By hailey December 12, 2021

Taiwanese drama Light the Night <華燈初上> has become a huge success on Netflix. Starring Ruby Lin (林心如) and Cheryl Yang (楊謹華), the drama focuses on the jealousy and friendships that occur at a popular nightclub in the red light district of Taipei during the 1980s. The newly released trailer is already drumming up buzz for season two, and creating anticipation over what Wallace Huo (霍建華) will do to seek revenge.

With an amazing ensemble cast, viewers are mostly looking forward to Ruby’s husband Wallace’s story arc in season two. Since getting married and becoming a father, Wallace has not been on screen for two years.

The trailer for the second season teased the confrontation between Ruby and Wallace’s characters. After he is released from jail, Ma Tien Hua (Wallace) seeks revenge on behalf of his elder sister Sue (Cheryl). At her funeral, he threatens Rose (Ruby), “I will use better and higher standards to plan your funeral one day!”

Given that Wallace and Ruby are a married couple in real life, many viewers are delighted to see their shared screen time and the tension between their characters. There may be a chance that Wallace gets upgraded from guest star to being an important character in the second season.
