"I have lived in Singapore for over 10 years and it is my second home. It feels familiar. There are many things I want to eat, like popiah, hokkien mee and laksa. I miss popiah," the actor admitted in an interview with Shin Min Daily News.
The actor, Xiangyu, is best remembered for his role in 2008's Little Nyonya. He was a full-time Mediacorp artist from 2007 to 2013.
Dai Xiangyu also expressed that his Chinese wife, Chen Zihan, wanted to visit Singapore but was unable to take time off from her work.
The drama he will be promoting, Sisterhood, is about the difficulties faced by Samsui women who moved to Singapore from China to earn money and support their families. These women joined the construction industry and agreed to do physically demanding jobs such as moving bricks, carrying wooden planks and mixing concrete. In this drama, Xiangyu plays a gangster with a love interest for a Samsui woman played by Yelena Shaw.
