Four MIRROR members Edan Lui Cheuk On, Jer Lau Ying Ting, Keung To and captain Lokman Yeung attended the celebration after the Hong Kong Film Awards. Nominees Edan, Jer and Keung To all went home empty handed, but they were not disappointed. Jer said, "Many people have already been nominated many times, like Sammi said she herself was nominated many times already before winning the award. Actually it really is very hard, I am already very happy with the nomination." Losing the Best New Performer Award to the 10 year old actor Sahal Zaman (Lam Lok), Edan also agreed. "I didn't expect to win, getting the nomination I was already secretly very happy. I have zero disappointment completely. I instead feel Lam Lok on the stage is really very cute. I am happy for him." Did he feel like he lost to a child? He said, "What is the problem with losing to a child, he really performed very well. I myself actually still have a lot of room for improvement. I am truly too new, I have a lot of places that I haven't done well enough. Thus losing s also very normal."

They were excited about being able to participate in the Hong Kong Film Awards, where they saw many superstars. In particular they were in the same location as the Oscars Best Actress Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King). When she received the applause from the entire crowd they were rather moved. They too wanted to get a photo but unfortunately they did not have the chance. Later the event finally arranged for the four to pose with the fresh out of oven Best Actor Sean Lau Ching Wan. Fulfilling their wish the four were very happy. Keung To even raised the victory sign out of excitement. They were very humble and polite during the photo shoot, as they left the center spot for Ching Wan. The friendly Ching Wan not only shook hands with the four but also joked, "Don't worry, everyone. I won't join MIRROR."

Lokman before the Awards picked Edan and Jer to win, but they did not. Lokman joked that next year when group mates would be nominated for an award again, he would learn to pick the competition. Speaking of Sammi Cheng Sau Man winning the Best Original Film Song, Keung To was not disappointed over the loss and felt the it was very reasonable for the elder to get the award; when he learned that Sammi publicly praised his RAIN OR SHINE was very suitable for the film, Keung To said thank you for her appreciation. Keung To at the celebration kept humming songs and was made fun of for wanting to sing more. He joked that it was because he has already warmed up. Edan pointed out that Keung To perhaps relaxed after the award show ended, so he sang a few more verses. The four before the Awards cheered each other on. Did Keung To pick the two brothers too? He awkwardly smiled and said, "I wouldn't dare to say it again in the future!"
