Meanwhile, Emerald Hill’s Tasha Low scored her first nomination in an acting category for her work in Coded Love, alongside Cynthia Koh (Hope Afloat), Lynn Lim (Kill Sera Sera), Meixin (Born To Shine) and Ya Hui (Coded Love).
“When I heard that I was nominated, I asked my manager, ‘Are you sure?’ Because I never thought I’d be nominated for an acting award,” said Low. “I think I still have a lot to improve on, so it’s a real honour.”
