Louis Koo Tin Lok, Julian Cheung Chi Lam, Myolie Wu Hung Yi, Chrissie Chau Sau Na and others two nights ago attended their new film DEATH NOTICE (UM SAT FUNG BO)'s premiere. Playing three roles in the film, Goo Jai had to put on disfigured make up. He said, "The make up really helped with the character performance." Was he worried that he would truly be disfigured? He said, "It was in the summer, so all the sweat accumulated. The glue would irritate the skin but it was OK. At work I needed a fan to keep blowing and constantly had to fix the make up."

Cheung Chi Lam pointed out that the film had many action scenes and long dialogues. Luckily the production was in Cantonese, which made it relatively easier. He and Goo Jai had an airport hanger chase scene. They have worked together many times and been full of chemistry. Did he get hurt from the action scenes? Cheung Chi Lam said, "No." Goo Jai joked, "That's because I am deeply skilled!"

Speaking of 193's earlier "no audience appreciation statement" and claims that audience appreciation events were not voluntary and that he received harassment messages. Then later he still appeared to surprise fans. Goo Jai said, "Audience appreciation is from wanting to have more interaction with the audience. It would depend on my own schedule, if you are too busy then don't force it. Don't make yourself sick. Sometimes maybe you have audience appreciation events but also other jobs, leading to greater stress."

Guest star Hung Yi did not have much screen time, mainly appearing in Cheung Chi Lam's fantasy world. "I am Chilam's fiancee, my death has lingered with him. In his memory and fantasy I am like a ghost." Yet during the shoot she was almost completely stumped by his last second improvisation. She said, "There was a long dialogue that was originally Chilam's, but during the rehearsal he suddenly suggested to the director that it would be more suitable for me to say it. So I had to immediately memorize it. It was very stressful, luckily there wasn't too many bad takes. It was done in one or two takes." Playing a forensics team member, Chau Sau Na saw more "corpses" than people. However once at a night shoot, because she could not see clearly she thought the prop corpse was real. Her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
