Conversely, KIN had been kept in the dark until murderers from several fatal cases made him suspicious. He took advantage of OCTB senior inspector SEUNG KOON MING CHU's (Kate Tsui) trust to get information on the police operations against the triad and his girlfriend LAI CHAN (Eliza Sam) is a SDU member. Thereafter, YEUNG got into the yacht business and became the president of a gun club, but was actually working with the triad underground.

Since receiving the Best Newcomer Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards in 2008, Kate had her eyes set on being the next TV Queen. However, due to TVB favoring Kate, it is rumored that she and Kathy are not on good terms. Kathy’s character development in Sniper Standoff originally was pegged as having a highly interesting storyline as she is involved in a love triangle with Eddie Cheung (張兆輝) and Michael Tse (謝天華). Due to this, Kate is visibly the most promoted out of the two leading actresses for Sniper Standoff as she stood in the center for every promotional event – leaving Kathy to awkwardly stand off to the side.
Most of Kathy’s limelight in Sniper Standoff was stolen by Kate Tsui (徐子珊), whose popularity has been continuously rising.ĭespite losing last year’s TV Queen battle against Tavia Yeung (楊怡), Kate remains a popular candidate in this year’s competition. Unlike Bobby Au Yeung (歐陽震華) and Esther Kwan (關詠荷) who generated media buzz for Always and Ever, and Francis Ng (吳鎮宇) for his return in Triumph in the Skies 2, Kathy Chow’s (周海媚) return to the TVB was not widely discussed. Although TVB managed to invite many veteran actors back to the station, not all of them managed to make a successful comeback.
