Winning Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards Best Actress for the movie THE WAY WE TALK (HONG NGOR GUM TIN JUM MOR SUET), Chung Suet Ying was honored to be nominated for the Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress. However she was the happiest that the song she wrote the lyrics for, WHAT IF, would compete for "Best Original Film Song". She said, "It is the first time I have been nominated for the Original Song Award, and I am so happy that I know how to describe it!" Speaking of the strong competition that included her THE LAST DANCE co-star and good friend Michelle Wai Sze Nga, she pointed out that all of them are fierce rivals. Although she has won the Golden Horse Best Actress, she did not feel particularly confident. "Everyone did a great job, I just sent a message to Wai Sze Nga first about some nonsense. (Harassing the enemy?) Life isn't always about competition, we can talk about life! Ha ha! If she would win, I'd be very happy!" She also laughed and said that they both also loved to eat and share information about food from time to time. Did she get many more jobs after winning the Golden Horse Best Actress? She actually said, "New opportunity seems not to have appeared yet!" Fortunately she had different jobs, such as DJ, lyrics, modeling, etc. Even if she did not make a movie for a whole year, she could still earn money by writing.

As for another opponent, first time Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress nominee Tam Sin Yin said that she also liked each of the nominated films. "I have always liked Chung Suet Ying a lot, she is a flexible actor; Natalie (Hui Yan Yi) is young, cute and radiant, and her energy is so high; Michelle just keeps pushing the boundaries and I'm happy for her!"
