    I agree its annoying but I think its Moonlight Resonance parody. I'm waiting for Sweet Lotus Nut (the turtle from BTROC) to make an appearance. LOL

    I really did roll on the floor in shock when they

    This series is really hilarious. It's like 'A Bride for a Ride'. It's silly comedy, but, when you watch together with a group of people, you will laugh yourself silly.

    The Kam family was the unreasonable one in Episode 5. Granted, the Princess lacked tact in her speech (however, she is a royalty after all), but they blamed all their mistakes on Princess and Ngan Ping. In fact, I think she was quite lenient to them, seeing how the other princesses treat their husbands.

    p.s. I loled when the Princess brought out the crow...

    Episode 1 - Teary.

    click to show/hide spoilers


    Oh my, I just watched episode 1 and I got extremely teary within 30 minutes.

    The conversation between the third son, Raymond Wong and Kwan was very touching, despite Raymond's rather stiff acting. Kwan really knows how to jerk all my tears out.



    The beginning of Moses and Charmaine battling out was freakin hilarious! I absolutely love the screenwriters of this series.

    that was a good one, I'm glad the Kam family didn't get away with the lies- they are starting to annoy me. Linda's character not getting to my good graces either.

    they used same little girls to portray young Charmaine/Fala as the ones playing young Charmaine/Tavia in Beyond. I really like Charmaine's character - not big flower vase.

    I haven't watch the series properly yet. Just skipping scenes (with watch properly later). But, from the little I see, I really don't like the Kam family.

    When the Princess wanted a divorce, they all got scared and worried. But, when they found out that they don't need to give back the land or something, they became elated. All felt happy to get rid of the Princess. I'm really disgusted by their action. They used the Princess for their own benefit and then happy to get rid of her when they didn't need her anymore. Also, the way they scolded her. Has anyone thought for 1 minute that, if it has not been the Princess, they will all still be living a lie?

    I can't believe that the 3 brothers thought up of the sleaziest method(s) to get rid of the Princess, instead of the lesser 'misconduct'. Especially the drug rape part

    Earlier the whole Kam family was rounding up and screaming at the princess in her own palace ('yan dor har yan siu'). Self righteous claims on how dignity, virtue is important, how 'morally strong' their family is... blergh...

    The only funny part is where they filed for divorce in the matchmaker office.. and Do Luk's nightmare.

    Yes, I was so angry at that part too. Such hypocrites. The 3 brothers were so gleeful about it. At least, the women have more conscience.

    Do Luk himself was angry when the Princess accused him of having affair with the Chor Kiu. So, he should know the feeling of being wrongly accused. For the Princess, it's a genuine misunderstanding. But, Do Luk actually want to set a trap for her and thing there's nothing wrong with it.

    Also, I can't believe grandma went a lot with scheme to frame Princess for theft. They gave the excuse that the Princess won't get much punishment, so, it's ok. But, the important point is not the punishment, but, being accused of things one didn't do.

    The Kam family are such hypocrites. They only talk dignity and virtue when it benefits them.

    I wonder if the name of the place that the fumas go to training is a word play of the Ms HK charity organisation.

    The Ms HK organisation is 'Wai Yin Nga Jap', the place where fumas go to training in 'Jun Yin Nga Jap'.
