MC Cheung Tin Fu, Ling Man Lung, Eric Kot Man Fai, Ashina Kwok Yik Sum, Heidi Lee Ching Yee, Candy Wong Hei Yee and Eelyn Chan Yi Lam yesterday along with director Sunny Lau Yung attended the ONE NIGHT IN SCHOOL (YEH HAU) premiere. The film was MC's first, and he said that he had no box office pressure. "The hardest is the production process, but it has already passed. I feel I have already done all I could so I have no problem. For a comedy, the most important is the audience reaction. It is also the key. I believe everyone after watching would feel the spark between me and Ling Man Lung was decent. I would go to see the audience reaction, whether they would laugh or not."

MC revealed that in one scene Ling Man Lung and his girlfriend argued while he had instant noodles next to them. He had three bowls in a row and could not eat anymore. Lau Yung said, "MC had no experience, the first bowl he took big bites and even said it was delicious. By the third bowl he could no longer take anymore and change to eating strand by strand. He asked me when would he be done?" Would there be more audience appreciation shows later? MC said that he would do all he could to make time and thank the audience for their support. Ling Man Lung said that it would depend on the film company's arrangement. Recent Hong Kong film releases performed average at the box office. Would they be concerned? Ling Man Lung said, "I perform with the effort that I want to give to the audience, it still needs to depend on timing, location and people." MC said that he was not familiar with film and was not too certain, but he has already all he could. He hoped that everyone would support the film more. Would he attend more audience appreciation shows to pump up the box office? He felt that company would make arrangements. As for going live online to promote, it would depend on the situation. Lately he has been working on a film and has been busier. "I rushed over right after work to attend the premiere." He knew that many fans have booked shows and thanked the Fu Second Generation. Speaking of Hong Kong films' planned Taiwan releases, Ling Man Lung also hoped that ONE NIGHT IN SCHOOL would be released in Taiwan and go to even more places, or air on streaming platforms so even more people would get to see the movie and know them.

Kwok Yik Sum was said to look a little different. She explained that perhaps she got thinner due to weight loss. Lately she has been busy with exercising and eating healthy. As for her rumored breakup, was she thinner due to heartbreak? She said, "We haven't broken up, only turned the relationship low key. I hope everyone would pay attention to my work." She pointed out that she and Lee Ching Yee in ONE NIGHT IN SCHOOL had to wear heels and keep running, after which both her toes and heels had scratches and bruises.

Lee Ching Yee reportedly looked like Korean girl group Blackpink's Jisoo. She said, "Who is playing such a big prank, comparing me with a Korean star. I am worried that Jisoo's fans would be upset and attack. I really like Jisoo too, but I don't feel we look alike. She is too perfect." With a romance with MC in ONE NIGHT IN SCHOOL, Wong Hei Yi said that the relationship in the film was very light. She looked forward to the chance of making a sequel. She was not worried that MC's fans would be jealous, because it was just work. Playing a corpse, Kot Man Fai joked that he could vie for Best Actor.
