韩琪真个性贤淑、善解人意，自从她和杜祥益的女儿杜彤彤出世后，韩琪真便放弃珠宝设计师的工作，当个全职的家庭主妇。

日复一日，杜祥益创作的灵感和时间渐被生活埋没，数年后，杜祥益日益消沉，当初的雄心壮志消失殆尽，怀才不遇的忧郁与愤懑日渐膨胀，他借酒消愁，后来甚至打骂妻女出气。

某 夜，杜祥益喝醉了，又开始对韩琪真拳脚相向，韩琪真挣脱魔拳跑了出去，实在无法继续容忍杜祥益的暴行。韩琪真下定决心离开杜祥益，她趁杜祥益入睡后，收拾 行李、打算带女儿离开，没想到被杜祥益发现了，他发了疯似的殴打韩琪真；六岁的彤彤见到残暴的父亲殴打妈妈，惊吓大哭，韩琪真护女心切，随手抓起重物朝杜 祥益的后脑击下，杜祥益顿时瘫倒在地上。

韩琪真以为自己错手打死了杜祥益，惊慌失措之余抱了彤彤到COCO家避难。COCO（李心钰饰）担心韩琪真闯下大祸，建议她报案自首。后来两人回到杜家，发现家中一片絮乱，地上善有血迹，尸体却不知所踪……

另一方面，杜祥益在韩琪真离开醒了过来，跌跌撞撞走出门后，竟然滚下山坡，在桥底昏迷了两天，醒来后他的脑袋一片空白，他竟然失忆了！

杜祥益连自已的名字也记不起来，后来他被一位好心的拾荒老人－张伯（陈澍城饰）收留协助张伯在结霜桥摆卖旧货，开始他另一段新的人生。

失忆后的杜祥益完全变成另一个人，过去的暴行、恶习和消沉的意志似乎跟记忆一起埋葬。全新的他是个诚恳、勤奋和善良的年轻人。刚开始，张伯怀疑杜祥益是他的儿女所派来的“卧底”。经过一段时间的相处后，才发现杜祥益真的失忆了，对他的态度也由冷漠转为亲密。

杜祥益通过张伯认识了谢思茹（郭妃丽饰），彼此都留下良好的印象。

SPH You Weekly Columnist Pass Insulting & Unnecessary Comments On SuperBand Contestant !

24 June 2008

SPH You Weekly Magazine in their latest Edition this week published a comment written by a regular columnist who pass insulting and unnecessary remarks on a particular SuperBand 2 group and went on to say about their ' inappropriate ' dressing and the ' motive ' they have for the way they dress that day during the SuperBand 2 Top 16 Contestants' first outdoor performance at IMM on Channel U Always Fun Party on 1 June 2008 .

The comments made by the particular columnist was really needless and uncalled for ! Not only was he very explicit and detailed in reference to the particular band in question , he went on to imply that the ' motive ' for the particular female contestant' dressing that day was actually to catch the attention of reporters and hoping to make headlines in the major local newspapers the next day so as to gain publicity and further increase their popularity !

Not only was he so unforgiving in his comments , he further went on to say that the particular female contestant' plan must have failed as after several checks made by this columnist , to his utter shock and surprise , there were no reports or any mention whatsoever at all on the female contestant sexy and inappropriate dressing on the various local newspapers the next day ! From the tone and the expression made in his column , the columnist sounded as if he was very disappointed with the local media for not reporting on this incident !

The comments made by this particular columnist was not only uncalled for , but also a total disrespect and disregard for that particular SuperBand group ! The comments were totally unnecessary and seriously , the words used in his ' speech ' was really rude and insulting to the contestants' integrity and reputation ! Although the columnist did not make a very direct reference to THE particular SuperBand group in question , and instead used a pseudonym , but the name he used and the description he made was so detailed and explicit that it became so very obvious as to which particular group he was actually referring to , especially for those who were there at the Event on that day at IMM itself !

As the famous saying goes ' Keep the comments to yourself ' . Or rather ' Silence Is Golden ' .... In this case , silence is really golden indeed !

My ' advice ' to this columnist : If u have nothing better to say , don't say ! Don't make inflamatory comments or remarks if u have REALLY nothing constructive to say !

* Note : For those who really have no idea of what I am talking about , please purchase a copy of this week's You Weekly Magazine ( Issue No. 133 ) to find out for yourself ( page 4 ) !

Jolin , Luo Zhi Xiang , Rainie Yang , Energy To Perform In This Year's Summer LIVE Concert 2008 !

23 June 2008

（吉隆坡）2008年《夏日8度演唱會》移師到馬六甲舉行，隨著“奧運風”的來襲，今年大會主題定為“震動全城GO”，主辦單位更邀請到台灣樂壇最動感、最具人氣的偶像歌手，包括蔡依林、羅志祥、楊丞琳、黃立行、蕭敬騰、Energy以及元味覺醒參與演出。

屆時，參與演出的歌手將會以“動感+活力”出擊，勢為大馬歌迷帶來一個動感十足的夜晚。《夏日8度演唱會》將於8月23日，星期六晚上8時，在馬六甲MITC戶外停車場盛大引爆。除了台灣眾歌手外，大馬方面，參與的歌手則有三季《絕對Superstar》男女冠軍，包括黃俊源、陳詩莉、許俾文、陳慧恬、郭曉薇及徐仕豪。

記者會上黃俊源、陳詩莉、陳慧恬、郭曉薇及徐仕豪被主持人詢問想如何“突圍而出”時，陳慧恬突發奇想說：“唱破音。”沒有料及主持人李欣怡突然幽了好拍檔葉俊岑一默，笑說：“這個就要跟葉俊岑學習了。”言意之下，難道是暗示葉俊岑是“破音”大王？

小豬、JOLIN同台不合唱

亞洲流行天后蔡依林與“緋聞男友”羅志祥將結伴前來大馬參與2008年《夏日8度演唱會》，不料難得同台演出的他們，此次卻沒有同台飆歌飆舞的互動合作。羅志祥週四（19日）通過越洋電訪披露，此次他不會與蔡依林同台演出，主要原因是他們於2005年在檳城舉辦的《夏日8度演唱會》上已經同台合作過，所以希望此次能夠帶給大馬觀眾不同的感覺。

雖然與蔡依林同台合作無望，不過小豬（羅志祥暱稱）卻強調，倘若有機會，他很期待能夠與黃立行同台合作，一起飆舞。他笑稱：“黃立行的舞蹈實在太厲害了。” 首次前來大馬參與這場演唱會的黃立行也透過預錄視像坦言很期待此次大馬之行。“我沒有前來過大馬宣傳，聽說大馬的天氣很炎熱，女生都會穿得很辣、很性感，希望當晚的表演可以與辣妹們多互動。”

Stars Risk Exposing Themselves At IMM Concert With Mysterious Strong Winds Blowing !

5 June 2008

It was a scene close to the one that happened recently to Hongkong Singer - 徐子珊 while she was performing during the Beijing Olympics ' Special Variety Show Programme in Hongkong . Her skirt was seen being blown up by strong mysterious wind midway through her performance while she was singing . Her skirt flew up , revealing the red undies underneath . Although , she struggled to keep her skirt down , the damage has already been done !

While local female stars could be thankful that none of this had happened to them last Sunday while performing at Channel U Always Fun Party in IMM , mysterious strong winds was seen constantly blowing at the ladies who were wearing skirts and the wind was threatening to blow up their skirts , with the stars at risk of exposing themselves !

Just ask those who were there last Sunday for Channel U - Always Fun Party Concert at IMM Garden Plaza , while it was indeed an evening to remember with stars belting out numerous popular songs in the four hours Mega Concert , it was also a case of a ' feast for the eyes ' too ... AT least for some of the fans and performers involved ...

For , it was noticed that there seemed to be a fan being placed at the edge of the stage and the wind from the ' fan ' was blowing directly towards the stage where the stars were standing .... Some of the female performers who were being interviewed by the hosts Sugi and Lin Peifen before they were due to perform could be seeing desperately trying to keep their skirts down as the wind threatened to expose everything that they were wearing underneath ....

Even the host Tian Ming Yao was heard saying something like ' Where was the strong wind coming from actually that kept blowing at the ladies ' skirts ? Just before he and Peifen was to introduce the next band on stage - Yi Xuan Feng to perform .... If u would remember ... Those who were there last Sunday ....

Indeed , questions must be asked really as to why nothing was being done to rectify the situation when this was already seen happening midway during the early part of the show ? Although at the end of the day , the fans did not really get to see anything ' out of the ordinary ' , the stars must have feared what had unfortunately happened to the Hongkong singer would happen to them ! They feared the the risk of exposing themselves with the mysterious strong wind continuously blowing at their skirts !

So , why was there a fan being placed at the edge of the stage blowing at them ? Or was there any in the first place ? If so , why was it being placed there at that position ? Or rather , indeed , where was the wind coming from then ?
