Philip Ng and Moon Lau named most popular on-screen couple in Yahoo poll
HONG KONG: Stars of the TVB series A Fist Within Four Walls Philip Ng and Moon Lau have been named as the Most Popular On- Screen Couple in a Yahoo Asia poll.
For months, they had been overshadowed by the other onscreen couple from the same series, Ruco Chan and Nancy Wu.
Their ecstasy for having triumphed was apparent.
Gushed an excited Moon: “We can feel the love from both online and offline, and I’m happy that the warmth still hasn’t dissipated yet. Very happy!”
On whether she’d be happier if they were a couple in real life, Moon was quick to retort: “We have to separate drama from real life.”
Philip insisted that he and Moon are only good friends, but is happy that fans love their teaming up. Added Philip: “That means we’ve done well.”
In real life, Philip had been dating actress Linda Chung until she abruptly broke off the relationship and married a chiropractor in Vancouver. That probably rubbed Philip the wrong way.
But he’s bouncing back, with the trophy testifying to his never-say-never spirit.
During the Christmas season, Philip shall will be filming a scene with martial arts actor Donnie Yen for the movie Chasing the Dragon.
Philip, who recently injured his right hand, disclosed: “I’m not fully healed yet. I hurt my hand on December 1, and it takes at least 35 days to heal. I did shoot some action scenes yesterday. I tried to use my left hand and feet as much as I could.”
