時尚偶像劇場:無懈可擊之高手如林 Mandarin Chinese Drama: Unbeatable [2011]

"Unbeatable" is a popular Mandarin Chinese drama

Following are some clips of my favorite character "危笑(wēi xiào)" in this drama



"危笑(wēi xiào)"is a 26-year-old policeman "警察(jǐng chá)"

He falls in love with a successful businesswoman "女強人(nǚ qiáng rén )" named "叶柔(yè róu )"

Since this lady is older and much richer than him, he spent much time and efforts to pursue her.

Anyway, their romance / love story "愛情故事(ài qíng gù shì)" is quite touching... hope u like it

Today's Song: Honey (Cindy Wang)


看歌詞 學英文 (kàn gē cí xué yīng wén )
Read Chinese lyrics &  Learn some new words


It's not very easy to understand the meaning of Chinese lyrics (歌詞),
because some sentence structures used in lyrics are not used in real daily conversation,
but reading lyrics is still a good way to enlarge your vocabulary.
There is no need to understand the meaning of every sentence.
Just to feel the spirit of the song and to learn some new words from the song lyrics!  

Today's song is from Cindy Wang, a Mandarin Chinese pop singer.
Check it out!
