Theatre actor KUN SIU-NAM (Adam Cheng) has undergone a drastic personality change after his daughter’s protracted disappearance, eventually leading to his bitter divorce from MOK LAI-HING (Chan Sau Chu).

Utterly absorbed in his theatre work, SIU-NAM all of a sudden finds himself embroiled in a recent spate of serial killings after playing the role of an evil murderer. Through his colleague LEE CHOR-KIU (Maggie Shiu), SIU-NAM gets to know her boyfriend CHEUNG SAI-YIN (Moses Chan) and his younger sister CHEUNG SAI-TING (Aimee Chan). In all his dealings with SAI-YIN, SIU-NAM has noticed an uncanny resemblance between the man and the suspected murderer. And the strange feeling that he gets from SAI-TING has added even more complications to his relationship with CHOR-KIU and the CHEUNGs. The more SIU-NAM wants to dig up, the more mysteries have emerged. When the truth is finally uncovered, it may turn out to be far more dreadful than he could ever imagine…

    Why did I know the producer just by looking at the poster and – oh surprise – the CAST.

  • JacJac says:

    Moses has multi personality disorder which makes every confused. At the end of episode 10 and then on there will be scenes where Moses talked to himself. The Jekyll bar were all his split personalities.

  • Jen says:

    Did anyone besides me instantly thought of “The Prestige”? Magicians and murders and tricks gone awry, not to mention trying to get into the heads and thought processes of other people.

    Since I adored The Prestige, I am definitly giving this drama a chance!

  • L says:

    Love this drama. Something different. Takes time to get into it though, so confusing at first. I want more of this stuff!

  • lan says:

    master of play very boring not good to watch

  • Trac says:

    I don’t get it, why does Lee Chor Kiu kills the people? And, moses has multi personality right from the beginning? Were those 5 people even real when he first met them? SOOOO CONFUSING!! HELP. HAHA.

    • JacJac says:

      You’ll see at the end that Moses is talking to himself using many personalities. He’s imagining all those people and think that he’s actually them. Maggie Siu knows Moses’s split personalities and killed people for him.
