In The Eye of The Beholder

秋香怒点唐伯虎

In search of the last model for his painting "Nine Pretty Women", acclaimed scholar TONG PAK FU (Moses Chan) goes on a trip to Hangzhou with his ardent disciple WAT KEI (Lee Sze Chit). While there, he meets a pretty young maid from WAH's Residence, CHAU HEUNG (Myolie Wu). FU is mesmerized by HEUNG's beauty and martial agility and falls in love with her right away. In order to approach the girl, he disguises as a servant and assumes the pseudonym WAH ON, seeking to win her affections with his talent and ingenuity. But contrary to his wishes, HEUNG is unmoved and even harbours an intense dislike for him after a series of misunderstandings. Master of the family WAH HUNG SHAN (Ha Yu) knew from the very beginning that FU is not a common man. By the time his true identity is revealed, the scholar has already developed a close bond with the whole of the family, except HEUNG.

In the meantime, Prince LING (Tsang Wai Kuen), who has been attempting to rebel against Emperor CHING TAK (Lai Lok Yi), has managed to involve FU in his conspiracy by stratagem, thus getting the man and the WAHs into big trouble. LING's daughter CHU TING YUK (Fala Chen) is in love with FU. Desperate to save her dream man, she forces LING to release FU by threatening to kill herself. YUK's consuming passion for FU seems to have caused a ripple of unease in HEUNG, who is starting to feel a little twinge of jealousy inside.

My Better Half

老公万岁

Pharmaceutical company employee CHING SUM (Miu Kiu Wai) has an overbearing wife, KO LAI SUM (Cheung Ho Yee, Maggie). In order not to fight head-on with her, he has been playing ostrich in their seven years of marriage. LAI SUM, however, has never stopped watching his move, as she always believes he is fooling around behind her back. SUM's younger brother, CHING YEE (Tse Tin Wah), laughs at SUM a lot, but he also feels sorry for his plight, and gives him practical advices whenever he can. One day, SUM is caught red-handed in Shenzhen by LAI SUM, who proposes to divorce him! YEE always claims he has never lost in the game of love, until he meets MIU LING CHI (Theresa Lee), a newly recruited management staff of the company. YEE loses bitterly this time, and almost loses his job, too.

Why is it that relationship can be earth-shattering but marriage only revolves around trifles? Miu Kiu Wai plays a henpecked man for the first time ever, and Maggie acts as his bruiser wife in her powerful comeback. So make sure you don't miss this explosively funny romantic comedy which exposes the very truth about relationships!

CUPID STUPID

恋爱星球人

How would one's horoscope be interpreted and affect one's love life? A simple note that reads "Getting to meet the most important person in your life" is strong enough to draw fishmonger CHI YAT PO (Steven Ma), toy shop assistant KAN NGO LAM (Tavia Yeung) and toy designer KOON SING HO (Tse Tin Wah) into a torrid love triangle. When making their way out of the maze, the three of them begin to hesitate. Can one's love life really be predicted?

Unlike his childhood friend LAM, PO does not believe in horoscopes. But this does not affect their friendship at all and they are even closer than ever. PO is held up to ridicule while trying to save LAM from her lovelorn woe. Believing that PO is her Mr. Right, LAM seeks every opportunity to express her love for him. Sadly PO has realized this too late, and LAM is already going out with HO, with whom she is very compatible in terms of star signs, personalities and interests. HO's ex-girlfriend FONG CHEUK KEI (Mandy Cho) cannot bear to part from the man, forcing LAM to give up on the relationship reluctantly. During this most difficult time, PO has once again stood by LAM with tender loving care. As time goes by, the pair has gradually developed a genuine affection for each other. All of a sudden, HO turns up and asks to get back with LAM. To LAM, HO is a dream while PO helps keep her feet on the ground. Who is she going to stay with in the end?

Even if there are no more love sparks, Don’t feel sad in days to come.

Losing a husband has caused the first wife Wong Yeuk-lam (Michelle Yim) to have erratic behavior.

During this time, Ma Wing-ching (Roger Kwok) and Lei Shi-mui (Regen Cheung) are swindling around, with their schemes getting unveiled by Chun. However, Lam mistakenly recognizes Ching as her senior apprentice and she runs after him all the time. Ching seizes the chance to swindle money by working at the bistro. After a series of incidents, Chun and Ching unexpectedly begin to fall for each other. Chun feels caught in the middle between Ching and her childhood friend Laung Kau-mui (Derek Kok). All of a sudden, Fung's second senior apprentice Yam Fei-yeung (Lawrence Ng Wai-Kwok) returns home with his foster son Yam Shing-tin (Oscar Leung). Yeung hopes to get Lam's heart back to him but Chun believes that he has intentions behind it. Coming as a surprise, she discovers the secret of Ching...

細味



無驚 無險 無後顧地 我會懶爭氣
mou geng mou him mou hau gu dei ngo wui laan zang hei
Without fear, without danger, without worries, I would be lazy to work hard
人生 如低到就貼地 轉角有轉機

Life, if so low, about to touch the ground, turn a corner, there’s opportunity
全場也 在瞬間 如像鳥獸飛

The entire place, in a split second, like birds flying in the air
留下會是 我的知己
lau ha wui si ngo dik ji gei
Remaining here would be my confidante
就是傷悲 襯托歡喜~

曾經 迷失 埋下儲備 見慣惡天氣
chang ging mai sat maai ha chyu bei gin gwaan ngok tin hei
Once, lost my way, buried reserves, used to seeing bad weather
離開 成功有段距離 我至會更加 用力氣
lei hoi seng gung yau dyun keui lei ngo ji wui gang ga yung lik hei
Leaving, still a ways off from success, I would only use even more strength
未怕死 溜後到奮起
mei pa sei lau hau dou fan hei
Not afraid of dying, after escape, then exert myself again
流淚過程 那須講起
lau leui gwo ching na seui gong hei
Tearful process, no need to bring it up
就是傷悲 襯托歡喜~
jau si seung bei chan tok fun hei~
Even if sadness sets off happiness ~
就是酸苦澀 亦要細味
jau si syun fu gip yik yiu sai mei
Even if sour, bitter, tart, still need fine taste

You are with me on the journey, so beautiful
淡泊之間 滲進驚喜~

In between mildness and weakness, pleasant surprise seeps in~

Even if sour, bitter, tart, still feel exquisite
大難不死 你會想起~
daai naan bat sei nei wui seung hei~
Escaping from calamity, you will recall~
現實世界 很美 苦滲著甜味
yin sat sai gaai han mei fu sam jeuk tim mei
The real world, so beautiful, there is sweetness even in bitterness
苦滲著甜味
fu sam jeuk tim mei
Sweetness even in bitterness
