September 12 would have been Gor Gor Leslie Cheung Kwok Wing's 56th birthday. 9 years after Gor Gor's passing, his friends and fans still miss him. Gor Gor's manager Chan Suk Fun along with her son Ka Ho and a group of friends and fans on the 12th went to Po Fuk Hill to celebrate Gor Gor's birthday. Japanese fans in the past years have sent thousand origami cranes to express their feeling for Gor Gor. This year's thousand origami crane theme was REDDEST, fans chosen red thousand origami cranes because they hoped to bring them his most suitable color, red, to him before the tenth anniversary of Gor Gor's passing. The craned numbered in 2656 to celebrate Gor Gor's 56th birthday. Even origami crane had a birthday blessing. Japanese fans will personally bring the cranes to Hong Kong and to Gor Gor at Bo Fuk Hill on the 12th.

Chan Suk Fun said that the she did not know what the 2656 cranes made. 56 was probably due to his age. This year the fans would probably continue to hold a memorial. She even planned to organize a large scale gathering next year for the tenth anniversary of Gor Gor's passing. Because fans missed him more, the event will be for the fans. It will be a show at the Hong Kong Coliseum and hopefully be broadcast to other locations over satellite so even more fans will be able to enjoy it.
