The most entertaining TV platform, 8TV is back again with another interesting romantic comedy love story entitled Love or Bread all the way from Taiwan for our Taiwanese drama addicts out there.

Ms Lam Swee Kim, 8TV’s General Manager of Brand Management, Business Development, Marketing and Communication shares her view on this drama, “At 8TV, we only bring nothing but the best for our viewers. So we decided to air Love or Bread that started airing this early December. So don’t forget to mark your calendars and catch this love story,”
Frank (Joe Cheng), is a man who by appearance looks rich but in actual fact is poor with a huge amount of credit card debts. He has never achieved anything before in his life and has to practically beg his debtors to prolong his payoffs.
Zheng Shan Mei (Ariel Lin) on the other hand lives an ordinary life and has three jobs to support her family. She also sends money to her boyfriend in order to support his studies in America. Despite her parents’ disapproval, she quits her jobs and goes to America to find her boyfriend and get married.
Unfortunately, she finds her boyfriend cheating on her, and with no money left, she is forced to go back to Taiwan without notifying her family. There, she meets Frank, and unexpectedly, she ends up sharing the same jaded house with him. He is lazy and irresponsible while she is hard-working and kind- hearted.
They are two different individuals whose only similarity is to live for money. Frank does not like Shan Mei’s eagerness to make a living, but eventually, his feelings begins to change, but he can only keep his feelings to himself.
Until one day, Shan Mei found her prince, En Hao, who is a rich and kind man. Although she fancies En Hao, she is not happy and constantly thinks about Frank.
What happens next? Will Frank let Shan Mei know about his undying love for her? Who will Shan Mei choose in the end?
If you are dying to find out what happens next, be sure to catch Love or Bread every Saturday at 6.30pm only at 8TV. 8TV is also available at Astro’s Channel 708.
