Better known as Ben Ben and Ling Ling to fans, these two were the characters that started the whole Rayolie fandom, together with the use of "-olie" in Myolie's pairings. Undoubtedly, they gave life to the show, and proved to be a well-balanced, and supportive couple. In many ways, Ben and Ling are complete opposites with each other, yet they managed to form a firm friendship from the start.

Ben is a rookie lawyer, as evident from his casual personality and style of dressing. Ah Ling, eternally dressed in strict office-wear, is comparatively more uptight and professional. Yet both of them share a strong sense of a justice, and a heart of gold. When they are together you can't help but notice how natural and comfortable they are with one another's presence. Yes, there's no expensive flowers, or costly restaurants, but that is precisely why they are never pressured to pretend to be someone else when they are together.

Ben of course, was the epitome of a "Mr. Nice Guy". Who could forget the heartbreak(s) that he had to face because of his unrequited love for Ling? Yet despite that he still valued her happiness above else. In the meantime his only solace is the support and strong friendship Ling offers him, especially during the one time he uncharacteristically (yet understandably) becomes defeated. Eventually, his patience, and self-sacrificial ways pay off, and the series ends with an incredibly adorable and sweet coupling that is Ben Ben and Ling Ling.

3. Zhan Bong and Bing Yee (The Drive of Life)

Decided to put up a happy pic, because those happy days, and playful moments were most certainly crushed by the end of TDOL. Therefore we have to find all ways and means to balance out the severe disappointment in the face of such turn of events. Despite that though, we can take heart that they both gave romance a chance.

Bing Yee's feelings for Zhan Bong was one that slowly evolved from exasperation, to admiration, and finally to love. Most people would compartmentalize Bing Yee as just an uptight secretary, but she was more than that. She had heart, and drive, and definitely a good dose of spunk as well. Her little bickering sessions with Zhan Bong were totally entertaining. Seeing that TDOL is actually the most recent series Raymond and Myolie filmed together, you get a sense that they gelled without even having to try.

Did Zhan Bong's appreciation for Bing Yee really turn to love? The show would like us to think not. But nevertheless, BongYee was definitely one of the more memorable couples on the show.

4. Hiu Sing and Ji Kwai (The Master of Tai Chi)


Hiu Sing and Ji Kwai, where do we even start? They are by far the most beautiful pair that Raymond and Myolie ever gave life too. The intensity of emotions, and the sparks between the two were amazing. SingKwai's relationship was certainly one full of twists and turns, but in their imperfection, they formed a pairing of strong and lasting love.

Headstrong Ji Kwai was looking for love in an entirely wrong place. For most of the show we saw her trying to fight for a love that never was to be hers in the first place. Ironically, while she was the one who said that gratitude did not equate to love, was it not her gratitude for Mo Ma that blinded her into thinking she had found the one for her? In trying to hurt others, she ultimately hurt herself the most.

Hiu Sing started the show a talented but immature rich man's son. Pity for Ji Kwai, eventually evolved into love, one so strong that he could not turn his back on it. Even after multiple rejections, Hiu Sing's heart was for Ji Kwai only. In this sense, Ji Kwai and him are very similar, since once they decide to give their heart, they do so entirely.

It was Ji Kwai's words of comfort and encouragement that kept Hiu Sing striving to fulfill his father's wishes. And despite the fact that she used him, ironically, she still had his best interests at heart. Ji Kwai's fire was a great push factor for a Hiu Sing who would otherwise not have as much foresight, or drive.

Hiu Sing on the other hand, was the one true constant in her life. No matter how she hurt him, and no matter how she strayed for him, he would be the first to protect and the last to judge. His steadfastness never wavered, but because it was so great it did cause him to doubt himself. Hiu Sing's hurts caused him to stray and hurt others, but by then Ji Kwai was there to show him the same patience and kindness he showed her.

Hiu Sing and Ji Kwai are like two children who slowly and painfully learnt to grow. But without sorrow, how would you know pure joy? Without trials, how would you know of true love? At the end of TMOTC, SingKwai truly proved that they were meant for each other.


So thank you Tommy Leung, for all these Rayolie series. Shall leave you guys with a picture from Eternal Happiness, the only Rayolie show not produced by Tommy Leung. And was incidentally the first show they ever starred together in.
