The Legend of Love 2007 / 牛郎織女 2007 / The Legend of Cow Herder and Weaving Maiden

The legend tells that every year on the seventh day of the seventh month in the lunar calendar, the Cowherd and the Weaving Girl will meet on the Bridge of Birds in the Milky Way. This romantic date on the Seventh-day holds behind it an ill-fated love affair between an immortal and a human. In the heavenly palace, the weaving girl Fuk Jik Jik is responsible for weaving the colourful clouds, but she accidentally drops the cloud loom shuttle into the mortal world, and this is seen by the Jade Empress, who sends Jik Jik and her friend Bo Hei Jeuk down to the mortal world to find the shuttle. Jik Jik meets Cowherd Wong Ah Ngau on the earth, and he works hard to make her a new shuttle. She falls in love with him and always sneaks away to go and meet with him. This is discovered by the Jade Empress, and Jik Jik is called back urgently to the heavens. She will not let go of her true love and would rather let go of everything in the immortal world and become a mortal, but she finds that Ah Ngau has had his memories wiped clean by the Empress...
