You’ve heard of legends, but none quite like Kwan. A self-proclaimed Triad member with a flair for overconfidence, Kwan’s antics were the stuff of suburban folklore. From fanning wads of cash at bus stops to wielding a laughably tiny knife in the face of real danger, Kwan’s life was a chaotic blend of misplaced bravado and unintentional comedy. But don’t be fooled—this isn’t your typical hero’s journey. It’s the story of a man who lived loud, laughed harder, and somehow always managed to turn life’s simplest moments into an unforgettable spectacle.

In Grade 8, Victor and Dean couldn’t have been more different—Victor was hardworking and determined, while Dean preferred shortcuts to success. When Dean uncovers Victor’s passion for video games, he hatches a plan: trade a “rare and amazing” game for a history assignment. What starts as a simple deal quickly turns into a lesson in trust, effort, and the unexpected consequences of taking the easy way out.

But as tensions rise in class and a shocking revelation disrupts the usual routine, Victor and Dean’s dynamic takes an unexpected turn. Some deals, it turns out, aren’t worth the cost.

In the summer of 1997, survival was a game of wits for Dean and Kwan, two high school friends navigating life on the edge. For Kwan, inspired by the gritty underworld of Hong Kong’s Young and Dangerous, survival meant more than just bending rules—it meant carrying a secret weapon: a wrist knife he flaunted with reckless pride.

When a daring plan to sneak onto a bus spirals into a tense showdown with two mocking girls, Kwan sees an opportunity to prove his dominance. But in a battle of words and bravado, can his two-inch blade hold up against cutting wit and the laughter of a crowd?
