Linda Chung Leaves Hong Kong With Son​


1643552259105.png


After attending the 2021 TVB Anniversary Awards, Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣) left Hong Kong last week to return to her family in Vancouver.

At the end of November, Linda brought her 3-year-old son Jared back to Hong Kong with her to handle some personal matters. Some speculated that her ambitions were set on the TVB Best Actress award, given the timing of her return during the Anniversary Awards season despite the troublesome quarantine requirements.

Despite her memorable performance as Dr. Eman in Kids’ Lives Matter <星空下的仁醫>, Linda was unable to clinch the coveted award, and instead won the consolation prize of Malaysia’s Favorite TVB Actress. Many fans felt that Linda deserved a win, since she has been nominated for Best Actress 11 times.

Visibly disappointed in her acceptance speech, Linda stated she is uncertain when she would be able to film for TVB again. “I am nervous, but I am also very calm in facing situations. I know that there won’t be much of a chance to attend another ceremony, because I probably won’t be returning to the studio so I really want to enjoy the moment,” Linda said afterward.

With two young children in Vancouver, Linda thinks it will be at least one year she visit Hong Kong again. As many of her dedicated fans have followed her since the start of her career 18 years ago, they hope to see Linda again soon. “There will be an opportunity, trust me. I still think there is always a chance,” the actress responded.

Catching Up With Old Friends in Hong Kong

During her two-month stay in Hong Kong, Linda’s schedule was packed with meet ups with her close friends and colleagues. She posted many photos of her gatherings with Frankie Lam (林文龍) and Kenix Kwok (郭可盈); Paul Chun (秦沛) and his daughter Leslie Chiang (姜麗文); Leanne Li (李亞男) and Grace Wong (王君馨); and Damian Lau (劉松仁).

Since her son accompanied her on the trip, Linda took Jared to Hong Kong’s Disneyland during the trip. She intended to stay for a short period of time, but given the fifth wave of the pandemic, her flight back to Vancouver was delayed until January 19.

On January 20, Linda posted a photo with her son at Hong Kong International Airport to bid her friends and fans goodbye. Many fans immediately messaged the actress to return soon to film more dramas.

1643896654819.png


Born in the Year of the Tiger, Hana Kuk (菊梓喬) is expected to have a difficult year ahead according to Chinese fortunetelling. Although Hana has never been superstitious, she heeded her friends’ advice that it would not hurt to counteract the bad luck since she is a celebrity.

Consulting a feng shui master, Hana was advised to prepare many things over the next two years leading to 2024. “They said that I am the type of person who is easily unhappy and tends to overthink. They told me to try be happy as I will get sick if I am unhappy. In my mind, I am a very positive person because I always face adversity with a positive mindset. I’ve accepted that the world is a very realistic place. I was very stubborn in the past, and would always argue and refuse to give in to my two bosses. Now, I’m easygoing and pretty calm.”

As to whether she received a fortunetelling on her relationship luck, Hana will leave it up to fate. “It’s about feelings, and we need to mutually like each other!” However, she shared that she wants to date and get married, “I’ve always wanted to start a family since I was young, but it really isn’t easy…. I am currently waiting–I feel that I’m the type of person who would elope quickly if I meet someone that I like.”

She does not mind if he also works in the entertainment industry, but is adamant about waiting for the right one. Asked if she currently has pursuers, Hana replied, “Some. I don’t dare think about it. I’m the kind of person who will get scared the more I want something. I need to think about it first.”

When asked about her dating rumors with Ron Ng (吳卓羲), she shyly dodged the question stating that he did not come to watch the New Year’s Eve concert for her performance. “He came to watch Aaron Kwok (郭富城), and I just so happened to be there! He only came to watch a show, and now you guys are already asking if we’re dating.”

As they are friends, Ron did ask if she had extra tickets. “I gave them to him, but I don’t know if he ended up buying [tickets] himself.” Continuing to give vague answers, Hana said they are currently good friends and that she likes good people. As to whether she would consider him, she replied, “Okay, I guess!”

1644065780803.png


4 Feb – Despite it being a month already since she accepted her Best Actress award at the TVB Anniversary Awards, Rosina Lam recently admitted that she has yet to have a proper celebration for her victory.

In an interview with Mingpao recently, the actress, who won for her performance in "The Battle of Seven Sisters", stated that she has been busy filming her new drama as well as making sure not to socialise too much due to the pandemic.

"I received a lot of congratulatory messages from seniors like Wayne Lai, Roger Kwok, and Charmaine Sheh, and I was very moved. But I have been busy filming and even had to shoot all night the next day," she said.


Luckily, she has friends like Joel Chan and Nancy Wu who helped her to organise a small party.

As for cousin Raymond Lam, Rosina said the actor and wife Carina Zhang sent their congratulatory message, but that even the actor is too busy to celebrate with her.

Rosina said, however, that she was moved by her husband, who has been silently supporting her, while her mother also wept with joy for her success.

"My mum didn't approve of me becoming an actor. But when I called her to announce the good news, I can feel that she was very excited," she said.

At this stage, the actress said that she will concentrate on work and put her plan to have children on hold.
