The TVB series "Mrs. Revenge" is currently airing and has received many good comments after its release. Kenneth Ma, who plays 「葉家謙」, has even been praised for being a good man both on and offscreen. He jokingly said that it may be because Samantha Ko's character in the series had too rough of an experience; the screenwriters, unable to bear it, added a warm guy for her, pointing out that this good man character only exists in fairytales, modestly saying that he himself does not have such good qualifications.

Kenneth and Roxanne Tong officially became husband and wife in 2023. Asked if his mindset or acting approach would have some sort of scruples or inhibitions when playing warm guys or husband roles now that he is married, he frankly said that he also merely follows the script. Of course, have to inform his wife [if] there were intimate scenes, though Roxanne also would not mind, as she is also a professional actor herself. However, Kenneth laughingly pointed out that, after becoming a husband, [he] realized that there is a discrepancy between the husbands in the series and reality: "Filming involves tropes, but in real life, [when] two people live together, truly facing each other for 24 hours a day!" He believes that real-life marriage definitely requires mutual understanding; if only one party makes compromises, this marriage definitely would not last. [He] also pointed out that everyone might assume that he is the only one making concessions for his wife, but there are actually times when Roxanne also makes compromises for him. Kenneth also revealed, "I'm really foolish when it comes to online stuff! For instance, I would find it a hassle to pay electricity bills or gas bills online...can't be bothered to deal with it. Plus, read about so many scams where it is so easy to get the entire account balance drained through online transactions! Actually, my wife is scared of hassles as much as I am, but can't do anything about it because I am not willing to handle it, so she ends up handling it". When asked about the areas where he has to accommodate his wife, he frankly said that he is a person who loves cars, specificially paying attention to the tidiness of the interior; however, his wife loves to eat and drink in the vehicle the most, which also really bothered him at first: "But now, I don't mind anymore. (Because [she is] already your wife?) She is the only person who is allowed to do that...ha ha!" He believes that women should ultimately be accommodated and cherished. Even when in a standoff where each side is holding his or her ground, he also ultimately ends up being the one to 'give way'.

In addition, it was mentioned that he had received positive comments after holding shows in Mainland with his good friends, Edwin Siu and Raymond Cho. When asked if shifting focus to the music scene, given that TVB has reduced the production of series in recent years, might be a good choice, Kenneth frankly said that he still loves acting the most, laughingly pointing out that commercial performances usually only require a few songs; however, the setlist is much longer when holding a show: "These are songs that I had heard of but had never sung before. Later, got dragged off by the two of them to practice singing. After hearing [me] for the first time, Edwin said, '[We're] in trouble'"! He expressed gratitude to his brothers for not giving up on him and for acting as his vocal coaches. Thanks to diligent practice, there has been improvement, and with the support of sponsors, even successfully took their show beyond Asia to the US; he was also pleasantly surprised by the unexpected good news. Asked if [they] would consider forming a boy band in the long run, he said, "No need. The three of us can continue holding concerts. It just so happens that there aren't many series being produced right now. These are opportunities to make money. Plus, many people in Mainland also grew up watching our series. More forgiving of my singing...already satisfied as long as it is not too bad". He pointed out that his wife, Roxanne, often teases him about his mediocre singing skills, laughingly saying that he also agrees, as it is only barely passable, revealing that [he] plans to find a coach to seriously learn how to sing.

Kenneth Ma Forced to Choose Female Partner in the Series, Uses Wife as a Shield

When Kenneth Ma, Samantha Ko, Cathy Wong, Rosita Kwok, Hera Chan, Kayan Yau, Matthew Ho, executive producer Chung Shu Kai, et al. attended a promotional event for the TVB series "Mrs. Revenge" today, Chung Shu Kai praised Rosita for becoming prettier; Rosita laughingly said that she put on the green tea cream and thanked the producer for giving this role. Chung Shu Kai also asked Kenneth which of the series' actresses he would choose; Kenneth laughingly said that he would choose his wife, Roxanne Tong, but Chung Shu Kai laughingly pointed out that he certainly had to choose Hera because she is rich. Hera immediately agreed that money is very important. As for Amber Chan, she was also praised by Chung Shu Kai for acting out her kabedong scene well, initially thinking that it was a natural performance, but it turned out that she had received direction from the director.

When interviewed, Samantha revisited the scene where her character slapped Cheung Wing Hong after receiving a marriage proposal, admitting that, while her expression conveyed a great sense of satifaction at the time, she was actually deeply apologetic during filming: "Slapped him several times to accommodate the camera angles. One was particularly heavy-handed, making a loud sound. Saw that Cheung Wing Hong's face also turned red afterward. Immediately apologized to him after the 'cut'". Kenneth expressed that, if having to film a slapping scene, he would much rather be the one getting slapped...dreads having to strike a female co-star the most. He laughingly said, "I have been slapped by quite a few colleagues in the past, but the most memorable was getting slapped hard by Natalie Tong when filming 'The Invisibles'...it was very painful!"

Asking Kenneth about dropping his wedding ring earlier, which he still has not replaced, "My wife is still picking out a style; she has a few options!" Samantha asked if he would upgrade to a larger diamond. Kenneth: "Luckily, it was the wedding one, not the proposing one. If it had been the proposing one, would really be in trouble!" The wedding one was not that expensive!" He even revealed that his wife was thrilled when she found out that the ring was lost because [she] could pick out a new style.

The new TVB series "The Ideal Lawyers", executive produced by Chung Shu Kai, wrapped up filming its final major scene in Hong Kong not long ago. That day, the temperature reached 37°C. TV king Gallen Lo joined TV queen Tavia Yeung, Alice Chan, Moon Lau, Kelly Cheung, Joyce Tang, Matthew Ho, et al. outside the High Court in Admiralty. Everyone was in autumn and winter attire under the sweltering heat and the 'Very Hot Weather Warning'; although they were drenched in sweat, it was a joyful atmosphone on set.

Regarding the series' completion, Tavia is happy and unwilling to part with it, particularly struck by the seamless chemistry she shared with Gallen despite collaborating again after many years. She said, "Our chemistry isn't the kind that requires numerous scenes to build up like with other actors. Naturally know what the other is thinking. There is no need to rehearse our performances...could do it in one take". She said that they were serious in the series, but it was full of laughter outside of the series, hoping to collaborate in a comedy next time: "He says that I am good at making gags. Actually, I'm not, but with him leading the way, it's no problem. He's the king of comedy...has a lot of humour. I want to learn how to film comedy from him". Mentioning the days spent filming outdoors in the heat, she admitted that it was grueling but was happy that she and Gallen gave the passersby a surprise in the bustling city: "We weren't even doing ordinary things. Had to film chase sequences and car crash scenes. The passersby were also very happy to see us".

Making the Most of a Trip with Her Children After Wrapping Up Filming

Tavia received a visit on the Shenzhen set from her husband, Him Lau, and their two children earlier. She noted that she happened to have no scheduled filming that day, so she was able to enjoy some family time. She also praised her husband for being a capable partner; apart from bringing the children to visit her on set, also helped them learn to swim and arranged a series of summer activities, which allowed her to film with a peace of mind. After wrapping up the shoot, she will immediately return to her family: "A slight regret is that I won't be able join everyone for the completion dinner after completing the filming of the series. Because the kids are starting school soon, I want to take them on a trip. Plus, my child is entering Primary One...will be busier with homework. Hope to make the most of this summer and have a lot of fun".

Gallen dyed his hair white. He, who has thick hair, expressed when interviewed, "My hair is real! When filming '[The Heir to the Throne]' back then, [Charmaine] Sheh even asked my hairstylist if my hair was real. Of course, it is! I like to try new things. I also really like this new look". He also said that he was very happy to work with the actors in the series, revealing that his character was 'very difficult to play': "Because the relationships are very complex and the force of impact was very strong. Many of the important scenes I filmed with Tavia were also very incredible. Everything about this series was great. The script and actors were also great, such as Alice, Joyce, Kelly, Matthew, and Moon. Everyone worked very hard, so filmed very happily. I feel very fortunate to have encountered such good actors when coming back this time".

As for Alice, she suffered from heatstroke during filming. She expressed with a hoarse voice, "Because it was too hot and too sunny, and the blazer was cinced tightly at the waise. Vision went grey before. Went to lie down for a bit to rest, but voice turned hoarse after the heatstroke". She said that her doctor husband just got off work, so he rushed over to the filming site. Asked if she would visit a clinic or hospital for a check-up, she laughingly said, "Have a doctor beside [me], so there's no need". She also revealed that, after two months of intensive filming, will be heading out for stage performances and recording variety programmes in September: "The earliest [I] can go on trip is the end of September because that is [our] wedding anniversary".

Moon Lau Grasping Every Minute and Everyone Second, Learning Acting from the King and Queen

As a junior, Moon was thrilled to collaborate with Gallen and Tavia for the first time, frankly saying that the collaboration was very enjoyable: "I was constantly asking questions and having fun with them. Cherished every minute and every second as an opportunity to learn from them". She praised Gallen as being very humourous and for being a senior who is hard to come by, while Tavia is extremely straightforward and willing to share: "I always pester her in acting and life. Sometimes when I am also not quite sure after filming a take, she would take the initiative to help me".

As for Joyce, who plays Gallen's wife in the series and has not filmed a drama in a long time, she expressed that she had no trouble adjusting: "Okay. It was quite fun. My character is controversial and unconventional, so it was very challenging".

Kelly Cheung Gets a Scare from Her Loss of Taste

Artiste Kelly spent over a month in Shenzhen filming "Ideal", which was an enjoyable process. Filming took place during the sweltering heat of summer, but she had to wear heavy winter outfits to match the storyline. Fortunately, the entire process was smooth without delays caused by the weather. However, she revealed that she briefly lost her sense of taste, thinking that she had contracted COVID-19. Fortunately, it was just the common cold...already quickly recovered after resting.

Talking about her character in the series, Kelly laughingly said that the lawyer scenes posed no difficulty for her: "Previously filmed 'Legal Mavericks [II]'...also had some courtroom experience". However, the character this time has great depth and even had to go head-to-head with other characters in the series, making it a great challenge and a new experience. She was happy to be able to work with many actors she had not collaborated with before, highly praising Tavia as having a frank and outgoing and approachable personality, knowing how to take care of people, and having a sense of humour. Mentioning Gallen, Kelly was full of gratitude: "He is my mentor...was very considerate. Perhaps knew that us juniors would be nervous. Took the initiative to chat with us on the first day. Toned down his commanding presence to make everyone film comfortably". Mentioning if her temporary stay in Shenzhen for the shoot would affect her taking care of her beloved cat, Kelly expressed that she would occasionally return to Hong Kong for a day or two to handle personal matters. Talking about her new cat, 「冬菇」, she laughingly said, "He is very mischievous. Kittens are always jumping around".

Kenneth Ma Explains the 'Level 10 Beauty Filter' Mystery, Kelly Fu Spent Two Full Days for the Fitting Process

Artistes Kenneth Ma and Kelly Fu attended a promotional event today for the TVB series "Mrs. Revenge". She revealed that this was only her first collaboration with Kenneth. Playing a big celebrity in the series, she had many pretty costumes. She laughingly said that the fitting process also took two full days, making her feel as though she had returned to her former career as a model.

Regarding netizens saying that Kenneth had a 'level 10 beauty filter' in the series, with excessive skin smoothing that looked unnatural, he said, "Because the series resembles a fairytale, and my character setup is also fairytale-like. Perhaps viewers are not used to it. I was not used to it at first either. Later thought that it was nothing special. Don't think that I became more handsome; for guys, there isn't much of a difference. (What was your wife Roxanne Tong's reaction?) She did not have much of a reaction. Perhaps she watches a lot of Korean and Mainland dramas. Mainland and Korean dramas are often very dreamy and would have filters". He emphasized that he did not request to add the filter: "I have no control over whether they are added or not. I could speak up but would not. I only found out after it got released; these are also decisions made by the producer". Kelly praised Kenneth's good condition after getting married. Kenneth jokingly attributed it having nourishing soups made by his wife. In addition, talking about female lead Samantha Ko's absence from the promotion due to filming a Mainland drama, Kenneth admitted that he does not know when she would be returning to promotions: "I don't want to stop her from earning money in Mainland, but also want her to rejoin the team soon. Because this is a female-led series, it is a bit awkward with her not being here".

Hosting the Miss Hong Kong Final for the First Time? Kenneth Ma Responds: Waiting for the Company's Announcement

In addition, talking about a report that Kenneth will be hosting this year's Miss Hong Kong final for the first time, alongside Edwin Siu and Raymond Cho, Kenneth frankly said that he does not know yet: "It has been rumoured, but I also actually don't know yet myself. (Do you want to give it a try?) I'm not particularly keen because I don't know how to be a host. Let's wait for the company to announce it first. I have also only heard about it! (If doing it, do you need your wife's approval?) No need; it's just work. Waiting for the company to announce everything!"

- This fantasy series uses exorcism as its theme, and is a story on growth that has romance and friendship.
- The exorcism team operates under the cover of a courier company, and the exorcism cases are based on the people and events relevant to Hong Kong society.
- The characters in the series become bewitched because they encountered unfair matters, which causes resentment, greed, and feelings of inferiority. Although the series features ghosts and spirits, the cases will not be too supernatural; the demons are one's inner demons. While there are visualized demons, the demon is about a person's choice to do bad things or not; thus, everyone will have moments where he or she decides whether to do good or bad. There is a story behind every case, mingling with human emotions.
- The exorcism team uses modern weaponry, such as flash grenades, and there is also a lot of hand-to-hand combat scenes, so there is a lot of action.
- Hera Chan will play Fok Bing Bing (霍冰冰), an overbearing exorcism courier with a cool appearance. Due to her supernatural abilities, she becomes the leader of the exorcism team. She has the most fight scenes.
- Chow Ka Lok will play Cheung Chit (張喆), a down-on-his-luck IT specialist who stumbles into the world of exorcism by chance. He and Hera are a pair; he assists her in her exorcism duties. He has some fight scenes, though far fewer than Hera does. He and Ricco Ng will take off their shirts an average of once per episode, showing off their muscles.
- Joey Thye will play Wu Siu Mei (胡小美).
- Ricco will play Chan Sei Hoi (陳四海), who appears to be the boss of a courier company, but exorcism is his true vocation. He, Hera, and Joey Thye originally perform exorcisms together; Ka Lok later joins the team by chance. He and Joey Thye are a couple; they have many fight scenes.
- Karl Ting will play a tragic doctor. He has a rather cyncial personality, and he may not necessarily spend much time in the hospital, so he does not have to memorize a lot of complex medical jargon. Many people around him die. He seeks the truth behind his bewitched girlfriend, Carmen Ngai. He and Carmen are originally a sweet couple, but it takes a tragic turn that involves a separation caused by death. He spends ten entire episodes crying over her. He is a major antagonist who challenges the nature of humanity, primarily using words to PUA and manipulate people. Most of the time, it is about people's inner demons and how to PUA, using specific rhetoric to sway someone into making the wrong decisions. In every moment, he is grappling with the choice of whether to be a bad person or a good one.
- Carmen will play a coma patient who remains in a coma for the first few epiodes in which she appears; thus, she does not need to perform action scenes. She is a pitiful victim, and despite her tragic experiences, she is fortunate to be loved and cared for by her good boyfriend, Karl, and her good elder brother, Ricco. She and Karl only have hand-holding scenes.
- Li Hoi Tung will play Ka Lok's fiancée; they have a kiss scene.
- Amy Fan will play a down-to-earth and gentle housewife. Her character appears throughout the entire series.
- Jazz Lam will play an employee at the courier company.

Personal Note: I guess Rosita Kwok has been replaced by Li Hoi Tung....
