A Time of Love (Chinese: ; Jyutping: Ngoi Ching Lai Dik Si Hau) is a 2014 Hong Kong micro film produced by TVB. The series is made up of four different stories varying from sad, urban, happy and cartoon theme in different countries. Kate Tsui and Taiwanese actors James Wen and Chris Wang will be entangled in a love triangle in the sad theme in Taiwan. Charmaine Sheh will be portraying Kenneth Ma's boss in the urban theme in Singapore. The happy theme will be featuring Linda Chung and Korean actor singer Yeon Jung-hoon as a pair in South Korea. In the last cartoon theme Wong Cho-lam will be playing various characters that help a couple played by Taiwanese actor singer Aaron Yan and Japanese comedian Naomi Watanabe get together in Japan.
Set in Malaysia, the movie begins with Ling Shan (Kate Tsui) suffering from amnesia after going through a vicious car accident. Though she forgets her family and loved ones, the only person Shan remembers is Shing (Chris Wang), who loses mobility in one of his legs while trying to save her. Feeling guilty and developing a deep admiration for Shing, Shan falls deeply in love with Shing and moves in with him. As Shan and Shing prepare for their marriage, Shan meets Ho, who claims to be her former boyfriend. Ho brings her to various places around the city to spark her memory, and Shan begins to feel a sense of familiarity.
The Singapore segment of the film is a modern tale of a career-minded women, Crystal (Charmaine Sheh) who hires her subordinate Oscar (Kenneth Ma), as her temporary partner so she can use him to trash her ex-boyfriend’s wedding. To Crystal’s surprise, Oscar ends up falling in love with her.
The Korean segment tells the story of the professional Korean illustrator King (Yeon Jung-hoon), who also works as a part-time Korean-language teacher for foreigners. Wanting to spend a life with her boyfriend in Korea, flamboyant and spoiled Hong Kong girl Linda (Linda Chung) hires King as her Korean teacher. With their opposite personalities, King initially dislikes Linda, but for the sake of his job, he learns to cope with her. As the days go by, King begins to see a new, more likable side of Linda and slowly begins to fall in love with her. However, he also discovers a terrifying secret about her boyfriend, and he is at odds with himself over it.
