Description:
A tenor, novelist and playwright all in one, after the war he even took up arms to join the resistance. At 36, Lu He-Ruo was at the height of his brilliance, yet met an untimely death. As a towering figure in Taiwanese literary history, Hakka TV recreated his life and adapted his works into a drama series, attempting to explore the legendary life of this genius. Born Lu Shi-Dui, Lu He-Ruo shot to fame at 21 (1935) with his first Japanese-language novel "Oxcart," becoming a rising star in literary circles. Show more At 25 he went to Tokyo to study vocal music and joined the Toho theater troupe. Returning home at 28, he actively participated in Zhang Wen-Huan's magazine "Taiwan Literature," worked as a reporter for the Xingnan Newspaper, and joined the Housheng Theater Society. These multiple roles shaped his observations and critiques of colonial reality in his works, and also laid the groundwork for his postwar activities: leading the Da'an Printing House, printing socialist publications, and editing the "Guangming Daily." In the end, Lu He-Ruo chose to join the Luku uprising, becoming an outlaw, a fugitive whose whereabouts were elusive, his true name and pen names creating confusion. "Taipei Singer" became the code name for his capture, and also the title of this drama. Besides portraying Lu He-Ruo's life, the most special aspect of "Taipei Singer" is that the adaptations of his novels are presented in the form of stage plays—a bold experiment in the history of Taiwanese drama series. Lu He-Ruo's friends and contemporaries, such as Zhang Wen-Huan, Wang Jing-Quan, Song Fei-Wo, Lin Bo-Qiu and others, enter the world of his fiction and play characters from his stories. Like a blazing star in the vast galaxy, Lu He-Ruo shines through the river of history: from pen to song, from playwriting to weaponry, across different political eras, he always gave his all in the fight for justice for the people.
