What it’s about. Tang Ko (Feng Chun-Fan) is a martial arts director at a TV station. During the height of martial arts films, he was once very popular, but as the genre declined, so did his career. He became a man who could only talk about his past glories. Having long since divorced his wife, custody of his daughter Sin Yi (Ho Bik-Sing) was awarded to her mother. Tang himself is now dating a girlfriend, Li Yim-Hung (Ching Ho-Wai). One day his daughter arrives at his home, announcing that she wants to move in and live with him. After Sin Yi moves in, the father and daughter clash frequently and get into many amusing situations. Although the two share a genuine bond, Tang eventually comes to realise that he is not a capable father. Sin Yi ultimately moves back abroad to live with her birth mother. His girlfriend Yim-Hung also leaves him, marrying a wealthy man instead.
