Eunuch:Power Chan

“The Confidant”

And of course talking about break-through roles, there’s Power Chan…. again at his best.  
From being a great bully & eventually being friends with the group, he is probably the most loyal out of that group in the end. Power Chan portrays his character in such a fun & light-hearted way – such a pleasure to watch. I Love it.

Overall, this was a good show.  The major problem is the leading characters of Empress Dowager Cixi  and Li Lianying has been too drastically changed from the conventional ones we know. I do understand the need to surprise & shock but this didn’t do it well. It’s just not entertaining to see a scary cat Li Lianying or a subdued Cixi. It’ll be fun to see Wayne play an evil Li Lianying. Same goes with Michelle .

The surprise comes from Raymond Cho’s & Power Chan’s portrayal of the 2 eunuchs. That really rise the bar for the whole show.
