Guy group P1X3L member George Au Chun Ho made his debut in the movie VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH (BUT SEH JI JUI). He played the role of "Ah Lok", a young rapist who has been released from prison after completing his sentence. He took advantage of Good Friday to promote the movie, pretending to be a "sinner", lifting the giant cross alone, first walking slowly on the busy streets of Causeway Bay, then taking off his shoes when he went to Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui. Barefoot, he lowered his head and carried the cross silently, occasionally "getting into character" and showing painful expressions.

George walked barefoot for about 15 minutes, attracting the curious eyes of many passers-by, including foreign tourists, to take pictures. George's fans accompanied their idols along the way. After completing the "Road of Atonement", the soles of his feet were stained and blackened, but he was not injured. He was not worried about his actions being questioned as taking advantage and upsetting the Christians.

When George was interviewed, he still answered media questions in the tone of his character "Ah Lok", saying that he was deeply sinful. Even if he imitated Jesus to go to the Way of the Cross, it was still not enough. He predicted that for the next promotion he may try crucifiction, but he would still be dressed. As the character he said, "I felt a little strange in the process, and I was very unaccustomed to it. However I didn't pay much attention to the eyes of others. I didn't consider that the bottom of my feet might be injured. After all, I did something wrong. The pastor is very busy and didn't come today (yesterday). I am not the only one he wants to help." George revealed that as the character, he interacted on social platforms with people online; he also said that when the new film would be officially released, he would continue to imitate the characters to attend the audience appreciation events. He said that with too many performances, his thinking would also become confused.

Recently, online rumors claimed that P1X3L, which he formed with Phoebus Ng Kai Yeung and Marco Ip Chun Wan, would be disbanded. George said that he had no idea. Earlier, ERROR member Denis Kwok Ka Chun (193) participated in the basketball game. While scrambling for the ball, he was suspected of injuring his waist. George who also played in the game praised 193 for his performance. "Everyone who played on the court put a lot of effort into the game, 193's injury was unexpected. Maybe he was too focused, and he injured it unconsciously. I hope his pelvis was okay."
