Personal Note: So many familiar costumes! :P

Not looking forward to this series, but hope that Sunny is playing a smart role this time around.

Lin Xia Wei must have taken over for Aimee Chan, who was supposed to film this series but was not able to take part, as she is still filming "A Great Way to Care II".
