The film A LIGHT NEVER GOES OUT (DUN FOR LAN SHAN) two nights ago held a special screening. Cast members Cecilia Choi Sze Wan, Henick Chou Hon Ning, Maverick Mak Chau Sing and Mimi Kung Chi Yan attended. Sylvia Chang and Simon Yam Tat Wa were overseas but still sent videos to show their support. Guests included Irene Wan Bik Ha, Larine Tang Yueping, Philip Ng Won Lung and others.

Chou Hon Ning with LIGHT was nominated for the Hong Kong Film Award Best New Performer. He said that this film would be very important to him. He has waited for so long that he felt a little stressed. He also was very emotional as the film would open soon. Instead he would treat his New Performer nomination normally. He looked forward to good reviews the most. However would he accept any critique on his performance? He stated that his heart was very strong and would be able to, in addition opinions would be able to make him improve.

Choi Sze Wan has not yet felt the pressure of her new film's opening. She was the happiest about Sylvia Chang and Chou Hon Ning's Hong Kong Film Award nominations, especially Chou Hon Ning who already exceeded his class in his first film. While watching the film his performance even moved her to tears. The most memorable was working on the scene in which she scolded Chou Hon Ning for contributing to Sylvia Chang's delinquency. The scene required her to scold him for several minutes in one take. Fortunately only after one or two bad takes it was done. As for her own lack of nomination, she admitted that she never thought about it and would not be disappointed. The focus of the film was on Sylvia Chang's experience of losing a mate.

Mak Chau Sing brought his wife Kathy Yuen (Tong Yee) to attend his first movie's preview screening. Tong Yee said that earlier at another preview she has already enjoyed it. She certainly would give her husband a full score. Chau Sing also said that his wife has always had nothing but praise for him. Would her husband really flawless? Tong Yee said, "If I have to complain I would say that he is too 'free' normally, maybe I am too anxious. I have to praise though that he has been learning to cook lately. Men who are willing to cook are very rare." Chau Sing said that he would cook for his wife as well as his daughter, otherwise he would have no position at home. In particular his wife knew how to bake cakes, he only knew how to dance. He just wanted to learn another skill. Tong Yee has been taste testing her husband's finished products, including eggs cooked in different ways and nine different soup. However her husband was the one who ended up gaining weigh. During photo sessions he had to suck in his belly. Chau Sing jokingly asked his wife to remember to take him along when she would go running.
