Episode 1 to 20:
The Witness Protection Unit (WPU) inspector Bosco Wong (Hui Wai Sam 許瑋琛) was ordered to protect the city's wealthy businessman Paul Chun's (Kiu Gong San 喬江山) daughter Linda Chung (Kiu Chi Lam Hailey 喬子琳). Linda is an important witness in an assaultation of her uncle, Ram Tseung (Kiu Gong He 喬江河).
This incident brought back bad memories where Linda kept on blaming herself for her brother's death. Gradually, she suffered from post traumatic stress disorder and had an isolated and strange personality where she's trapped in her own world.
When Bosco came into her life, she started opening up and developed feelings for Bosco where he saved her numerous times. The most memorable one is during Linda's cello concert.
Linda's heart is set and she wanted to be with Bosco despite her father's opposition. She even took the initiative to pursue him! Paul initially objected to Bosco and Linda's relationship due to his police status. However, a scene where Linda was found missings in the woods got Paul very worried where Bosco was requested to bring back his daughter. Paul promised that as long as his daughter is safe and sound, he will allow the pair to be together.
However, he had a condition for Bosco and wanted him to quit his police career as he shall hand over the business eventually to his son-in-law. While Bosco struggled in his decision, he forsake love for justice as he is a person who will strongly abide to his principles.
Thereafter, Bosco was transferred and led the CID team. While there is not much focus on police investigation case, one case that Bosco was working on involved the death of Joseph Lee (LAI SUE FUNG) who Paul had known 33 years ago and the death of his best friend. Determined to close the case, Bosco sank deeper into Paul's secret and discovered that he was involved in a kidnapping case 33 years ago with Joseph. Paul did not want to end up in jail and closely monitored Bosco's movement. He set a trap for Bosco where he ended up being sacked and he even sowed discord between Bosco and Linda.
In the end, the couple didn't end up together as Bosco tried to protect Paul from an oncoming vehicle but got injured badly. During that period, he rode on his motorcycle to see Linda one last time before dying.
My thoughts:
I wish that some of the boring part in Witness Insecurity can be used to lengthen the last episode as it was too abrupt. The themesong was beautifully wrote which played a factor in the popularity of this series. Overall, the series started off nice and captured the public attention but the ending is rather a disaster.
Yes, i totally agree that the ending is such a big disappointment. How can Bosco Wong just die so abruptly? I was hoping for a good ending actually. I wish i did not watch this series at all then.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment. Bosco was hit quite badly lol. Somehow illogical to think that he can still travel in his motor bike! Perhaps just ignore the accident scene and imagine that Bosco manage to see Linda and start their relationship. I wonder why the artistes didn't complain about the ending.
