Synopsis of TVB’s “The Hippocratic Crush 2”
The Hippocratic Crush 2 <On Call 36小時 II> will be airing this November. Promoted as this year’s TVB anniversary series, The Hippocratic Crush 2 sees the return of regular cast members Kenneth Ma (馬國明), Tavia Yeung (楊怡), Him Law (羅仲謙), and Mandy Wong (黃智雯), while also introducing new stars Eliza Sam (岑麗香) and Tracy Chu (朱千雪). The medical drama will also star Lawrence Ng (吳啟華), who had left TVB after filming 2006’s At Home With Love <樓住有情人>, and Louisa So (蘇玉華), whose last TVB was 2009’s A Bride for a Ride <王老虎搶親>.
The Hippocratic Crush 2 will pick up where the first installment left off – Dr. Cheung Yat Kin (Kenneth Ma), now married to Fan Tsz Yu (Tavia Yeung), is faced with new challenges. Yu is pregnant, but being diagnosed with intramedullary spinal cord tumor makes her unfit to bear children. The stubborn Yat Kin insists on carrying the burden for her, and his bullheadedness takes a toll on his relationship with pathology specialist, Lokman (Lawrence Ng ).
Yu eventually suffers a miscarriage and also gives up her studies on cardiothoracic surgery. Yat Kin finds it difficult to accept the new changes in his life, but seeing the growth of good friends Yeung Pui Chung (Him Law) and Hung Mei Suet (Mandy Wong) from being inexperienced housemen to becoming trained medical professionals, Yat Kin learns that he must protect himself in order to protect others.
The 30-episode sequel will air on TVB Jade starting November 4, 2013.

can’t wait to watch this drama and happy that the main lead still the same person not like TITS2 that kill zoe character
Isn’t Kenneth coleading with Lawrence?
I’m sure kennath is leading over Lawrence its Kenneth drama
And in a way tvb is taking Lawrence for a ride tvb won’t show Lawrence any face cos Lawrence will disappear from tvb soon again but this might take Lawrence career to another peak like chi lam
i dont think the character of doctor lokman will take lawrence to another peak in his career,because ppl have seen him several times before as a doctor.so i think the doctor image wouldnt give him that peak as the captain cool of chilam.
We don’t know that yet his doctor role this this sounds different u r right just like Francis role we like it in Titus but nothing changed for Francis ng
I’m looking forward to this and I hope the sequel will be as good as the prequel.
I am confused.
“Yu is pregnant, but being diagnosed with intramedullary spinal cord tumor makes her unfit to bear children. The stubborn Yat Kin insists on carrying the burden for her, and his bullheadedness takes a toll on his relationship with pathology specialist, Lokman”
Is Yat Kin carrying the child aka surrogate despite being a man? His relationship with Lokman as in lovers? Because they both specialise in different stuff.
Yeah, I’m confused about the baby-carrying too
Agree
so sad why do people always suffer from miscarriages in tvb dramas =[
Ikr:(
Seems to me Kenneth is an immature husband and Dr in 2nd part and put Lawrence on model dr role? Why is that?
Too many disappointing series this year, I have high hopes on On Call 2, since the first one was really well done. I still don’t really like the idea of pulling in more characters, the first one’s success surprised us because there were only Kenneth and Tavia who are well-known, while the rest are just newbies (Him, Mandy etc), but that’s one of the reasons for the success of the drama, their chemistry on screen is really good and the script is well written. I hope bigger cast won’t spoil the drama like TITS2.
Yes me too. High hopes when they announced the sequel because I really like the first series. The chemistry between all the characters is great in the original. But after TITS2, I’m nervous that TVB will wreck the sequel. With a large cast they may have too many scatter stories like TITS2 and don’t have enough depth in the characters development.
Not looking for to this, Kenneth is a horrible actor… I have to mentally block him out when I watch this.
nice guy but horrible actor, i agree with you.
He barely moves his forehead which explains why he still looks youthful despite being nearly 40.
Really enjoyed THC (cast did a great job) and looking forward to THC2.
I didn’t know Sniper stand off have 25 eposides. I thought its gonna be 20 eposides. Way to long.
Synopsis kinda abrupt watching for Tavia Yeung anyways.
I love how its a direct sequel and not some other sequels that has a whole different plot and characters…
I listened to The Hippocratic Crush II theme song by Joey Yung. I like it, It was pretty good.
So what is Lawrence role in all this?
Only watching because of Lawrence, Tavia & Him Law.
Hope him have HUD babues
Why add so many people in the sequel?? Tavia has way to few screen time now 😐 and I really hate Eliza Sam her acting is so crappy and she’s annoying too
