The Elanne Kong Yeuk Lam and Chapman To Man Jat starred new film LOVE LIFTING (GO GUI OI) will be released at the end of the month.  In the film Kong Yeuk Lam played a weightlifting athlete.  Earlier Kong Yeuk Lam said that she reached 120 pounds for this character.  Now she has already returned to her previous shape.  How did she gain weight?  She said, "At the time I ate everything and drank weight gaining powder.  I almost wanted to vomit because I couldn't take the milk smell."  Elanne in the film had to gain weight.  Ah Jat instead had to lose 30 pounds.  They joked that if they could switch then it would have been great.

Elanne in the film had the challenge of lifting 30 kilograms and she had to lose weight.  She admitted that at the time with the endless kneeling down and getting up to lift weight she was injured.  However she had a lot of fun at the production.  As for emotionally, because it was a tragic film and during the shoot she was fat and had short hair she seemed to have changed completely.  At the time she did not dare to go out and look at the mirror.  Was this movie the toughest of her career?  Elanne admitted that she had stress but the character was not easy to play due to the ending.

Ah Jat in one scene was crushed over a car.  Because she was a weightlifter she kept trying to lift the car to save him, but he had to hold back his tears.  He said, "When I made a series with Tse Shuet Sum, in another life and death scene Sister Sum had to play dead.  I couldn't hold back my tears.  Finally it had to be shot again. Since then, in order to keep from affecting the shoot and co-stars I would try to hold back my tears."
