siuyiu Can you confirm Is the term Fadan come from Cantonese opera? Charmaine Sheh is actually rank higher and paid more in salary than Myolie Wu ,Tavia Yeung and Fala Chen in mid 2000. Fala suppose to be late 2000. Charmaine suppose to be big sister with Gigi Lai. Sheren Tang have win best actress award in 2009 and 2010,she also ranking higher than Myolie and Tavia even she older. Kristal Tin and Alice Chan promoted as next generation TVB Fadan? They are over 40 already mann. Why Maggie Siu ,Michelle Yee was not included in this list? What about siuyiu favourites actress Michelle Yim? Is ATV fadan?

siuyiu Can you confirm Is the term Fadan come from Cantonese opera? What about siuyiu favourites actress Michelle Yim? Is ATV fadan? not just cantonese opera, but chinese opera in general. the term, according to wiki, dates back to the operas 戲曲 of the yuan dynasty, where the form originates. yes, i guess michelle yim was one of the major 花旦 at RTV/ATV back in the day. i've never paid much attention to the politics of it all. i watch for mostly storyline and period dramas. i just happen to like a handful of actors like michelle yim and would be more inclined to look at their works compared to others', but not always (i.e., even if the series starred all my favourite actors, if the story doesn't interest me, i most likely won't watch it). as for your question about why some are on the list and not others: politics, favouritism, etc. and don't forget that with wiki, there's some bias involved, given that it's up to "the general public" to add content, and if "the general public" doesn't like someone, their name won't show up. sometimes, it may simply be a simple issue of "the general public" not knowing the complete list and hasn't done enough homework to make it comprehensive.
