一帘幽梦 & Pasta Zanmai @ One Utama



Song : 一帘幽梦 (Got English subtitles! Wheee!)
From the drama Dreams Link
又见一帘幽梦


This is the opening song for one of the current drama on AEC Channel, Dreams Link, or (New) Dream Behind the Curtain. It's a remake of a popular story by Qiong Yao. Who is Qiong Yao? She is a very popular novelist who writes very sad love stories.


Anyway, the synopsis of the story from a wiki link:

Zi Ling (lady on the right) is a dreamer who has always been overshadowed by her perfect older sister Lu Ping (lady on the left). For a long time, she's secretly been in love with Chu Lian (guy on the left), who also happens to be Lu Ping's boyfriend. Lu Ping is busy with her own dream of becoming a successful professional dancer and has little time for Chu Lian. Conflict arises when Chu Lian realizes that the one he truly loves is Zi Ling. An unfortunate accident forces a guilt-ridden Chu Lian to enter an unhappy marriage with Lu Ping, but he is unable to forget Zi Ling. Fei Yun Fan (guy on the right - neh... the HK actor!) is a mysterious, wealthy, and much older man who loves Zi Ling with all his heart. Hoping to move on with her life, Zi Ling gradually reciprocates Fei Yun Fan's affection.

Me, I just love the song. I think I remember that I first heard this song in the 70's (or was it the 80's) when I was a very small girl, during those Chin Han, Joan Lin Feng Jiao (Jackie Chan's wifey), Brigitte Lin Ching Hsia times... OMG... Does anyone still remember all the sad movies during those days??

On another note... Flyday Forn!
