Remarks

[Drama Info]

Directed by Li Qing Rong and if you're into romcom, you have to have tried at least one her dramas: Go Go Squid!, Hidden Love, Mr. Bad, Everyone Loves Me (which also starred Lin Yi), etc.

It's Lin Yi's second collaboration with the director, as well as with Yu Shu Xin. They're already an on-screen CP because of a variety show Let's Go Skiing Snowboarding 超有趣滑雪大會. In particular, their fans love the clip where Lin Yi compliments Yu Shu Xin for looking like Ni Ni – not Ni Ni the actress, but Ni Ni the Chinese cartoon. Haha. 

Wrapped on June 19, 2024.
