Working with innumerable newlyweds in Hong Kong's most popular one-stop-shop for low-cost wedding goods does not exempt Fong from the social pressure to tie the knot. Since accepting Edward's proposal, she has been pushed to the edge by overpriced housing, antiquated customs, and invasive in-laws, to name a few obstacles. What makes things even more confusing is the reappearance of Shuwei, a mainlander she's meant to have divorced after a sham marriage that resolved her coming-of-age struggle. Shuwei's reappearance further confounds her. My Prince Edward focuses on the mechanics and bolts of modern marriage, poking fun at the perceived links between freedom and marital status, as well as geographic location in the United Kingdom. The delightful jewel, like a breath of fresh air out of the suffocating area through which it travels, gives a rare compassionate perspective on the divisions of the worldly metropolis via humor and wisdom.
