The Seventh Day (Traditional Chinese: ) is a TVB modern romance series broadcast in February 2008.
Following the success of 2006's Under the Canopy of Love (), Kevin Cheng and Niki Chow collaborate again with the same cast from Under the Canopy of Love. This is Kevin Cheng and Niki Chow's third successive collaboration following 2004's Hard Fate, and 2006's Under the Canopy of Love. All three series were produced by Amy Wong. This series was filmed in Hong Kong and Japan between November 2006 to February 2007.
Different people have different attitudes to love – even those born on the same day in the same year do not necessarily share the same views. Yau Chi-Wing (Kevin Cheng) and Hui Wai-Yan or Don Dum (Bosco Wong) were both born on the seventh day of August, but one takes relationships seriously while the other is very materialistic and sees love as a tool to get higher up the social ladder.
The tale begins on the seventh of August, when Wing and Don first encounter their own dream girl on the same island. Wing works as a lifeguard on the outlying island. He gets to know pet shop assistant Ling Ka-Yan (Niki Chow) by chance and is soon mesmerized by her endearing personality. Don, who works at a coffee shop, meets a romance comic artist called Wong Chi-Kwan or Sasa (Natalie Tong). Being misled into believing that the girl is from a rich family, Don decides to chase her. He would never have thought that someone as calculative as himself would end up falling into a love trap.
Yan at first mistook Wing to be one of those bad guys until one night Yan saw Wing getting beat up by some gangsters. Yan helped Wing, and they became friends, and Yan secretly liked Wing. After a while, Wing introduced Yan to his grandmother and they became great friends. Yan soon finds out that Wing's birthday is almost here, so she wants to celebrate it with him; then he forgot his own birthday and Yan got mad. Wing, after a while, saw how kind and sweet Yan was, and he started liking her too. Yan's parents didn't like Wing; they wanted Yan to get together with a doctor friend, Dr. Ching Yat Long. Yan didn't listen to them and still went out with Wing.
