Kenneth Ma Admits Having Feelings For Selena Li
Kenneth Ma (馬國明) and Selena Li (李詩韻) portray a married couple in TVB’s currently broadcast wuxia series, Ghost Dragon of Cold Mountain <寒山潛龍>. In a recent joint interview, Selena laughed at Kenneth for being so attracted to her character that he could not keep his eyes off of her even after cameras stopped rolling. Besides finding Selena’s onscreen character attractive, Kenneth also admitted he has feelings for her in real life.
In Ghost Dragon of Cold Mountain, Selena portrays a pair of identical sisters, Chu To Fa and Yan Mei Leung. Younger sister Chu To Fa is a cheerful, simpleminded, and lovely village girl. She has a strong personality, and is a loyal wife to Kenneth’s character. Meanwhile, elder sister Yan Mei Leung lives a solemn life as a seductive courtesan. Selena revealed that switching between the psyches of the two characters was difficult and almost made her feel schizophrenic.
One of the most memorable scenes during filming was when Selena had to touch Kenneth’s nose. She admitted being a little nervous at the time, but Kenneth displayed no reluctance and proved to be a very cooperative costar. In fact, he seemed excited about the scene, since viewers would be in for a funny surprise. Kenneth added he had hoped to share a kiss with Selena, but she claimed it was unsuitable for a period drama.
Selena Has No Feelings for Kenneth?
Last year, Kenneth and Selena made a deal that they would marry each other in five years if they are still single when the time comes. Asked if the deal is still on, Kenneth replied, “There are still four and a half years to go! I believe our deal continues.” On the other hand, Selena laughed and exclaimed she is nervous and does not know how to respond.
Kenneth complimented Selena for being a wonderful person, and believes it is normal for her to set high expectations for her future boyfriend. Selena denied, “I don’t have any special expectations. The feeling I have is important; I would naturally admire someone with lots of motivation. Of course, he also has to be loyal and loving towards my family and I.”
While Kenneth expressed he has feelings towards Selena and is secretly waiting for their marriage deal to happen, Selena exclaimed the timing is not right and she has no feelings for him yet. Instead, she praised Kenneth for being a great costar and referred to him as a hardworking and filial bachelor.

Wad a stupid thing to say lol…
This guy is desperate for a woman……..hasn’t gotten any for a long long time.
Kenneth always sounds that way. Isn’t he? Whether he has it in secret (a girlfriend) but he always talks about women and how he wish he can share kissing scenes and intimate scenes with them or how he would enjoy it, he once also mentioned he watched porn, etc.
Sometimes feelings can be developed.
I think Kenneth’s feelings for Selena may have peaked during “A Fistful of Stances”. Afterwards, his feelings may have turned towards other co-stars, including Rebecca Zhu.
They do look so cute together they have the foo Chai Seung look!!!
Ahhh I like them together.. it’ll be cute if they do date in real life.. he’s much better then Patrick Tang!
Agree about Patrick Tang.
Kenneth is best suited with Selena, even more so than him and Tavia.
Well, I really hope they could be a real couple. They look compatible. 😉
They both enjoy getting facials…. the king and queen of facials in HK… hahaha
they look cute together. they both have almost no negative press ever.
He’s all talk, but no actions. Hehe 😛
LOL so true, always a sweet talker in just about every interview with a female artist….yet nothing ever happens hahah
Try as hard as he likes to come across as a cassanova, my nagging suspicion is that kenneth may be gay. Which straight man at 40 never had a past relationship with a womsn, still lives with mom and is awkward among women? Just my gut feel.
@rofl: it isnt the descriptions of gays. I think it is more of the problem of keeping image and personality.
I mean the problem arisen between keeping image and personality.
That’s what Tavia said about him too Lol
don’t want to see them together.
Kenneth has a playboy image.
Oh yeah who has he been with?
omg i agree. figurative speech.
their chemistry in the drama though… it was amazing!
I really hope selena wins best actress. Very good acting!!
her acting that great, she has a looooooong way to go LOLOL…
I think her acting is great too
Selena is very good and cute in Ghost Mountain. I hope she at least nominated to top 5
…Nothing will happen. He is just a funny guy. lol
I understand Selena. Sometimes a man loves you in years but you just cant have any feeling toward him despite how hard you try. I have the feeling Selena doesnt want to say it out directly for some reasons such as promotion, company, friend, etc. but she sets the friendzone and uses time to avoid. In 5 years, she will still hope to find her right man.
Kenneth is all talk. He says that to all his female co-stars. For On Call, he praised Tavia and now Selena. It’s all to promote their on-screen image. He or his PR tries hard to get news generate for him but for some reason we don’t hear much about him. It’s like the paps find him so boring that they won’t tail him lol. Wasn’t it comfirm that he dated Nancy? Or was that just rumor?
Kenneth did date Nancy. They both admitted it!
True. Kenneth and Nancy both admit they dated once.
Yawn. He seems to have good feelings for almost all his co-stars … his spin doctors need to change tact. Getting stale.
Technically the poor guy can’t say that he feels this actress is annoying or that actress is ugly. It’s TVB. He’s gonna paired with the same gals or act with them again at least 10 more times. I think it’s smart he praises the ladies. Isn’t there a saying to never mess with women?
Kenneth is best suited with Selena. I don’t like Rebecca zhu and Tracy Chu, and Tavia is too old and already has a bf.
Right on Toby I don’t don’t like rebecca zhu too as for tracy she ok
Tracy and Kenneth are just for publicity. Promotion for her new face.
He was a sweet-talker to Niki Chow too. All the female co-stars think he just likes to kid around
Kenneth omg who will actually be his wife????? Lol
Can’t remember, previously Niki Chow? Now Selena. Who is next, Kenneth?
He looks like a casanova to me.
I think Kenneth likes Tavia but now has no chance there, so, next, Selena. They looked like a perfect pair in a Fist of Stance.
I read somewhere that both Selena and Tavia have tried introducing women to him.
This doesn’t have anything to do with the article but does anyone have any idea what happened to Bond Chan? He was in ruse of engagement as a member of the atf. He was a bully towards Ron and Ruco for a bit.
Bond Chan signed with HKTV. Now I dont know, I rmb I saw him in Chinese series as a supporting artist.
Quite a few of the Ruse of Engagement 3rd/4th line artistes have since gone to HKTV, with the exception of Fred Cheng – and we all know what happened to him lol 🙂
Yes and its a pity as a few of them were quite cute looking and some of their acting were quite good. But went nowhere with TVB. Do miss them though 🙁
Is he the guy in ROE whose nickname is Croc? He’s rather cute and a decent actor, better than some of those poster boys being promoted by tvb. It’s a pity he’s no longer with them or no longer acting.
