Winning the Best Mainland and Taiwan Film at the 31st Hong Kong Film Award, the Taiwan film YOU ARE THE APPLE OF MY EYE's director Giddens Ko along with actors Michelle Chen, Ko Chen-Tung and others attended the ceremony.  After the event, the entire YOU cast went to Kowloon City for hot pot casserole.  The YOU team of almost ten gave a speech together at the Hong Kong Film Award, but because they spent too much time and the next guest was already scheduled to appear, director Giddens Ko who was to speak late was forced to take his exit.  The situation was rather awkward.  Giddens Ko later replied, "I am not upset, I am already very happy that every actor got to speak.  I have already said my piece at many previous events."

Director Giddens Ko, Michelle Chen and Ko Chen-Tung were guest presenters.  Giddens Ko suddenly forced a kiss on Ko Chen-Tung and Ko Chen-Tung did not know what to do while Michelle Chen was all smiles.  Giddens Ko said, "Ko Chen-Tung didn't know that I would kiss him.  I only planned it in advance with Michelle Chen."  Ko Chen-Tung complained that he definitely would not save his kiss with Giddens Ko.  Because Michelle Chen and Ko Chen_Tung will come to Hong Kong to work on different new films, they were busy on their own.  Thus after returning to Taiwan they would not celebrate.
