    According to the Taoist saying, after going through years of cultivation, one will undergo a new change and be reborn as a new person. This year is coincidentally Myolie's 10th year in this industry. She had taken part in the Miss HK, acted in many dramas, and even joined the music industry last year. She resembles someone whom experiences years of cultivation and practice, and continually transforming herself. The past, young bud had now grown up.

    Likes To Sing

    Ever since taking part in the Miss HK competition, throughout the 10 years, Myolie had a huge transformation of herself. First, she stepped into the TV industry, and acted in many dramas. Then last year, she went onto joining the music industry. For this transformation, she had actually already got into contact with singing during her schooling days. "During my secondary school days, I was the soprano in the choir. Took part in many competitions too." For last year's album, the songs chosen were mainly the light-hearted genre. But the new album, set to release in the coming October, will have a difference in song genre from the first album. And the most surprising thing is that Myolie can work with Julian Cheung, whom hasn't released an album for a pretty long time. "For the new album, I've worked with various musicians. Like Peter Kam. He custom-made a song for me. It's a moderato love song. Hope that the music fans will like it."

    Clear on Targets

    From 'a piece of blank paper' to developing acting and singing now, Myolie has been in this industry for 10 years. It's neither a long, nor short period of time. She had quite a lot of feelings on this, "I'm financially stable, plus I've tried many new things before. Once a person's matured and clear on her targets, she has confidence that she has gone on the right path!" She described how she was like when she filmed dramas in the past, "Would charge forward non-stop." Therefore, in future, she will reduce her drama filming, and focus on doing what she likes.

    "Hope to reduce my number of TV series by half. Filming 2 to 3 dramas a year will be enough!" Perhaps we might not see Myolie on our TV screen so often, but we can be certain that her acting skills by then will be more in depth. This is because she's very particular about her performance. Just like this day when she's doing this photo-shoot, the TV was airing her drama, she would watch on intently. Other than laughing out loud, each time when she saw herself speaking the lines on TV, she would pay attention to it immediately. This would make people imagine how serious and passionate she's to her work.

    Behind That Optimism

    There's nothing to suspect about Myolie's passion towards her work. Adding on with her optimistic and cheerful appearance, this gives people a positive feel about her. But she said that she's a pessimistic person, and this certainly makes people surprised. "It's the character that's being acted out in the drama. Different from the reality. On the surface, I may look like I'm easily happy, but actually, I'm a pessimistic person. Sometimes shy, and often thinking about a lot of things......" But, Myolie is definitely an independent lady with her own opinions. This might have some connection with her childhood. "I went overseas for further studies when I was 12. Need to know how to take care of myself back then." She recalls her schooling days back in Ireland, saying that she's a poor student. But she missed the hostel life as well. "Back then, I was really poor. Only dared to buy the cheapest stuff. In order to save money, I walked out to the city......" She said that she got into this industry due to the Miss HK competition, and till now, she felt that everything had been smooth-sailing for her, because she has found something which she likes to do. "I'm very fortunate!" She said it with full gratitude.

    Post-Interview

    For a person, there can be a huge difference in the span of 10 years, or nothing changes during this period of time. Myolie never thought of trying to take shortcuts to gain success. She sets her targets, and believe in herself. From joining the TV industry to developing her career into her favorite music, she takes one step at a time, and walks towards success, slowly letting us see her transformation. Looking forward to another outstanding performance by Myolie.
