Kenneth Ma and Samantha Ko filmed the movie "Queen of Mahjong" together. The two wish everyone to always wear a smile in the Year of the Snake: "Hope that our Lunar New Year movie will be a box office hit, everyone will show up to support Hong Kong movies more, and we and our family will be safe and in good health". They, who were both born in the Year of the Tiger, also said that this year will be prosperous.
Samantha hopes that her career and financial fortune get better and better, but she also welcomes luck in love, even 'handpicking' Kenneth to be her 'guide': "In terms of love, I am really letting nature take its course; however, if there is someone whom [I] can develop with, I will immediately bring [him] to Kenneth to help me take a look. Go to his house to have hot pot with Roxanne Tong. If able to communicate with Kenneth, I believe that this person would not be too bad!"
Expressing Love Through Takeout, Blinding Those Beside Them with Their Lovey-Doveyness
She also pointed out that Kenneth not only loves his wife but has also inherited his family's excellent genes. After hearing this, Kenneth shyly said, "It's like my mom. Has also never done anything after getting married and has relied on my dad to support the family". Samantha was envious and revealed Kenneth and his wife's loving tidbits, blinding everyone with their lovey-doveyness: "Roxanne would go to Shenzhen to visit the set. If she is not there, she would text, telling me to remind her husband to eat because [she] thinks that Kenneth has lost weight. Sometimes Kenneth says that he is not hungry; she would tell me to ignore it, and [when] ordering takeout, definitely have to order for her husband as well!" Kenneth added, "Usually, I don't have to think about what to eat because my wife would help me arrange it. Actually, I eat a lot; it's just that I immediately lose weight [if] there isn't enough sleep. My wife has ordered two clay pot rice dishes to my hotel room before; I really can eat it all!"
Talking about what he must do in the New Year, Kenneth said that, during the New Year, the Ma family would definitely have bamboo battles: "My mom says that playing mahjong can liven up the house. (You play?) Yes, but I lose more because my mom's mahjong skills are very incredible. She is lucky and skilled. (Has your mom played mahjong with your wife? A good player...a good character.) Have played before. Certainly found [her] okay".
Kenneth Ma Loves to Accompany His Wife to Watch "The Hippocratic Crush", Samantha Ko Considers Pursuing Guys: 'Have to Be More Proactive'
The Lunar New Year movie "Queen of Mahjong" starring Kenneth Ma and Samantha Ko is the first Hong Kong movie for the two as the leads. Both of them felt that their first Hong Kong movie as the leads was already a Lunar New Year movie...extremely happy. There is no box office pressure, and it has commemorative value. In the movie, Kenneth is a down-and-out scientist whose talent has always gone unrecognized. However, there is Samantha beside him, who thinks he is the best in the eyes of his lover. When asked whether Kenneth had the support of such fans before he became famous in real life, Samantha had already answered, "His wife (Roxanne Tong) is such!"
Acting Is the Most Important Thing When Playing Mahjong
Samantha plays a 'queen of mahjong' in the movie, but it turns out that the both of them know little about it and are not at the level of being mahjong experts. Samantha also learned many technical terms because of the shoot: "Also just learned about the 18 Luohan, winning with the last tile of the wall, and seven flowers with a table of flowers this time. However, when talking about shooting mahjong scenes, the crew had it the toughest because, every time a round of tiles was played, also had to spend over an hour to rearrange it, having to arrange the mahjong tiles. When getting to the next scene, also had to clearly figure out who is drawing which tile. It turns out that it is not simple".
For Samantha, the mahjong-playing scenes were very challenging, especially managing the expressions: "After picking up the tile, have to make expressions, but there's another expression in my heart; thus, the mahjong-playing scenes were extremely difficult to shoot". In reality, do actors have any advantages when playing mahjong? Kenneth: "Also don't need actors. A lot of people who are good at playing mahjong also don't have many expressions and then suddenly say that they won!" Samantha: "I am very bad at managing my expressions. Because I have to tidy up the tiles slowly, when I put three and three together, my opponents already know, 'Oh...can win!"
Husband and Wife Rewatching Old Series
In the movie, Kenneth is a scientist who specializes in inventing things that are not practical. Not that many people know how to appreciate them; only Samantha gives her support. When asked about the person who appreciates his talents in real life, Samantha immediately answered, "His wife is the one who appreciates his talents". Kenneth also sweetly elaborated, "She would watch some of my old series again, and even said that she already liked watching 'The Hippocratic Crush' before she entered the industry. The scene where my younger brother dies in the series, she watched it to the point that she cried under the covers...was very moved. Now, whenever there is time at home, would also accompany her to rewatch old series. Although I don't really want to watch it because I think that my acting was very bad, she says that it does not matter, and even finds it very cute.
Apart from "Hippocratic", Roxanne also caught up on "A Fistful of Stances" and "Survivor's Law II" recently. "I personally feel that my performance was not good in this series, but watching it with my wife, the feeling was quite interesting. I would also rewatch her series, 'Final Destiny', to reminisce it".
The movie is called 'pursuing guys'. Samantha admitted that she has never experienced it before, but seeing that she has not found someone, she is also thinking about whether she has to be more proactive. "I have also thought about whether I have to put it into practice once and pursue a guy...have to be more proactive. However, I am also not very proactive in the movie. Instead, filmed a series about me proposing to Kenneth". Used to think it is not too good for females to be too proactive, but Samantha feels that the times are different and the views are completely different. "Now, would talk about how females can defend their careers, how to take control of their own lives, having to take the initiative to pursue blissfulness, to no longer grin and bear it, and to be willing to be brave once for themselves".
In the New Year, there would always be questions when relatives meet. The question that Kenneth, who is already married, must answer is, of course, when [they] would be having a baby. "Also leaving it to fate. Can say that there is a plan or that there is no plan. Now, my wife is focused on the two cats. At this stage, whether there are children, also not particularly pursuing it. If the heavens gift one, would certainly gladly accept it". As for Samantha, of course, she would often get asked when she'll be dating and getting married. When asked about these questions, Samantha immediately responded domineeringly, "My dad and mom also don't ask. My relatives would only ask me if I have tickets to the premiere. Ha ha...."
