Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released during Hong Kong's post-handover anxiety, the triad-police corruption themes hit differently knowing real 1990s ICAC scandals inspired similar storylines.
Marco Law reportedly wrote Fung Chi Wai specifically for Alex Fong after their collaboration on 'File of Justice' — that casting chemistry shows.
