It was the kiss no one saw coming. When Alice Ko (Ko Chia-yen) and Cheryl Yang (Yang Ching-hua) took the stage at the 2025 Golden Bell Awards to present the “Best Director of the Year” award, the audience expected glamour—not one of the most talked-about moments in Taiwanese television history.
After announcing the winner, the two actresses leaned in and shared a kiss that instantly lit up social media. Within minutes, clips of the moment were trending across platforms, with fans flooding the comments with shock, admiration, and plenty of heart emojis.
For years, Taiwanese entertainment media painted Alice and Cheryl as “friendly rivals,” often pitting them against each other during award season since both are frequent Best Actress nominees. But the actresses have always dismissed the rumors, repeatedly expressing mutual respect and admiration for each other’s work.
And if there was ever any lingering speculation of tension between them, that kiss put it to rest in the sweetest, boldest way possible.
