Kinship (Simplified Chinese: 手足) is a Singaporean Chinese long running drama which was televised on Singapore's free-to-air channel, MediaCorp TV Channel 8 every Monday to Friday at 19:00 tonight. The drama is divided into two parts: Part 1 and Part 2.
This drama series consists of a cast which aims to appeal to both younger and older audience. As such, producers have cited this drama as a highly anticipated drama, comparable to the likes of Holland V, Double Happiness and Portrait of Home. This drama is one of the longest running dramas with 83 episodes, being produced by MediaCorp in 2007. Despite being a highly anticipated drama, it received more criticism than any other locally produced Chinese-language drama and only half of the expected viewership. It also holds the dubious honor of the first long-running drama to fail to receive a Star Awards nomination for Best Drama and for each of the four acting categories.
Part 1 premiered on 19 June 2007 and ended on 17 August 2007. Part 2 premiered on 17 December 2007 and ended on 8 February 2008.
Da Ying Jia foot reflexology centre was founded by the brothers, Anping and Anxin, 25 years ago. Now, both of them split-up and Anxin takes charge of the business operations of the new branches of Da Ying Jia while Anping stays in the original centre, becoming a foot reflexologist.
Anping married Meiqi and both of them adopted three girls: Jinsha, Yinsha and Yusheng. Two of them, Jinsha and Yinsha, are married to their husbands, Naifa and Zhaoyang respectively, and they live near to Anping's residence, a HDB flat's unit in Singapore.
