“My oft-repeated line is, ‘I don’t have much time left. When can we form a band?’” shared Low at the press conference for the show, held today at the Shangri-La Hotel. “The show encourages us to support the pioneer generation, because all of us will reach that stage in life sooner or later,” said Li Nanxing. “Let’s not neglect the people around us.”
A Blessed Life premieres Jan 29, 8.30pm on MediaCorp TV Channel 8.
