Alice Chan’s Courtroom Meltdown in ‘Goddess of Justice’ Is Absolute Gold! Sending Her Own Son to Prison Will Break Your Heart, and Her Steamy Scenes with Louis Koo? Who Says No?
Hey hey hey, have you been keeping up with ‘Goddess of Justice’ lately? I’m telling you, it’s been ages since a drama got me this hooked. Especially ‘Sister炜’ Alice Chan – she’s absolutely smashing it. The way she portrays total devastation from the inside out is a masterclass in what it means to ‘single-handedly save the ratings’.
That courtroom crying scene made me stop mid-chip
The most iconic moment has to be in the latest episodes, where Alice Chan’s character – a judge – is forced to send her own biological son to prison. I mean, what kind of cruel, heartbreaking script is that? But Alice pulls it off flawlessly. In the courtroom, she starts with forced composure, then the tears start falling drop by drop, and finally, she breaks down completely. The sheer agony of being both a judge and a mother is so raw, you feel it through the screen. Social media went wild, with everyone calling her a ‘heartbroken mum’ and saying ‘her crying tore my heart out’. I dare say, if she doesn’t win Best Actress this year, I’ll be the first to protest!
The producer gave the green light! Who says she can’t have steamy scenes with Louis Koo?
Speaking of Alice, remember the sparks she and Louis Koo created in their past collaborations? The producer of ‘Goddess of Justice’ knows what’s up, specially inviting Louis for a key cameo role with plenty of screen time opposite Alice. Think it’s just regular dialogue scenes? Oh, you sweet summer child. According to behind-the-scenes sources, one of the intimate scenes was originally written as quite subtle, but on the day of filming, the chemistry between them was so intense that the producer decided on the spot to ‘give the green light’ and go for it. The resulting tension and ambiguity had even the crew blushing. Someone asked Alice if it was awkward filming steamy scenes with Louis. She laughed and said, ‘Working with a handsome guy? Who says no?’ Wow, what a legend.
- Courtroom breakdown hailed as ‘the most tear-jerking scene of the year’
- Kissing scene with Louis Koo was extended on the producer’s call
- Sending her own son to prison leads to a shattered relationship – fans: ‘It broke my heart’
Even ‘Goh V Shem’ got emotional? The badminton star’s name mix-up
It’s hilarious – the popularity of ‘Goddess of Justice’ has sparked an amusing internet trend. Malaysian badminton star Goh V Shem (yes, the men’s doubles ace) shares a similar-sounding name to Alice Chan (just one character different in Chinese). So quite a few Malaysian drama fans mistakenly tagged him, asking ‘why are you crying so tragically in court?’ Goh couldn’t help but post a funny clarification: ‘I’m good at badminton, but I’m no match for Alice when it comes to crying scenes.’ This beautiful mix-up has fans on both sides having a good laugh. Truth is, one is an acting goddess, the other an athletic hero – both are pride of Hong Kong and Malaysia!
In short, if you haven’t started watching ‘Goddess of Justice’, go find it online and pull an all-nighter to catch up. Just watching Alice Chan kill with her eyes and drown you with her tears is worth the price of admission. Don’t say I didn’t warn you – grab three boxes of tissues, because you won’t want to miss a single drop of her legendary tears.
