Setting out on their quest for fame and fortune, three female TV stars of different backgrounds are resolved to achieve their dreams at any price. But after so many ups and downs in their acting careers, they finally come to discover the secret of true beauty.

Driven by sheer vanity, Ko Ching Man (Kate Tsui) takes part in a beauty pageant despite the strong opposition of her mother, a long-retired actress named Cheung Lai Hung (Kingdom Yuen), and leaps to stardom soon after winning the championship. Rising actress Tong Ho Yee (Sharon Chan) feels threatened by Man and decides to join another TV station to look for a breakthrough, which is not supported by her production assistant friend Deacon Chong (Lai Lok Yi). Leading actress Keung Chin Fung (Christine Ng) used to be a bitter rival of Hung. Realizing that Man’s acting career is taking off at top speed, Fung means to approach her as a mentor, through which she hopes to drag the girl into her moral downfall bit by bit. Desperate for everlasting beauty, Fung injects herself with illegal substances in an attempt to slow the aging process. But things do not really go as planned and her face starts to change in shape. Her advertising deal with a cosmetics company is subsequently canceled and Man has soon replaced her as the new product endorser. Even the Award of Best Actress, which she has won for years, is slipping out of her hands.

Fussy CHA CHA CHA
Flirtatious Tango
A Mixture of Dancing Harmony

Ballroom dancing emphasizes rhythm and mutual trust between the partners. If we can apply the same philosophy to our daily communication practices, we are likely to find ourselves in greater harmony and our lives will surely be enriched.

Dance lover Lee Sum Ying (Bernice Liu) is going to audition for a place in the Hong Kong Dance Company. Before the audition starts, she bumps into her brother Le Lik Keung (Wayne Lai) and his colleague Ching Ka Tsun (Steven Ma) at a supermarket, where she is accidentally run over by Tsun’s trolley and hurts herself. Due to her leg injury, Ying does not perform well in the audition and fails the assessment. At the invitation of Tsun’s mother, Ying goes to teach Latin dance at a local community center, in the hope that she can save up enough money for further studies abroad. Ying has a very warm personality and is well-liked by many of her students. Her popularity eventually lands her a teaching job at a dance workshop, which makes another dance tutor Ching Ka Man (Fala Chen) incredibly jealous. Man dislikes Ying so much that she means to make things difficult for her in every possible way.

Yeung Sze Man (Kate Tsui), the daughter of Tsun’s boss, is appointed to take charge of the company. In order to improve staff morale, Man has announced a series of reforms. She needs her staff to learn dancing so that they can get more physical exercise. Ying is hired as the dance teacher of Tsun and his colleagues. Tsun, who has some knowledge in dancing, has soon resumed his interest in this expressive form of art. Ying and Tsun have gradually developed a close bond with each other and even decided to take part in an international dance competition as partners. But the pair’s relationship is put to the test when Tsun and Keung later fall out over business matters. The discord between the two men has put Ying in dilemma …

Synopsis:

Wind and Clouds Change
Mountains and Rivers are Chaotic
Secretly, the Heavens Control Destiny
After all Chance has been Calculated
Why not Return to the Way of the Righteous

Yip Yeung (Benny Chan Ho Man) is very interested in the “Back Pushing Diagrams” (The Book of Destiny), which according to folk legend can foretell the future and help people to find luck and avoid tragedy. Yuen Hei (Steven Ma Chun Wai) capitalizes on this opportunity and tries to make money from him with a fake set of diagrams, but he is discovered by Lee Sing Tin, who has changed his name to Wan Chung Hok (Yuen Wah).

It turns out that he once presented the diagrams to the Emperor Zhao Kuangyin (Kwok Fung), helping him gain his throne. With a deep understanding in foretelling destinies, he accepts Yeung and Hei as his students and hopes to pass on his lifelong knowledge. Yeung later also becomes the student of another master Nam Fong Man (Lau Kong). Man uses Yeung in hopes of seizing back the imperial throne.

Yeung finds out from Man that he is a descendant from the last dynasty’s royal family. As a result, he uses his prediction skills in a pledge to turn back the Sung emperor and take back his own right to the throne; however, no matter how much he tries to calculate his destiny, he only meets with a tragic ending…

Credits: Em from TVBspace

Adjustments to the synopsis given by TVB (from K for TVB):
Yuen Wah did not take Benny as his student. Benny wanted him to but this did not end up happening. Benny also does not become the student of the evil fortunte teller guy (Nam Fong Man).
