"I did a lot of crazy things in the film," revealed Chan Wai-ting in an interview with CRI. "But in my real life, I would probably do the same. So audiences may discover another perspective of mine in the film."

Directed by Zou Xian, "I Love That Little Crazy Thing" is expected to delight fans with a duet of Chan Wai-ting and Jung. Prior to this movie, Xian has done "But Always," another romantic picture set in Beijing and New York City.

Chan Wai-ting was part of the disbanded trio Sun Boy'z, along with Dennis Mark and Steven Cheung. He began his solo career in 2008, releasing his debut album titled "Will Power."

The singer-actor scored the "Best New Male Artist" recognition in the same year. His first big-screen appearance was in the crime-thriller movie "Overheard."

From Hong Kong, Chan Wai-ting has spread his popularity in mainland China, where he is known for various TV dramas such as "The Four" and "Swords of Legend."

Jung, meanwhile, was part of Girls' Generation, one of South Korea's most sensational all-female groups. Aside from singing, the 27-year-old celebrity is into acting, having appeared in several movies such as "Wild Romance" and the Korean version of "Legally Blonde."

To join Chan Wai-ting and Jung in "I Love That Little Crazy Thing" is Hong Kong celebrity Nicholas Tse, who has gained attention recently for reuniting with Chinese singer Faye Wong.
