online review- come home love

“Come Home Love” is a popular TV drama, which have 491 episodes now. And people always said “Come Home Love ” is to satirize the social issue and show the traditional value of Hong Kong. Such as the episode 478, it was talk about the election of president of the Owners' Corporations. In the drama, the origin president is not good; always bully other owners and the security. And he placed many miscellaneous things in the Fire escapes even he know that it is not ok. And finally the security notices that he should get all the things back and then he uses his authority of office to dismiss the security. Ma Fu (tiger) saw this and want to protect the security then he joins the election of the president of the Owner’s Corporations. Finally he won the election. And in the Internet people think this episode is to satirize the president election of Hong Kong. And the origin president is equating to the Chef Executive CY Leung. In the drama the origin president placed his things in the Fire escapes is to satirize CY Leung’ s unauthorized building works in his house and Favoritism himself. And tiger join the election is to reflect that Hong Kong people hope that there will be an super hero to save them and the hero is select by all Hong Kong people. And it also reflects that Hong Kong people want the general election to select the Chef Executive. In the end of this episode, tiger won the election, it means that The evil will not triumph over the virtuous.” It is the traditional value of Hong Kong. But in fact the audience interprets all these, and the producer of this drama not said anything of it. “TV programme as readily text which meaning in a polysemic TV text is mostly determined by its audience”.

And also in this drama, it stereotypically ascribed specific attributes of the housewife and the workingwomen. In the first part of this drama Diana Lo (勞麗嫦) is an housewife and she always causal Wear and  no make-up. And she’s image is the black women of her husband and holds some traditional Value such as put her family in the first place and cooks for her family everyday. Also she is simple Minded. And cause of she need to take care her children and gave up her career of being a violinist to be a housewife. But after she being an workingwomen, her image was changed. As she become a wedding Planner she always formal Wear and Make-up. She also not stay at home all days anymore she become well social skills, join interested-oriented class, always go to some high class place to have afternoon tea. And from Diana Lo we can found that the drama is stereotype the housewife and workingwomen.
