Kenneth Ma: Ability

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

kenneth01kenneth02

Kenneth Ma has always gone the ability route. Compared to other siu sangs in the same generation, his pace is indeed slower. Acting for 13 years, finally the first male lead 'Yat Kin Tau' in "The Hippocratic Crush", the series receiving good reviews and drawing a large audience, and Kenneth's acting has also received praise. Is this a late spring? "Absolutely not. When filming 'Born Rich', Lo Ka (Gallen Lo) previously said that it takes ten years to come out with a siu sang. I don't think that my pace is slow; it's just that my road is longer because, in this industry, apart from ability, luck is also a major factor. For example, Wayne Lai. His acting has always been good. I already greatly admired him in the '90s, but had to encounter 'Chai Gau' before gaining great popularity".

When talking about [his] career, Kenneth went on and on, but when asked about [his] love life...reconciled with Nancy Wu? He immediately became awkward, saying that there was nothing to report: "Nancy and I are in the friendship stage...enjoying the current single life. Still make money above all else!"

Personal Note: Don't know why reporters are still saying that "Hippocratic" is the first series in which Ma Ming's the lead, as he was already leading in "Survivor's Law II" and "Man in Charge".

He he.... Love Ma Ming's nice, slender fingers! :P

"Scoop" Clip

TVBE Clip

Mui Siu Ching and husband Lau Ka Ho will be leaving TVB on April 23rd, going to now next month. TVB Chairman Norman Leung, leading a group of executives and artistes Linda Chung, Kate Tsui, Lee Heung Kam, Michelle Yim, etc., treated the two of them to a farewell dinner held in Central.

Mui Siu Ching expressed that TVB worked hard to have them stay. She said, "The happiest is that there were many executives trying to have us stay. Leaving but not easy to part, but will definitely not poach TVB's people". They expressed that, during their vacation, they will be travelling to Dubai with their family. Norman welcomes the two of them to return at any time. He said, "If something does not go accordingly outside, TVB's door will be open for them". Regarding losing talent, would there be a worry about the series quality going down? Norman said, "Would not. Now, there is an additional batch of scriptwriters. Will also invest effort in thinking about productions". Regarding "Prominent Family" having a lot of on-the-spot scripts, having Damian Lau to change the script himself to remedy it, Michelle said, "Sometimes fix it so that it is smoother, but my series 'The Great Eunuch' does not have a problem".

Only 22 people were invited to the farewell dinner. Linda frankly said that she felt very honoured: "They created many classic characters. There was 'Seung Joi Sam' and 'Miss Koo', but have to look at the company's arrangement for future collaborations". She revealed that she would later take a one-month vacation and return to Canada to rest.

Personal Note: He he.... Linda wearing high-heels made everybody look very short! :P

Glad to know that Linda was enjoying "The Hippocratic Crush" while she was on a break! :D

Ending Scenes in "The Hippocratic Crush": Yat Kin & Yue Jai


Yat Kin: "From this day forward, for richer or for poorer, in happiness or sorrow, in sickness and in health, I am willing to love you all my life, to protect you, and to never change for the rest of my life. Do you?".

Yue Jai: "Didn't I answer last time?"

Yat Kin: "You didn't say it last time. I want to hear you say those three words".

Yue Jai: "But shouldn't you say those three words to me?"

Yat Kin: "The three words 'I love you', I can say it to you many, many times, but the three words, 'Yes, I do', I want to at least hear you say it once".

Yue Jai: "Yes, I do".

Yue Jai: "The most important is to grasp the present".

Cohabiting with Tavia Yeung? Him Law: Very Unfounded

"The Hippocratic Crush" actors Him Law, Mandy Wong, and a group of behind-the-scenes staff members had a dinner gathering to watch the series' finale together. As the series is broadcasting after the chief executive election debate, the actors also hope that it helps push the ratings, and also expressed wanting to film a sequel.

Tavia Yeung Gives Credit to Those in Front of the Camera and Behind the Scenes

Male lead Kenneth Ma and female lead Tavia Yeung did not appear, but Tavia was also very nervous about the finale. The night before, she already saw that her Weibo had over 10,000 messages, supporting Yat Kin Tau and Yue Jai to have a happy ending, and she was very moved. She expressed, "A series having good results is thanks to the collaborative spirit of those in front of the camera and behind the scenes. 'On Call' has roused our 'love', which has been frequently forgotten. Because of love, we must cherish even more! Continue to work hard in the future". Her fans also hope that 'Hippocratic' quickly films a sequel.

Since the broadcast of "Hippocratic", the reaction has been good. When Him was asked whether he would show his muscles to celebrate the series' good ratings, he said, "My most muscular time has already passed. Have to wait until summer to get fit before seeing people". Is it because his rumoured girlfriend, Tavia, does not allow Him to show his figure? He immediately laughingly denied, and also clarified about him taking Tavia's eight characters to see whether their marital fate matched. He said, "I also do not know Tavia's eight characters. Treating the reports as helping promote the series. After reading it, just laughed. Also, I do not have marriage plans now. Focusing on work".

As for whether Him and Tavia are cohabiting in their Tseung Kwan O love nest, he also denied the reports: "The rumours are unfounded. I am currently at Tai Po. Very used to it [there]. Will not move. Although going to Tseung Kwan O for work is quite far and laborious, I really like living at Tai Po, so I do not have plans to move to Tseung Kwan O. Also, Tavia and I are good friends, so why would we be cohabiting?"

Personal Note: Enjoyed the series overall and satisfied with the ending! :D

Have wanted Ma Ming and Tavia to pair up for the longest time ever, but didn't think that they matched physically back then. Love them in here! They have become my favourite couple of this generation! :D

"Daddy Good Deeds" Full MV


"Never Care" - Edwin Siu

從未在意 《當旺爸爸》 主題曲 - 蕭正楠

作曲/監製: 鄧智偉
填詞: 鄭櫻綸
編曲: Johnny Yim

在年月中 心暖萬次被抱擁 心裡話能 在你笑容看得懂
漫長路中 多遠路你伴我衝 多晚大門 沒閉上仍會等我

從未在意 你在旁 從前未懂著緊未懂用心 縱我亦容下放任
誰在算 算未完 原來越懂付出越懂幸福 總不可取替是你

抬頭望他 轉眼現已越過他 心裡話能 在你眼神看得懂
在長夜中 牽掛著我沒放鬆 想我若 承受挫折誰會心痛

Personal Note: Quite like this lighthearted song, but still prefer the themes of "Family Man" and "Fathers and Sons".

Don't know why Edwin had to film an MV for this song, as he was barely shown, and he also had to wear a hat over his wig. :P

Muscular Nathan Ngai Afraid of Water

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

0102

TVB newcomer Nathan Ngai worked with Kenneth Ma, Tavia Yeung, and other good actors in ["The Hippocratic Crush"]...benefited a lot. In the series, Nathan played a disabled person, having to be in a wheelchair for the entire series, and died of an accident in the end. However, he said that it is already the series in which he had the most screen time since entering the industry.

In the series, Nathan had to kayak. Although he and Him Law are both muscular guys, he is actually very afraid of water: "I don't know how to swim. Luckily, Him was there; he used to be a lifeguard". Nathan expressed that, apart from acting, he also loves to sing and raise pets. When he was in school, he was also a sprinting expert and captain of the basketball team...repeatedly received medals.

Personal Note: Nathan is not only afraid of ghosts, dark places, and heights, but also water!

Wonder how old he is....

Yat Kin Proposes to Yue Jai


proposal

Yat Kin: "Marriage vows...if just read out according to convention, there's no meaning. Must act on it. When young, beautiful and healthy, so certainly love. However, when the other gradually ages, old and defeated, has more and more illnesses, and even watching the other die of old age...so, no longer love then? Since, in the future, will not abandon each other...now should be the same. If just because the other has an illness and not love, then it's not true love. No one knows one's life span. Even we, as doctors, cannot guarantee that we'll live to a hundred. Thus, there is no guarantee of growing old together in marriage vows, but must guarantee that, whether in sickness or in health, must be together".

Personal Note: The proposal scene was so touching...love Yat Kin and Yue Jai! :D
