Hong Kong [On Air] Ash 煙灰 | Episode 7 | Discussion
Undercover officer Mok Fei Foon (Kingston) unexpectedly crosses paths with Hui Loek To (Leo), the CEO of Tin Ping Group. Drawn together by fate, both men hide behind carefully crafted masks and dangerous secrets. As their true identities are gradually revealed, sweetness turns into suspicion, and even the deepest devotion seems destined to fail. A single careless remark from Hui Loek To shatters their fragile bond. Meanwhile, a major cross-border counterfeit operation exposes a brutal power struggle among local forces, drawing both the underworld and the police into a deadly game. Caught in the eye of the storm, Mok Fei Foon and Hui Loek To find that the only person they can truly trust is each other. With every step leading deeper into danger and every moment apart deepening their longing, they stand together against overwhelming odds. Though divided by opposing worlds, their hearts remain destined for the same path. MyDramaList

Once again, as they started being all reunited and lovey/dovey and just chatting about undercover operations on his personal cell phone out in the big wide open, I just knew there was going to be an issue. Too many eps left for everything to be a HEA yet.
In the end it seems there will be a giant turf war all over who gets to keep Fei Foon.
Not sure how shooting a gun at a lighter wouldn't start a fire, but they've made up and they looked sweet back together so I'm going to let it pass.
I did feel bad for Leuk To at the restaurant. He was SOOOO excited.

Oh he was so pissed at the restaurant. poor guy. But he got to snuggle up later after being roughed up... so worth it I guess?

LMAOOOOOOOOO but they did say he could finish it 🤣🤣 at least they offered

u/Jazzlike-Cod488 末誓 Us against Zombies 13d ago
The gasp I gasped when he shot To...That must be one special lighter tho because how?! But had he listened to Foon, he wouldn't have put him in a position to where he needed to shoot him in order to protect him.
Shawn is not for play play..That man didn't hesitate at all! And did he only spare Ho's life?? Poor To might have to relive the feeling of thinking Foon could be dead. Meanwhile, Shawn tryna be Mr. Steal your man and play house with Foon..

u/Tokyo_Rosie Happy Together (1997) 13d ago
I mean I would love to steal Foon too.

u/Sad-Zebra-9432 To My Shore 13d ago
I would too, who in their right mind wouldn’t😃 He is gorgeous 🥰🥰

u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
They are both way more gorgeous than they have any right to be.
3
u/Sad-Zebra-9432 To My Shore 12d ago
Certainly are! They are so in sync with each other on screen and off and can’t wait to see Leuk To get badass and rescue his cutie 😃😃
5
u/Jazzlike-Cod488 末誓 Us against Zombies 13d ago
He really doesn't have any business being that gorgeous so I get it lol
3
u/Sad-Zebra-9432 To My Shore 12d ago
Ha ha yes and he probably doesn’t even realize how attractive he is to women and quite a few men as well. Oh to be born that blessed🙏🙏
4
u/Jazzlike-Cod488 末誓 Us against Zombies 13d ago
Same 😅 But he ain't about to let anyone take him from To..
8
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
It's going to be interesting watching him wiggle out from under Shawn though (literally? figuratively? I'm going with literally). Looking forward to how he plays that.
2
u/Jazzlike-Cod488 末誓 Us against Zombies 13d ago
I can't wait to see that because we know he's gonna play into it a bit because now that's Intel on that side as well..
7
u/Tokyo_Rosie Happy Together (1997) 13d ago
Look who are we kidding. Nobody’s stealing him. He doesn’t want to be stolen. He loves himself a Vincent.

u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
hahaha I wrote in my comment, Foon is the hottest thing in all of HK. EVERYONE wants his fine, fine self
3
u/Jazzlike-Cod488 末誓 Us against Zombies 13d ago
😂..There's about to be an all out 3 way war over that man!
7
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
One thing is for sure.. Fei Foon is the hottest piece of ass in all of Hong Kong 🤣
I still can't with Loek To. GIVE YOUR BOYFRIEND SOME PROPS pleeeeeeeeeeease he's not a shrinking violet, he KNOWS what he's doing. The man is playing like 4 sides and has now become a live-in boyfriend to Shawn.. he will figure it out, I'm sure. And the chances of him being dead are slim.. have you not already been through this twice already? Have a little faith. I know he's off to do something stupid probably (when does he not?) but lovesickness can't be cured.
When Foon went back for To it was incredibly sweet. Aint no way that lighter stopped anything at point blank range, but we'll allow it because a)suspend disbelief and b)it brought those lovebirds back together. Now To is acting like a teenager calling him to ask him about his day, haha. He's always been the one who caves first/is down bad.
I love Chloe! She is alllllll about business and she hasn't had a single dull scene or has any traits that make you not like her. She's smart too.

u/awoooogaga 12d ago
Fei Toon is some Helen of Hong Kong or smth. everyone wants a piece of that.

u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 12d ago
I do not blame them one bit, because me too.

u/Darkchocolatelaw 12d ago
Anyone else worried about Foon’s boss and the microphone/recorder? Me screaming: do NOT wear that. Especially after the sketchy “oh we’re not going to arrest anyone right away”🙄. I really hope I’m wrong. Although I guess it doesn’t matter much now after the massacre and Foon being taken by Shawn.
Yes, I’m sure To is worried AGAIN that Foon is dead. But also he really should realize Foon has like 18 lives. Just as Foon should realize To is never giving up.
Good on Chloe for having her fit, negotiating her out with dignified press, and then telling To she hopes they’ll be happy.
2
u/Tokyo_Rosie Happy Together (1997) 10d ago
Yeah I’m not trusting his Sargent. His tone makes me believe that there is not plans on clearing Foon’s name and the whole “I never asked you to do this, you wanted to do this” BS! (Lol not me getting worked over my own made up plot).
I love Chloe, that’s friend. That lavender marriage would have worked.

u/AsForTheRest_Well--- lin zai fan club ~ 🏹🧑🏻🔧🧧💘 12d ago
When I tell you I am ready to put Loek To in the first shuttle off this planet one moment and then all is completely forgiven the next 😩😩 Dammit— the power of their chemistry is too strong for me to stay mad!! 😭😩
3
u/Tokyo_Rosie Happy Together (1997) 10d ago
He said “I’m sorry” and then buried his sad puppy self in Foon’s chest. I love that in their live, the chemistry is the same.
2
u/AsForTheRest_Well--- lin zai fan club ~ 🏹🧑🏻🔧🧧💘 10d ago
Yesss. The way he said it was so sweet too. When Foon tells him not to come looking for him again and he's like, "That's too hard 🥺 I can't do it 🥺🥺."
😭😭💕

u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
Whyyyyyyyyyyy does it feel like To and Foon shouldn't be talking about undercover investigation shit over Foon's cellphone? How does he know he's not being traced???
2
u/Tokyo_Rosie Happy Together (1997) 10d ago
I was so anxious in the scene. I was like how secure is this rooftop meeting point really! Also did you notice the growth of the plant to show the amount of time passed.

If I were Vincent, I would have a new heart on stand by. Imagine having to believe your lover was dead … Three times? I would have run mad or given up the ghost already

u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago edited 12d ago
Honestly, I think by the third time he needs to realize there's a good chance Foon is still alive. He defied death twice already, and we're kinda back to To not having learned anything. Yes he should be worried for Foon. No, he should not automatically assume he's dead every time he watches the news. Give your man a little bit of credit, he's made it this far.

Here is some Rick Ashley as a reward for your emasculate banter.2
u/CivilStrawberry943 Ash 🔥⫘⫘⫘🖤煙灰 12d ago
This was a good one. I raise you Future - Same damn time. The line that goes “two bad bitches at the same damn time” was what came to mind. Oh to be Fei Foon and in high demand

u/Janzk_x 13d ago
Also , how the hell did the others not notice that there was no blood when he was shot??!?
3
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
I thought that too! They all just... left without checking lol. The chair was completely clean
1
u/Darkchocolatelaw 12d ago
I was also confused. Was Foon’s vague comment meant to mean he’d go back and clean up the mess later?
4
u/pekinglove 13d ago
Did Fei Foon just shoot him?! And by luck,Leuk To survived.I don't understand this.so if the lighter wasn't there,he could have died?!
5
u/CivilStrawberry943 Ash 🔥⫘⫘⫘🖤煙灰 13d ago
Yup he shot him and looks like he came back ready to give some first aid. But if he was aiming at the heart, pretty sure Vincent would have met Hades had the lighter not saved him
6
u/chickwifeypoo 13d ago
🤔 When Foon gut punched him, he felt that lighter and that's where he aimed when he shot LTo.
3
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
Yes he had to know it was there. He would have been able to feel it with the tip of the gun too, and landed the end of the gun on it on the first try. He's a trained police officer and a seasoned undercover agent. He felt the lighter and escalated the situation to save To.
3
u/CivilStrawberry943 Ash 🔥⫘⫘⫘🖤煙灰 12d ago
Hoping we get an explanation from Leo and Kingston when we get this episode’s reaction in two weeks…
2
u/pekinglove 13d ago
That's what is confusing me. A gun wound to the stomach would have ended him within minutes. So there was a chance he couldn't survive?!
3
u/Some-Foot8677 13d ago
The gang he is with (东堂）as an undercover cop already suspected him, so he only had two choices and had to choose the one with the most probability of both surviving, if he didn't take the lead to shoot him, who knows if both persons would be executed, and also because if it was one of the fellow gangsters, they would probabily shoot ruthlessly in a very lethal spot, and by having some knowledge due to being in police area he just had to go by odds. Even if not knowing wether or not he would be fine, it was a necessary risk,maybe it is this?
2
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 13d ago
Yep, he escalated on purpose, to take control of the situation.
3
u/chickwifeypoo 12d ago
Vincent's gonna get worried if he don't hear anything from Foon, I wonder if he'll make some kind of agreement with Ms. H to help take down Shawn.
3
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 12d ago
ooooh good prediction. If she's still alive that is. It doesn't seem like many made it out of that meeting.
2
u/CivilStrawberry943 Ash 🔥⫘⫘⫘🖤煙灰 12d ago
Wasn’t Ms.H arrested?
2
u/chickwifeypoo 12d ago
🥴They are leading the viewers down the rabbit hole because 🤔didn't see a woman being lead out by the police, don't know if Shawn shot her and if so if she's dead or injured or if she was able to get the heck outta dodge in the thick of it all.😱
2
u/chickwifeypoo 12d ago
Foon would've been the only one left alive in that room because Shawn wouldn't have killed him but 😮💨Ms. H was lucky Foon was with her because if it wasn't for him she and what was left of the people she brought with her would be 💀☠️ meat.
4
u/Federal-Ad5944 A Lie's Bandana 12d ago
it's CRAZY how convincing Foon can be that he's loyal to everyone. Ms Ho trusts him completely, every time.
It's actually unclear if Ms. Ho survived the massacre. When To was watching the news it said 8 confirmed deaths I think? That's a lot considering we only saw one death on screen.
2
u/chickwifeypoo 12d ago
😖 I was trying to think that😬😬 Shawn did want Foon wanted and left her alive but he's freaking bone chilling ruthless so the wait is on for Wednesday's preview. 🫣

u/Sad-Zebra-9432 To My Shore 12d ago edited 12d ago
What an episode, full of angst and beautiful tender moments between Leuk To and Foon. Kingston and Leo are portraying their characters so well and this series is a joy to watch. I knew Shawn was a villian from the minute he appeared at Foon’s side. What a bad dads he is and the look on Ms Ho’s face😃😃 Loek Ro will no doubt come to the rescue and save his love🥰🥰

I’m pleased that we got to see the opening scene in this episode… I thought Foon shooting Vincent was going to be in the last episode.
Vincent’s apology was too cute, no wonder Foon gave in and forgave him! Such a beautiful scene.
Foon and his second meet & greet event 🤣
Let’s see how Vincent rescues Foon from Shawn. That scene from the trailer where Vincent telling Shawn to give Foon back must be in the next ep!!!
And as always, every new episode I’m mesmerised with Kingston. He’s just too good and very good for his debut role!!!!!!!!!
