hey there... some how I am glued to the TV these days. I finally bought the DVD for the HK TVB series War & Beauty. Actually plan to watch them during Nov & Dec where I am more free. But eagerness seem to ruin my plans!! Yeah, I know its an old show... I had a hard time finding it ok? Wait so long for the price to drop.... hehe...
Channel 8 did broadcast this series a few monthes back. However I missed one whole big chunk of the episodes. This show attached to me was that I like this actress Charmaine Sheh. (PS: I am not a les.) I like her acting bah... Not so sure why... I love her shows. She has these sparkling eyes that I believe it never fail to capture any guys' heart. Am I correct? She always portrays ladies whom has a strong character, but also has a weaker side.
What I really like about this show is should be the costume bah. Very pretty. I love those collars!! Sometime I wonder do those ancient ladies wore those headgears. Damn heavy I guess, with so much jewels, flowers & hairpins on it.
Another reason of my interest? erm... Because of the "Cats-Fights" I think. Well, this show portraits how royal concubines trying to secure the Emperor's favor during Qing Dynasty China, with corruption, intrigue and outright deceit being the weapons of choice. These women were willing to manipulate, betray and even kill just about anyone in order to get what they wanted. woah....
Another character that is very interesting is Yuet (portray by Sheren Tang). She is a initially favored concubine who eventually fell out of favor with the Emperor after losing a power struggle with the Empress. She is also initially known for her rather bullying demeanors.
The story get very interesting when the manipluation gets so "out-of-hand".I don't really understand Canto. But I been watching it in Canto. They sound cute. Learn some words here and there.
Yup, me & my 3-minutes craze..... XD
