrities.
