Ruby Lin Massages a Semi-Naked Sammul Chan
Sammul Chan Kin Fung and Ruby Lin Sum Yu appeared in a press conference for their new television series, Scheming Beauty <美人心計> in Taipei. Although it was the pair’s first onscreen collaboration, Ruby praised Sammul as a cheerful partner. Sammul noted that although Ruby was a big star, she was a very down-to-earth person.
Scheming Beauty’s story was set amidst the Han Dynasty and revolved around the story of Emperor Wen. In the series, various palace ladies fight for higher position and their husband’s fortunes. The women will hold numerous rivalries as their beauty and wits are pitted against each other.
To highlight Sammul and Ruby’s love for each other in Scheming Beauty, the director arranged for numerous bed schemes between the couple. In one scene, Sammul stripped down to reveal his naked chest, while Ruby applies oil and massages him. Ruby said, “This is the first time I have massaged a man!” Sammul said frankly that he enjoyed being massaged. He praised Ruby for having wonderful massage skills and “It was really enjoyable!”

Jayne: Are they selling the sexuality of Scheming Beauty?!
If indeed they are selling the sexuality of the series, then it is indeed a big pity because I do think that both Ruby and Sammul are talented actors in their own rights.
Producers should realize by now the key to the enormous success of War & Beauty as well as Jewel In The Palace lies in the great script and brilliant acting, something that cannot be emulated by sensational gimmicks.
Agree with you Sc2010, but I don’t think Ruby Lin is talented at all.. HEr acting seems to be the same old in every series.
I don’t really like Ruby Lin that much…her acting is so limited, but Sammul on the other hand <3
Have you guys even watched the drama? The scene shows a bit of Sammul’s back and Ruby’s massaging it to display husband and wife’s love. Lol, I don’t think there’s even anything relates to sexuality at all. It’s not even shown in the drama.
sc2010, I have not watched 美人心計, but my mom has and she said the series is very good. I think the director just want to show some intimacy between the husband and wife. Not really selling sexuality.
i like this series the first and ever series i watch apart from TVB
i have watched the drama n 2 thumbs up for both of them,
n
i just can’t find out why would the state of “Are they selling the sexuality of Scheming Beauty?”
is come up
coz.. the story itself and their act was amaze
i’m agree with you..
because this movie really good with morality by showing love is not just a sexuality like other movies make…
but it is about caring each other..
hope can see this couple again in another series..
lol,i have watch this drama for about 10 times, n i really love it …….. ( but at d end and my year end result was………)
This series is very good. Its really different because it shows Ruby Lin’s life until her death. I love how Sammul Chan as the Emperor love and praises on Ruby. It very good drama.
