Summary
ViuTV held its 2027 programme presentation at MacPherson Stadium in Mong Kok on October 21, where upcoming in-house dramas and variety shows were unveiled with an opening performance by ZPOT and a showcase of ViuTV productions and overseas awards. COLLAR members Ivy So (蘇雅琳) and Candy Wong (王家晴) each front a new drama, with Ivy appearing in the Hong Kong adaptation of What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim and Candy starring in the original idol drama Heartbeat Diary. Candy said she gave both her on-screen and real first kiss to Phoebus Ng (吳啟洋) during filming, while Phoebus said the kiss scene required many takes and became awkward for both of them. Ivy, meanwhile, said she was initially too shy to watch playback of kissing and intimate scenes with Anson Lo (盧瀚霆), and described the adapted bed-scene material as still intense despite changes from the Korean version
Key Points
- The October 21 ViuTV 2027 presentation in Mong Kok opened with ZPOT, followed by trailers for self-produced titles and a segment on overseas drama awards.
- Ivy said she had long wanted to film an idol drama, expects What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim to air in January, and especially enjoyed playful office scenes.
- Ivy said intimate scenes with Anson Lo included kissing and bed-scene material, and she felt more embarrassed watching them with family than filming them
- Candy said Heartbeat Diary is an original idol drama nearing completion, with emotional scenes that fulfilled her dream of leading such a project.
- Candy said Phoebus was the person who kissed her in the drama, making him both her first on-screen kiss partner and her real first kiss
Why It Matters
For Hong Kong viewers, the disclosures add early buzz to two locally made idol dramas that ViuTV is positioning as part of its 2027 slate. The cast’s unusually candid discussion of kissing scenes, playback anxiety and theme-song tie-ins also shows how broadcasters are using behind-the-scenes storytelling to market drama launches and cross-promote music releases.
