Sister Siu Hung was even envious of her 77 HEARTBREAKS (YUEN LOI TA 77 CHI)'s daughter Ah Sa. "The cast is too super, Ah Sa, how lucky are you!" Ah Sa smiled and replied to "Mommy", "That's right, I won the grand prize!" Ah Sa described her character as "a tragic character who fell into the temptation of money and had no way to escape", simply introduced her filmmaking experience.
