Sleeping in a bunk bed until the age of 24, it\u2019s fair to say Lawrence Leung has never been cool. Join him as he encounters trendy fashionistas, road-tests professional pick-up lines and stumbles head-first into a hardcore breakdancing championship – all in an attempt to settle the score with his infinitely-cooler, bass guitar-playing brother. What is \u201ccoolness\u201d? Is it all a myth? And does doing a show about the notion of cool ultimately make one uncool? You decide.<\/p>\n
