Lobang King (我是Lobang King) is a Singaporean comedy drama which aired on Channel 8 in 2003. It is a spin-off of the popular long-running series Don't Worry, Be Happy (敢敢做个开心人), which had just ended its sixth and final season.[1]
Chew Chor Meng, Huang Wenyong and Tracer Wong remain from the original series. Irene Ang of "Phua Chu Kang" fame and former Star Search finalists Jeff Wang, Joey Ng and Zen Chong joined the cast.
Chew Chor Meng and Huang Wenyong return as the "kiasu" Ah Bee and his penny-pinching uncle Kim Lye respectively.
Ah Bee has set up a real estate company with Taiwanese partner Xu Jiefu. By chance, Jiefu employs Mabel as her English proficiency is crucial when dealing with foreign clients. However, Ah Bee and the recently divorced Mabel are often at loggerheads with each other. Mabel turns out to be Ming Zhu's English teacher in the past
Ah Bee's uncle Kim Lye is boss of a provisions shop. Kim Lye's employee "Mee Siam" is very pretty and often attracts customers, especially Jiefu who tries to woo her. Later, Kim Lye employs his old friend's son Daji and makes him work long hours without overtime pay to save money.
Wendy Teo of The New Paper wrote that the series' jokes are "tired and bland".[2]
