Kenneth Ma, Samantha Ko, Rosita Kwok, Eric Tang, Matthew Ho, Hera Chan, et al. attended a meeting in Shenzhen today for TVB's new series, "Mrs. Revenge". Kenneth and Samantha both denied allegations that "Mrs." plagiarized the Korean drama "Marry My Husband". Kenneth expressed, "I have watched that Korean drama. Our series talks about forseeable dreams; the premise is not the same. Perhaps viewers would find certain plot points slightly similar, but many series involve the scumbag theme. It depends on the viewer's perspective". Samantha pointed out that a single manga that gets adapted into a drama would have different versions; apart from the Korean drama, there was also a Japanese drama. She also humourously expressed, "In life, one is bound to encounter a few scumbags along the way".

This series has already released in Mainland and will only be airing on TVB Jade next month. Samantha expressed her delight at the response being ideal and that it has been a popular search in Mainland. She revealed that the biggest challenge of the role was the crying scenes, noting that a particular scene involving the discovery of her husband's infidelity required the most intense crying. "Felt as though [I] had lost half of my life after filming ended. Had to sit on the floor to finish crying and compose [myself] before [I] could shoot the subsequent scene where my husband in the series, Cheung Wing Hong, slaps me". She emphasized that she harboured no trauma from a past incident where a slap during the filming of a series had actually knocked her face out of alignment; however, her mother could not help but shed tears and felt heartbroken for her while watching this scene. Kenneth's character in the series was highly praised by Samantha as being perfect like a 'guardian angel', but Kenneth jokingly said that such a good character would only appear in fairy tales: "I'm not as perfect as this character. You can ask my wife--she would definitely say that I am not as good as the character".

Rumours have circulated that Ron Ng and Kelly Cheung have sparked a romance while working together on the series "This City Never Sleeps". Samantha pointed out that the two play a married couple in the series; in private, it was normal work-related communication, and everyone would also occasionally gather for meals. Samantha went on a trip to the US earlier and watched two World Cup matches in person, lamenting the lack of male company--being accompanied only be female friends. [She] had also hoped to be able to have a romantic encounter. Kenneth also wants to go watch the World Cup but lacks the time, so has to settle for watching it at home with his wife, Roxanne Tong. Earlier, Roxanne was wearing a loose-fitting dress, so it was speculated that it is inconvenient for her to fly because she is pregnant. He said, "My wife has always liked wearing loose-fitting dresses. If there is, would let everyone know. We are working on it, but leaving whether there is or not to fate".

Bowie Lam and Charmaine Sheh Reunite After Many Years, Recall Having to Cheat When Filming "War and Beauty"

TVBE Clip (071626)

Recently, Charmaine Sheh shot a commercial alongside Ching Ho Wai; TV king Bowie Lam also made a surprise appearance at the end--a historic reunion that stirred up nostalgic memories for TV fans! Regarding collaborating again to shoot a promotional video as a classic CP from "War and Beauty", Charmaine and Bowie both exclaimed that it was full of memories. Charmaine said, "Although we would occasionally gather for meals, have not worked together in a long time. Fortunately, our chemistry and sense of humour remain intact. When working, it was always full of laughter. The funniest thing is that, at one point, I thought that Bowie would really perform the splits; the outcome would be so hilarious that it would really be too difficult to hold back [my] laughter...ha ha! Actually, every time [I] see Bowie, it feels like stepping back onto the 'War' set; the feeling of working side-by-side is still fresh in [my] memory".

Bowie also thinks that the most difficult part of working with Charmaine this time was holding back laughter: "Because I had to say the lines in the tone of an ancient person and also had to act out 「男人心一字馬」, was worried about failing to keep from laughing the most beforehand. Fortunately, was able to hold it in...very satisfied with the outcome! The funniest thing is that people have never understood the meaning of 「男人心一字馬」. I also asked the lyricist, Chow Lai Mau, about it personally; it turns out that these lyrics are about a man cheating on his partner. Hope to be able sing this song again at a future show to repay the netizens for their years of support and discussion".

Talking about the unforgettable things about filming "War", Charmaine and Bowie unanimously chose their 'cheating tactics'. Charmaine said, "The most unforgettable part was definitely the thrill of 'flying scripts' because we received fresh scipts each day, much like a pop quiz. As soon as we got the scripts, we would scatter to memorize our lines individually. There were times when we still had not fully memorized the script by the time we had to get into position, so we had to resort to 'cheating tactics'! Bowie was super clever; he'd stick his lines onto my back, while I would stick my lines onto a mirror in front of him. These kinds of funny moments of 'sharing hardships together' are truly cherished memories for us". Bowie added, "Because we had to tackle so many scenes every day, and Charmaine and I often had lengthy dialogue. To keep up with the shooting schedule, resorting to cheating now and then was unavoidable...ha ha!"

Charmaine and Bowie, who have not worked together in a long time, are naturally eager to face off on screen again. Charmaine even came up with her own exciting plot lines, hoping it comes to fruition soon, saying, "The sparks within our 'War' team are still there, and since our acting skills have already matured significantly, there would surely be even more depth when collaborating again! If filming a modern version of a power struggle in the office or a time-travel version involving a clash of eras, believe that viewers would also find the concept compelling. However, the most important thing is having a complete script ready from the start this time, so we don't have to stick cheat sheets...ha ha!" Bowie expressed that only a good script and good roles would justify such a collaboration and do justice to the viewers who have waited so long: "Viewers certainly have high expectations for a sequel or the original cast. It would be unfair to them to produce something merely for the sake of making it. Don't want to let the viewers down, so have to be even more careful when choosing a script".

- The sitcom is confirmed to premiere in August.
- The sitcom is a light urban comedy about 'female awakening', 'generational sparks', and the 'attack of AI'. The plot is about Stephanie Che suddenly 'awakening' and flying from Hong Kong to Canada to move into the home of her single mother daughter, Jinny Ng, determined to recapture lost time and the feeling of first love.... It turns out that, back then, Stephanie had a major falling out with Jinny because she insisted on giving birth to her daughter, Desta Lee. Now, Stephanie suddenly and unexpectedly enters and disrupts Jinny's life, and teams up with her granddaughter, whom she gets along with, causing a series of upheavals in the once peaceful Tong family.... At the same time, single mother Jinny also faces a major crisis at work; how will she cope with both her career and family in crisis?
- To enhance its relatability, apart from 'family' and 'generational communication' as its main storylines, it is also incorporating the 'attack of AI', 'restarting life', and 'current events' as selling points to deliver joy and life philosophies while closely following social trends and online buzz, resonating with viewers and providing emotional outlets.
- Stephanie will play Tong Cho Ka Bing (唐曹嘉冰), a rebellious, carefree, and optimistic dream-chasing grandmother. She is Jinny's mother and Desta's maternal grandmother.

Afterward, she becomes a pillar of support for her daughter, becoming independent and strong, but also feels somewhat lost as her daughter grows up. She can handle the most difficult public relations (PR) crises in Hong Kong, yet she suffers a crushing defeat in the 'three-generation battlefield' of her own humble abode. She and Leo Kwan are a couple. She and Gary are a bickering pair. She
