TVB will be airing highly anticipated drama, Three Kingdoms RPG <回到三國>, on July 9th in Hong Kong. The time-travel drama features Raymond Lam (林峯), Kenneth Ma (馬國明), Tavia Yeung (楊怡), Ruco Chan (陳展鵬), Sharon Chan (陳敏之) , and Pierre Ngo (敖嘉年). Three Kingdoms RPG will transport you back to the historical Chinese era with a modern, comedic twist. Vincent Sima (Kenneth Ma) is a lazy slacker who works as a temporary actor. Addicted to video games, Vincent is passionate in playing the Three Kingdoms video game and becomes a master in game strategy. Due to a typhoon, Vincent is transported back in time to the Three Kingdoms era, where he meets historical figures, Zhuge Liang (Raymond Lam), Liu Bei (Lee Kwok Lun 李國麟), Zhang Fei (Savio Tsang 曾偉權), and Zhou Yu (Ruco Chan). Utilizing his unusual strategies, Vincent engages in a battle of wits with Zhuge Liang. Vincent becomes a valued strategist in the Three Kingdoms era, rising in prominence and shaping key historical events. Falling in love with Liu Bei’s maid, Song Yau (Tavia Yeung), Vincent’s life becomes more absorbed in a world he does not truly belong to. Vincent shares one night of intimacy with Song Yau. Three Kingdoms RPG retells the well known story of the historical period, in which three rival states, Wei, Shu, and Wu engaged in fierce battles. Will Vincent’s modern wit allow him to outwit the most brilliant military strategists of the time? Will Vincent adopt the Three Kingdoms era as his new home? Or is he destined to return to modern Hong Kong and leave behind his true love? The 25-episode Three Kingdoms RPG is produced by Lau Ka Ho (劉家豪), who resigned from TVB earlier this year to work for another local television station, Now TV. Featuring a troupe of TVB’s most popular actors, Three Kingdoms RPG will likely be a crowd pleaser.

Hopefully no let down. This was in the Sales Presentation 2 years ago. Back then it was still Ron who was suppose to play Kenneth's role. Now i think about it.. it's also been a while since we've seen Pierre Ngo. Also we get to see more Ruco! I dont know very much about 3 Kingdoms.. so hopefully they'll provide me some knowledge (although i expect it wont be THAT accurate cause it's a game + drama)
Why do I have a feeling Kenneth will somehow become Sima Yi... well at least Raymond Lam isn't the main character =P
a bettter choice i would think these "back in time" series are a bit clique now....hopefully it can surprise.
It's going to be hard to compare the other two back to the past series... A Step into the Past and The Thief of Time
yea hopefully it will be good, been waiting a long time for this series. i still think ron ng would've been a better choice for the role though. ron ng has the smart rascal character in him i think while kenneth ma has the flirty playboy vibe.
I think Ron would have been better because the way he played it in the presentation was SOOOOOOO funny. Can't wait to see this nonetheless. Love Kenneth anyway
looks like a great series, always a good mix, when you take someone from present times back to the pass
Ah seems like Ha Yu won't be in this series once Kenneth jumps back to the past. Look okay (though a lot of CGI, yes it has a gaming element so it's understandable), although I'm not too interested in some casts.
