Pretty Butterfly

Sunday, September 25, 2005

Last Sunday, was one of the most anticipated days of the year because I’m watching Xue Lang Hu with Li Leng! Travelling to Singapore Indoor Stadium was inconvenient due to upgrading works of the National Stadium. As we approached the entrance, we were prevented from bringing our water bottles inside. This rule is probably to help generate income for the 7-11 inside which I find irritated as we are forced to buy drinks. I muttered to myself that I’ll never buy the drinks. Our seats were located at a level above providing a fantastic overview of the stage.

The curtains rolled up for the first segment.

A ballroom full of rich aristocrats were swirling to the bead of the music. Then one of Ning Jing Xue’s (lead actress, Evonne Hsu) pursuers pluck Lang Hu’s (lead actor, Jacky Cheung) well tended flowers. Lang Hu quarreled with him and was fired from his job. Later, Xiao Xue went up to Lang Hu hoping to find out more about him. This simple acquaintance pave a way to a romantic and cliché heart wrenching love story of a poor gardener and a rich girl.
So how can a pair of lovers go without a third party? So Xiao Xue’s sister, Ning Yu Feng ( supporting actress, Nnadia Chan) became Hu Lang secret admirer.

This show’s highlights were Jacky Cheung, Evonne Hsu and Nnadia Chan.
Overall, the show’s story was weak but was saved by the amazing singers in the production.
