The Antique Shop is a Thai horror movie that features an international cast, including local actors Xu Bin and Damien Teo. They act alongside Bae Jin Young from K-Pop boyband CIX, model-actor Rio Dewanto from Indonesia, and Thai actors Phiravich Attachitsataporn and Chayapak Tunprayoon.

28-year-old Aloysius was in the midst of filming when he had to attend reservist, where the fatal incident occurred. Though Aloysius’ part in the show was unfinished, his mentor and NoonTalk Media founder, Dasmond Koh, pushed for the movie to be completed in honour of the late actor. The original movie is now a trilogy.

After a series of pandemic-related delays, filming has finally been concluded, with the movie slated to be released in Thailand on 2 June 2022. Dasmond says that the Singapore eventual  release date will be announced in time to come.

“Are you ok? Are you working hard as always in the world you belong in? The #TheAntiqueShopMovie that you started but couldn't finish has finally been finished by us, after delays due to the pandemic.”

“You know I made two trips to Thailand to watch post-production and had mixed feelings when it came to airing your clips on TV/screen. In addition to what I’ve shared with you, those things that I feel in my heart but don't want to say, you should understand without words.”

“Every member of the#NoonTalkFamily is waiting to see your performance on the big screen. Love ?”

It's been 3 years since that fateful day, and she seems to be moving on well, going full force into her work while enjoying the company of her Pomeranian Bui Bui and twin sister Hayley Woo.
