Ali Lee had been arranged to play a difficult-to-handle character in the supernatural series "Unchained Medley", which starts filming next month, acting as a ghost who has a love between a human and a ghost with Owen Cheung.
Just as the outside world was looking forward to Ali acting in a new work, it is known that she, who is busy recording the talk show "Mindfulness Sleep", after some fuss and struggles, has pulled out of the series in the end on the grounds of health reasons. Because her ghost character had been set to be glamourous and outstanding in acting, faced with her sudden resignation, this series' producer, Wong Wai Yan, and the series team were in a chaotic situation. Fortunately, after several days of discussions with TVB's upper management, the first female lead candidate has finally been finalized; it has been decided that Katy Kung will be taking over at this time of crisis. In fact, Katy and Wong Wai Yan have worked closely together in the past. Her leading series "Brutally Young 2.0" was also produced by Wong Wai Yan, so it can be said that [she] is a favourite. Now, she has been called on by him to act in "Unchained", so [she] naturally agreed without a word, even though [she] has to film an ancient New Year series at the same time next month. Will definitely get to film but will not get time to sleep then, but she still has no regrets because [she] has not had a work that has been talked about since "Death by Zero" and "Hong Kong Love Stories" from two years ago, so [she] also wants to take this opportunity to level up and create a career peak.
Health Is Important
on.cc contacted Ali [today] about rejecting the series for health reasons. She expressed, "I will try my best to maintain a balance between work and health". Katy, who is said to be the second choice to play the ghost, frankly said that she was not too sure: "I haven't paid attention to it. Have been focused on filming a Handover [series], so looking at the company's arrangement. Will be doing [my] best". However, Wong Wai Yan is happy that Katy is able to take part, and even supported Ali for not being able to film due to her health: "Heard that Ali's health is not too good. Also scared that it would be tough for her...would not be able to handle it and collapse. Although [I] do really want to work with her, believe that there will always be a chance".
In addition to Katy's ghost character, it is known that Tiffany Lau is also taking part, but she is not playing a pretty ghost; rather, [she] is playing a mortal with a frank and open personality. Apart from having to be a body double and a mover, [she] also has to sing Cantonese opera, and has already been the first to do a costume fitting the other day. She was mysterious during the interview: "Also have to prepare for the details of the role. For the time being, only know that the key point is getting rid of the English accent. I have to work hard to improve and do more homework".
