best remembered for his role in singapore ' s longest - running english sitcom phua chu kang pte ltd , singh was recently honoured at madame tussauds singapore with his very own phua chu kang wax figure , complete with yellow boots and oversized mole .

a group of mainly malaysian companies have thus come together to produce phua chu kang the movie . one wishes they had just left the yellow - booted contractor alone in oblivion .
actor and comedian gurmit singh , popularly known for his role as the boorish contractor phua chu kang in singapore’s english tv sitcom phua chua kang pte ltd , says his biggest priority in life these days is his family .

phua chu kang pte ltd , also known as pck pte ltd or phua chu kang for short ( 鬼馬家族 in chinese ) , was a singaporean sitcom on mediacorp tv channel 5 . the show debuted in singapore in 1997 . a sequel , phua chu kang sdn . bhd . debuted on ntv7 on march 25 , 2009 and will air in singapore ' s mediacorp tv channel 5 on october 6 , 2009 .
phua chu kang the movie opens this weekend . i had worked on it as a scriptwriter . the reviews have been mostly pans . now it ' s a matter of how it does at the
how times have grown for phua chu kang , and gurmit singh of course , propelling him to stardom unimaginable when he first started out .
kota kinabalu – actor and comedian gurmit singh , popularly known for his role as the boorish contractor phua chu kang in singapore’s english tv sitcom phua chua kang pte ltd , says the most important priority in his life these days is his family .
apparently , what many singaporeans don’t know about phua chu kang is that while he’s passé in singapore , he has a big following in malaysia .
an hour into the insult to the audience that is phua chu kang the movie , my mind , wild with rage , fantasised a grisly end to a character long ago bled dry of any entertainment value .
since then , the company has put its money into films with a strong singapore participation , including twisted , perfect rivals , phua chu kang the movie and the upcoming 23 : 59 and we not naughty .
singapore ' s favourite yellow - booted contractor phua chu kang has made the leap from small screen to silver screen . and it ain ' t pretty .
so even though i’m the writer of phua chu kang the movie , which will be released on aug 12 , i haven’t seen it ( and don ' t intend to ) , so i don’t know how much of my script is actually in the completed movie .
everything about it was low - budget sitcom standard - issue , from the cheap sets to the obvious jokes to the flabby plots . but the character of phua chu kang knocked viewers out .
there is a lot of potential in bringing an already rock - steady brand like phua chu kang to the movies . unfortunately , it is squandered here with the strange choice of story .
in the film , the titular hero , boorish yet lovable contractor phua chu kang ( gurmit singh ) has shifted his operations to kuala lumpur with his wife rosie ( irene ang ) .
phua chu kang ' s mole is actually made of papier - mâché . it is molded into a ball , painted black , and attached to his face with cosmetic glue .
when i die , my orbituary will likely say i was a
former executive producer of phua chu kang pte ltd
. urltoken has already described me as such in a
however , things get complicated when chu kang ' s nemesis , contractor frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) , finds out about the lucrative deal and heads to malaysia to wrest it from chu kang , while lim begins to make romantic overtures towards rosie and chu kang finds out about a long - kept family secret that threatens to change his life completely .
it has been ten years since the singapore - made television sitcom
phua chu kang pte ltd
( pck ) first aired on channel 5 before going on to inspire a theatre production .
the phua chu kang character made his first appearance in the second season of
gurmit ' s world
, a comedy in which gurmit singh portrayed his ' relatives ' in a series of skits .
while not exactly a - laugh - a - minute like the sitcom that it spun off from ,
phua chu kang the movie
is nonetheless peppered with hilarious situations , side - splitting antics and well - delivered jokes that reflect the cast ' s comedic talents .
phua chu kang is a comedy about family dynamics - and the family we know from tv is nowhere to be seen . there ' s no one to play the straight man to chu kang ' s over - the - top bengness here , so everyone has a go at being wacky . this is a movie where characters often talk to themselves - and to fish , on more than one occasion .
phua chu kang’s character is wildly inconsistent from scene to scene . is he smart or stupid ? is he selfish or generous ? nobody knows , least of all the film’s writing team and director boris boo .
ask gurmit singh if he ever tires of playing phua chu kang – the “ah beng” contractor in yucky yellow wellies with a curly mop and prominent mole to boot – chances are the gifted comedian will tell you never .
this was before we knew anything about the malaysian series or the movie or the webisodes .
but for fans of the funnyman , who soared to fame as contractor phua chu kang , it’s best not to get your hopes up too high . his new hosting gig does not mark a permanent return to the limelight .
about two hours after dropping my mother and sister off at the pck movie screening , i called to ask them what they thought of the movie .
however , the 45 - year - old believes that pck should evolve . that is why for his latest offering , phua chu kang the movie , gurmit and his film director boris boo have added more dimension and emotional depth to our endearing contractor – the best in singapore , jb and some say batam .
i helped rehabilitate the brand enough that people wanted to make the malaysian series and the movie .
“if the audience still loves me , i’ll act till i become grandpa chu kang , ” says gurmit laughingly during an interview in kuala lumpur last week .
phua chu kang the movie
definitely brings back good reminiscence of the tv series , seeing as the characters hadn ' t changed one bit and we are reminded of popular catchphrases like
don ' t play play
,
abuden
,
use your brain !
and chu kang ' s laughable mole twitch movement . some gags served to be quite amusing , while others fell flat with weak wordplay and slapstick which seemed aimed at younger audiences . moreover , the lengthy storyline could ' ve been better without unnecessary supporting character subplots like king kong ' s ( charlie tan ) ' tauhey break ' romance with lau pek ' s assistant angel ( angie seow ) and overly stretched chase sequences between the good guys and the baddies . the ending also didn ' t quite make
phua chu kang the movie
memorable enough pertaining to an obvious fraud unveiling and a supposedly
touching
scene involving chu kang ' s elderly relative .
sibling phua chu beng and his wife margaret ( played by pierre png and tan kheng hua in the singapore series ) do not make an appearance in this film , but chu kang’s rival frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) does pop in , competing with pck for the job of building the next wave of retirement homes .
the show ran for eight seasons on mediacorp tv channel 5 from september 1997 to february 2007 and subsequently led to a spin - off , phua chu kang sdn bhd produced fully in malaysia and aired on ntv7 in 2009 and 2010 .
entry he hasn’t seen the finished movie and has no intention to do so .
please rate this movie . you may write a review in the space below .
mediacorp itself has little to do with the production or financing of the movie , although many of the people involved in the movie , including myself , are ex - mediacorp employees .
characters in a tv series must grow with every season , but the sitcom , from the time it wrapped in singapore in 2007 to its current status as the spinoff phua chu kang sdn . bhd . in malaysia last year , has stubbornly gone in the opposite direction .
the phua chu kang ( pck ) phenomenon is an odd one and there’s no escaping singapore’s most famous tv ah beng , a character gurmit singh has made his own so much so he lapses into pck ever so often in whatever he does .
one day , chu kang ' s mum ah ma ( neo swee lin ) pays them a visit , but separates from them at a shopping mall .
chu kang and rosie ( gurmit singh and irene ang ) - as last seen on tv ' s phua chu kang sdn bhd - are now based in kuala lumpur . ah ma ( neo swee lin ) comes to visit but it isn ' t quite the social call they were expecting - she ' s really in kl to look after chu kang ' s abusive , thought - to - be - dead grandfather ( also played by gurmit ) because the old man suspects someone is killing off the residents in the old folks ' home run by the icky lim lau pek ( henry thia ) .

i ' m not talking high - brow here . nobody ' s expecting the royal tenenbaums - pck needs to be knee - slappingly mass . but things get so silly in this film , it makes phua chu kang the tv series look like 30 rock .
directed by boris boo , who last collaborated with jack neo in the horror comedy
where got ghost ?
,
phua chu kang the movie
puts focus onto chu kang and his slimmed - down wife rosie ( irene ang ) , both of whom have not lost touch with their alter ego , together with ah ma ( neo swee lin ) and chu kang ' s archenemy frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) . in addition to the show , we see henry thia as lim lau pek , the despicable ceo of siao soon old folks home , who oddly enough has the hots for rosie . be sure to watch out for a daring smooch between those two !
but overall , i was happy with that final season of pck . it ended the series on a good enough note that there was a demand for a sequel , which was produced two years later in malaysia , called phua chu kang sdn bhd .
these days , gurmit continues to be a freelance host at events both here and across the causeway , where his phua chu kang character is still very much in demand . he will also star in upcoming cosplay - themed local film young & fabulous .
had arranged two tickets for me to attend the movie’s “gala” premiere two weeks ago .
movies already released and starring a mainly singapore cast working in malaysia include this year’s crop , such as the comedies perfect rivals ( starring irene ang and shot in penang ) and homecoming ( starring jack neo and mark lee ) . phua chu kang the movie , featuring singaporean funnyman gurmit singh , was shot in malaysia and released last year .
producing that last episode was tricky . although the show was ending , we knew it wasn ' t the end of the phua chu kang character ( s ) . we knew we couldn ' t , say , kill him off . or have pck and rosie get a divorce .
the success of the movie led to a dispute between neo and jsp films over their shares of the profits .
in the debut season of the show , edwin chong played phua chu beng but ceased to be in the cast as of season 2 . pierre permanently took over the role from the second season and has made the role popular ever since .
the last time i ran at macritchie was about a year ago , commuting by foot from my choa chu kang home to my workplace in toa payoh . this mo . . .
i’m sending my wife to watch the pck movie today . she better not fall asleep .
s m ong : pck movie : the reviews are in . . . and mean !
like pck sdn bhd , the movie was set and filmed in malaysia to cut cost .
instead of trying to maintain pck pte ltd in its permanent vegetative state , mediacorp must pull the plug and use the money to invest in new actors , writers and producers . go find the next phua chu kang . that , to use one of his phrases , would be using your brain .
can ' t find a movie or tv show ? login to create it .
director boris boo ( where got ghost ? ) has realised the script of phua chu kang series scribe s m ong as a workmanlike effort , and even though he employs a scattershot approach – just fire jokes in great volume all over the place , rhyme or reason be damned – the humour thoroughly misses the mark .
“doing a tv or movie production can take a huge amount of your time . i was doing phua chu kang , dramas , my own talk show and hosting a whole lot of other programmes to a point where i was doing almost two shows in a day . there was hardly time for any breaks in between shows . i did that for 20 years .
the views shared reflects the personal opinion of some movie club members and are not a representation of golden village .
fans of phua chu kang pte ltd will remember the character’s trademark curly hair , huge mole on his face , long finger nails and yellow boots and most of all his clichés “best in singapore , jb and some say batam” and “don’t play play” which he pronounced as ”pray pray” in broken english .

phua chu kang ( gurmit singh ) is no longer the best contractor in singapore . he’s moved up to kl , along with his wife rosie ( irene ang ) and drives a silver mercedes benz . he picks up his mother ( neo swee lin ) and she promptly disappears as the phuas visit a mall .
i had seen the pck movie trailer and was dismayed by the number of things in it that i didn’t write .
his first movie blockbuster role , playing as ‘mr - foo ( mr . pink colour ) , was the lead supporting cast in the kelvin tong’s local movie men - in - white . after the success launch of the movie , an internet voting was conducted and mr - foo’s role brought a 153 % increase in ckay’s popularity .
husband and wife decide the only way to keep an eye on things is to take up the job of renovating the home with chu kang ' s arch nemesis frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) . snarling , bumbling and painting ensue .
her excuse : it was like a jack neo movie and therefore , she was not the target audience .
the movie was released on 12 th august 2010 staring gurmit singh , neo swee lin , irene ang , lim kay siu and charlie tan . the movie runs for 99 minutes and was directed by boris boo .
the cross - border popularity of the english - speaking gurmit singh ( who plays the protagonist phua chu kang ) and chinese - speaking jack neo also held a lesson : it made financial sense to see singapore and malaysia as one market since they both enjoy largely the same types of entertainment , says ong . both countries’ accents also mesh well , she adds .
hohohoo . . . . am sooo gonna love this one . . hahah . . . legendary mister phua
who would ' ve thought that phua chu kang ( gurmit singh ) , best in singapore , jb and some say batam , would return to make his big screen debut within the clever setting of kuala lumpur ( pronounced ' kuara rumpur ' in pck ' s ah beng slang ) instead of singapore . thus , an excuse to set aside pck ' s nerdy brother chu beng , his vegetarian wife margaret and their son aloysius .
singh and his employer mediacorp could have chosen the classy option some years ago . phua chu kang would have been a fond memory and a cult phenomenon , like david brent from the original bbc production of the hit sitcom the office . instead , the contractor has become the fonz from the american sitcom happy days , who by refusing to acknowledge his sell - by date , went from being cool to being a joke .
at a press conference in penang , the first question asked of saw was whether his non - penangite actors could pull - off the local dialect with its distinctive singsong lilt . of the 10 performers in his cast , eight including chelsia ng are from penang . singapore’s neo swee lin ( of phua chu kang fame ) and frederick lee from malacca take on the lead roles in the production .
the producers had paid mediacorp a lot of money for the rights to make the movie and hired me to write it last year practically at the last minute .
also , it is a bit of a pity that some members of the original pck cast such as chu kang ' s brother chu beng , and his wife margaret ( played by pierre png and tan kheng hua ) did not manage to make an appearance in the film , as i am sure they would have added a lot more flavour it .
ah goon is the worker replacing ah boon and ah soon who also played as chu kang ' s employees in the earlier episodes . they are related as cousins in the series . they also appeared together in an episode featuring them as an upcoming boy band .
in the movie , ah ma is actually ( spoiler alert ! ) trying to prevent pck from getting the job by . . .
well , . . . . i just watch this movie . and this movie is only focus on chu kang & rosie only . chu beng is only available in the begining part ( little chu beng ) and no margaret as well . as for the pck worker . . . . only 1 person which is king kong only . this movie is flim in malaysia which youcan see most places in film in kl ( berjaya times square , petaling street , tian hou temple ) and that old folks home i dun think is film in kl . probably in penang ( which i think is familiar to me ) there are few deleted scenes as well . . . . anyone here who can tell me who acts the
angel
which is king kong ' s gf ( the assistant manager of old folks home ) ?

yohoo ! ! the movie is nice ! funny also . . lim lau pek ' s brother is lim lau hia lol
watch this movie yesterday with my classmate . i am not hardcore fans of pck and i din reli chase the series .
the movie had a clear narrative that progressed towards a conclusion instead of falling into the trap of behaving too much like an oversized sitcom episode .
as pck pte ltd has found a new lease of life in kuala lumpur , chu kang and rosie sets of to fetch ah ma upon her arrival in kl , but soon goes missing in a mall and later discovered at a retirement home run by lim lau pek . unexpectedly , chu kang lands himself renovation work for the home , wanting to find out the reason for ah ma ' s behaviour , while competing against frankie foo , who also has the job deal . inevitably , the phuas discover something sinister and corrupt behind the friendly - faced lau pek .
too bad for me i wasn ' t the executive producer and director of the pck movie , like i was of the original tv show ' s final season .
phua chu kang pte ltd won
best comedy programme
at the asian television awards for six consecutive years from 1998 - 2003 . the cast also won
best comedy performance by an actress
- neo swee lin ( 1999 ) , tan kheng hua ( 2001 ) and irene ang ( 2002 ) as well as
best comedy performance by an actor
- gurmit singh ( 1998 - 2001 & 2003 ) .
but you still have to give the story and scriptwriters credit in getting creative with the setting , because having to relocate to kl , and setting the entire film there , means the narrative can do away with pck ' s brother phua chu beng , his wife margaret , and the kids , putting focus instead on chu kang ( gurmit singh ) and his vain wife rosie ( irene ang ) , both of whom are really comfortable in their roles like hand in glove , bringing back familiar faces like ah ma ( neo swee lin ) and pck arch - rival frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) .
review described the movie as
initially fresh and amusing but ultimately too one - note and local in its humor to travel far
.
the plot revolves around phua chu kang ( gurmit singh ) being persuaded by his mother ah ma ( neo swee lin ) to bid for a contract to renovate the heaven can wait old folk’s home owned by the unscrupulous lim lau pek ( henry thia ) . although he is not sure why ah ma wants so badly for him to get the job , he agrees to do it anyway when he finds out that his arch - rival frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) is also bidding for the same contract .
the publication also mentioned that the pck movie has been in development for a decade , awaiting the “perfect script” to come along . as flattering as that may be , i know the truth is something else .
support the movie ( otherwise i wouldn’t be forcing my own flesh and blood to sit through it ) – i just didn’t want to see it .
how could she fell asleep in the middle of her big brother ' s movie at its “gala” premiere ? that was just , well , rude .
my former employer ( which also owns 8 days , by the way ) had been interested in doing a pck movie since the ' 90s , but could never pull the trigger . ( even i was asked to come up with a pck movie idea one during my mediacorp days , but nothing came of it . )

the movie hits its lowest point in the part where the cops come for baddie lim lau pek ( played by henry thia ) . look to his character’s name , by the way , for a clue about the movie’s brand of classy comedy . the arrest scene aims for pink panther - style hide - and - seek hijinks , but what emerges is wildly incoherent and insultingly lazy .

there’s an old joke about the dumb blonde trying to get ahead in hollywood by sleeping with the screenwriter . for an enactment of the joke , you can watch heather graham as said blonde in the 1999 movie bowfinger .
somewhat agree . looks like a pathetic attempt to cash in from this sad , dying franchise . but for nostalgic reasons , i might check the movie out .
haha i just watch the movie dy . . . very funny like hell from start till the bust scenes . . . gotta kudos the local policemen 4 acting that bust so well like betul2 capturing the bank robber like that
the exception is when the writer also happens to be the director - and even producer - of the movie , like say , avatar’s james cameron and inception’s christopher nolan . and look how badly those two movies turned out .

singh , in a recent interview , has said he is proud of the movie and of the character and will keep on doing pck as long as the public still wants him . is he being deliberately naive ?
phua chu kang , the classic character played by gurmit singh , is well - known for his catchphrase , “don’t play play” . the contractor constantly claims that he is “best in singapore , jb and some say batam” . coupled with his trademark yellow boots , curly hair and a distinct facial mole , this character has never failed to put a smile on viewers’ faces . together with his workers and his wife , rosy , played by irene ang , the couple soon became a sensation and they even put up a musical at kallang indoor stadium back in 2005 .
in addition , pck handed out clues at one of the detours of the amazing race 3 . participants in the race were required to locate an hdb apartment in choa chu kang , singapore where they would be given the clues by pck . apparently , the original idea was to have pck at the pit stop alongside phil keoghan ( at the end of every stage of the amazing race , there would be a local person dressed in traditional clothing welcoming the contestants to the country ) , but singaporeans protested that this would give foreigners the wrong impression of the local people in general . [ 1 ]
as if to make me feel better , my sister said that many people ( but not her ) enjoyed jack neo movies and so the pck movie should be very successful .
the movie takes a clumsy stab at parent - dumping , but never really tries to get any satirical mileage out of the issue . meanwhile , the differences between malaysians and singaporeans could have also generated many opportunities at humour .
so how do you tell if a pck movie synopsis is the right one ? if it says that pck is persuaded by ah ma to bid for a job , it’s not .
director boo explains , “we want to keep the spirit of pck . but we need to add depth and emotion to the movie . but then again with pck , you can’t have too much depth . ”
if a two - minute trailer could cause me so much stress , sitting through the 100 - minute movie could give me a cardiac arrest . i’m not a young man any more .
he locates her at a retirement home run by lim lau pek ( henry thia ) , who lures phua to do some renovation work for the home by dangling the prospect of a multi - million - dollar deal on other retirement homes throughout the country .
to say pck the movie is a half - baked and rough effort could well be the understatement of the year as it’s neither original , clever nor grand enough to warrant a big - screen outing . yet the guffaws from the near - capacity crowd on the weekday afternoon screening we attended told a completely story .
the movie received a mixed critical reception with urltoken commending the film as
an effective satire of . . . singaporean culture
and noted that the actors
do a credible job representing characters from singapore ' s varying social strata
,
the movie is bad in the same way bad mediacorp sitcoms are bad , only it is much , much longer . grimaces and howls replace acting . primary school - level hokkien puns abound . the chaotic plot feels thrown together from three episodes fished from the discard pile .
after so long . . . . now only comes out movie . . . pck is legendary already to me . . hope they dont spoil this one . . .
haha ! ! i still laughing about lin lao beh & lin lao hia . this guy is really funny . . . my favourite character in this movie . . .
that was why long - time jack neo accomplices boris boo and henry thia were hired to direct and ham it up in the pck movie respectively . it even has a lot of hokkien and bad
you may only select up to 5 movies for the my favourite movies list . please remove movie ( s ) from my favourite movies list if you wish to select a new title .
this lovable character , an elderly lady is played by local comedy director , jack neo . many viewers remember her by adorable chuckle , the “huhuhu” that she oftens include with her speeches and also the way she walks and scuttles around with a hunched back . in the movie , she sets foot on a topsy - turvy journey that will educate , create laughter and yet tug at the heart strings of many as the movie discusses some issues that singaporeans may be concerned about .
if singh wants to trot out pck at company dinners or in a nostalgia lounge , more power to him . but please , for the love of everything holy , keep phua and his family out of the cinemas or prime - time tv .

i told him i was taking my mother and sister . oh , he said , he would arrange a third ticket for me . i told him not to because i was skipping the movie screening .
the recent horror movie twisted serves up plenty of scares . but viewers might get an eerie feeling of another sort as they watch singapore actor mark lee battle with a flying demon on a deserted road .

almost every major commercial movie project released this year featuring singapore investment and talent will be shot partly or completely on location in kuala lumpur , penang or some other malaysian city .
the 2010 low - budget malaysian romance - drama ice kacang puppy love , a labour of love by taiwan - based malaysian musician a - niu , came and went without a murmur in singapore cinemas . but in its home country , the movie written , directed by , and starring a - niu made hard - nosed industry executives sit up : it grossed rm4mil , the highest box office profit at that time for a domestically made chinese - language movie .
for the pck series finale , i got adrian pang to host the show framing the last pck episode and interview the cast at the end .

, the writer of the story , has something serious to say about the products featured .
over the years , i have observed the ebb and flow of the popularity of pck .
from what i ' ve heard . . . it is absolutely nothing more than milking a dead cow . besides , a movie made from a tv show is compulsory to have ' all ' the main characters in . right ? well , this movie it seems does not have chu beng and his wife margaret ! wth ? ? anyone who even watch a single episode of pck pvt ltd knows both of them are definitely part of the main pck clan . worse , the plot is said to be the worst ever . they tried to put too many things into the plot but completely fell flat . ok . show ' s over . this is absolulely a pass . no need watch . i didn ' t . and i ' m not planning to .
his style owed a lot to jim carrey but everyone was stealing from the american actor during that period . the problem is that today , singh still plays pck like the way carrey played ace ventura : pet detective , a movie released 15 years ago . the comedy world has moved on , but someone forgot to send a memo to the pck creative team .
, who was one of the writers for the original pck series , have managed to translate the spirit of the television series onto the film medium quite well .
the argument about the dilution of the singapore identity in films also made little headway , given that the job of the commercial film industry is to make money .

the movie received a mixed critical reception with urltoken commending the film as
an effective satire of . . . singaporean culture
and noted that the actors
do a credible job representing characters from singapore ' s varying social strata
, [ 14 ] while a variety review described the movie as
initially fresh and amusing but ultimately too one - note and local in its humor to travel far
. [ 1 ] francis dass of the new straits times wrote that money no enough was
spot - on
and
funny
, but criticised the
clichéd script and the director ' s penchant for melodrama
. [ 15 ]
pck has also appeared on two tv advertisements . he , along with chu beng , made his first advertisement appearance regarding the introduction of 3g mobile services and phones in malaysia by maxis and recently , an advertisement called bob ' s big surprise . [ 5 ]

to b honest i felt this movie not good enuf . the joke was kinda lame and it seem i am forcing myself to laugh on it lol . . but storyline wise still acceptable for me . no bloody scene or violence , so is safe to watch .
in an attempt to flesh out tv material for a feature - length movie transition , the film - makers have attempted to layer on emotional depth and
up
the action - literally - by turning a family comedy into a crime - caper slash mystery - adventure fit for the scooby gang . only with old people instead of ghosts .
“you can see pck in a whole new light , ” gurmit enthuses . “it’s hard to be emotional . the audience is used to him being larger than life , and storming off whenever he’s unhappy about something . but because it’s a 90 - minute movie , we have the privilege of sussing out his real character and the others’ . ”
a pointless double ending finishes the film , and the credits indicate there’ll be a sequel . if that’s the case , then the biggest joke here might really be on the audience .
if there’s anything we can be thankful for , it’s obvious the movie is made for malaysians and is riding on its renewed interest there . for once , we won’t challenge our neighbours for trying to turn something of ours into their own but in the interest of our newly renewed cross - straits relationship , here’s the deal : take pck and let us take the credit for inventing bak kut teh .

then just when you thought the series , pck pte ltd , has run its course , it gets snapped up by networks across the causeway where the spin - off , pck sdn bhd , has been entertaining malaysians since last year . its runaway success has prompted various malaysian production companies to finance this movie , which explains why pck is now obliged to add cantonese to the rojak blend of singlish and hokkien he spouts .
a spokesman for the singapore media authorities says they are aware of the situation .
inside the dream script , rosie , his wife played by irene ang , would get her lover , frankie foo ( lim kay siu ) , to run him over with a bulldozer and bury his body in concrete . the concrete would be in the foundation of an english - language school , naturally . foo should in turn be poisoned by rosie , who would ride off on the back of labourer king kong’s motorcycle , its spinning tyres leaving a black streak on the slab over phua’s corpse .
but he’s careful to add that he’s taken artistic liberties in his recounting of a filmmaker who returns to his hometown to make a movie about his family and reconcile with the past . “as much as i say it’s a personal story , i want to qualify that it’s not completely autobiographical , ” saw says .
lower costs are a big draw for singapore filmmakers , obviously . a typical movie budget of s $ 1mil ( rm2 . 5mil ) goes much further in malaysia , with the greatest savings coming from equipment rental and crew salaries . experienced hands , honed by years of experience in the thriving malay - language feature film industry , are also readily available .
i got the idea for the show - within - a - show from the series finale of the us sitcom cheers , which i saw in america in 1993 .
loving it here : romantic comedy perfect rivals features a mainly singapore cast working in malaysia . singaporean movie directors are in favour of shootingtheir films in malaysia , citing lower costs , availability of experienced film crew , and above all , this country being a filmmaker’s paradise of locations .
but the 2000 president star charity featuring the first pck musical was well - received .
the “singapore” on the screen , on closer inspection , has a slightly off - kilter feel : the apartment blocks do not look quite right and neither do the streets .
but what really impressed me about the latest episode was the segment involving local food .

seriously love this ! ! screencaps from the love forecast production video . love how they included scenes from the movie and behind the scenes filming and fun cuts , and the interviews in the video . the location shoots really bring such a lovely natural atmosphere to the movie . seunggi and chaewon are seriously killing me , both in the movie scenes and off camera !
structurally , love forecast ( 2015 ) follows when harry met sally . . . ( 1989 ) example of tying together episodic events instead of a strong narrative driving the plot . there is no central conceit driving the plot .
on a meta - filmmaking level , love forecast ( 2015 ) is meant to lift up a female ingénue and show her off to the world in 60 feet billboards as a star ! in this way , it is similar to there ' s something about mary ( 1998 ) . both movies are designed to have ”out of her league“ male characters surround the female ingénue and help her shine . while the lead of there ' s something about mary ( 1998 ) was ben stiller , it was cameron diaz who stole that movie . with love forecast ( 2015 ) , moon chae - won is cameron diaz . love forecast ( 2015 ) is moon chae - won ’s movie .
five years later , the two will reunite on the silver screen through the romance film “love forecast . ” it portrays the story of a man and a woman falling in love after sharing 18 years of friendship . the two are to depict the realistic sides of romantic relationships and draw empathy from viewers .
however , this character in love forecast ( 2015 ) gets irritating the more you know about him . in other words , he is like the collection of the worst parts of ben stiller , owen wilson , and billy crystal .
actually i prefer chaewon for seunggi than yoona , altough i really like yoona so much , but i think chaewon has chemistry with seunggi . . . . waiting for love forecast , i hope it better korean movie in this year : )

in all intents and purposes , the plot is not the important thing in love forecast ( 2015 ) . it is your typical childhood friends of the opposite gender stuck in the friend zone story with the obvious ending of no longer being in the friend zone .
in the actually story and structure of the movie , love forecast ( 2015 ) is quite similar to when harry met sally . . . ( 1989 ) . it is a story about two friends of the opposite gender falling in love told via an episodic narrative . also , both are more of a humorous drama or “dramadies” rather the outright comedies .
“moon as a woman has various attractive traits . so far , moon’s characters in her past works often involved her being serious and mature . however , in ‘love forecast , ’ moon will let out different charms that viewers had never seen before , ” he said .

if you’re like me , you’ve seen more than your fair share of rom - coms . you know , those movies with a pretty girl and a handsome guy who fall in love over a set of wacky circumstances . they travel through highs and lows together , and you with them . “love forecast” fits into that category and snuggles right in with the best of its comrades .

coal ' s forecast generation share rises from 30 percent last year to 31percent in 2017 . the projected generation shares for natural gas and coal in 2018 average 31 percent and 32 percent , respectively .
as a result , the equal weight put on the two leads does not match with the perspective of the movie . this would have been less of a problem if love forecast ( 2015 ) took the approach taken by when harry met sally . . . ( 1989 ) and kept the characters together in scenes as much as humanly possible . and , during its first act , love forecast ( 2015 ) does this as moon chae - won and lee seung - gi just hang around doing normal - ish stuff . as a result , the first act is the best part of the movie .

love forecast
never gets that obnoxious . joon - soo ( played by lee seung - gi ) and hyeon - woo ( played by moon chae - won ) are without a doubt friends . they ' re the ones who have to help each other out emotionally when their actual romantic relationships implode . the main irony
love forecast
goes over is the question of why they ' re only just friends , when they clearly have better long - term toleration for each other than their actual so - called serious partners , . . .

today among stiff competition , love forecast ( 2015 ) starring moon chae - won and lee seung - gi opened this week . and you can describe a lot of this movie using two hollywood movies of the last century as reference : when harry met sally . . . ( 1989 ) and there ' s something about mary ( 1998 ) .
with love forecast ( 2015 ) , the movie is not sure what question it is asking . it is not “ whether the lack of courage and communication is hindering my relationship ” . many romcoms asked this question . moon chae - won knows about his feeling and is just stringing him along basically as a gay best friend or a brother .
lee seung gi will romance moon chae won in an upcoming film that has been described as a realistic love story .

before i end this long review , let’s talk about the chauvinism of this movie . for a movie about movie about 20 somethings , love forecast ( 2015 ) does not actually have any sex in it . it actually tiptoes around it . the movie even has a scene where it seems like lee seung - gi is having sex but it is just a trick and he is doing something totally innocent .

( 2014 ) directed by park jin - pyo with lee seung - gi , moon chae - won , lee seo - jin , jung joon - young , go yoon , lizzy , . . . formerly known as
today ' s love
and
woman of three men
,
she who is loved by three men
( se nam - ja - eui geun - yeo , 세 남자의 그녀 ) synopsis like today ' s weather , this movie paints a romance of the delicate relationship between a man and a woman , . . .
what i am trying to say is that i know the romantic comedy genre of which love forecast ( 2015 ) falls into . it is said that romantic comedies are formulaic but this could also be interpreted as being concise . romantic comedies have a simple question in the form of an obstacle to ask in the movie . in the case of when harry met sally . . . ( 1989 ) , it was “ whether or not men and females could be friends . ”
i am looking forward to watching this movie . it is the first movie of jung joon young ~ i love jung joon young ~ cute and handsome . .
an appropriate ongoing metaphor , hyun woo’s weather reports are the indicators of emotions and situations to come upon our hero and heroine . when the going gets tough , hail pelts the kind - hearted but downtrodden joon soo . when the friends commiserate over broken hearts , it pours outside while they drown their sorrows in drinks ( she soju , he soda . ) weather has always been an indicator of emotion in film and television and to use it much more purposefully in “love forecast” is quite clever indeed .
it’s a great time to be an lee seung gi fan , soompiers . tap into your dose of cute , sweet , and romantic fun with director / writer park jin pyo’s 2015 rom - com “ love forecast , ” which stars lee seung gi and his “ shining inheritance ” co - star moon chae won . puppy dog lee seung gi doesn’t disappoint as a devoted young man in love and makes us more than anxious for his october return from the military . luckily , you can watch this film multiple times on viki if you’re missing him . i know i will . let’s check out five reasons why this movie needs to be on your watch list .
jung joon young ' s rep likewise stated ,
jung joon young will be taking on the challenge of a movie through ' today ' s love . '
from may 10 , 2017 to early november 2018 , weddings and other formal cultural or legal expressions of love will be difficult to attain . at the same time , light , friendly love will succeed with almost unexpected ease . marriage — i . e . , living together — will fill your heart with joy . but if you want that actual wedding ring , wed before may 10 ( not that likely ) or remain in love but wait until december 2018 onward to try on the ring .
“love forecast” delivers on all the juicy goodness that is requisite of a film . it isn’t meant to be a think piece , but a movie that carries you along for a satisfying emotional journey . lee seung gi is adorably charming as joon soo , who struggles to find a love that will accept him as he is , a kind - hearted man who wants to do right by his woman . moon chae won is winning as the free - spirited hyun woo , who , like joon soo , needs someone who accepts both her beauty and poise along with her potty mouth and raucous drinking habits . seeing these two very compatible opposites together is a delight that should not be missed .

today ' s love

i think it’s perfect for a date night . but it’s also a good movie for a girls’ night out . it’s a movie not just about love , but about friendship .
good luck
today ' s love
. . i hope for box office success . . good luck moon chae won , you ' re a very good actress . .
before mid - may , don’t bother looking for love in clubs , social groups or similar situations . instead , aim straight for deep romance and infatuation with one sweet person .
the great chemistry between lee seung - gi and moon chae - won of the movie ,
today ' s love
is garnering people ' s attention , . . .

omg ! first comment ! i hope that they will film soon . seung gi and chae won love team was cut short in bl but thankfully they are reunited here : ) )
according to a movie industry official on august 1 , lizzy has confirmed her casting in the movie “today’s love , ” and recently joined the rest of the cast and crew on set .
this is one the best love / marriage years of this early century ( for you ) . don’t waste it ! ( best way to waste it ? be erratic , unpredictable . )

the forecast for the reboot has only gotten scarier from there — at least domestically . one of the industry’s most respected polling services , nrg , downgraded its projection to $ 38 million last week and to $ 35 million on monday . such surveys can certainly be unreliable , but if nrg is correct , the mummy will lose this weekend’s domestic box - office race to holdover wonder woman .
a love story that can be seen in everyday life seemed interesting and it ' s a genre i personally prefer so i ' m anticipating it ,
he told the korea herald .
omg . . . i cnt wait ! ! ! ! i watched brilliant legacy last year n it was good . i really love moon chae won ' s acting . she is the best
for a 2 hour movie , love forecast ( 2015 ) feels long because of this extended 2 nd act . you could cut out 20 minutes of this movie in the 2 nd act without much problem . the more serious problem is with lee seung - gi and his character . lee seung - gi is not a bad comedy actor for what he does . this is his first starring movie role but he has done korean dramas including the king 2 hearts ( 2012 ) with super star ha ji - won who actually has a movie opening on the same day as this one .
the upcoming romance film portrays a story of a man and a woman falling in love after18 years of friendship . lee and moon plays the couple , depicting the realistic sides of a romantic relationships .
woo daebak ! ! ! can ' t wait for this movie . . so love the characters < 3 < 3 < 3 lee seung - gi & moon chae - won ! ! ! !
when joon - soo ( lee seung - gi ) falls in love he tries to give everything to the girl . even though he does all of that , he is the one that get dumped .
an elegant weather reporter on tv and a foul - mouthed boozer off , hyun - woo juggles three relationships with three men of different personalities . this is the
love story
of her life .
lizzy will be playing the bright and cheery min ah while jung joon young will play a character with a one - sided love regarding moon chae won , who plays the lead along with lee seung gi .
lee plays kang joon - soo , a sweet , unassuming elementary school teacher in love with his vivacious weather forecaster friend of 18 years , kim hyun - woo , played by actress moon chae - won .
lee seung gi has previously said he is very fond of acting in romantic comedies and the bigger the challenges a fictional couple faces , the better . the realism of this particular love story appealed to him .
local documentary sensation , “my love don’t cross that river” narrowly remains on the top 10 chart and now stands on a cumulative gross of $ 34 . 3 million since its release on 27 november last year .
moon chae won and lee seung gi had great chemistry back in 2009’s “ shining inheritance , ” even though they weren’t the main couple . that chemistry is reignited in “love forecast . ” it is the heart of the intrigue that centers around friends who turn into lovers . the two are charming as hyun woo and joon soo , who , for most of the movie , fight , drink , play , cry , whine , curse , and complain together — things you can only do with the closest of friends . an air of complete ease and comfort lingers around them , making them easy to watch and even easier to root for .
the new film “ today’s love ” has confirmed “ brilliant legacy ” co - stars lee seung gi and moon chae won as the two leads , and will head into filming at the end of this month .
hyun - woo is sent to seoul ( from jeju - do ) for education at a young age , and lives with the family of her mum’s friend . that’s where joon - soo and hyun - woo met ; and for the shy joon - soo , it’s love at first sight . young joon - soo picks up his courage to confess his love for hyun - woo in elementary school , but she rejects him then and there .
your charisma shines in june and july , but it doesn’t do a lot for love . you might start an affair with someone pleasant , polite and “hot , ” but if your intellect is not engaged , neither will you be months down the road . august to early october continues your romantic good fortune , but also raises friction in the home . sweet feelings arise october / november , and for some geminism will bring a deeply emotional love .
2017 is more friendly than purely romantic , but among the casual acquaintances you make this year , at least two could become love affairs . if you are married , this will be a year of family trips and adventures .

you are always ready for love , taurus , especially of the sensual kind . march / april might tempt you into a tawdry or extramarital attraction . your magnetism will be very high , and you could be approached by someone — perhaps an old flame . if someone wanders into your life between april 1 and 20 , or may 17 – 20 , a beautiful love might be possible . even in this one a few minor difficulties , delays or stumbling blocks might occur – don’t let them stop you .
all year , your best romantic prospects will emerge in clubs , politics , groups , and your best romance will be friendly , light , witty , flirtatious . still , even a “friendly romance” flares repeatedly with the heat of attraction , february to june , especially if an aries or gemini is involved . march and april are most intense , yet most indecisive ( perhaps an old flame enters , or a love rendezvous / climax keeps being delayed ) . you might declare , “i’m in love ! ” you might even marry . this spring’s relationship questions will be resolved by may / june — when , again , you might marry / begin cohabiting . june / july get very sexy . august offers gentle , mellow love ( and again the possibility of marriage ) .
frustrating relationships and weird bunny - hopping storylines aside , love isn’t a difficult show to watch . you can chalk it up to lee seung - gi and moon chae - won ‘s easy chemistry around each other , or the warm undertone of the movie itself .
in june / july your sexual magnetism surges , especially if you’re male . august / september bring a huge amount of friendly talks , short trips — and a friendly romance might pop up , too . october begins a whole year of splendid good fortune in love .

moon chae won told the korea herald .
i ' m looking forward to showing another side of myself through this film .
it ' s a reunion for the actors who appeared together previously in the 2009 drama

( se nam - ja - eui geun - yeo , 세 남자의 그녀 ) synopsis like today ' s weather , this movie paints a romance of the delicate relationship between a man and a woman . source
someone communicates affectionately in july ; you might also meet someone in a foreign country . august is for friends and flirtations . some of you will only now meet your true mate , probably when you attend a club , group affair , or are introduced by friends . this person has a very sensitive ego , so flatter him / her ( especially about sex or “looks” ) and you’ll earn loyalty and a generous love , right into early september . your charisma and energy soar in october , attracting even more admirers . slowly , now , your luck and thoughts begin to turn to money , not love . still , your sex appeal oozes in november — and an old flame or former friend returns in december .
until may 10 , the best route to happiness for you is to go out , approach others . even if you’re rejected , you’ll feel elated afterward ( mainly , because you had the courage to try ) . and not everyone will reject . from october into 2018 , a much more simple and true love is available ; and a wedding is very possible .
a major wish — perhaps two — will come true this year , sage . if one of those wishes is to find love , 2017 is very likely to fulfill it . one of the biggest problems in your life is the struggle to be decisive , to accept things as they are , and to know when you have a winner . often , these struggles are easily solved : you will almost always succeed if you do what you are most enthusiastic about , rather than following advice or doing the wise , boring thing . ( most sages would rather be cowboys than accountants . ) this especially applies to love this year . if you doubt someone , or suspect that your ardour is slightly less than you’d anticipated , don’t be afraid to cancel and move on .
your deepest love in 2017 might be for your children , as your home glows with new warmth , cheerfulness and affection . i didn’t include your mate , because many of you are caught between loving and rejecting your spouse — this trend , a long one ( 2008 - 24 ) will eventually cause your love and partnership to grow deeper and deeper , into new levels of feeling and knowing ; or you will eventually pull apart , like taffy . but in 2017 , you can easily make your home a place of happiness and optimism . you can strengthen your marriage by buying or renting a better home . from october onward ( deep into 2018 ) romance , charming kids and adventure draw the family together — plan a unique vacation , a family cruise or international voyage .
when joon - soo ( lee seung - gi ) falls in love he tries to give everything to the girl . even though he does all of that , he is the one that get dumped . hyun - woo ( moon chae - won ) works as a weathercaster . unlike her beautiful appearance , she acts excessively and talks in a tough manner . a romance blooms between these two people .
whenever elementary school teacher kang joon - soo ( lee seung - gi ) falls in love , he always gives too much of himself to the relationship . yet despite that , he ends up being the one getting dumped by his girlfriends . joon - soo has been friends for 18 years with kim hyun - woo ( moon chae - won ) , a weather forecaster whose beauty belies her witty tongue and aggressive manner .
still , you have a heart , and romance won’t be denied . your home is filled with sweet and sour emotions in february , tipping deeply to the affectionate side in march . you might be struggling with domestic matters all spring . this could signal some family opposition to your amour , especially if you’re young or a single parent . but march to may contains many compelling romantic openings — step in . much indecision hovers , but it will clear by may — and june or july could bring an avowal of love , even marriage . careful in august , when your sexual desires run hot . be ethical and ( health - wise ) self - protective . an old flame might re - appear . august through october raises many hints about wedding , or involvement with a foreign - born person . you might find love in school or transportation venues .
today ' s love
of lee seung - gi and moon chae - won is drawing expectations from the movie fans , as it will be the only romantic comedy movie this winter . lee seung - gi plays joon - soo , who is a right - minded and hardworking elementary school teacher , but is shy and inexperienced with women , thus has never been on a real date with a woman , . . .
you’re in the middle of a phase ( 2008 - 2024 ) that will bring you true love , scorpio . but for the past year , and continuing to may 10 , you’ll succeed best in romance if you aim for light , friendly amour , and give deep , intense infatuation a wide berth . after may , the pendulum swings to favour deep , world - well - lost romance once again — for seven more years .
jung joon yeong . . . ! i really love him ♥ he is a great singer to me and . . i hope he will be a great actor with this opportunity . . i hope that people from america feel attraction to joonyeong . please understand my grammar . . i am not good at english . he is so handsome , cute , cool , and lovely . i will expect join yeong ' s playing . . !
raine0211 is a lover of all things korean , especially k - pop , k - drama , and korean food . when she’s not writing for soompi , she’s playing the cello and singing . she happily indulges in all kinds of k - pop , but her biases are shinee , infinite , and vixx . she lives with her sister , her roommate elsa , and her two cats , timmy and momo , all of whom also love k - pop and k - drama .
this record surpassed opening - day scores of other successful romance movies , including introduction to architecture ( 4 . 11 million viewers total , 66 , 580 on opening day ) , all about my wife ( 4 . 59 million viewers total , 87 , 798 on opening day ) , and my love my bride ( 2 . 13 million viewers total , 88 , 406 on opening day ) , and is expected to be able to write new box office history of romance movies .
i watched this in hopes for some feel good , but in the end the female lead character is somebody extremely selfish and in that respect not so reliable , her suffering is a little banal , to be honest - being in love with an older married man , who is also a colleague . . . the male lead - his suffering is also a little banal . this was quite a disappointment , although i feel like the actors were trying quite hard to make it believable .
so excited for this movie ! ! ! if can only go to korea to see the premier night , i wll . but then i am from the phils . an i am an ardent fan of moon chae won . i love both of them . . . they have an awesome chemistry . i think lee seung gi and moon chae won both are a versatile actors , and will compliment each other ' s acting . . . i wish them the best for this movie !
omg ! ! ! just seeing the names of these 2 together makes my heart fluttered < 3 hwan - seung mi reunited again ! ! ! love them together and hope they end up together this time . . . and i ' m sure they have greeeaaat chemistry : ) hwanmi / chaegi / seungwon / joonhyun ( or watever you call lol ) fighting ! ! ! and my ultimate bias lee seung gi oppa fighting ! ! ! < 3 < 3 saranghaeee < 3 < 3

director : park jin - pyo genre : romance , comedy cast : lee seung - gi , moon chae - won , lee seo - jin , jung joon - young release date : january 15th , 2015 an elegant weather reporter on tv and a foul - mouthed boozer off , hyun - woo juggles three relationships with three men : the devoted jun - su , the awkward and dull hyo - bong and perfect , married dong - jin . this is the “love story” of her life .
2017 will be — already is — one of your luckiest years this decade . your optimism , cheer , friendliness , and your lively mind will attract both friends and “friendly lovers . ” you’ll do even better on the mating game if you exercise . if you’re hankering for a deep , full - surrender love , you’d better find it before may 10 . that day starts an 18 - month period in which light , social romance will thrive , but heavy , intense infatuation will meet delays , indecision and dead - ends .
in march / april you might be attracted to a “power figure , ” such as a boss or vip . this probably won’t go far , after a lot of thrilling indecision . an old flame might appear in april . all spring , your workplace might turn more social , creating romantic openings ; or , you might turn your social skills toward climbing the career ladder . may is very social , and very complicated . there are three “opportunities” — a verboten temptation , an affair with the boss , or a light , social love affair .
both of these kinds of romance can lead directly to marriage this year , but only the light kind will thrive after may . earlier , february through may bring frequent and sometimes intense marriage / co - habitation urges , both by you and the one you’re pursuing . march / april inject a note of confusion and indecision , perhaps because an old flame — or a new suitor — enter . everything clears by may : you know who you want , and you might even formalize everything with a wedding . june continues this love / wedding theme .
