Hong Kong actress Jessica Hsuan is once again playing a role that involves her getting kidnapped.<\/p>\n
In her latest drama, The Queen Of Castle, the 55-year-old star plays a renowned cardiac surgeon who, yes \u2013 gets taken.<\/p>\n
No surprise then that fans have jokingly crowned her the \u201cQueen of Hostage\u201d, as she\u2019s been tied up or held captive 27 times throughout her 30-year career.<\/p>\n
Referring to her current role, Hsuan laughed that it has become \u201ca special kind of experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s quite interesting! Every time I\u2019m tied up by a different person, it feels like a new and special experience,\u201d she said as reported by Sin Chew Daily.<\/p>\n
The series has been performing impressively, averaging 21 rating points in Hong Kong and amassing over 200 million views in mainland China, stated the article.<\/p>\n
Hsuan revealed that due to the show\u2019s success, she has been kept busy with promotional activities \u2013 even though she\u2019s due to undergo a minor surgery soon.<\/p>\n
Speaking about the intense scene where her character is kidnapped and forced to perform surgery on a patient inside a shipping container, she said: \u201cFilming inside the container wasn\u2019t easy \u2013 the set was cramped, hot and stuffy, with no air-conditioning.\u201d<\/p>\n
She added of another challenge: \u201cSince I play a surgeon, I also had to memorise a lot of medical jargon used by professionals.\u201d<\/p>\n
Guess filming a scene where her character is kidnapped is the least of Hsuan’s concern.\u00a0<\/p>\n
