Dior Cheng Yi Kin, Jordan Chan Siu Chun, Michael Tse Tin Wa, Chin Kar Lok and Jerry Lamb Hiu Fung's YOUNG AND DANGEROUS (GOO WAT JAI) film series two nights ago moved to the Hong Kong Coliseum stage. The quintet performed a concert for the first time. They not only performed the film theme song for a collective memory but also performed solo to express their love to their wives, which made the originally "mob flavored" scene very romantic and touching.

The Protection of Consumers' Right did not affect Cheng Yi Kin, Chan Siu Chun, Tse Tin Wa, Chin Kar Lok and Lam Hiu Fung's first concert, as usual it started 25 minutes later than scheduled. The quintet appeared with bottles, cash and playing cards to perform a series of fast songs from the YOUNG AND DANGEROUS film series. Finally they even smoked cigars and displayed their Wise Guy true nature!

The five "Wise Guys" took turn to perform, but the characters were switched around. Ekin was responsible for a thrilling fight scene as he and the male dancers went back and forth. A giant wooden box suddenly struck him and knocked him to the ground, stunning the audience; on the other hand with his stunt man background Chin Kar Lok played the piano and sang to his wife Angela Tong Ying Ying SAME SECOND. He said, "This song is very meaningful to me, on my wedding day a good friend sang it to me. I practiced it for several months, I hope to sing it tonight for my other half!" The tenderness of the tough guy moved the entire audience. When he was about to remove his gloves to play the piano, Hiu Fung joked, "He ultimately is a martial art superstar, he has to use his fists to play the piano."

All five wives" were present. The other four expressed their love on the stage as well; newlywed this year, Cheng Yi Kin kept singing "Yoyo" to the tune of the first part of CITY WIDE RESPONSE (CHUEN SING HAU YING) ; when Tse Tin Wa performed YOUR LOVE, the other four sang LOVE TINA in harmony for him. When Chan Siu Chun sang DEPENDENCE, the other four sang "Ding Ding" (Cherry Ying Choi Yi). She blew him kisses from the audience. Siu Chun replied with "I Love You" and the venue roared! Lily Hong Chi Nei was a background singer. Lam Hiu Fung sang PUT OUT THE FIRE to his wife as the other sang "Lily".

After knowing each other for 20 years they performed their first show together. Cheng Yi Kin said that his friends the Grasshoppers affected him, as he thought that YOUNG AND DANGEROUS could also team up for a concert. With his TVB contract ended Tse Ting Wa joked that he performed because he was unemployed. As the other 4 asked if he would jump to Mr. Wong's company, he avoided the subject.

Lam Hiu Fung said to Tse Tin Wa, "I am unemployed too! I signed for 6 shows a year and they are already done!" Midway through the concert, the quintet without any safety harness sat on a giant neon sign that was two meters in the air and performed their new song DISAPPEARED TIME. When they descended, Cheng Yi Kin planned to flip over but slipped. Luckily he was not injured.

During "encore", they took turns performing. Chin Kar Lok again kissed up to his wife. When he sang WITH ME ALWAYS he pointed at Tong Ying Ying and said, "With you always!" Chan Siu Chun after singing GOD! SAVE ME was asked if he sang it for Ying Choi Yi, which he quickly denied. Then he looked at Ying Choi Yi and said that they chose it for him.
