Shirley Yeung Relies On Michelle Yim To Take On Villainous Role

In order to promote upcoming series "The Brink Of Law", Ron Ng and Shirley Yeung recently flew over to Malaysia specially for this function. Ron reveals that its quite rare for him to finish watching a series but because "Brink" was such an amazing series and is a drama in which his role experiences much internal struggle, he had finished watching it all. This series was Shirley's first time playing a villainous role and she says that her character's heart is very small and narrow and therefore, will do anything for the benefit of herself.

"There are times where my villainous look and expression isn't done well, but luckily there is the experienced Michelle Yim there to advise me and this allowed me to successfully portray this role making so many the audience loving yet hating me." Shirley smiles that if there is another chance, she would like to play a villain again and will not state which artistes she would like to work with, just letting things be naturally.

Having played an evil role before, Ron expresses that it's because of a good script - he doesn't mind playing whichever role because actors should not be limited. Ron and Shirley will be in a new series together which starts filming in January. This new series is about going back to the future and other cast include Sunny Chan and Myolie Wu. There is also a chance that Shirley will be playing Ron's mum!

Every actor would hope that receiving awards will encourage them to do even better. However, Ron believes that it is fate between awards and the artiste and have always been waiting to receive good scripts like "Heart Of Greed" and "Moonlight Resonance". He also says that every actor should do their very best in whatever script they receive and shouldn't force themselves to film series in order to win awards.

Shirley takes Michelle as an example, waiting 40 years to receive the "Best Actress" award, because she believes that as long as she does her best in every series, that the audience will soon realise how hard she is trying. Shirley expresses that her upcoming jobs is like taking a vacation. Other than filming travelling programs, she has been flying to different countries for promotion and says that her new series "Pages Of Treasures" will soon be airing in December - other cast include Eric Suen, Vivien Yeo, etc.
