SINGAPOREAN drama series Unriddle was a hit and created waves in the republic. The series also received four nominations at the prestigious Star Awards 2011, including for best drama serial and best screenplay.
The addictive crime investigative drama series is back now with a darker and more sinister sequel. Unriddle 2, which premiered last Wednesday, is screened over ntv7 fom Monday to Thursday at 10pm.
The celebrated series traces the trials and tribulations of crime-fighting duo, Lin Zheng Yi (also known as Da Bao in the serial) and Hu Xiao Man, portrayed by Chen Li Ping and Rui En respectively.
Some members of the cast of Unriddle 2 were in Kuala Lumpur recently to promote the series.
Elvin Ng, who plays Rui En’s on-screen nemesis Xie Lang Feng (nicknamed Wolf), said the script is a narrative that transcends what’s right and wrong. The intricacy of the lessons each character presents is what makes Unriddle 2 such a hit among audience.
According to Chen, Unriddle 2 is much more intense than its prequel as there is more drama revolving around the characters from part one who also have to weather through unfortunate events.
Rui En, who worked closely with Chen because of the nature of their on-screen characters, nearly succumbed to the pressure. Chen, who is the more experienced actress, managed to help Rui En regain her footing.

Day 1: 中午12点，电视台
又一个《花样人间》开工日。小鬼架起墨镜脚踩拖鞋，缓缓走进化妆间。
终于等到进场时间。那天的戏，讲的是小鬼如何暗地出招改善黄文永与瑞恩的父女关系。
本地电视圈，这位外来星看来还蛮融入的。
片场空档，说说笑笑之余，还会为支持剧中阿爸周初明与好搭档瑞恩，一有时间便窝在休息室追看《注定》与《最火搭档2》。
“哈，一扭开电视，几乎都是我认识的人耶！” 他很兴奋提起。
外来星 打工日记
两位《花样》宝岛星来新拍片，长达3个月。片场/居家生活点滴乐趣，i带你窥探。
小鬼天生玩家
调皮鬼：与陈邦鋆和张耀栋戏里戏外名副其实“三剑客”，去到哪里玩到哪里。就连一向很酷的瑞恩竟也乐意陪他当Bananas in Pajamas？！

新兵报到
李元玲
新传媒中谁是你的假想敌？
我没把大家当对手，但很多人却把我当成对手看待…其实我只是有目标，根本不会踩着别人往上爬。我们学音乐的孩子比较喜欢安静独处，不会刻意去讨好人，但大家就认为我孤僻…其实必要时我还是会社交，但休息时我deserve自己的空间。
这点你和瑞恩很像…
那不同，瑞恩红了，放的屁也是香的。一个人有了名气，大家就会接受他所有瑕疵。但我还是新人，必须尊重前辈。
黄繆怡
新传媒中谁是你的假想敌？
哇…你的问题我都没有想过耶。我不知道自己是什么路线，所以…没有敌人，目标就是突破自己吧。未来我想成为实力派，如欧萱、瑞恩、昱清大哥。

“工作是专心表演，不是做公关交际应酬。”
郑嘉颖早前被《拳王》演员炮轰难相处，郑小生的心声，看来瑞恩应该也能感同身受。
