Despite their ever-changing in-show statuses throughout the sitcom’s 1,700-plus episodes, the one thing that remains constant is their beauty. So how do they keep fit and stay beautiful under their tight working schedule? We check out their secrets …

Born and raised in Toronto, Canada, Andrea So Wen-chi, 29, has shown talent in performing arts since childhood. After she studied drama and music at Queen’s University, she won second place in Vocalibre 2015 – a televised singing contest in Canada. After achieving fourth place in Miss Hong Kong Pageant 2016, she soon entered long-running sitcom Come Home Love: Lo and Behold.

But the road to Hong Kong’s entertainment industry was bumpy for So. During an interview with Sunday More, she said she barely knew Cantonese after returning to Hong Kong from Canada. She had to memorise scripts through an alphabetic pinyin system the night before filming. But her Cantonese has been improving steadily and she is able to say her lines fluently on-screen now.
