With casualties from the 5-level fire in Wang Fuk Court, Tai Po, the members of the boy band MIRROR made a concerted effort to comfort the victims. Despite rumors on the Internet that Anson Lo went to the scene to move supplies, it was a case of mistaken identity. However he actually has privately comforted an affected "disciple" (fan nickname) through video chat. His heart warming behavior has received praises.

Recently many artists have either cancelled or postponed their events to mourn the Wang Fuk Court fire. Anson Lo not only sent supplies to the affected "disciples" through the fan club, but also personally made a video call with a fan to express condolences. Some "disciples" posted online, "We didn't follow the wrong person. When he does charity he isn't advertising it. I wish the affected victims would be able to tide over the difficulties. All of us Hong Kong people are with you!" Some fans described the idol as an "angel on earth", "He knows that his strength can bring hope to others!" A photo leaked on the Internet saying that Anson Lo personally came to the scene to help transport supplies, but it turned out that someone with a resemblance to him. The person in the photo was actually Jack Lo, a contestant of "KING MAKER VI".

MIRROR members who silently participated in the disaster relief also included Anson Kong (AK) and Tiger, who went to Tai Po to distribute meals to cheer on the victims and volunteers. Some volunteer drivers had eyes on them and tag them online in their comments. "Hong Kong people have an abundance of love. From now I would listen to your songs more." In addition some Wang Fuk Court residents posted that they had no date to return home, felt infinite despair, and tagged Edan and AK on social networks in hopes of getting them to send them encouraging words. Edan immediately sent encouragement. "Let's go! I know that it definitely isn't easy now, I hope to be able to give you strength. Everyone must work hard and hold on." AK also said, "Let's go, I hope to be able to give you strength. I hope you and your neighbors can continue to hold on. I am praying for you!" On the other hand, a 72-year-old grandma who passed away in the fire was a fan of MIRROR member Ian. He was very heartbroken upon hearing the news, and later posted a post in all black on social networks to express his condolences.

As for ERROR member Dee Ho Kai Wah (Ah Dee), the Tai Po resident has not updated his social network after the incident. Some fans have expressed concern. He wrote a long post yesterday morning about the topic of inner healing. "I know that some people have seen my lack of updates, and become concern as they know that my family lives in Tai Po. I am very sorry." He added that the reason for not sharing information at the time of the incident was because there was a lot of information online. Since he was unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood, he decided to leave the traffic to those in need.

Many artists have extended helping hands. Benny Chan Ho Man's model wife Jiang Lisha recently shared a video of donating materials through social networks. She pulled a cart full of food to the donation point, and then the rescue team distributed the supplies to the victims at the shelter center.

TVB's "Tung Wah Charity Gala" held last night was renamed in Chinese from "Joy Fills Tung Wah" to "Kindness Fills Tung Wah", and the fundraising projects made drastic changes from the past performance items to to singing to raise funds to support families affected by the Tai Po fire. At the beginning of the program a moment of silence took place. After the ceremony, the "Godfather of Rock" Donny Summer (Ha Siu Sing) led Pal Sinn Lap Man, Benjamin Yuen Wai Ho, Joey Thye Cho Yee and others to sing songs such as "Never Give Up" and "Childhood" to cheer up the victims. Ha Siu Sing said before his performance, "On October 26th, the whole world saw a tragic disaster in Hong Kong. In a moment homes and families were lost. Kind-hearted people, your donation would help the victims. My team and I want to tell them, hold back the tears and muster up the courage."

In addition, the difficult stunt fundraising project originally scheduled with Benjamin Yuen Wai Ho on a motorcycle last night was also cancelled. He was asked in an interview yesterday if he would feel sorry for the cancellation of the performance. He said, "Tonight we are working together to raise funds for everyone, hoping to help friends in need. I have to adjust my emotions. As a performer, it's really not easy. Donate or contribute however you can."

Singer Miriam Yeung Chin Wah held a series of 6 "Miriam Yeung Live MY LIVE 2025" concerts at the Hong Kong Coliseum last night as scheduled, and her friends in the circle who supported her in the audience included Rosamund Kwan Chi Lam, Anna Ueyama, Alex Lam Tak Shun, AGA (Kong Hoi Ka), Yumiko Cheng Hei Yi, etc. Due to the recent fire in Tai Po, she hoped to give back to the society with practical actions. In addition to donating the first show proceeds and all profits from the 6 show peripheral products for charitable purposes, canceling the gift of flower baskets and adjusting the content of the performance, a one- minute silence ceremony was held at the beginning of the show to mourn the victims of the accident.

As soon as the show started, the venue was pitch black and the screen was filled with subtitles. "The recent serious fire in Tai Po has taken many precious lives and caused many families to fall into grief. Let us mourn the dead in the disaster, the firefighter who died heroically, and extend our deepest condolences to their families and the injured. May the dead rest in peace and the injured recover soon, and may every person affected regain courage and strength. Life is impermanent, but we choose to live well, sing well, and cherish it." After Chin Wai and the audience closed their eyes and observed a moment of silence, she appeared in a white top and jeans, with feather hair accessories on her head, and sat on the two-story high "glass boat" to sing "Old Land" and "The Best Debt". One of Chin Wah's original red costume was changed to black and platinum overnight. Reportedly most of the visual effects have been deleted in the first performance after alteration overnight.

Recently many online posts have been talking about the fire at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, among which Donnie Yen Chi Tan's wife Cissy Wang and Tyson Yoshi's wife Christy have reposted speculation about the cause of the fire on social networks. Due to wording issues, some online have been upset. Cissy and Christy have deleted the content as soon as possible. Cissy posted an apology. "Today I reposted some inappropriate words in my story. In order to avoid misleading or causing misunderstandings, I have already delete the content right away...... I am very sorry for not noticing the original author's inappropriate wording. Thank you all for your reminders."

Yen Chi Tan and Tyson have recently sent warmth to the victims. Yen Chi Tan has enthusiastically made donations, while Tyson has donated HK$ 1 million worth of home appliances to show their infinite kindness.

Singers George Lam Chi Cheung and Sally Yeh (Yip Sin Man) are currently on a concert tour in Chengdu. They and the staff are saddened and felt very heavy hearted after learning about the fire disaster. Although they are in Chengdu, they still care about Hong Kong. So they specifically recorded a chorus "Each and Every Night" for Hong Kong people during the rehearsal to encourage everyone to tide over the difficulties, mourn the victims, and pay tribute to the firefighters and volunteers who are bravely fighting in the disaster relief.

South Korea's annual music event "2025 MAMA AWARDS" came to an end last night under the haze of the fire of the century fire in Tai Po, Hong Kong. Earlier rumored to be absent, Chow Yun Fat finally appeared in the finale and presented the grand prize "Artist of the Year" to the king of the music scene, G-Dragon (GD). He also expressed his condolences and cheers on the spot.

The "2025 MAMA AWARDS", which returned to Hong Kong after a seven-year hiatus, was held for two consecutive nights at the main venue of Kai Tak Sports Park in Hong Kong. A few days ago, a deadly level-five fire broke out in Tai Po. Originally scheduled to perform on the first day, Hong Kong boy group MIRROR and the Oscar award winning Best Actress and the guest of honor Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King) were absent. As the guest of honor on the second day, Chow Yun Fat was rumored to be absent as well but finally appeared as scheduled to present the award at the finale. Wearing a black suit with a black ribbon buttoned on his collar, he mourned the victims. He got choked up before presenting the award, saying, "Good evening, I have a small request. Please rise and send heartfelt wishes to the residents of Wang Fuk Court, Tai Po." Then he led the audience to observe a moment of silence. Afterward he presented the "Artist of the Year" to GD, the leader of the group Big Bang, during which the two held hands and hugged and made GD feel shy. This is Chow Yun Fat's first appearance on the stage of "MAMA" after many years. Back then he danced to the divine hit "Gangnam Style" with Big Bang and male singer Psy. Yesterday he awarded GD the "Artist of the Year" and the two shared the stage again, which surprised music fans.

In addition, GD won three awards in a row. He also won the "Best Dance Performance Male Solo" and "Best Male Artist". Wearing a black suit, he mourned in a heavy tone: "I don't know what to say, I hope everyone will cheer together. The people of Hong Kong have sunken in a sudden nightmare. I want to be an artist who would be able to bring strength to everyone. In order to send strength to the citizens who have experienced the tragedy, I have worked hard to prepare for tonight's performance. I hope everyone will look forward to it, and I hope everyone will cheer up!" Later when GD accepted the "Best Male Artist" from his close friend in the circle Lee Soo-Hyuk, he said that this was the second time Lee Soo-Hyuk has presented the award to him and hoped to have the opportunity to present the award to him next time. He also said that he would dedicate this honor to Big Bang teammates, friends, family and the team who worked hard together with him. He immediately gave Lee Soo-Hyuk a thumbs up, and Lee Soo-Hyuk responded, "GD is also an artist I like very much, please continue to bring handsome performances in the future."

As for the popular girl group aespa, it won "Best Choreography", "Best Dance Performance Female Group" and "Best Female Group". One of the awards the popular boy group Stray Kids was "Album of the Year", and the members could not help but burst into tears when they gave their speech. In addition, the demon boy group Saja Boys from the popular anime "KPOP DEMON HUNTERS" was originally scheduled to be performed by members of the boy groups BOYNEXTDOOR, RIIZE, TWS and ZEROBASEONE, but it was decided to cancel due to its background setting coming from the underworld. The members of the girl group BABYMONSTER transformed into "Demon Hunter HUNTR/X" to perform the hit song "GOLDEN", and "KPOP DEMON HUNTERS" was also awarded the "BEST OST" award.
