Who’s who in the Code of Honour?

Yes, a brand new martial arts drama series ‘Code Of Honour 正义武馆’ is going to be in production really soon! Set in the 60s Singapore, the show unfolds in the Yuan Martial Arts School (元门武馆) — a prestigious, time-honoured and one of the largest school of its kind during that time.

The leader of this school 掌门人, 元振飞, is played by Zheng Ge Ping 郑各评.

元振飞

He suffered major setbacks and lost his wife and son in a tragic accident. To make things worse, he faces stiff competition from a strong rival who is bent on destroying the century worth of prestige and reputation of 元门武馆. He struggles to save his school from going down and faces many challenges along the way.

Also starring in this 30-part series, we have our charming smile winner Elvin Ng (吃巧克力时间到了!). In fact, we have 2 of Elvins in this show. He is casted as a pair of twins 宋亚仔 and 元晨曦. If you realise, they have different surnames and that’s because in the show, they are separated since birth and not only do they have different surnames, they are very different persons too.

元晨曦

元晨曦, twin of 宋亚仔, grew up in the martial arts school and thus he was also very well skilled in martial arts. 元振飞 is his father (or so he thinks) and brought him up with great love and care. However, while he was going for a competition overseas, he met with an accident with his mother and died at such young age.

宋亚仔

宋亚仔 is a down-to-earth and honest man. Even though a tad reserved, he is well skilled in martial arts and has a strong sense of Justice. He was separated from his twin brother and was brought up in Thailand. He was called back by his mother on her deathbed and since his return, he works and stays in a fish farm, living a very simple life. 元振飞 mistook him as his son and tried to get his assistance in saving his martial arts school.

Taking on the role of the strong rival, 欧剑锋, who wishes to see the fall of 元门武馆 is Andie Chen 陈邦鋆.

欧剑锋

This man is a very strong martial arts exponent who will do whatever it takes to blow a hole in the prestige of 元门武馆. He will even use underhand methods to achieve his goals. Despite that, his attractive charismatic looks coupled with his great martial arts skills, he has no lack of suitors around him at all.

Playing his sister, 欧可璐, is our reigning Princess of Caldecott Hill, Rui En. I think this is a very interesting combination and for that I’m already looking forward to watch the show.

欧可璐

欧可璐 is lazy, self-indulgent and mischievious. She’s also the most half-hearted when it comes to training. 欧剑锋 instigated her to join 元门武馆 as an undercover student to snoop into their internal affairs. She quickly realises his bad intentions and did not want to assist him. She begins to take pity on 元门武馆. As things progressed, she fell in love with 宋亚仔.

Also casted in the show, it’s Malaysian beauty queen Chris Tong 童冰玉.

童冰玉

She works in her grandmother’s fish farm, where she got to know 宋亚仔. She admires and idolises him and slowly she fell in love with him. Her haughty grandmother opposes her liking for him. And only when she realises of his true identity, she encouraged her to go for him and forced 宋亚仔 to reunite with his biological family so that he could be of a higher social status.

Acting as 欧剑锋’s 小姨子 (sister-in-law) is Paige Chua 蔡琦慧.

蔡琦慧

That’s all for now! Watch this space for more updates on ‘Code Of Honour 正义武馆’!!

Paul, it’s too obvious for mediacorp. We saw many fans of chris in muar. She’s pretty in this image, but the photo you put on this site is weird. Since she explore herself more in outside movie engagement, mediacorp doesn’t give her the main role and not even cover her news.
She did well in CLIF, many fans like her , but the no.1 viewvership goes to the success of JP.
Her destiny is same as DYT. But we will support her forever.

I do not know what happen behind, and as a normal audience, I do not need to know. What I know is that Rui En was given many opportunities last year, and she had done an excellent job in portraying all roles. If she was given many opportunities, and yet put up a disappointing performance, it is justifiable for you to grumble here. However, the fact is, she had earned praises for all her three roles last year. You might argue, that is because she was given the chances due to some “conspiracy theory” (that you have so diligently type out). Well, if you not not have concrete evidence to prove that, do not say it like it is a fact. Just like how I choose to not dispute back your theory as I do not have concrete evidence against it, though I strongly believe that she earned the roles based on suitability and the EP’s confidence in her.

My question to you is, have you watch her dramas before you made those groundless claims? For those who watched, I’m sure many would agree with me that she suits that roles that were given to her, such that probably the EPs wouldn’t consider a second choice. For Happy Family, I can think of some other actress name for Yang Xiao Dong, but honestly speaking, I doubt they can play the role as naturally as her. I do not want to point out names. For Unriddle, she was a perfect choice for Hu Xiao Man, whether in terms of looks or the aura coming out from her. No other actress can come close to that. For With You, I admit that most actress is suitable to play Ye Siqi. But can all portray it well? Maybe some yes, but the thing is Rui En has gotten many positive reviews about her performance inside, and this shows she was the right choice too.

Anyway, I smell jealousy in the anonymous comments. Would you like to reveal whose fan are you??

When you realise you are barking alone, it is time to stop and reflect whether you are right.

  you sure she did the role naturally? i thought she looked really awkward in several scenes. yang xiao dong could have been portrayed better by jeanette aw. you don’t have to doubt what i say because jeanette aw did very well in “holland village” as mo jing jing. she even got herself a best actress nomination back then alongside with the top actresses in mdc like ivy lee, fann wong, chen li ping, and huang bi ren. rui en on the other hand didn’t get nominated for her role in “happy family”. instead she got nominated for her grieving mother role in “with you”.

    it is not possible to please everyone. acting is something subjective, you feel JA could have done better, but the fact is, many were impressed by her performance in Happy Family, Xiaodong made people realise RuiEn can also act those innocent and cute characters instead of the ‘cool’ roles always. even veteran artiste ZhuHouren also said before this:
    “瑞恩给我最大印象是《过好年》的傻妹角色，演到我们演员常说的‘刚刚好’。从头到尾保持水准，自然不失演技和技巧。明年最佳女主角应该是她拿，除非评审不会看戏，不然没人可以和他fight。”

Can RE be cast in a blockbuster since her drama has been doing pretty well? Tho’ I need she needs time to rest, so maybe a blockbuster after “A Song to Remember”? I think Ann Kok & Eelyn Kok would be good. Esp Ann Kok since she’s really good in her acting! Can we have RE & 715 stare in a drama together too? It’d be really refreshing & interesting to have them as the male & female leads for the drama cos I don’t think they have acted across each other before.. And can Tay Ping Hui remain in Unriddle 2 cos I’ve been really lookin fwd to the development of their loveline!!

JA and RE are the best in mediacorp right now, their shows always boost high viewership ratings, of cos they deserve to get more shows and be leads. Hopefully princess Jesseca Liu can get a new show as she can also act well.

  You don’t have to doubt Felicia Chin’s popularity here in Singapore.
  Apart from Jeanette Aw and Rui En who are really popular right now, Felicia Chin is also one of the most popular princess of all times. Followed by Jesseca Liu, and then Joanne Peh.
  Low viewership ratings? How?
  Blame it on the scriptwriter!
  I find it really eccentric of you to say that Felicia Chin is the cause of low viewership ratings.
  She was also in “The Golden Path” a few years back but I don’t see how the show flopped.
  The only 2 shows that she participated in and didn’t do well in terms of viewership is “The Ultimatum” and “No Limits”.

① 熟女帅哥谱姐弟恋　
参考电视剧：《败犬女王》
剧情模式：
　　30几岁的女一号精明干练、事业有成，不过一直找不到真命天子，直到认识崇尚随性的20几岁男一号，两人渐渐互生好感。虽然女比男年长，两人却能填满彼此空虚的心灵，相知相惜。这时，女一号以前喜欢的稳重男二号出现了，三角恋情就此展开。
设想演员：郭淑贤（女一号）、戴阳天（男一号）、方展发（男二号）
　　在同辈的女演员中，郭淑贤是脸蛋保养最好、身材最傲人的“熟女”，在电视电影《煮持人》中和张孝全演绎姐弟恋也颇让人信服。至于男一号，曾经和郭淑贤传出绯闻的戴阳天是首选，把两人摆在一起演戏，首先就有话题性，引人瞩目。男二号必须比男一号年长，并散发成熟魅力，外形不俗的胡子男方展发是不错选择。

  She has bloomed so well in terms of her acting shops.
  She should get better opportunities because she has got more to show.
  Blame it on her roles if there is a need to.
  Her roles always limit her to show.
  It’s quite annoying sometimes.

Those Hype artistes’ fans still refuse to see the fact?

Felicia was doing more blockbusters than RE? What were her BB roles like? All SUPPORTING roles, while JA got all the lead roles. And when Felicia was cast in any dramas that have RE or
JA, she is always the supporting one not the lead one. Was she less popular than them?
She got more dramas than them? Ya, either supporting or rejected by them.

JP? She was TRAPPED in a 180 episodes drama which she was initially unwilling to do but
her manager asked her to take it as there might not have dramas for her. She was afraid of
being ‘jobless’. Go & read her news. She wanted to do different roles & not held up for 1 year
doing a similar role but she still had to do it.

JL? She too has to play supporting roles when RE & JA are cast in the same dramas as her.
And in fact, she was singled out by most mediacorp artisites then as the one with the most
potential not just for S’pore market but also overseas, but what happened? She was forced
to leave mediacorp as she can see that she is not the favoured one.

RE suffered a backlash from the media for rejecting Defining Moment? Mind you she rejected it. She was the FIRST choice, so you see how much love she got from CLJ & KLS? And even after
causing so much inconvenience for them, they still give her more & more lead roles, so tell me
what repercussions did she suffer? Even those who picked her as BA think that it’s becoz she
was given so many opportunities to play varied roles.

Look at PLL & look at RE, the treatments are like heaven & hell. Who don’t have principles?
If RE doesn’t have CLJ to back her, do you think she can have it her way?
CLJ has been the head of Ch 8 dramas for more than 20 yrs, why didn’t he help PLL then? Why
so special to RE?

CLJ is the decision-maker & the boss of all the EPs, everybody has to give face or listen to
him. Then on the other hand, Hype will do the remaining job by getting them to the popularity chart.
That’s how CLJ & Ken Lim work. Tell me, can Ken Lim gets jobs for his 2 artistes outside
mediacorp? NO, all their acting jobs come from mediacorp. Those EPs have to say nice
things about RE & JA to please CLJ. The EP for Defining Moment left mediacorp, why?
Partly also becoz he can’t stand the way CLJ favour RE. He went against CLJ & replaced
RE without giving her a chance. How many EPs want to do that? They also want peace as
they have families to feed.

Why should we think of CLJ & KLS families when they don’t even think of those mistreated
artistes’ families?

Paul, if you are kind enough, pls tell CLJ & KLS & those SA EPs to be fair to all the artistes
when distributing tix & space at the red-carpet. They have families to feed too. This is their
careers too. Why when they are so professional & hardworking but were treated worse than
those who aren’t professional?

  Kudos to u, u must be an insider.
  
  Regards to JP, it is inaccurate to equate the 180 epi your hand in mine into 9 x 20 epi dramas as she doesnt appear in so many throughout.
  
  Also, only her daughter role is considered lead while that of the mother is simply a supporting ones. Imagine her chance of her getting other more exciting roles if she were really getting 9 series instead.

  Joanne peh and other princesses actually got into the acting industry way later than both JA and RE.
  Of course when RE and JA are playing lead roles, they would be still playing supporting roles.
  
  Isn’t that simple enough?
  
  I don’t know about JA, but RE did supporting roles when she first got into acting before she gradually move to doing lead roles.
  
  Both of them have been in acting industry for over 10 years, 11th year this year, and that is more than any other princesses.
  
  So, please use your apparently too small brain to think.
  They work hard to get to the position they are in.
  Stop whining and undermine their efforts in the industry.
  And stop speaking for people that you don’t even know, saying they chose RE for BA only because they think she have varied roles.

  If you said that CLJ is backing RE and favouring her, then please explain why her breakthrough was only last year, if he favoured her from the start, she would have become very popular in 6-7 years? Its a fact that she had her major breakthrough last year, and many EPs and fellow actors and actresses have acknowledged that, and thats why EPs are recruiting her for the role, because they feel that she would be able to pull it off. I dont think lips to lips kissing are really necessary, its just a few seconds thing and i dont think it will make the love much more real just because of a lips to lips kiss, and I think rape scenes are too far-fetched, its practically revealling your nude body to everyone who is watching the show, they are there to be actresses, not show girls or prostitutes, and she should have the right to reject the role without getting any criticism. Besides, the 9pm timeslot is for families to gather and watch tv, this includes little children, so i feel that mediacorp shouldn’t even include rape scenes , it might pollute their minds, of course, this is just my opinion, im not going to force it onto anyone. Sometimes its not the matter of treatment, but more of being able to portray the role to its fullest potential and make it seem natural, for example, xiao dong from happy family, you dont expect a 40-year-old pan ling ling to put on make up and act as a 20 ++ years old simple minded and carefree girl, who is going to believe that? Its not always about favourtism, its able suiting the role. Isnt JA currently filming overseas now in china and m’sia, and shes so busy until she has no time to star in any local dramas this year, this shows that artistes from Hype Records have talent and they dont get their roles just through Ken Lim and close relationships.What has distribuiting tickets and spaces at red carpets got to do with their families? If the artiste gets lesser tickets, will their family starve? My guess is that the tickets are distribuited according to the artiste’s popularity and fan base that year, RE’s and JA shows were in the top 5 viewship last year, and they was the female lead for the shows, you dont expect them to be unpopular and only a small space for their fans right? What is unprofessional? Channel 8′s shows are meant for the audience, so if the audience are able to accept the fact that RE doesnt do intimate scenes, i dont see why we should label that fact as unprofessional, and many of RE’s fellow collegues have actually acknowledged her hardwork and all, is that not called hardworking? If you feel that its so easy going on tv doing intimate scenes just to be labelled as professional, why dont u go on tv and strip? What are kissing scenes for? To make the love seem more realistic? I believe that there are other methods of making the love realistic instead of kissing scenes. If there’s chemistry, theres chemistry, sparks wont fly just cause of a few intimate and kissing scenes, instead, you could think of intimates scenes as plus points instead of deeming them as necessary in order to make the show seem more convincing and making the artist more professional, is it wrong to stick by one’s moral values? Okay, if you would excuse me, i have a test to study for tmr.

Hey, I only said that Jesseca’s age is about the same as 34/35. get the facts right please. OPEN YOUR EYES BIG. Gah, Jeanette herself have been in so many block buster shows all these while. The little nyonya, together and breakout. Not enough ah? These year, let it be a different year. Why princess? Get those black horse out!

I dare to say that those princess have fans because of their looks. If they look like a beast, (no offense) will they have so much fans? Being fans of celebs, confirm will talk crap to boost their idol. They just want their idol to be in a show so that they can enjoy on tv isit?! -.- Honestly speaking, my family won’t watch shows with princess because they feel that it’s unfair to have them too much. Maybe my family is more modern. They prefer ah Jies. That’s why! People have different views. I have my view : No to princess in this blockbuster.

Let Ann have a chance and prove others wrong!

Dear Anonymous,
After reading your comments on JA , RE, CLJ and KLS, I think they are uncalled for.
I really do not understand what makes you think that JA and RE are being favoured? Are they the only princesses that get many shows in a year? In fact, I beg to differ! Let’s look at the tabulation below for the number of shows that each princes of has over the last few years:

FC DY JA RE JP FX JS
2007 4 1 3 2 4 1 4
2008 3 6 4 1 4 1 2
2009 2 2 2 2 2* - 3
Sub total 9 9 9 5 10 2 9
2010 1 - 2 3 7* - 1
2011# - - 1 2 2 - 1
Total 10 9 12 10 19 2 11
Source: Mediacorp Channel 8 Program Schedules
*YHIM 180 episodes which is equivalent to 9 usual shows! Since YHIM started showing in Nov 2009, I put 2 and 7 episodes in 2009 and 2010 respectively
.#only include number of shows till date. The other shows include uncertainties, and hence, not included.

Before the departure of several princesses in 2009/2010, how many shows did RE have compared to other princesses? 5 compared to other princess with the average of 9 for 3 years from 2007 to 2009! Her breakthrough came only in 2010 when she landed with 3 different show genres and delivered it very well. Hence, she became more popular. Also so far, till date, no blockbuster shows. You called that favouritism?

As for JA, she has a great fan base with high popularity. You can’t blame her fans of wanting to know more news about her. Just because she has 3 blockbuster shows in a row, you called that favouritism? How about Joanne Peh with 19 shows to date and blockbuster shows, favouritism too? Are you going to give her names as well?

How about other princesses during their “hay” days with ave. 3 to 4 shows a year, are they in anyway related to CLJ and KLS as well? Please do not undermine the integrity of CLJ and KLS! They have other more important duties to carry out rather than giving directive out as to who should get involved in each show. Also, please spare a thought for the families of CLJ and KLS, how would their family members feel after reading your unfounded comments and one sided insinuations?
I just hope that when you give comments, please look at overall scheme of things and be fair. This year most people will feel that they have an “overload” of RE simply because she has 2 shows close to each other in the first half of the year, coupled with the fact that she has more media coverage as a result of being nominated in the best actress award and favourite female character and won them, as well as the promotion her future dramas which she has a supporting role as a blind girl, and as a lazy girl in the Code of Honour which the air time has not even been confirmed?
How about JP? She is going to have a police blockbuster coming up next after The in laws. So both RE and JP are the same, aren’t they? 2 dramas in first half, and much news coverage on them about Star awards. Is JP not being favoured as well?

Come second half of the year, are you going to make the same comments about Ann Kok as well? She has Bountiful blessings and a long drama Kampong ties, one after another. We are also going to see of many actresses in the second half of the year like Zoe, Yvonne, Felicia Chin (though she is still studying!) Ng Hui, ZY, newbies from star search etc.

Seriously, I don’t think it’s artistes’ fault that their names appeared frequently for a certain period of time, and hence, be subjected to unkind comments as a result of their popularity. It’s much got to go with the scheduling of their dramas and the promotion of their dramas. May be the Taiwanese’s show “Love” has taken too much air time that caused this disproportionate in the scheduling of dramas?

Also, it is the artiste’s personal choice and stance as to whether they are willing to do intimate scenes and be open about their private lives. It is a personal choice, which I believe caused RE greatly as well. Did she not have to give up her role in The Defining Moment , and as a result suffered a backlash from the media world and the producers? Have you ever ponder the reason why she does not talk much to the media, could it be she is afraid of greater backlash?

As for JA, she was being ridiculously rumoured to dating an actor, which kind of forced her to declare to the public that she has got a boyfriend already. So what is your take on JP about her open statement to the public that she is willing to go naked in a show? Professionalism? No! A person’s body is their own private property that does not need to be subjected to public scrutiny if one chooses not to. AN artiste does not have to “sell” their bodies. All I can say is that to each have its own; they have their rights to choose their own stances in life.

Maybe Mediacorp should just postpone to air “the Code of Honour” to next year, so that RE will not be overexposed and let all 3 remaining princesses to act in “A song to remember”! Let’s see what’s the response will be like! Even though I do pity take pity on JA because she has been filming non stop this year from Destiny in Her hands, then the China Nyona and then “A song to remember” if chosen. But it will be good, at least, all 3 princesses each have 3 shows this year and no one will accuse that it is unfair!

Thank you.

Jesseca Liu will replace Jeanette Aw if she isn’t free for “A Song To Remember”.
That’s why things are not confirmed for Jesseca Liu because Jeanette Aw may just return like how you say she did for “Together”.
Jeanette Aw is still the top and first choice of the Executive Producers…

_________

excuse me, please mind your words. jesseca liu need not be a replacement for any artiste, and nobody cares if it’s even jeanette aw. jesseca has her own capabilities for the EPs to look up to and of course, a good management company right now too. please ask yourself, why would jesseca and her international management company keep themselves waiting in uncertainties just for a local singapore actress (jeanette aw)’s uncertain schedule. that’s totally ridiculous! moreover, jesseca definitely would not be that stupid to take up a role just to REPLACE some other actresses like jeanette aw, cos she doesn’t need to. bear in mind that she too, has her demands. not only jeannette has hers.

  I have never doubt the demand for Jesseca Liu.
  Please don’t mislead my comment.
  I’m just saying what I’ve heard, and that is Jeanette Aw is the number one choice of the EPs for “A Song To Remember”.
  So of course, if Jesseca Liu is to take part in it, and Jeanette Aw isn’t, wouldn’t this be called replacement?
  Jesseca Liu is a professional artiste.
  You’re probably too worked up by the word “replacement”.
  It’s nothing negative actually.
  In fact, if you get to replace someone, it also shows that you’re good and have what it takes and that’s the case for Jesseca Liu.
  Look like Eelyn Kok.
  She replaced Fiona Xie and she did really well in “Together”.
  She even earned herself a nomination for that in Star Awards 2010.
  By being a replacement doesn’t mean there’s no demand for you.

    I don’t think it was mentioned anywhere that jeanette is the NUMBER ONE choice? Maybe she did mention she was invited to be in, but.. number one?
    Like what you said about Eelyn replacing Fiona’s role, people out there just wont stop mentioning her as a replacement. Wouldn’t any artiste feel not good about being called a replacement? Whether or not a nomination is granted, I feel that the artistes won’t feel that good being called a replacement anyhow.
    Maybe I was being a little sensitive over your comment and i sincerely apologise about it. Take it light alright?
    
    Anyways, I do hope that Jesseca will be involved in a new production soon, given her capabilities to handle roles with better techniques and emotions very well. Pray that the EPs/production company will make the wise choice.

Hey guys, Ann can get to act with young guys because SHE HAVE THE LOOK. C’mon. She doesn’t look like she’s 38. At most, 34/35. Which is almost the same age as her good friend, Jesseca. What’s wring with you guys? Jealous that she have the looks? Ann deserves to get the lead in a sing to remember. Been so long since she has been in the year end blockbuster. Executive Producers, please have a thought about this. thanks!

Paul, got someone above does not like Rui En and Jeanette ‘s high popularity.
Because its very obvious during star award, these 2 are the leading for FEMALE.
While his/her idol fans are not as big as both of them, so he/she get so angry.
So starting to bring in top management A,B,C,D,….

This person never think that Joanne has a very high exposure also. She has been given many chances and very good roles.
But that person never say anything about Joanne, only attack Rui En and Jeanette.

Again that time during Felicia’s time, she has been included in many BB.
Got many chances, but never attack her ; as she left MDC and not threatening his/her idol anymore.

I really feel pity on Rui En and Jeanette.
Not many young good actresses left now.
But with these few, he/she would like to kill their existence.

Fann ever have Yu Wu as on screen partner.
Eelyn ever have Z Huan as on screen partner.
Both males are younger than their females.
But they keep attacking Jeanette and DYT or Jeanette and Elvin ; which young children at my family also could say they are actually very compatible.
I believe young children’s comment are very pure and come from their heart.

i really, truly hope that for the blockbuster cast,
the EPs can use Fann, Ann & Cynthia.
why not have a change instead of using the princesses?
rui en is really too busy,
jeanette is going overseas,
and joanne probably wants to act in the movie?
let these 3 actresses prove the audience wrong,
that they too can boost 收视率.

(Paul: “The roles were decided by the EPs based on teh star’s power to play the role and audience’s acceptance plus availability)

Are you saying in mediacorp only RE & JA has the power to play the roles & viewer’s acceptance?
Prove to us how do they know that? The other actresses were not given the opportunities to
try & they don’t have Hype to help them ‘create the false belief of their popularity’

(Paul: “The roles were decided by the EPs based on teh star’s power to play the role and audience’s acceptance plus availability)

No, the EPs take instructions from the top, ie Kok Ling Song who in turn takes instruction
from Chang Lung Jong. So tell me, who is the ultimate decision maker?

(Paul: Times are different and EPs are different, so cannot compare)

Chang Long Jung & Kok Ling Song have been around for 20 yrs & PLL has been cold-storaged
for 20 yrs. What is different? CLJ has been the head for that long & KLS was formerly EP
& now the head of the drama unit. What so different?

(Paul: It is at the discretion of the EP of the show)

Again, the EP gets the instruction from above. So it’s still back to CLJ & KLS. These 2
want to make the TV viewers ‘think’ their darlings are the most popular.

(Paul: They are probably the biggest, loudest and most happening?)

that is becoz they were alloted the most tix & the biggest & most prominent space & the
cameramen was instructed by CLJ to keep focusing on them. Why would other fans scream
when they know the cameraman won’t focus on them?

“Pls ask Mr Chang to prove to us that RE has the great potential to help mediacorp
to scale greater heights or boost mediacorp name abroad. Or else, why spend so much
to groom her & waste tax-payers’ money?”

This is one point CLJ & KLS can’t answer. Give us facts to prove that RE has great potential.

(Paul: Your comment will get to her…it is always the choice of the EPs and some may argue with you that they are in fact compatible in appearances)

Thanks Paul, ya, you can give this feedback to her. Only her die-hard fans will think they are
compatible, but not for the rest of us viewers.

I hope S’pore media will do all the other mediacorp artistes a big favour :
Pls go & expose Chang Lung Jong & Kok Ling Song misdeeds. Then those fans who
feel their idols being unfairly treated, pls stop coming to beg Paul to help give them
dramas. Paul is innocent, his hands are tied, he is not the guilty one. You fans should
call the media & ask them to expose these unfair practices or else your idols will just
work hard for nothing, while others just take credit without any solid proof.
Unfair Practices :
1. give all the good roles & dramas to RE & JA (either becoz they are mistresses of the
top guy or becoz of Chang Long Jong close friendship with Ken Lim)
(Paul: “The roles were decided by the EPs based on the star’s power to play the role and audience’s acceptance plus availability)
2. why was PLL cold-storaged for 20 yrs for not obeying some director’s instructions while
RE can boast to the media about her not obeying director’s instructions & still get lead
roles after lead roles & winning popularity awards & acting awards?
(Paul: Times are different and EPs are different, so cannot compare)
3. Why other actresses who can act as well if not better than RE, professional but yet
didn’t get the better opportunites from the Mr Chang?
(Paul: Again, I replied in 1)
4. why SA tix were distributed unfairly? other artistes fans are alloted
a small space at the red-carpet while those few darlings are alloted bigger space?
(Paul: It is at the discretion of the EP of the show)
5. why was the cameraman instructed to focus on these few darlings fans on the red-carpet
& at all events?
(Paul: They are probably the biggest, loudest and most happening?)
6. Pls ask Mr Chang to prove to us that RE has the great potential to help mediacorp
to scale greater heights or boost mediacorp name abroad. Or else, why spend so much
to groom her & waste tax-payers’ money?
(Paul: Again, it’s in 1)
7. Ask Kok Ling Song, what’s wrong with her eyes? Why keep casting the 2 30-somethings
JA & RE as cute little sister of younger actors? Why pair a much older JA with DYT when it’s
not about jie-di lian? If she has problems with her eyes, she should step down from being
the chief of Ch 8 dramas. The decline in mediacorp drama quality is a clear sign that Kok
Ling Song is no longer relevant to current trend & she has some personal issues with
some actresses, that’s why she keeps making wrong castings.
(Paul: Your comment will get to her…it is always the choice of the EPs and some may argue with you that they are in fact compatible in appearances)
We want Chang Long Jong & Kok Ling Song to be exposed & expelled from Mediacorp
Ch 8 drama production unit!!! Both of them are unprofessional & have conflict of interest.
Ch 8 dramas didn’t progress at all all these years under their control & instead regressed.
They only produce ‘make-believe’ stars to cover their own misdeeds, that’s why
mediacorp lost out to all other TV stations in the region.
S’pore media, it’s your duty to expose these misdeeds!!!

(Paul: That’s not very objective dear)
Paul,the fact is majority of us love DYT & JA pairing. Only someone’s fans don’t like JA pairing with DYT because of their idol..please kindly thank Ms Guo Ling Song and the EPS for continuously pairing DYT and Jeanette in behalf of us!

And to the hater of JA above..really too bad..DYT and JA will act as a couple..once again..in qian jin drama..Jeanette will once again act as a 18 year old…see,even china eps find them compatible,even china eps also know Jeanette can definitely pass off for a 18 yr old…i assume the china viewers will also like Jeanette and DYT and Jeanette’s pairing…I know you are very very unhappy that your poor idol cannot act in Blockbusters,unhappy that your poor idol can’t pair with DYT..but this doesn’t give you the choice to criticize others..but no matter how much you complain,there will be definitely more pairings of DYT and Jeanette…

that’s the problem with mediacorp, getting a 34 yrs old to play aunt to artistes in their 30s.
then get 30-something actresses to act as cute little sisters of 25 yrs old actors. The casting
directors got eye problems or is it another PERSONAL issue. ken Lim artistes must always get
to act as little sisters to younger actors despite that they are in their 30s?
then our media also got problem : Ox is 32 & CL is 40, 8 yrs gap & the media said ‘lao shao pei’.
but when Ox (32) & DYT (26), 6 yrs gap, the media kept quiet & didn’t say ‘lao shao pei’.
when DYT (26) got to act as OLDER bro to Ox (32), the media didn’t cry foul.
No wonder, Mediacorp keep doing absurd casting.

DYT and JA is 5 years gaps. Jeanette is still 31 lol.your math got problem,seriously..how about your ann kok pair with someone 10 yrs younger than her in cooking without clothes?how about eelyn kok,jesseca liu all pair with ZZH who is 6 and 7 years younger than them? how about zhou ying pairing with joshua ang?also five years different..fann wong paired with 715,715 is 5 years younger than fann too. you keep picking on Jeanette when there are so many other actresses pairing other actors much younger than them..while Jeanette and DYT is only 5 years difference and they look good together,you really hate Jeanette so much. what did she do to you?put sand in the food you eat,or did something cruel to you,no right?can i request that you please do not pick on Jeanette anymore?

You really give me a slight and tiny hope of what we all really HOPE.
Waiting for your good news

(Paul: Until the cast list for Dec’s drama is confirmed, anything is possible, really…there was a time when she was no longer available to do ‘Together’ but she was confirmed finally…so anything is possible))

  means jesseca might not be free to take up ch8 dramas is it?
  
  (Paul: Usually, a cast can only be finalised when the co-stars or at least the one acting opposite must be compatible and available. E.g. the EP may decide on a star A to go with star B but if star B is unavailable, then star A may have to be changed simply because an alternative may not be compatible with star A…but I’m not saying anything yet…hehe)

    Jesseca Liu will replace Jeanette Aw if she isn’t free for “A Song To Remember”.
    That’s why things are not confirmed for Jesseca Liu because Jeanette Aw may just return like how you say she did for “Together”.
    Jeanette Aw is still the top and first choice of the Executive Producers…
    It’ll actually be the best if both can participate in the big show like how they did in “New Beginnings”.
    I thought their collaboration worked out very well.
    
    Also, will Joanne Peh be in “A Song To Remember”?
    
    Rui En should not pick up so many productions in a year… 4 productions in a year is a little too much… I mean… It’s not like there isn’t anyone else in the company for the producers to cast… Underrated artistes like Eelyn Kok should get more exposure… She can actually act better than Rui En. Same thing goes for Apple Hong and Vivian Lai.
    
    Any comedies coming up in Mediacorp or not? I miss Patricia Mok.

      It is rather sad if Jesseca cant participate in the drama because of this.

        Don’t think Evelyn, Apple and Vivian Lai can act better than Rui En.
        
        Just because Rui En act in many shows this 2 years doesn’t mean that she can’t act well.
        
        I can still see her heart and soul in every drama she did.

that’s the problem with mediacorp, getting a 34 yrs old to play aunt to artistes in their 30s.
then get 30-something actresses to act as cute little sisters of 25 yrs old actors. The casting
directors got eye problems or is it another PERSONAL issue. ken Lim artistes must always get
to act as little sisters to younger actors despite that they are in their 30s?
then our media also got problem : Ox is 32 & CL is 40, 8 yrs gap & the media said ‘lao shao pei’.
but when Ox (32) & DYT (26), 6 yrs gap, the media kept quiet & didn’t say ‘lao shao pei’.
when DYT (26) got to act as OLDER bro to Ox (32), the media didn’t cry foul.
No wonder, Mediacorp keep doing absurd casting.

Chris Tong looks so unnatural, not every actress can carry off a traditional look set in 70s, 80s.

Is it the actress’s feature or simple the make-up and imaging department.

Can they kindly refer back to former productions an even HK productions for better imaging improvements.

Chris Tong looks so strange in this image.

yes! RUIVIN! i really like elvin-ruien combination.but since it is a kungfu drama should ask vincent ng to act haha.
love rui en’s photo, can already see the laziness and mischievous in her. saw in iweekly that ruien is reading on the history of s’pore to prepare for this drama. ZGP is a good choice but not looking forward to paige, chris and andie…quite a weak cast, hopefully rui en and ZGP can save the day. ok i am baised but i feel that elvin’s acting is better when he is with RE, ]hope that paige/chris/andie scenes will not be a lot.
are they all in malaysia filming already?

One big problem with Mediacorp, aging actress.

Hence we always older actresses and younger actors BUT acting as younger sisters and older brothers.

Egs are Ouxuan and DYT, OX and ZZH. Now RE and Andie.

RE fans got the cheek to bring up the comparison between RE & PLL?
Ya, both of them don’t want to do intimate scenes, but can everybody see the
different treatments dished out to 2 of them. It’s like heaven & hell.

PLL got cold-storaged for 20 yrs & always play supporting roles & not getting any popularity awards for 20 yrs.

Look at the heavenly treatment RE got. Getting lead roles after lead roles for years. Gettinng top 10
every year & even got most fav female role & BA.

Why so different treatments? It is not as if RE is more beautiful than PLL. It is not as if RE has
great potential to earn big money for mediacorp. It is not as if she can help mediacorp venture
out of s’pore. In fact, she flopped big time overseas, that’s why come back to Ch 8 which she
despise the productions & her colleagues.

Now tell me, isn’t something amiss? If mediacorp is fair to every actress, why other actresses
have to do intimate scenes? If not, they will be cold-storaged. Why RE can boast to the media
about her ‘principles’ & can be cold to people around her but nobody dares to say a thing about her?
See Richard Low also daren’t talk bad about her instead beat around the bush to say she is not
rspectful of veterans.

That is becoz she has strong backing. Either she is a mistress of the top guy in mediacorp (that’s why no boyfriend) or as what is well-known fact, chang lung jung is being personal due to his
close relationship with ken lim. that is why both JA & RE are so favoured despite not being
direct artistes of mediacorp.

C’mon mediacorp stop all your evils before being exposed. Your artistes are already unhappy how unfair you all have been in distributing those SA tix & space at the red-carpet.

  Aren’t the factors you say based on your assumptions, do you have any substantial evidence to prove it? If you say mediacorp is biased and u dont like that fact, then dont support mediacorp and stop watching the shows produced by mediacorp or interviews with RE in them, dont have to attack her online.

    ………………..
    
    RE fans are so arrogant & a bunch of crazy bananas. The facts are there for all to see & yet
    they can argue they are assumptions. Go & check & see if it is true that Ken Lim & Chang
    Lung Jung are close friends. Then go & compare how PLL & Re are being treated.
    Go & read zaobao about how the other artistes complain about mediacorp unfair treatment
    but they don’t dare to put their names as they fear repercussions. They know now it’s RE
    & JA times becoz CLJ is in-charge. Those fans of other actresses pls stop moaning for
    & begging for your idols, go & file a petition to the new boss & expose CLJ & Kok Ling Song
    biaseness. Or else, your idols will continue to get unfair treatments while those crazy bananas
    will keep occupying the red-carpet & screaming like a bunch of crazy bananas.
    If RE has great potential, nobody can say Mediacorp is biased, as they have to groom her for
    their business. But what can RE contribute? Pls tell me.

      If they are arrogant, would they even bother doing social work? I doubt Ken Lim would make use of their friendship to promote his artiste, and there are many people in hype records, why is it only the 2 of them? If RE and JA doesnt have potential, why would they be able to make the viewers cry, hasnt RE and JA contribuited by getting their dramas into the top 5 last year ( with the help of others ) of course its not all their work, but in the dramas they are the leads so shouldn’t they deserve some credits? Isnt that a contribuition? And don’t you think you have gone overboard by calling them a bunch of crazy bananas? If you watch american concerts, i believe that there are much crazier fans there. And you are obviously biased, you say its the time of RE and JA, but throughout the whole comment, u mostly attack RE, for the past 3 years, the year end blockbusters have always included JA as the lead, but did you even touch on that fact? Even though u say many artistes have complained on zaobao about the unfair treatment, there are also many veterans who have commented and acknowledged RE’s acting, and isnt that the same as acknowledging her potential? If you actually use your brain to think, you dont want RE or JA to have so many shows, then dont watch their shows, and the ratings for the show are bound to drop and mediacorp will definately change their castings will give them lesser shows? Come to think of it, is it even RE or JA’s fault that they have “unfair treatment”? As an artiste, I believe they will do their best and just act, so if you die die also want to blame someone, blame those guilty.

  Judging by the comments that you have repeatedly posted here, you are looking at acting in a very shallow manner. Acting is a form of act which you have a lot more to learn to appreciate it in greater depth, and look beyond those intimate scenes.
