GoodBye

A man's life in three vignettes as he grapples with identity amidst tradition in Hong Kong's notorious Kowloon Walled City.

Delivery truck driver, Uncle Chuen, works hard every day to put food on the table. His only son, Chong, is only interested in photography. Uncle Chuen doesn’t like how Chong idles his days away doing nothing, and this is a frequent flashpoint between the two. One time during an argument, Uncle Chuen slapped Chong on the face, and Chong ran out of the house, but didn’t forsee that Chong would be hit unexpectedly by a car. Uncle Chuen and his wife rushed to the hospital, but there was no way to save him. The director of organ donation at the hospital found out that Chong had registered as an organ donor before he died. Although Uncle Chuen still could not accept his son’s death, he pushed through the pain to fulfil his son’s dying wish, to leave a gift to those still alive.

Hollie dressed in disguise as her best friend Ying Shu at a matchmaking blind date, in order to scare off the suitor. However, Hollie hadn't expected the other matchmaking party to be Timo, the new CEO of Hollie's company. Hollie behaved badly on the date to try to get Timo to reject her, but Timo decided to marry Hollie so as to avoid being forced into perpetual matchmaking by his grandpa. The real Ying Shu bumped into Alfred, Timo's best friend and PA, in a car park, and Timo realised that Hollie was in pretense all along, and dreamt up a business proposal Hollie couldn't refuse. At the same time, however, Hollie didn't want Timo to discover that she is in reality his company employee, so she could only use the fake name "Mei Ling Suen" and started on the pursuit of a double life. The whole plan could only go wrong.
