Overview
Hong Kong high school student Chung (Loletta Lee) captured the attention of San Ho during her summer trip to Hawaii, causing him to follow her all the way back to Hong Kong. After enrolling in her school, San Ho devotes his attention towards Chung, fueling the jealousy of Tse Tin, the son of the school dean. To make things even more complicated, Chung is infatuated with her physical education teacher (Russell Wong), and Daydreamer (Nadia Chan) has fallen in love with San Ho. Of course, what better way is there to resolve schoolyard romantic complications than a basketball game?
