He only recalled the submission after a recent conversation with castmates from the Mandopop musical Partial Eclipse Of The Heart: “We were in our Partial Eclipse group chat, and my castmates were sharing about Artemis II and how it connects to our musical. And suddenly, it hit me. I went to look for Nori’s ticket.”
