Reunion Dinner (film)

A couple who works in an advertising firm, Chaoyang (Lawrence Wong) and Zihong (Cya Liu) have a marriage on the cards, but both have not met each other’s parents. At a client's request, they have to do a livestream of their own reunion dinner to promote the company's products, and their parents will officially meet for the first time.

Estranged with his mother Yanling (Xiang Yun) and embarrassed by her occupation as a mama-san, Chaoyang decides to fake a family with the help of his mother's boyfriend Wei (Mark Lee) and two freelance actors, who pretend to be his mother and "fake relatives", resulting in a series of mishaps and hilarity. With Zihong's father flying in from China, and a fake family assembled, can the reunion dinner go smoothly? Can Chaoyang fix the broken relationship with his mother?[5]
