DARK ALLEY I was memorable because of many reasons. I was fortunate to have on board some of the best voices in MediaCorp Radio. Deming, one of the most sought after voiceover talents in Singapore, was the narrator for both dramas and Biyu put up an incredible performance as Liao Yulan. I regret that I couldn’t cast her in the new season, because I had no idea what to do with that character. Muahahaha. I mean, she was terminally ill and all. She wouldn’t be able to fit into the plot because… … *ahem* I can’t disclose what’s going to happen in Episode 3.

Another role that particularly stood out was Mrs Zhuang. Her “總有一天，你一定會有報應的！” became the bonafide tagline of the radio drama, and won Shenglian-Jie the Best Supporting Actress in the Golden Can Awards in May. Mr Zhuang, the man who broke her heart, finally makes his appearance in this season. Many thanks to Shengyang-Da Ge.

Synopsis:
Six months after DARK ALLEY I, Zhuang Jing faces another crisis. As the new Deputy Head of the Eye Centre, she is bombarded with queries from within and outside the hospital after a spike of infections in LASIK patients. At the same time, Chen Weilun is presented with another offer to head to Harvard Medical School- a dream yet to be fulfilled because of Zhuang Jing.

I should probably do a long winded entry on the concept and production process of this radio drama to entice you guys into tuning in at 9.30pm on Monday night… But I’m too tired lah.

Summary: The making of DARK ALLEY II is an incredibly tedious process… Though I enjoyed every moment of it.

I’m not sure if it’s good. But I did try to make it good. Muahaha.

I’ve been working non stop for twenty days already. *pants

DARK ALLEY II premieres this Monday. OMG. I have so much to say about this radio drama. I’ll save it for another entry…

Did the TV trailer and other miscellaneous shoots for SHA. My face needs some serious conditioning after enduring ultra thick makeup for three days in a week.

Was pleasantly surprised to be asked to host Kelly’s regional press conference. They had media coming in from all over Asia!

Thanks to Our Home for the pix.

I’m so busy!

Fortunately, there’re people to blog on my behalf.

Dark Alley II co-stars Dasmond as Dr John Wu, Head of the Neurology Department, and also Dr Chen Weilun’s buddy. (In case you don’t remember, I’m Dr Chen Weilun in the production.)

ZT plays one of the four major characters. Although named second male lead, the chicken rice seller in the hospital canteen gets more lines than Dr Chen Weilun!

I haven’t had the time to script the finale. I’ve made up my mind kill off one of the four leads, but yet to decide the manner death visits. Ideas, anyone?

Edit @ Thu 9pm: Thanks for your contribution. But erm… there might be some change of plans. I’m not sure if I want the character to be killed now… Argh!!! Should I do a tragic ending, or should I let the couple live happily ever after? Hmmmm…
