Karena Lam Ka Yun yesterday attended a baby nursing room event. She felt that Hong Kong was still not too supportive of breast feeding in public. Foreigners would do so directly. Actually it was a beautiful moment, she hoped Hong Kong would have well equipped nursing rooms.

Ka Yun looked much thinner. She explained that lately she has been working on the Taiwan film HUNDRED DAY FAREWELL. The director asked a lot of her. Her character was a person in mourning, so the mood swings would be huge and rather difficult. She felt that the hardest part was the director asked her to act like she was not acting, the performance had to be very natural. Ka Yun said, "The director would always grab me to talk about the film and bombard me. Actually I was already completely exhausted." This time she had an intense three week shoot, during which she missed her daughters. Yet sh was also very happy to return to work. However, Ka Yun said that she already told her manager from now on for any work abroad less than two weeks would be the best. Her daughters this time complained that they did not know where Mama went. Her younger daughter even woke up in the middle of the night to look for Mama. Luckily she had her husband to take care of them. She praised how fitting her husband was in the role. While in Taiwan she told stories to her older daughter every night, but she did not dare to video conference as she was afraid that her daughter would break down and cry. Would Ka Yun have more children? She said that she would not, two were enough.
