Sung Chin-hsuan
BIOGRAPHY
Sung Chin-hsuan (宋沁諠) is a Taiwanese producer whose credits are all Taiwanese productions. The best known is Fragrance of the First Flower (第一次遇見花香的那刻), a girls’ love series carried by GagaOOLala and Netflix.
Sung is credited as producer on the series. The first season has six episodes and was released on 12 November 2021. A second season of twelve episodes followed on 18 February 2025. The production companies are Long Moment Films and GagaOOLala itself. The series is classed as girls’ love and high school crush, and it has a coming of age and time skip structure.
The crew around Sung on that series: Wang Yi-ling and Teng I-han direct, Chung Ai shoots, and Yang Pi-ying, Leong Siew-hong and Chen Ting-ning are credited as writers. Yu-Hao Su produces alongside Sung, and Dale Wu supervises. Kyle Tso-Chih Yeh is associate producer. The executive producers are Derjk Wu and Jay Lin, the founder of GagaOOLala. Enno Cheng performs the theme song.
The other producing credits are films. The Sunset is Beautiful, isn’t It (夕陽無限好，只是近黃昏。) is a twenty six minute film written and directed by Hsieh Li-ling, who also edited it, with Liao Ching-sung as executive producer. A Silenced Lament (假人的嘆息, 11 October 2025) is written, directed and edited by Chen Pei-ying, and its premise concerns a restorer and a mannequin who depend on each other for survival.
Fragrance of the First Flower lists GagaOOLala itself as a production company, and Jay Lin, the platform’s founder, as an executive producer.
The series is carried on GagaOOLala and on Netflix, so a production made with a streaming platform reached a second, much larger service.
Season one ran six episodes in 2021, and season two doubled to twelve in 2025.
In my view the most interesting part of this work is the mix of formats. A series in two seasons, a short film of twenty six minutes and a later film about a restorer and a mannequin sit together under one producing name.
What stayed with me is how many directors are involved. Wang Yi-ling and Teng I-han on the series, Hsieh Li-ling on the short and Chen Pei-ying on the film are four different creative voices across three projects, and a producer has to serve each of them differently. I would start with Fragrance of the First Flower, the credit with the widest crew and the one on Netflix.
