Sounds weak.
Meh. Only interested into “A Fist WIthin Four Walls” because Ruco is in it. Not too interested about the others. Might concentrate on Mainland Chinese drams since their summer holidays are about to start.
What a weak line up in dramas.
Only Fist within Four Walls and Louis Yan are worth watching
Both Bobby and Mandy have lost A LOT of weight. Although Mandy was never overweight in the first place.
