FYI: The official English title of this series is "The Line Watchers".

Personal Note: Finally, a blessing ceremony! The series has actually been filming since the end of October!

Is there really a need to have a big focus on the family and partners of customs officers?! o_O

Expected a Carlos-Venus pairing, but it's actually Carlos and Moon!

Yoyo and C Kwan are an interesting pairing!
