@1piscesish if it makes you feel better why his mandarin is better than Cantonese, it could be the fact that both his parents are mainlanders chinese. His mum is a Shanghainese, therefore he also speaks shanghainese since it is his mother’s tongue. Not surprisingly at all that he could speak better mandarin than Chinese since he probably speaks it at home and use English medium in the intl school.

Omg, I've heard him speak Cantonese before but the Korean accent was not that strong! So hearing this, it makes me wonder if he is stressing the Korean accent purposely, which is a shame! I also heard him sing in Mandarin before, and it's also not as bad, so it's disappointing knowing that he is a Hong Kong native.

Not a fan of either. Used to ship Boscolie but after so many years, time proved that they are not right for each other.

First thing that came to mind after seeing the smiley face...Justin Bieber's brand. Definitely lack of creativity but ofc he can make some money off his popularity status in Mainland. Maybe the spelling of the brand has a special meaning.

Update on this article! I came across the actual clip on YouTube and it shed more light to who the actress was. https://youtu.be/Nt2tkIJ3tu0 Wayne disclosed that the actress has a common last name. That basically tells us that it’s not Bernice Liu, Sonija Kwok or even Myolie Wu, as some people had mentioned. Maggie Cheung and Niki Chow would be the most likely according to this clue. Furthermore, Wayne disclosed that the actress is outsourced and not a TVB managed artiste. That definitely sounds more like Niki Chow. If you read the comments on the video, most people are guessing Niki Chow as well.

@cutie777 ATV did one, but this was a remake by Mainland. Of course, it was never completed because of the accident. I read somewhere that they redid it with a new cast after. The other one as in Hebe or Ella? They are still really active in the industry!

@powerhousequeen She might be referring to back in the days when she was still a newbie and not 1st lead material? I do believe that artistes who are not on a TVB management contract have a choice of what roles to accept, but if you're managed by TVB, you better not be picky unless you're super popular.

I'm a fan of S.H.E but I don't get it when people want to leave their inheritance to pets. How much money can they spend? Plus they don't live long. Of course leave it for your family and they can take care of your pets too lol

@powerhousequeen hahahahaha good one! But Wayne is probably used to Kong Wah as he was his "see fu" in Journey to the West lol

@1piscesish ahh true. But I think the diva in that series was Kong Wah

@powerhousequeen That's what I thought too...then I clicked into the original Chinese article and they mentioned that they collaborated in 楚漢驕雄 which is a costume drama.

Why suddenly bring up Myolie if she wasn't mentioned? The other 4 actresses were speculated not only because they've collaborated with Wayne, but also because they had history of being late. Honestly, comparing Myolie to these 4 actresses, they definitely seem more diva than her. Also, Wayne's definition of "popular" may be different from yours!

@1piscesish Finally, someone who gets me!!! I've been trying to explain her enunciation problem all these years and most people don't pick up on it, which is really annoying because it's pretty obvious, especially in comparison to other actresses acting opposite of her in series. I don't think it's much of a CBC problem as it is her bite. I'm a CBC and my Cantonese enunciation doesn't sound like hers. A lot of Miss HK/Internationals are CBC/ABC and they don't have Linda's enunciation problem. At first I thought it might've been a bad habit that stemmed from her translating characters into pinyin and then reciting them, but she's been doing it for all these years so it's unlikely. Again, I don't know why nobody has corrected her all these years, but it's really bothersome (for me at least) when I watch her.

@hazel I've been noticing this all these years too! I'm not the only person lol! That's exactly right -- she doesn't even enunciate her own last name correctly. She is a CBC after all. I also feel like her Chinese has gotten worse since she's been living in Canada for a few years now. Every time she goes back to HK, I notice that she uses more English in her interviews.

@1piscesish All I can think of is LUCKY DUDE. haha lol...She's young, pretty & rich? whooo whoo whoo way to go!!

Totally underestimated how rich Bowie Cheung (or her family lol) is!

They obviously got into marriage too quickly. They barely knew that they have such contradicting lifestyles and values.

@jimmyszeto I didn't say he was not cool or a bad actor. He just doesn't fit my expectation of the character of YX because he's supposed to be very good looking and have that 不羈 look. Appearance could be very subjective.

@1piscesish Are you serious? Alex Fong would be the perfect cast. He’s the coolest actor in HK by a country mile...

Raymond Lam's styling is really bad here! I watched that video about this version of ZWJ being in his 30s because the plot happens 10+ years after the 1993 version. Wong Jing is known for changing up Jin Yong's stories. You can basically say that he uses the characters and backstory as a template and then creates his own version of the novel. It's to a point where it's quite disrespectful to Jin Yong, but I guess you can also say that he's making it interesting for the audience since everyone already knows what happens in HSDS. Anyway, I am still going to watch this for the sake of entertainment and familiar actors. I am happy that the majority of the actors are from HK rather than mainland this time. As for the actresses, I personally like Janice Man but I don't know how I feel about her playing ZM. She does not look like a Mongolian princess, but she portrayed Wang Yuyan in a new version of 天龍八部 and she looked gorgeous there. I thought that they were gonna cast Rebecca Zhu as ZZR, so it's kind of funny how she ended up being YSS. I heard that Dilireba is going to play XZ which is actually a good cast based on her looks. Lastly, I wanna say that Alex Fong is IMO not handsome enough to be YX. The YX in the 2019 mainland version is really good looking lol.
