Aloysius Pang was remembered on the third anniversary of his death on Sunday (Jan 23) through numerous messages posted on social media.

Fang posted a photo of a couple of cans of beer and in the caption said he was drinking Pang’s favourite, while Xu posted a short clip with the caption #RememberingAloysiusPang.
Pang will make a posthumous comeback to the silver screen in a movie set to released in the first half of 2022. The film was put on hold for two years after Pang’s death but host and NoonTalk Media founder Dasmond Koh, who was Pang’s mentor and manager, decided to see it through to "realise Aloysius' dream", as he told Lianhe Zaobao.
The film has resumed production in Thailand with actors Xu Bin and Damien Teo taking part in the project. The multi-language film is helmed by a Thai director, supported by NoonTalk and also stars K-pop singer Bae Jin-young.
