This drama will have alot of those too hehe so I don't know if you can handle this tongue.gif

Here are more information on the drama:



SUMMARY
You may wish to be a famous socialite.
You may wish to have fame and fortune.
But is that really what you will wish for at the end?

In PAK SIU-YAU (LEE SZE KEE, LOUISE)'s eyes, her three daughters are just as perfect as diamonds. She believes that the greatest blessing for a woman is to marry a wealthy man. To guarantee a better life for her daughters, she has started training the girls since they were young, hoping that they will marry into the richest families when they mature.

YAU's first daughter HONG NGA-YIN (SHIU MEI KI, MAGGIE) does not agree with her on her values. Yet when she sees that the man YIN is going out with is KO CHEUNG-SING (LAM, BOWIE), who is very well-off, she decides to let YIN go with her choice. YAU's second daughter HONG NGA-TUNG (LAI CHI, GIGI) is hopelessly romantic but does not seem to have much luck with men. To make it up to her, YAU seeks to match her up with HO CHIT-NAM (CHAN HO, MOSES), the son of Hong Kong's most powerful business tycoon HO FUNG (YUEH HUA). Being the youngest in the family, HONG NGA-SZ (CHOI SIU FUN, ADA) is well aware of YAU's concerns. Having recovered from divorce, SZ now decides to pin all her hopes on FUNG.

YAU's persistence pays off and her daughters have all found a wealthy husband. But money does not really bring them happiness and the sisters are gradually losing themselves in vanity.

Her role was suppose to be for Charmaine since the director who filmed "War and Beauty" and "Dance of Passion" favor and wanted to keep the main cast: Gigi, Bowie, Moses, and Charmaine together like in the previous dramas but she decline the role because she was filming The Drive of Life. So the role was given to Linda. Linda at that time decided to film this drama so she decided to not be part of Forensic Heroes II.

Even though I don't like Linda, I'm a bit looking forward to see her in this one since this role will be different from her other "goodie" roles. And trust me this drama will be triple time the drama HOG and MR put together.

A song can take you back instantly to a moment, a place or even a person.
No matter what else has changed in you or the world, that one song stays the same, just like that moment.

OMG. You're reading my mind. That's the exact thought that went through my head just now when I saw those promo pictures. Ugh. D: Her acting and her voice drive me nuts.

And I absolutely cannot believe they're letting Moses lead a 80-episode drama. He is not a leading actor and absolutely cannot carry such a big production on his shoulders. D: I don't like the rest of the cast either. :3
