SHANGHAI, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 8 May 2025 - Confessions, a psychological suspense series written and directed by Wong Ching-Po and starring Ethan Juan, Gingle Wang, Alyssa Chia, Yi-Wen Chen, and Vivian Sung, officially wrapped filming on May 3.

Hosted by Bowie Tsang, the press conference gathered the full cast and creative team. The set, featuring tree root installations and a Mondrian-inspired carpet, was meticulously designed.

It delves deeper into psychological issues such as family trauma and moral conflict.

Ethan Juan shared that his character, Lin San, has a complex inner journey that mirrors many aspects of his own life. He described the experience as if he were stepping into Lin San's shoes, not only portraying the character's life but also undergoing a personal choice of his own throughout the process.
