RBKD: Rui En plays a kidney patient, Shen Chuyi in Life is Beautiful, who is given a second chance of life after undergoing a successful kidney transplant operation. In the show, she can be seen rattling off calorie-related figures which she finds it a challenge to remember the lines and numbers. Nonetheless, that’s also the beauty of the character as that’s her way of showing her love.

Rui En finds it a huge relief and great joy to act in Life is Beautiful after filming Against The Tide as Chuyi, a happy-go-lucky kidney patient is the complete opposite with Qiu Xueqing.

Apart from the joy working with her co-stars, it was also a sobering experience for Rui En when she visited the NKF Dialysis Centre. Speaking to kidney patients as part of her preparation for the role was an eye-opener in many ways.

Another meaningful aspect of working on a projects like Life is Beautiful and and C.L.I.F. would be the career reaffirmation she gets from educating the public via her roles.

When asked what would Rui En do if she is given a second chance in life, she replied that she’d be less selfish and try her best every day to be a better person.
