Synopsis

Public Relation expert Heung Kwong-Nam (pun, meaning "Hong Kong men") is a renowned saviour to the single ladies in town. He is able to help many single female clients find a happy marriage by building confidence. Without charging money, he is able to find purpose in helping these women find love and themselves. Newly joined Account Officer Sing Fa-Lui (pun, meaning "unmarried woman") is hired by Mak Dik-Man as Kwong-Nam's rival. At first, she is an overly-confident girl that sees Kwong-Nam and his group (Super Senior) as lazy and good-for-nothing. But she eventually grows to see the good in Kwong-Nam and his methods and they end up falling love.


Plot summary

Episode 1-4: Kwong-Nam is hired by Ha-Tim to help his daughter, Judy, find a good husband. Judy is a princess - rich, well-educated, and loyal but also overbearing and overweight. At the same time, Fa-Lui is also hired by Dik-Man to help Judy find a husband. Both attempt to help Judy lose weight in order to find herself a good husband but Fa-Lui's dieting tactics causes Judy to become hospitalized. Ha-Tim fires her but continues to work with Kwong-Nam. Judy finds a suitable man at a speed-dating encounter set up by Kwong-Nam and Joe becomes her ultimate target to losing weight. However, Joe only sees Judy as a potential real-estate client. He admits Judy is not a typical HK-like girl, being sweet and kind, but still overweight. Kwong-Nam helps Judy realize she has changed from the typical HK girl to a nice and lovable girl. At this time, he also opens her eyes to her secret-admirer, Ho Gar-Jun. Episode 6-7: Yam Mo-Lin is a tough female cop and devoted fan of Windy, completely following her ideology of living a single "full" life. Kwong-Nam runs into Mo-Lin at a lounge, playing drinking games. Intoxicated, Mo-Lin accidentally spills her secret admiration for a fellow co-worker at the police station, Wong Lung; however, Wong Lung always seems to treat Mo-Lin as one of the guys. So, Kwong-Nam decides to help Mo-Lin attract the man she loves, whilst breaking Mo-Lin away from Windy's ridiculous concept of a feminist society. Kwong-Nam is also able to attain help from Fa-Lui for this case because Fa-Lui has a bone to pick with Windy as well. After multiple attempts, Wong Lung still rejects Mo-Lin and Mo-Lin is about ready to give up on love. At Windy's meet-and-greet, Windy urges Mo-Lin to announce her new single life to the world but Kwong-Nam appears, convincing her to admit that she does still love Wong Lung. With Kwong-Nam's setup, all of Mo-Lin's lady-lessons were recorded and Wong Lung was able to witness it all at a private theater, with Mo-Lin. He sees her diligence and persistence on screen but also admits that he likes her the way she was before the lady lessons. Episode 8-10: Fa-Lui's mother, Lee Chiu-Ling, has always taught her daughters that the ultimate goal is to marry a rich man. However, Fa-Lui's younger sister, Sing Fa-Yui, has always been a ditsy airhead so Fa-Lui puts it on herself to look after her younger sister. In order to help her find a rich man, Fa-Lui sets up an interview for Fa-Yui to be an advertising model for their next client, media tycoon Ma Ming. Due to his clean public image, Fa-Lui marks Ma Ming as a good match for Fa-Yui, hence providing more encounters for Fa-Yui to be close to Ma Ming. However, Kwong-Nam discovers that Ma Ming is a fake and his true purpose for hiring Fa-Yui is to deflower this pure and innocent girl. Kwong-Nam is torn between his professionalism to his company's client and his hatred for Ma Ming's dirty schemes. Meanwhile, Fa-Yui realizes that she does not care about marrying a rich man because her heart was already stolen by her childhood sweetheart, Pak-Kin. Pak-Kin grew up with Fa-Yui and has always had a crush on her. He was willing to give up his lazy and carefree life to work multiple jobs to win Fa-Yui's family over. Kwong-Nam also shows Fa-Lui Ma Ming's true colors and that Fa-Yui and Pak-Kin are the perfect matches together. Fa-Yui makes Pak-Kin want to be a better person and Pak-Kin really cares for Fa-Yui.
