In the recent years, Netizens have accused several TVB series to have plagiarized other works, just like the latest comedy series Awfully Lawful. Netizens said the series copied Korean drama A Gentleman's Dignity Jang Dong-gun. Although this is the case, the Awfully Lawful premiere still did pretty well, averaging 29 points and peaked at 30 points. No wonder the cast including Johnson Lee, Roger Kwok, Pal Sinn, Selena Li, Sharon Chan and Grace Wong all celebrated. The other night, the cast pitched in to buy 29 bottles of beer and gave them out to the guests in Lan Kwai Fong. The group attracted many people surrounding them to take pictures. The three 'matured men' Roger, Johnson and Pal were in fact still very charming, attracting many middle-aged women. The ladies -- Sharon, Selena and Grace -- weren't bad either, many foreign men took initiative to strike a conversation with them.
The night, the cast celebrated for the 29 points premiere rating, Roger was asked what he'll do if the ratings go even higher? Roger laughed: "The guys had already appeared nude in the series, so the ladies should do something! If the ratings go up to 35 points, the ladies have to do handstands with tank tops and shorts on." Netizens said the series copied a Korean drama? Roger defended: "Our series has a taste of HK with characteristics of American series as well as Korean drama music. Also, there is a Singaporean style too. Don't care whether if its a copy or not, the cast is different and the feeling is different. I think our combination created refreshing feelings and new sparks."
When speaking of attracting middle-aged women, Roger laughed: "Men like us are quite attractive, even if we're married." The Awfully Lawful ladies attracted foreign men? Sharon said: "I'm happy, proves we're attractive. Beautiful girls usually have these chances."
