Perfect Match plot summary
Perfect Match (original title: 五福临门) is a Chinese costume drama set in Bianjing, the bustling capital of the Northern Song dynasty. At its centre is Madame Li, a mother with one pressing goal: to see her daughters settled in good marriages. Convinced that the capital holds better prospects, she uproots the household and moves the family there.
Her daughters are known for their looks and sharp minds, yet each has a personality that makes matchmaking far from simple. Shou Hua, the eldest, lost her husband young and has no wish to marry again. Kang Ning, the third, is fiery and stubborn. Hao De, the fourth, means well but rarely softens her words. Le Shan, the youngest, is pampered and hard to please.
Life in the city does not begin smoothly. The sister already married in Bianjing does not welcome them warmly, and the family must rebuild its business from the ground up. What follows is a lively mix of comedy, romance and family bonds as a determined mother and her very different daughters find their footing in a new home.
