Zhenzhu in Little Nonya

was finally able to watch this show 2 nights ago, after the busy peak of filming for Dreams Come True came to a slowdown...

frankly, my curiosity was piqued when colleagues arond me started saying how evil i was i the show, and said i slapped Yueniang so many times... Seriously, i cant remember how many times i slapped her!!! That's why I decided to go recap by watching the show! =P

then again, I must admit that initially I was upset when most ppl seemed to concentrate on saying how evil Zhenzhu is; seemed to me that the little touches I added into the role was disregarded and I do feel a lil disappointed...

still, I am thankful, and proud that I did this role. In fact, I think I put in a lot of effort and it came out well. :)

Hi Eelyn... I dunno why, but I find it a little easier to see you play the evil gal (Kinship, Little Nyonya) than the good gal (as seen in Love Blossoms). Dont worry abt what others say abt you... look at the bright side, your acting is so convincing, you are able to make the viewers hate your onscreen role. I read from some report that Lin Meijiao kena scolded by angry aunties recently at some supermarket for her role as Guihua, yet she took the insults very coolly and thanked them for their support.

Anyway, thumbs up to you for your acting... oh, and I guess Im gonna see you and the others again in 2weeks time? I better remember to bring along that 8 days issue when the day approaches ;-)

Actually, as audience I do think that Zhenzhu is "evil" - or rather willful. But I think the script is also accountable for this.

As a N00B, I have no idea what goes on behind the scene but I do think that characters coud have been more multi-faceted. Characters seems to fit neatly into specific roles - the good, the bad etc.

If they showed Zhenzhu's nicer moments or give her deeper motivations, instead of having her act nasty to Yueniang, be shallow about marring Chen Xi, she would have been a more sympathetic character.

But no, I don't think she's evil-evil. Guihua is - but Lin Meijiao is superbly icy. From what I see, Zhenzhu seems to be predominantly spoilt. Is that what you were trying to convey?

P.S Thanks for the hard work!

I thought you did awesome in the Little Nonya. You were evil at times, but you also had added a vulnerable touch, which accented it really well. You are an amazing actress. Although you always play the "evil" roles really well, I think you did very well playing the nice, sympathetic role in Love Blossoms as well. I would love to see you take on a good girl role, I'm sure you wow us with that too.

Hi, hope this comment is not late, I just finish watching Little Nyonya lately, and you did a great job. You really did convince me into hating your role as ZhenZhu. Haha. Anyway, hope to see with a good person role next time for a change. Good luck and all the best to you. Support you always.
