Phi and Me is probably the opposite of Crazy Rich Asians. In fact, it is probably more Calculating Poor Asians, and that's where most of the humour and energy comes from.

My mother also works in Springvale currently, and so it was very moving to see the streets she visits every day portrayed so lovingly and accurately."
