Hanwei & Wenyong played the saxophone & violin for a "faked" orchestra. |
Wenyong suggested that Hanwei play the sax but Hanwei said instead of being sexy he'll be sensual. |
The Love for Piano
|
Wenyong visits Hanwei's new home & chats with him about his love for piano. |
|
|
|
|
Even as a baby Hanwei has a special love for the piano. |
|
His visits annoyed the cleaner She scolded him for dirtying the pianos & asked him to get his father to buy him one. But Hanwei's family was too poor to afford one. After that he became an artise.. |
Dare to dream...
Pursuing the piano dream
Even though it's best to learn piano at tender age, Hanwei didn't give up his piano dream... He finally decided to take formal lessons when he met his piano teacher, Thomas.
|
|
Thomas discovered that Hanwei really had musical talent. He was amazed that he could play from memory without looking at the score. Hanwei's diligence also impressed him. After his piano lessons, he would practise again & again till he got them right. |
Thomas is actually Hanwei's neighbour's friend. One day he overheard Hanwei playing on the keyboard which sounded "not too good". He then chatted with Hanwei & Hanwei asked him to teach him to play. |

Wenyong visits his ex- neighbours & asked if they were disturbed by "noise" from Hanwei's piano |
|
Kim, his ex-neighbour said Hanwei' could be heard playing piano any hour of the day because of his irregular working hours. Initially he didn't play very well but later he improved. His neighbours had no complaints as the music was really nice. |
The challenge
|
To test Hanwei, he asked him to play blindfolded & he did. He then teased Hanwei if he
only knew one piece. Hanwei said after a few months' lessons he
could already played 6 pieces.
Wenyong said they will arrange for him to play in a piano recital to fulfill his dream.. |
Wenyong stayed in his apartment to make sure he prepares himself. But Hanwei exceeded expectation.. practising day & night till the wee hours, | ![]() |
