I dunno if theres any signifiant influence on the show, but why is there a box in white around a name in the closing credits??? It appears in the credits to the producers and the cast listing.

Its it just effect? or did something happen to that person?

IS this the first time TVB did this?

its good that tvb acknowleged his name in the credits..
imo, it makes the series more special as this series seems that its dedicated to that man.. i really appreciate his work in tvb.. he acted in many roles.. :(

I've noticed the white box around different names too! I thought it was just me, but I guess not. I could never figure out what it meant.

awwww thanks guys.


So is it the shortish guy that suffered a loss in confidence? if so, he was a great actor.

RIP.

I think its the first time TVB did that. Not totally sure but it was noticeable to us this time at least X)

I noticed the white box too and now I understand. Even though he did not receive any awards, he was a great actor.

ooooh...really? when i was watching the serie i was always thinking "what does that box means?" then i figured out who the person was, i thought he was some kind of important person (like a producer of something) but i never thought he died... i always recognize his face but didnt knew what his name was...but he did a good job and i hope his relatives are ok la...

so sad...RIP...
