Nonkul said: "I haven't mastered Mandarin so I cannot improvise the scene yet, so I needed to stick to the script 100 per cent. I needed to memorise the script many, many times to be able to nail the dialogue… I had to memorise the lines at least 100 times." Nonkul opened up about overcoming this challenge: "When I started out in my acting career, I found myself quite an insensitive person. I found it hard to cry, especially on camera, so I went to a lot of acting schools to improve on it.
His Taiwanese co-star Vivian Sung concurred with him that crying was hard, but the storyline is powerful enough to make her tear up as she was already "immersed in the story".In Oh No! Here Comes Trouble, Tseng Ching-hua plays delinquent student Pu Yi-yong,who gets into a major accident and discovers that he can communicate with spirits after waking up from his coma.
