For an actor it is necessary to leave the role and the fictional universe of the project behind in order to go into the real world. Independent of their methods of researching and preparing a character, many actors state they cherish the aforementioned distinction within their lives, especially when the role they are playing is emotionally and physically quite demanding. For actress Allison Lin, one of the stars of the Taiwanese TV series “Endless Love”, this concept may be quite important since the character she plays in the show deals with the thought of dying as she is suffering from terminal brain cancer. However, she and the rest of the cast have decided to overcome this border between fiction and reality, using their fame to support children and their parents in the fight against cancer, bringing some much-needed entertainment to them while also interviewing two “clown doctors” and showing their work.
