Featuring a star-studded cast, At the Moment features 10 urban love stories, set against the cityscape of Taiwan during the pandemic.

The Taiwanese urban romance series, At the Moment, will premiere exclusively and globally on Netflix later this year. The anthology series comprises ten episodes, each showcasing an unexpected love story set against the backdrop of the pandemic. At the Moment is set to be a must-watch romance event for the year-end season.

At the Moment marks actor Shiou Chieh-kais first foray as producer.

Executive producer Nick Tai leads the production team, including producers Chang Ya-ting and Shiou Chieh-kai, screenwriter Tu Cheng-che (Light the Night), and lead director Lien Yi-chi, alongside four other directors: Ray Wu, Kao Pin-chuan, Norris Wong, and Remii Huang. At the Moment will deliver 10 heartwarming episodes of love, each designed to stand on its own while forming a cohesive series interconnected by the production of a reality dating show.

Nick Tai shared, At the Moment is an original script that screenwriter Tu Cheng-che and I developed during the filming of Light the Night. Taiwan experienced months of isolation during the pandemic, which changed the dynamics between people but created different connections. We observed a surge in various genres of storytelling, but noticed the absence of urban romance stories that used to be prevalent. Therefore, we decided to develop a love story related to the pandemic. We hope to bring this story to the international stage to showcase the diversity of Taiwanese storytelling.

Ruby Lin, Alyssa Chia and Kelly Lin are among the star-studded cast of At the Moment.

At the Moment also features a star-studded cast with unexpected talent pairings. Popular Taiwanese host personality Dee Hsu returns to acting after a 10-year hiatus and partners with Wu Kang-ren for the first time, while A-list actresses Kelly Lin and Ruby Lin will share a beautiful story of love and friendship.

After 10 years, Dee Hsu returns to acting in At the Moment.

The full cast includes: Gingle Wang, Wu Kang-ren, Ruby Lin, Alyssa Chia, Dee Hsu, Austin Lin, Esther Liu, Huang Lu Tzu-yin (Lulu), Tseng Jing-hua, Vivian Sung, Puff Kuo, Kelly Lin, Derek Chang, Terrance Lau Chun-him, Shiou Chieh-kai, Berant Zhu, Nash Zhang, Nikki Hsieh, Johnny Yang, and JC Lin.

Screenwriter Tu Cheng-che also shared that At the Moment is an exploration of the many interpretations of love, which would resonate with viewers of different age groups. Shedding light on the creative intent of the series, Tu explained: "We decided to open the series with the first episode centered around a reality dating show, where real thoughts and feelings remain hidden from the camera. By opening the series with this episode, I hope that viewers will be able to identify their own authentic moments of love throughout the series .

At the Moment is an anthology series from Taiwan that explores the multiple facets of love during the pandemic, portraying 10 different stories about human connection and intersecting lives, woven together by the making of a reality dating show.
