Lady Sour (2014)

I found this drama on TVB Viet (so it was dubbed into Vietnamese). I always liked Myolie Wu and Ron Ng, so my review might be a bit biased.

This drama is based on Cho Tsing (Myolie) and her mom Bai Yuet. They are con-artists that roam around trying to make ends meet while searching for her father. They end up in their hometown where they bump into old friends the Kai siblings (Ron Ng and Jade Leung), as well as Cho Tsing falling in love with the heir of the Tsin Family (Him Law). Although her mom urges her not to, she wants to marry into their family and has to overcome struggles w/ her in-laws forcing her husband to take on a 2nd wife. She comes up with all kinds of schemes with Ron Ng, only to end up divorced and later falling for Ron. In the midst of this, her father returns but he's an evil eunuch and sought to ruin both the Cho Tsing, her mom, and the Tsin family (he's after their land).

Overall, the drama wasn't terrible. I was working from home and would put the audio on and listen. This drama is quite comedic as well. I found myself cracking up a bit too loudly while watching. I liked that the love triangle/square wasn't as intense as other HK Dramas. I find myself getting worked up sometimes watching other HK drama but this one didn't do it to me. I would watch it again.
