The proposal

In April 2025, what started as a reluctant visit to a tourist hotspot became unforgettable. On the 101F of Taipei 101, Johnny dropped to one knee — with a hidden photographer ready to catch it all.

Jade was genuinely surprised. Not only had Johnny taken charge of planning their travel itinerary for the first time, but he also proposed with the ring upside down.

Johnny had one more surprise waiting — a photoshoot at 赤峰街 (Chifeng St) after the proposal.

The final touch? A lunch reservation at NOBUO gave Johnny the perfect excuse to get Jade dressed up for her surprise moment.
