Getting To Know The Characters in the Upcoming Taiwanese BL ‘Unknown’

In preparation for its premiere this month, let’s delve into and get to know more about the characters in ‘Unknown: The Series’.

‘Unknown’ is an adaptation based on Priest’s novel “Da Ge,” produced by Result Entertainment, known for ‘No. 1 For You’, ‘Fighting Mr. 2nd’, and ‘My Tooth Your Love’. The drama follows Wei Qian, who lost his parents at a young age and has shouldered the family’s responsibilities since then, including raising his younger sibling, Wei Lili. However, things complicated when he adopted Xiaoyuan, who became his sworn brother and seems to have developed a fondness for him over the years.

Without further ado, let’s get to know the characters now! Note: This article will continue to be updated until all the characters have been introduced. So make sure to tune in for further updates!

  • Chris Chiu as Wei Qian, a H.O.T game company founder and general manager.

Although Wei Qian seems cold and distant, he is actually very considerate of his siblings. Despite being young, he takes on the responsibility of guarding the entire family. However, he also longs for love and warmth.

 

  • Kurt Huang as Wei Zhiyuan, an orphan and a game designer.

Yuan was always bullied in the orphanage. Fortunately, he met Wei Qian, a warm-hearted man who gave him a hand. A bun, a boxed lunch, a coat… Yuan decided to become his family and take care of this brother for the rest of his life.

 

  • Tammy Lin as Xiaobao

Xiaobao is innocent and lovely, and she desires love and care from her eldest brother. She thought Yuan’s presence would distract her eldest brother’s attention from her at first, but she actually got more love from them! She respects her eldest brother most and trusts her second brother most. However, the one who cares for her most is Sanpang.

 

  • Kim Jae Hoon as Sanpang

Sanpang (Three Fatty) is Wei Qian’s best friend. He got this nickname because he was three years older than Wei Qian and had been fat since childhood. He plays a crucial role in guiding Wei Qian back on track, serving as a strong supporter and important connection for the Wei family. 

 

OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS: Wei Qian (Chris Chiu) has been the breadwinner of his family since he lost his parents at a young age. Besides providing for his biological little sister, Wei Lili (Tammy Lin), he has also adopted Wei Zhiyuan (Kurt Huang) as his little brother. Wei Qian puts his life at risk and works illegally to support his siblings. Luckily, his childhood buddy, Sanpang (Kimkim), gets him back on the right path. As life gradually falls into place, Yuan admits that he likes Wei Qian and forcibly kisses him. Overwhelmed with anger, Wei Qian sends Yuan abroad. Yet, Wei Qian feels as if something is missing. Both of them, who are not related by blood, are no more than brothers? Or will they cross that forbidden line and end up becoming lovers?

‘Unknown: The Series’ premieres February 24 and will air every Saturday at 8 PM GMT+8 on YOUKU, and was announced by officials through IG Story that it will also be available to steam in Taiwan through their YouTube’s channel.
