The Steve Yuen Kim Wai directed, Angus Yeung Tin Yue, Macy Ma Sihui Louis Cheung Kai Chung, Candice Yu On On, Catherine Chau Ka Yee, Jacquelin Chong Sze Man, Zhang Na, Law Ho Ming, Lan Jing, Chris Collins, and others starred action film INEXTERNAL (LUI YING OI HUP) has not yet been released but has already attracted the attention of international film festivals. It made its world premiere at New York Asian Film Festival.

To show his sincerity, Yeung Tin Yue flew to New York to appear at the premiere and promotional activities, achieving three "firsts" in Angus' life - in addition to his first appearance at an international film festival as a leading actor, he analyzed the other "two" firsts. "It was my first time to attend a film festival, and it was also my first trip to New York. As soon as I arrived, I felt a sense of deja vu that made me feel quite relaxed. INEXTERNAL's world premiere in New York means a lot to me. Growing up, I have loved watching Hollywood superhero action movies, and INEXTERNAL has some Western elements incorporated into it to some extent, so it is very appropriate that the film can have its world premiere in New York. As a new Hong Kong actor, I have great visions for the future of Hong Kong films. I also hope that Hong Kong films can become more international and reach out to different audiences around the world audience."

It is rare to have close interaction with American audiences. What impressed Angus the most was the enthusiasm and support of local fans for Hong Kong action movies. Angus recalled, "The audience asked about the whereabouts of action movies. As an actor who grew up in Hong Kong, action movies have a profound influence on me. The new generation should inject new elements into action movies. The story background of this movie takes place in the two-dimensional world. This kind of plot is relatively rare in Hong Kong movies. Action movies will continue to improve, and there will be more innovations." Has Angus taken the opportunity to sightsee on the first visit? He said, "The first day I arrived in New York was also the only day I had time to go sightseeing. I took advantage of the time to visit many places like St. Peter's Church, Times Square, Wall Street and many other famous landmarks, and had very wonderful memories."
