Night Market Life is a Taiwanese-language television drama that began airing on Formosa TV in Taiwan on 22 December 2009. This is also known as the first HD drama ever broadcast on Formosa TV.
It stars Chen Meifeng, Morning Chang, Peng Chia-chia, Jimmy Ni, Wang Shixian, Daisy Fong, Mike Lee and Chiang Tsu-ping among others.
Very little of the show is actually set in a night market. As the series' popularity grew, the story was expanded to span two generations of characters; the children of the first part are grown up in the second part, which began on 7 April 2010.
As of June 2011, the show airs in Taiwan every weeknight at prime time with episodes which have ranged in length from 135 to 150 minutes including commercial advertisements. The producers received funding from the Government Information Office to produce the series in high definition. With admiration and some criticism, the show concluded on 19 July 2011, when the brand-new television drama of Formosa TV, Father and Son, was released.
