Trivia

  • This marks Ann Kok's return after The Family Court, playing villain for the consecutive second time. In that drama, her being villain was under the influence of another part-time antagonist. This time, her being villain was being a natural hatredism.
  • This also marks Thomas Ong who returns after The Illusionist and Secrets for Sale.
  • 我是你的天空 by Ocean Ou is Taste of Love's theme song, reused as Fuyuan also sung this song.

5.30pm encore

This drama would be encored at 5.30pm despite a few episodes having violence, similar to The Family Court and The Score. It was planned for an Unriddle 2 quick encore, which has similar violent scenes, the next weekday after the finale, but however Be Happy would be encored instead.
