As singer turned actress Selina (pictured with buzz cut post-incident) of S.H.E continues to recover from 3rd degree burns on over 54% of her body suffered while filming the drama "I Have a Date With Spring" in Shanghai last year, the director of the drama has moved on to another drama, "In the End, I Decided I Love You" (醉後決定愛上你), starring yet another singer turned actress, Rainie Yang.

However, many fans and those in the industry are unhappy with the director, whom many think should step out and offer a public apology to Selina for the incident.

A few reporters camped out on the set of the new drama, hoping to score an interview with the director, who was reported to be seen in good spirits on the set. However, as soon as he saw the reporters approach, his expression turned sour as he shoo'ed them away. Some of crew on the set have even made faces at the reporters.

Veteran actress Emi Lee recently posted on her Sina Weibo, saying, "Director Chen, if you can seemly forget about the incident while you have move on to your next project, shouldn't you at least offer Selina and her family an apology?" She was also quoted asking, "How can he live with his conscience?"

"In the End, I Decided I Love You", whose Chinese title is a pun of "Drunk on Love" is a sequel of sorts to the hit drama "Fated to Love You".

In the new drama, Rainie will for the first time sport a new image, along with a short, boyish haircut.
