This show was telecast way back in 2001 and marked Chen Kun's debut appearance on TV. The actor plays one of the lead roles in this multi-starrer and his character is his namesake. The show is about how the lives of different individuals cross paths and the role that fate plays in their lives is the highlight of the show.
