Cute On-Screen Couples of 2014 so far...

Ruco Chan and Aimee Chan- Outbound Love, Ruse of Engagement

They were super cute in Outbound Love. They're chemistry is unbelievable. This is my favourite  I wonder if they will have any series after this as a pair once Aimee returns from her maternity leave.

Steven Ma and Tavia Yeung- Storm in a Cocoon

The page about them says all I think about this couple. Still don't like the ending, why can't it be happy ending?

This couple is super cute, and the chemistry between the two were always perfect!

Its so hard for this couple to have a happy ending, and I wonder when is the next time Steven will return and film another TVB drama with Tavia again.

 

Wong Cho Lam and Stephanie Ho- Glided Chopstick

 

These two makes Glided Chopstick an enjoyment to watch. They are super cute and hilarious.

 

Matt Yeung and Aimee Chan- Outbound Love

 

I don't know if I'm supposed to hate Nic or like him. One, he cheats on Law Sic Sic, two, he tells her that she is the only woman that he loved and three, suddenly he comes back and asks her for forgiveness.

 

Even when she did gives him a second chance, he realize that she loves someone else, and once again, he uses the tactic to break her heart so that she would move on and be with the person she truly loves.

 

Matt and Aimee's character short live romance in this series were bittersweet but I wouldn't mind seeing them playing as a couple again, because they, too were cute. But maybe this time, Matt wouldn't have to hurt her heart.

Who is the cutest on-screen couple of 2014 for you?

 





Be the one to make the difference!

Though I haven't watch any TVB drama lately, but I will always be inspired by these drama. TVB have change my point of view in society. They inspire me to be who I am today. And I am forever grateful for it.

The Last Breakthrough

*picture belong to TVB*

This drama not only inspire me to try to make a difference in this world but it has makes me sees the reality of the world.. It's about a group of doctors and nurses who volunteer their time in 'Life Force,' to help people in Kenya, Africa. It's an inspirational drama. Words cannot say how much this drama has inspire many people, perhaps it has inspire you to be a doctor or a nurse? Or perhaps it has inspire you to volunteer your time to help the local people? Remember, there are people out there that need our help, so we should help the needy too. Give something back to the society perhaps?

Heart Breathing- Raymond Lam

Written by Tang Chi Wai

I love the theme song of 'The Last Breakthrough.' Raymond has a soothing voice and he makes it sound so powerful. Listening to it makes me want to roll up my sleeves and help the needy. Your thoughts?

The Academy

Credit of the photo should go to TVB

Inspire to be a policeman? The Academy gives you a sneak peek of 27 weeks of hard training to be a policeman. Honestly, this has to be one of the better polices dramas. Besides the romance, the road to be a polices has been a long road but in the end it would be worth it, because at least after this, there are more people who can protect the society. Protect the community. 

The Other Truth

credit of the photo should go to TVB

Want to be a lawyer? Or wonder how the jury were selected? Or how the court system works? 

The Other Truth is different from most legal dramas that TVB has produce. It shows how the jury were selects, how they decides the verdict of the case, it shows the grey area in the court system. You might think that they are innocence but really they are guilty. And the legal system shows the justice and fairness in the adversary system. Unless it is the Inquisitorial system where the truth is the main objective. 

Do you want to be lawyer? But there are different types of lawyer too, a good lawyer or a bad lawyer. A bad lawyer is not technically an inexperience lawyer but the sort of lawyers that you sees in drama, where in order of winning a big cases, they would turn from wrong to right, they would make their clients from guilty to innocence and the parties on the right side would be seem as bad. Don't you agree? Is money really important than morality? 

On Call 36  

credit should of the poster should go to TVB

Maybe you're inspires to be a doctor after watching 'The Last Breakthrough' or simply because you just love KenTa. Being a doctors would means that you need to have a lot of patients, especially with all the years of studying at university, then being a trainee at the doctor, then being a specialist trainee, until you can actually be a specialist in the field. And that is a very long time. Not trying to make it sound impossible, but being a doctor is a rewarding career. Because doctors are saving people lives, and even if doctors cannot save all lives, at least they have tries their best. Working at the hospitals, doctors would be able to sees the happiness and sorrows everyday. Can you handle it? Remember, you can be the one that make a differences in saving a person, and not just the person itself, but their family too. 

A Great Way to Care 1/2 

credit of the posters should go to TVB

Maybe instead of being a doctor, why not be a psychiatrist instead and specialist in mentally ill criminals? Think about it, not only are you a doctor but you are also somewhat working with the police? Being able to help people recover from an illness should be a rewarding job. Would you not agree?

And these are the dramas that have inspires me, and I hope that this post or dramas have inspire you too. Perhaps, you are confuse with what career you want to do, maybe you might want a rewarding career, has these tick the boxes for you? And whatever career you are doing or studying or aspires to be, I truly wish you the very best in it. May you be happy, and perhaps be the one to make the the difference in the society. Remember, one can tip the scales. Choose wisely.

Storm In A Cocoon Review

Credit of the poster should goes to TVB.

This is the BEST drama of 2014 by far! Love the storyline, cast and the scenery!

This story start with Steven as the third child from the famous silk factory, he is a military doctor who escape the military force to return back home since leaving home for five years.

Steven's sister commit suicide but Steven believe that she is murder and he with Tavia, who is a silk worker both believe that she didn't commit suicide but is murder. They decide to solve the crime together.

As I am watching this drama, I'm thinking it must be Steven's sister lover, Stephen Wong or it could be the uncle, Joseph Lee or it could her brother Evergreen Mak because I'm thinking it has to be one of them because its TVB, its typical. This drama prove me wrong all the way from the start til the end. It is none of these people, in fact it is the youngest brother, Yeung Chiu Hoi who accidentally kill his sister. He regrets it a lot and Evergreen know that it was him but choose to help him by creating a scene that seem like she commit suicide.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any more complicated, Tavia's fiancée Raymond Cho return from two years, just when Tavia and Steven had feeling towards one another. My biggest fear is that this would be another replay of "Sweetness In The Salt" or "Cupide Stupid" where Tavia fall for the wrong guy and end up with him. Again, this drama prove me wrong, Raymond turns out to be a thief and he was killed by Steven as self defense to save Tavia.

Finally after all the ups and downs, Steven and Tavia got married. I'm so happy that I couldn't believe what I was watching. Did I mention that this couple is the couple that I really want them to have a happy ending? Just when I thought this couldn't get any better than this, Steven were taken away by the military for escaping the military and he was sentence to seven years in jail. My heart sank. Why TVB? Why do you have to do this to me? I thought.

Tavia were in charge of the factory while Evegreen turn evil because he thought that KK Cheung was actually his father not Steven's father. Evergreen plot revenge against his own family but later found out that he is being used by KK Cheung.

It turn out Tavia was KK Cheung's biological daughter. Steven lied to Tavia that she isn't the daughter to plot revenge against KK Cheung who killed his uncle, Joseph Lee, Mat Yeung, Steven's dad and other people.

I think the hardest episode to watch is  episode 29. Mat Yeung's character died because he know the truth. He overheard KK Cheung said that Evergreen is not his son and that he was using him. Maggie Sui died for Evergreen to be good again and that he would stop being evil. TWO  good characters died in one episodes. WHY TVB? WHY?
Natalie and Mat were happily in love but why did they have to kill him? Why?

Anyway, Tavia found out that Steven lie to her and left him. He tried to look for her but he couldn't find her anywhere. There is a flood from where Steven were living, and Tavia's brother told Steven that Tavia have return. Running in the flood while searching for Tavia, he finally found her. She forgive him.

Tavia were floating on the Silk Factory sign while Steven hold onto the sign to paddle it to the land, one of the tree trunk hit his head and he drown while there were flashback of him and Tavia  then he woke up and he was ok again. Another tree trunk hit his head  and he drifted away from Tavia.

FOUR YEARS LATER, there were no news of Steven. However the silk factory were running really well, and we know that Tavia had a son with Steven. While sailing on the river, she saw Steven, she and her son quickly run after Steven, shouting out his name.
Tavia run to him and hug him, but he didn't remember her. My heart sank again.
The son start to sing a song and Tavia sing along, it is Steven and Tavia's love song. He takes out his flute and play the melody to it. He turn to look at her. THE END.

Umm.. Is this a happy ending? Does this mean he remembers her? Does it? 

I really love this drama. Love Stevia!
By the way, love the sub-theme Thinking of You by Jinny Ng as it play in Steven and Tavia's scenes! 

Steven Ma

Steven is an amazing actor. He is also my childhood star. Currently watching 'Storm in Cocoon' and all I could think is will Tavia and Steven have a happy ending? And who is the murderer that kill Steven's sister? I don't know yet and please don't spoil to me.

It was so good to see Steven on-screen again.
Have you guys purchase Steven's Cherish album. I heard his preview on Youtube and it my favourite track is track 6. I haven't purchase one myself yet mainly because it is temporally out of stock.

If your a huge fan of Fala Chen and Steven Ma, You should listen to their duet. I can't stop listening to it.

Credit of the video should go to the Uploader and Steven himself.
I really like the melody to it and the way their voices harmonise together is nice. Listen to it once and you would definitely listen to it twice or more.

Leibster Award!

So I've been tag by Lynn from TVB Horizon and here are the answers to her questions:
1. Your favourite tvb theme song.  Leave a link if you can!
This one is a hard one. Currently it would have to be Storm of Cocoon theme. *Currently still watching this drama.
Love Steven's voice when he sings it. I'm so glad that his back in TVB.

Credit of the video should go to The Voice Entertainment Group Limited

 2. Create a character you'd like to see in a TVB series! (occupation, personality, who'd you want to play it etc)
I would like to create a character of a girl where it would be set in the  Qing dynasty that Glided Chopstick is in, where she is a concubine in the kingdom. She is a kind, thoughtful and smart person. Her goal is to escape from the kingdom because she fear for her life as she knows the secret of one of the princes. What is the secret? Which prince is this?
As for who to play the role, I would like Linda Chung to play this role because I don't think Linda have any role in this dynasty. If not, Linda then I would also like Tavia to play this role.
 3. What is your favourite post that you've written? Leave a link!
To be honest, I don't have a favourite posts that I've written. They are all my favourite.
 4. Your favourite drama from last year.
I don't remember. Probably Triumph in the Skies 2 since we have to wait for ten years for the drama.

-Ha Yu from Fathers and Sons
8. I know there would be lots, but name one retired TVB actress AND actor that you would like to see back onscreen again and WHY?
Melissa Ng because I miss her acting, she is so amazing in "The Master of Tai Chi."
For some reason I can't think of any retired actor.

Outbound Love Review

Picture from: tvb.com

This drama would have to be my favourite drama yet.

The storyline of the drama is good and the scenery is beautiful.

The story is about Aimee Chan's character dating Matt Yeung's character and they were happily dating for a year. Matt propose to Aimee at a very pretty place somewhere in Malaysia. She said yes.

As I was watching this scene, I'm thinking to myself Matt seem like an amazing guy, he have to do something terrible to hurt her so that she could meet Ruco.

Matt cheat on her with her best friend, Samantha Ko. Why? One mistakes cost Matt his love of his life.

In order to avoid Matt, she move to Malaysia and she met Ruco, a tour guide. At first she didn't like him because she thought he was bad person after all the ups and down she realize that he is actually a nice guy. She describe him as an onion because she can never know who he is. He is the son of a man that owe a coconut farm, a son to a woman in Hong Kong who is famous with her cooking and he is Elaine Yiu ex-boyfriend. Elaine is a singer that Aimee adore. Elaine is the one that have hurt Ruco. Ruco is a composer who compose and write the lyrics to Aimee favourite song perform from Elaine.

Aimee eventually grew fond of Ruco. The cute coconut drinks that they drink outside at the bench near Aimee's house in Hong Kong, the durian kiss, the purple hairpin and her bracelet. They were so cute together, but it make it more difficult when Ruco is actually best friend with Matt. And Matt would do anything to be with Aimee again. He help her solve all the problems in her home. He would wait for her.

In the end, Aimee give Matt a second chance. But she couldn't forget that fact that he have cheat on her with her best friend that she have put a GPS on his phone to know where he is, she even follow him to the hotel thinking that he is cheating on her with Samantha, but the truth is he is organizing a surprise birthday party with her, he even plan to propose to her.

Ruco love Aimee but he is willingly to give up on her for his best friend, Matt because he believe that Aimee still loves Matt. However, at some point her heart have belong to Ruco.

Eventually Matt realize that Aimee loves Ruco and he let her go, even if it makes her have to hate him.
Ruco and Aimee met at Malaysia by fate and they begin to date.

Like Ruco said, "I don't love you," and Aimee reply, "I don't love you either,"

I think this drama is beautiful with the beautiful scenery and the storyline is wonderful and I enjoy this series a lot.

I like this song and the melody to it.

What are your thoughts of the drama?

The Hippocratic Crush 2 eps 27-30 FINALE

Episodes 27 and 28 were the hardest to watch. Watching Eliza last moment as she prepare her very own party to farewell herself, watching Him having fun at a party with his friends. When everyone found out that Eliza were going to died, they all held a candle with a photo of themselves and give it to Eliza, I thought that scene were the most touching scene yet.

I found it really hard to watch Him beg Kenneth to save Eliza when clearly she is going to died either way. Him keep his promise by looking after Eliza's orchids. He learn the proper way to look after them and he is on his way to visit Eliza in hospital to show her the orchids. No one told him in advance that Eliza have already left. He eventually have the hints and cry his eyes out when he saw her lying there gone away from the world.

Him eventually learn that wherever he thought of Eliza, she will be there. He promise Eliza he will live to the fullest.


Mandy return and she accept Ben again. Ben propose to Mandy and she say yes.

Tavia found out that Kenneth writes her letters each day hidden in a box. Tavia also write letters each month so that if she ever leave he can always remember her.
Kenneth were in an accident and Tavia were brave enough to be in the operation saving Kenneth.
Kenneth woke up and they live happily ever after.

Louise and Koo Ming Kai live happily ever after in England.

Brian Tse found himself a girlfriend, King Lam is dating Crystal Li, Him is living to the fullest and Tse Cheuk Yin continue to be a successful doctor.

Lawrence and Tracy continue to love one another.

Derek and Paisley live happily ever after as well.


Here is the clip uses for Him and Eliza songs:
