0.03-0.06 Everyday, sitting inside the bus looking out the window

0.09-0.12 going to work, got off school, hurrying home
0:13-018 But they never notice the bus driver greeting them with a smile.
0.19-0.20 My father is that driver

1:04-1.05 Eat slowly, no hurry!
1.09 How’s our son? Obedient or naughty?
1.11-1.15 Don’t be silly, our son is always well behaved. Don't you know?
1.17-1.22 By the way, have you noticed recently that our son likes to draw?
1.24-1.24 Oh
1.25-1.25 Why not..
1:27 -1.27 Wah!
1:30-131 Help me clean up
1:32-1.33 Wei, wei, don’t forget to buy breakfast for our son

1:35 Lo ban (boss)
1:35 Good morning
1:37-1.42 The usual, right? Cha siu bao, siu mai.
1.44-1.46Here you go. You’re truly a 24 hour (good) father. Everyday, buy breakfast for your son.

3.11-3.11 Sorry, sorry,
3.12- 3.17Good timing, the father’s home. Look at how you taught your son? See, drew all over the place. Been taught good-manners or not?

3.19 That your father doesn’t know how to teach his son
3.20 Chun Jai, shut up!
3.21 I won’t
3.23 Shut up!

3.32-3.40 Chun Jai, come here. Come here! Why did you draw all over the place outside?
3.41 You told me to draw
3.43 I told you to draw but not draw all over the place
3.43 I drew it for you
3.49 So, you won’t admit you’re wrong? Still want to back talk?
3.52 I drew it for you
3.58-4.04 Fine! I bought this for you. But no more drawing. You can’t draw anymore
4.05-4.10 If can’t draw then not going to draw! Don't draw! Don't draw! Don't draw!

10-6.11 Who ask him to be so naughty?
6.14 The son is still young. Teach him slowly! You’re a grown-up, surely you aren’t as childish as him?

  3. I love this MV so much! The relationship between the dad and son is so touching! It's very interesting to see Steven portraying his own father opposite the little boy who acted as him. It was a weird (in a good way) feeling. The little boy is so cute and has a lot of chemistry with Steven. Unfortunately, the female lead in the MV is lacking in look-compatibility and chemistry with them. Somehow, she feels like an outsider in the MV sometimes. Probably because she looks too mature compared to Steven.
    Besides the touching story depicted with excellent acting in the MV, I also really like the song. The melody sounds so nice and the way he sang it was very soothing.
    Hope this kind of quality MV keeps coming up (with an improvement in female lead please)!

    1. I love it too. I thought performance wise, the 'mom' did ok but yeah lacking in look-compatibility and chemistry as not strong as the father-son duo. Have you listen to the whole song? http://stevenma-fanblog.blogspot.com/2014/05/stevens-ba-si.html

    2. I had, but wish there is a clearer version compared to the radio recording version. The clear music in the MV evidently does better justice to the song compared to the radio version.
