Synopsis edit

As a child, Man Cho (Julian Cheung) was rendered mute as a result of the cruel actions of his mother and was adopted by the kind-hearted Ah Kiu (Nancy Sit). Man Cho grew up with Ah Kiu's daughter Kwan-Ho (Charmaine Sheh), and the two eventually develop romantic feelings for one another. Man Cho is extremely self-sacrificing, has an inferiority complex due to his disability, and therefore feels unworthy for Kwan-Ho. Ah Kiu is also against their relationship and things are further complicated when Szto Lai-Sun (Steven Ma) enters the picture after falling for Kwan-Ho too.

Cast edit

Sequel & Remake edit

The sequel film Return of the Cuckoo was released in the fall of 2015. It is a continuation of the story where the drama left off.

A remake under the same title in Chinese, but titled A Love of No Words in English, was released in November 2021 on TVB starring Regina Ho and Hubert Wu.[1] However, it immediately received criticism from audiences despite only several episodes having aired.[2]
