On August 23rd, CTI’s sixth drama, The Three-Sided Doctors <三面形醫>, held a press conference in Tsuen Wan’s Nina Tower. The drama stars Frankie Lam (林文龍), John Chiang (姜大衛), and Wilson Tsui (艾威) as three plastic surgeons who are conflicted with the morality of their occupation. According to CTI, The Three-Sided Doctors will be the first drama in Hong Kong television history to present a “realistic” portrayal of medical surgeries. Like the rest of CTI’s dramas, The Three-Sided Doctors will be filmed entirely with an HD ARRI camera and will be filmed in real hospital settings. The medical drama will come in two versions – a television drama version and a web drama version. The web version will reveal the actual processes involved in plastic surgeries. CTI hopes that The Three-Sided Doctors will inspire the public to reflect on the definition of “beauty,” while relating to their own values. The Three-Sided Doctors will be directed by Kwan Shu Ming (關樹明) and written by Choi Ting Ting (蔡婷婷), whose latest work with TVB was Forensic Heroes III <法證先鋒III>. Kate Yeung (楊淇), Sam Chan (陳宇琛), Benji Chiang (姜文杰), and Lesley Chiang (姜麗文) will also star in the drama.
CTI's really rolling on with their drama production! I would think they'd be more cautious about receiving their license in time though but it seems CTI is very confident they will. Frankie Lam back to lead role in HK drama, no wonder he left TVB when he got supplanted by Kevin Cheng the last time he was in a series (Forensic Heroes II) and underappreciated. So far no big popularity contests at CTI but it's still early lol
