The three of them grow up together. The grown up diligent Fuk Sang entered an average company and worked as electrical and pipe technician. However, Yee Sok was laid back and never worked long for any of his jobs, causing Fuk Sang to worry for him. Meanwhile Wai Ting always depended on Fuk Sang whenever she faces obstacles in relationship. Fuk Sang willingly helps them. Unfortunately, Fuk Sang's company was shut down causing him to work harder than ever to make a breakthrough in his career¡­

Yee Sok met Kuan Suet Yee (Michelle Ye) and became more hardworking than ever. Suet Yee came from a wealthy family, but after the passing of her parents, she was 'kicked' around by her relatives, suffering a hard life. Thus she vowed to excel above others since young. Later, she met up with Fuk Sang and the others. However, facing the many obstacles in life with her ambitious character, they faced some misunderstandings. Nevertheless, Fuk Sang continue to sacrifice himself to help others, the beauty of life is thus made out of warmth and tears¡­

Character Introduction
@ michelle-ye.com, Michelle Ye's Realm

Name: Kuan Suet Yee
Personality: Ambitious but has inner conscience

Young and pretty, she is the modern era career oriented and independent woman. Often framed to use her beauty to advance in career, in actual fact, she is tough on the outer but soft on the inner. She is embarrassed of herself, and keeps her thoughts to herself, lonely but has a kind inner heart. As she lived a wealthy childhood, she is not satisfied with simple life. Suet Yee actually comes from a wealthy family, being the only daughter, she is extremely loved by her parents. Her family is extremely happy. Unfortunately, her father's business failed and both her parents passed away leaving Suet Yee an orphan. She was taken care by her relative, but was often abandoned and pushed from family to family. Thus Suet Yee is no longer lively and becomes extremely disgraced of herself. In order to survive, she learnt to read people's expression and mind, at the same time walling herself away from others to protect herself. Her unhappy childhood effected how she dealt with matters as she grew up.

Suet Yee was raised by her aunt, she majored in marketing and vowed to have a career of her own. In order to progress with her career she used her beauty tricks at times but at the same time has her limit. Suet Yee got to know Yee Sok from work. He was deeply attracted to her and began to court her. Suet Yee is not moved by him but through him got to know Fuk Sang. Initially not having good impression on Fuk Sang, she got to know that he was also an orphan after her helped her out once from a trouble. They were later attracted to one another, and became very intimate buddies¡­

Imperfect Beuty (Main Theme) ~ Andy Lau

You and I
Will always remember
The moments in the past
There's no need to cry
No need to sorrow
Raise both your hands
You will then know
This world has everything
You desire for
It will come to you finally¡­

If there's no darkenss in the night
How can the exist¡­
If there's no sadness in stories
no obstacles
How can there be appreciation¡­

Thanks to the imperfect beauty
The surroundings became brighter
Adapt to the inconsistent weather
Smoldering both you and I
The shooting star twinkles past
Brightening up this world
Because of the imperfect beauty
The happy moments are relishing
Having fun even under the rain¡­
If life is perfectly beautiful
It's like an inner heart's movie
Never seeing the flow of tears
How is it possible to touch your heart

While you and I
look back at the paths we took
What is there to search
How to pass
Please open your eyes
And take note
The matter you and I love
What can't be attained
At least we've witnessed so

If there's no darkenss in the night
How can the moon exist¡­
If there's no sadness in stories
no obstacles
How can there be appreciation¡­

Thanks to the imperfect beauty
The surroundings became brighter
Adapt to the inconsistent weather
Smoldering both you and I
The shooting star twinkles past
Brightening up this world,
Because of the imperfect beauty
The happy moments are relishing
Having fun even under the rain¡­
If life is perfectly beautiful
It's like an inner heart's movie
Never seeing the flow of tears
How is it possible to touch your heart
It's like an inner heart's movie
Never seeing the flow of tears
How is it possible to touch your heart

缺陷美 (主题曲) ~ 刘德华
歌曲：缺陷美 | 曲:罗文欲 | 词:林夕

有你和我
仍然记得
过去闪亮过
哭什么
都不难过
请伸出两手
然而你知
这个世界有几何
想得到什么
便会一一得到过

要是长夜从来没有黑暗
那会有月亮
要是故事从来没有哀伤
没过场
那会鼓掌

多得有 缺陷美
身边景物越明媚
越要习惯无常的天气
燃烧了你我
流星那样闪过
给这世界美丽便已值得欢喜
只因有 缺陷美
开心短暂亦回味
大雨下也能随心嬉戏
如果美满人生
就如一格内心戏
不见半寸眼泪落满地
怎感动到你

趁你和我
巡回世间到处的路过
找什么
想怎样过
请张开眼睛
随时摄低
你与我爱看的事
得不到什么
至少好好观光过

要是长夜从来没有黑暗
那会有月亮
要是故事从来没有哀伤
没过场
那会鼓掌

多得有 缺陷美
身边景物越明媚
越要习惯无常的天气
燃烧了你我
流星那样闪过
给这世界美丽便已值得欢喜
只因有 缺陷美
开心短暂亦回味
大雨下也能随心嬉戏
如果美满人生
就如一格内心戏
不见半寸眼泪落满地
怎感动到你
就如一格内心戏
不见半寸眼泪落满地
怎感动到你

Once Careless (End Theme) ~ Nicola Cheung

Once careless
The fire sparks
The feeling is perfect
The atmosphere aroused
Seems like the atmosphere in a movie
My heart raced madly
Heating up in the high temperature
Not sure of the ending of this story
Just don't go don't go don't go

Don't wish to imagine
Without realizing
It ablaze from head to toe, this love
Sacrificing everything
Don't wish to compare
Forget everything, allow my heart to lead
To Love hahaha¡­.

Don't wish to know
If this is over the limit
Love needs not to be clear
To be just with you all day long
It okay to stir trouble
Say That I'm Childish
This is how I am
To win something, let others decide
Who has really loved before
Really felt before
This taste of ocean deep love
Dont wish to imagine
Without realizing
It ablaze from head to toe, this love
Sacrificing everything
Don't wish to compare
Forget everything, allow my heart to lead
To Love hahaha¡­.
To Love hahaha¡­.

Don't wish to imagine
Without realizing
It ablaze from head to toe, this love
Sacrificing everything
Don't wish to compare
Forget everything, allow my heart to lead
To Love hahaha¡­.
To Love hahaha¡­.

一不小心 ~ 張燊悅

一不小心
擦着了火
感觉很完美
情节像制自了
某戏段里某气氛
心在狂跳
在燃烧中的高温
不清楚这故事到那结果
Just don't go don't go don't go

不假思索
不知不觉
由头燃烧至落脚端 堕入热恋感觉
不惜一切
不想估计
忘形由心引导发挥
To Love hahaha?

不想知道
这态度会有过火
爱情是不需要 不需要 探索得清楚
天蒙光到晚上与你赤裸
不紧要 不紧要 那里闯祸
Say That I'm Childish
我就是这样
如果争取东西须别人决定
谁又曾真正爱过
去感觉过
什么刻骨爱情滋味

不假思索
不知不觉
由头燃烧至落脚端 堕入热恋感觉
不惜一切
不想估计
忘形由心引导发挥
To Love hahaha?
To Love hahaha?

不假思索
不知不觉
由头燃烧至落脚端 堕入热恋感觉
不惜一切
不想估计
忘形由心引导发挥
To Love hahaha?
To Love hahaha?

How Exposed (End Theme) ~ Nicola Cheung

Having fun everywhere, pretending that I am blur,
It's hard to guess if you've guessed my true exposed self,
At the highest point in the world, viewing the path below,
I can see you have yet shaved,
Searching everywhere, mystifying me,
Stealthily peeking my exposed emotions,
Sealing and hiding, intentional pride,
I will blame you seeing it too early¡­
Only needing you to pace with me, I will be head over heels,
Only needing you to embrace me, the flowers in world blooms,
You're in my heart, I wish you to tell me "Perfect!"
I wish to have you greet me "Morning!" every morning,
Falling apart, needing none rewards,
But worrying you may discover my exposed thoughts
But I've better ways at dealing
I'm lazy to deal, is there any way,
Coming and going, seems like my passion,
Who has the love by their side,
Thousands of unease, one gap apart,
Who's with who along the way, it seems just nice¡­
HEY! Even if it turned dark in a moment,
The sky at night is more romantic, OH¡­.

怎暴露 (片尾曲) ~ 張燊悅
作曲：張燊悅 | 填詞：因葵、張燊悅

到處吃喝 假裝我很糊塗
難猜測你猜測我真相怎暴露
自世界最高 俯瞰公路
也會看見你 縱未剃鬚
到處探索 最得我很深奧
而偷偷看一下卻感到好暴露
掩飾閃縮 刻意驕傲
我更會怪你 一早見到......
祇需有你與我踏步 我會神魂顛到倒
心丹釦A已有力量 抹去痛苦煎熬

祇需有你與我抱著 世界滿是花草
心中有你 很想有你 可否對我說聲「好！」
很想有理 朝朝對我說聲：「早！」
跌跌碰碰 不需半點酬勞
唯擔心你識穿我想到好暴露
但我有更高 相處之道
我也會懶理 有沒有譜
進進退退 彷彿我的喜好
誰身邊有戀愛很羡慕
千般忐忑 相隔一步
沿途誰和誰 剛剛正好......
HEY！就算一息間變夜晚
夜晚的天空更浪漫 OH......

I didn't really watch this properly either. Did she have a love storyline with Benny but ended up with Sammul but she liked Gordon?

Well, Benny was attracted to her initially, and his actions toward her were cute, calling her "female goddess" and all, but he actually loved Nicola's character.

Gordon and Michelle loved each other, had their share of happy times but then she went w/ Sammul. I can't remember exactly what happened, but it might have been an understanding. Their personalities were also very different. I do remember a scene where she was mad at Gordon for not holding on to her or something like that. I guess that Gordon seemed too careless towards her, but he actually loved her a lot, so that was kind of sad. But he and Kenix were a touching pair, too Anyway, it all worked out happily as Michelle got over her problems w/ Sammul and they ended up together.

[MYR Admin]

Yeah, hehe basically, mellowlove did a perfect job summarizing everything, but the couple I love most is Gordon & Michelle, more than Kenix, maybe cause Michelle is the first girl Gordon really loved and vice versa

[Dots]

Everybody says she had poor acting skills here.....
I was reading the spcnet reviews for EH and most of them say is that the poor acting girl in reaching out. Every body was surprised coz her acing skills in EH was 100000000 TIMES BETTER. someone even sed....

When she was in reaching out, her acting skills were 0% but overnight, it turned 100%

Is it true her acting wasn't very good in here?

[Katniss]

I thought her acting in Reaching Out was decent. I swear lots of the times, people condem newbies, especially when they play a role that gets in the middle of the main lead's relationship. But yeah of course she improved in EH, she was the lead and her role had more depth, but I don't think her acting sucked that much in RO.
