The Hippocratic Crush 2 episodes 21-24

Apparently Kenneth and Tavia are a couple again. Kenneth have understand why Tavia want to have some space between the two of them is because he need to take care of himself first to love someone. To truly love someone he need to look after his health to be able to look after the person he loved.

Mandy and Benjamin broke up because of Grace Wong. He was always on Grace side and didn't believe in Mandy so she left him to the states with her mother, Mary Hon.

Kenneth and Tavia pretend that they were arguing about the wedding so that Benjamin could agree to help them organize the wedding. Kenneth and Tavia were already marry ages ago but Tavia's housekeeper didn't know about it so now they have to get marry again. This time they will have a traditional wedding.

Lawrence and Tracy have very similar love story. They both lost the person they love most, and they both love the same music.

Eliza and Him are dating.

Here is the piano piece in the series:
Credit of the video should go to : Erica's Channel

I really like this piece for some reason. I think the start of the piano piece leaves you this mysterious feel. It makes you wonder what will happen and it allow you to think and relax. I like the piano piece because it allow you to drift away from reality and daydream to another world. I don't know what the piece is call but if you do please comment the name below. I came across this video while watching Kenneth and Tavia's fan made video. The second half of the music allow you to be more positive, allow you to think of all the positives things. It leaves you a nice feeling. What do you think of the music?

Melon's thought 2013

Last year I made a page on this because I want to read back on what my journey have been.

I realize that I have been a lot more dedicated to this blog a lot last year by blogging most of the drama with episodes thoughts. However this year, I don't post episodes thoughts as much as I did last year.

This year I have post at least once every month whereas last year I would post around five a month. Its not because I'm not as dedicate into this blog anymore but maybe because TVB dramas no longer have that excitement anymore. The excitement of the storyline, the cast and pretty much everything. Last year there were dramas where I couldn't stop talking about such as Bottled Passion, The Hippocratic Crush, Three Kingdom RPG, Witness Insecurity and so on. This year the only dramas that I remember talking about a lot is A Great Way To Care 2.

Anyway, I drop by to wish everyone a very happy Christmas and a very happy new year. Have a safe break and do visit this blog more.

Again, thank you to my readers. You guys have been amazing! Don't forget to comment!

-Melon.

TVB 46th Anniversary Award Result

Best Actor: Dayo Wong from Bounty Lady. I haven't seen this drama yet so I can't say much but since he is an amazing actor, he deserve it. Though I thought this award would go to Chilam. Kenneth Ma has no series next year, so TV King for him would be a while later.

Best Actress- Kristal Tin from Brother's Keeper. I haven't really seen this drama either, but I'm glad that she got the award because I feel like she deserve it a lot. I thought Linda could get this award since she seem very confidant about getting it from her 'Rachel' role in Brother's Keeper, I guess not.

Best Drama: Triumph In The Skies 2. This is a grand production so of course it has to win. This is one of my favourite drama so I'm very happy that it win.

Best Supporting Actor: Benz Hui from Bounty Lady. I haven't this series but I know that Benz is a very talent man, so he deserve this award even though I was hoping that Edwin could win this one.

Best Supporting Actress- Elena Kong from Triumph in the Skies 2, yes finally she get an award for her recognition in her acting. I think she deserve this award.

 My Favourite Male Character- Chilam as Jayden Koo is a win win. I'm glad he got this award even if it mean Kenneth didn't get one.

My Favourite Female Character- Kristal Tin is her night. Her role in Brother's Keeper create a lot of news.

Most Improve Male Actor- Vincent Wong from Will Power. I have seen this drama and so far I haven't seen the part when he get 24 slaps. Yup, its 24 slaps. I always believe that Vincent is an amazing actor, I'm proud that he won this award.

Most Improve Actress- No doubt this award has to go to Eliza Sum. She has the most screen time in most of her series.

And there a few more awards given but I won't mention it here as I will only mention the one that is important.

Most Popular Actor in China- Kevin Cheng as he has play many roles such as Ip Man.

Most Popular Actor in China- Tavia Yeung. I have to admit I'm a little surprise that Myolie didn't get this award.

The Hippocratic Crush 2 eps 5 - 16

Episodes from 5- 10
Tavia eventually thought about it and use abortion. She didn't want to but she can't afford to make everyone around her worry about her sickness. Kenneth support her and said (somewhere along the lines) "No matter what happen as long as we have each other we can go through whatever obstacles ahead of us."

Gigi Wong, Kenneth's mother has some injuries and Tavia's sickness cause Kenneth to worried a lot and eventually develop anxiety. Tavia notice these thing and ask Benjamin to persuade him to see a psychologist. Kenneth accept his own treatment to get better. Kenneth always has thought about his brother, Nathan talking to him about the problem that he is facing.

Tracy Chu and Lawrence has a lot of screen time in these episodes, a lot to the point I'm wondering if this is about Kenneth and Tavia's story or is it their.

Tracy has her background story reveal and yes, Lawrence eventually found out and start to pay extra attention to her, which makes me wonder is he starting to grew a fondness to her already.
So Tracy has a son, it's not her but from her fiancé's previous wife. She care for the son like her own. Eliza Sum and Tracy are good friends.

Him Law is nice to Crystal Li and Eliza Sum. This cause some confusion as Crystal develop feeling for Him while Him is waiting for Candy.  Him has no idea until Eliza give him some clue that Crystal has feeling for him.

Derek Kwok is always lying to Paisley when he is visiting Kenneth.
Mandy continue to give stress to Crystal because of her expectation.

Episodes from 11- 16
Tavia eventually call it off. She ask that Kenneth and her should have a 'cool off' period. She wants this because Kenneth is worrying for her too much and she doesn't want Kenneth to focus on her but he should focus on his health more.
Kenneth try to patch things but it doesn't work because he still care for her sickness too much. He loved her too much and always try to persuade her that for her to change course to be a heart doctor to a pathologist is the wrong thing. He believe that she is choosing the wrong course because she love to be the doctor that focus on the heart. Anyway, Kenneth start to write her notes, and she reply back. It seem to be going out quite well until Kenneth start to worry about her again.

A patient has a similar sickness to Tavia could have the slim chance of survival said somewhere along the lines of "It doesn't matter if I died now or sooner because I have achieve what I want in this life, and that is dance. I won the battle and the thing that would me make me sad is that I have to leave my group, that is the only regret I have." This cause Tavia to reflect on herself.

Meanwhile, Kenneth would dream of his brother, Nathan talking to him about the problems that Kenneth is facing and try to help him out.

Mandy and Benjamin has a few scenes about them. Grace Wong made her appearance as Benjamin ex-girlfriend who loves to dance and she is living with Mary Hon, who is Mandy's mother. Mandy is a trustworthy and understand girlfriend as she doesn't mind about Benjamin and Grace's past. She choose to trust Benjamin. They are a very sweet couple.

Him reject Crystal Li. He start to get closer to Eliza and develop feelings for her. Eliza however doesn't seem to notice.

Brian Tse, Tse Cheuk Yin and Lam King Ching has their moment too. Teasing Him and Eliza. Though it would be a lot better if they have more scenes with Him because Him seen to have a lot of scenes with Eliza.

Tracy and Lawrence has a lot of scenes again.

Louise and Koo Ming Kai has some scenes too.

The Hippocratic Crush 2 eps 1-4


The wait is finally over.
This drama is the drama that everyone has been waiting for and I finally can get my hand on it.

Its a beautiful storyline with each episodes contain a life lesson.

The story continue with Tavia and Kenneth a married couple working in the hospital with all the original cast returning with a few brand new faces. Tavia's is pregnant. However, her sickness somehow return and she has to choose if she want to use abortion or keep it and risk her life. At first Kenneth convince her to use abortion because he couldn't risk loosing her, he said "we are still young, we can have another child soon, I can't risk loosing you," (somewhere along the lines) and Tavia reply, "Its a gift. We can't be cruel and use abortion. If we use abortion now, what if when I'm older and my sickness is worse, how can I have a chance to be pregnant again?" (somewhere along the lines).

Kenneth eventually agree for Tavia to have the child, as he learn through his patient that when they are sick and could possibly died, the first thing that comes to mind is their wife and the girl has taught him that she always think about her father. He even dream of his dead brother play by Nathan Ngai, where they were in a basket ball court and Nathan said, "I'm going to be an uncle.... the present create the future, don't regret anything," (somewhere along the lines), and Kenneth finally decide to allow her to have the child.

However, in episode 4, Ronald Law is a patient that his girlfriend use abortion to get rid of his child, and he is angry and clueless so he decide to end his life by jumping off the hospital building. Luckily, Mandy, Benjamin, Kenneth and Tavia save him.
Kenneth said to Ronald (somewhere along the lines) "It doesn't matter if she break up with you, it doesn't matter if she use abortion, what matter is your life. You life is far more important than the child. You're still young, you have a future. It doesn't matter about anything but to keep yourself safe. You need to live for your loves one, if you jump down and died how would your love one feel?"
Tavia  overheard what Kenneth said to Ronald and thought about if she should keep the child or not.
And the credit roll.

However in episodes 1 to 4, Lawrence Ng play as a pathologist. This drama show how pathologist can help in an operation  where during the operation a sample of the patient's brain were sent to the Department of Pathology to test the sample. It show how the sample is made from a small  part of the brain to a tissues sample on the plate for the microscope purpose.
Lawrence has a friend that owe a coffee store, and that friend is Koo Ming Kai. Tracy Chu is a mysterious woman who goes to the coffee store only to be drinking tea. She wants to meet this "Monica" woman because she believe that her fiancée is with this woman. She try to compare herself with the woman. She and Lawrence has some scene together already, and I find her acting is alright compare to the newbies doctors.

Candy Chang is studying in Australia. Him always buy her stuff to send it to her. He waits for her even though his friend, Brian Tse, Tse Cheuk Yin (the one that play Andy) and Lam King Ching convince him to move on. Him met social worker, Eliza Sum and the too get along really well.

Derek Kwok finally married Paisley Wu. Together they continue to be a loving couple.

Mandy Wong is a strict doctor, she always yelled at the newbies because they make silly mistakes. Benjamin continue to be a loving boyfriend.

I really think the screen writer did a good job for this drama. The first episodes has a lot of tears, because there were a patient and she died. The life lesson in this episodes is to think of all the happiness and live each day through happiness. In another episodes it is that the present create the future, don't make any regret that the future will regret. I think this series is beautiful as far as I'm watching it, and I'm not writing this because its Kenneth and Tavia's drama together as a couple, but as the first four episodes has show me. I can't wait for the next twenty six episodes.

What do you think of the first four episodes of The Hippocratic Crush 2? Did it meet your standard?

Tang Chi- Wai is the man!

So who is Tang Chi Wai you ask?
Well he is the man behind all of TVB amazing theme songs. He compose the song. He also have written Raymond Lam a number of songs for him. "The Final Blessing" is a recent song written by him. He has also write "Don't blame her," for Ron a few years ago.

Tang Chi Wai is a talented musician and I'm going to miss his music a lot because he left TVB for whom he have work for 12 years. In May 2012, he held a concert with Bosco, Ron, Raymond, Niki, Wayne and so on as his guest stars.

With him leaving TVB, who will write the songs for TVB dramas now? And will they have the same amazing theme songs or would it get really downhill.

I hope Tang Chi Wai the best in his future and please do continue to write amazing songs.

Here's a few clips of the song that he have compose:

Bottled Passion- perform by Teresa Cheung
 
On My Way- perform by Raymond Lam

 
Brother's Keeper- perform by Ruco Chan and Edwin Siu 
Will Power- perform by Alfred Hui
 
The list of songs that Tang Chi Wai have compose would go on and on, so if you really like the songs of TVB, think of the man that have composed these beautiful songs.
And this is what he looks like:
If you ever visit Hong Kong and see him, say thank you because he have compose beautiful songs that we would never forget.
