Best Actor Louis Koo Tin Lok has recently been troubled by an eye disease, pointing out that he had two holes in the retina of his right eye. The "eye floater syndrome" was very serious, and he would need to undergo eye surgery. Then he would need to recuperate, and his work plan might be affected!

When Best Actor Louis Koo Tin Lok (Goo Jai) recently appeared in public events, he often wore sunglasses. The outside world has been very concerned about his health. In an interview the day before yesterday, Goo Jai admitted that he was troubled by eye disease. "There is a problem with only one eye, and the retina of the right eye is perforated with two holes......that's why eye floaters syndrome is so severe, a lot of black lines are flying around. Wearing sunglasses darken the environment so it would not be so serious." He also said that surgery has been scheduled, "I can't wear contact lenses before surgery, I have to recuperate for the first week after surgery. I can't fly for a while, which will affect my work. I am still arranging the schedule right now."

However Goo Jai's recent work schedule has been jam packed. Films he starred in and his company invested in would be released in the mainland one after another. After BEYOND THE SIN (NGOK HUNG JI OI), he starred with Chrissie Chau Sau Na in the film BEHIND THE SHADOWS (SI GA JING TAM, formly titled MEI CHUI). It will also be released in the mainland on the 31st of next month. Although neither has any Hong Kong release date yet, their release should tightly follow. Now Goo Jai is suffering from eye disease, work has to be postponed one by one. Who would know whether the promotion of BEHIND film will also be affected.

In addition, he, Sean Lau Ching Wan and Takeshi Kaneshiro (Gum Sing Mo) starred film SONS OF THE NEON NIGHT (FUNG LUM FOR SHAN) has been selected for the "Midnight Screening" section of the Cannes Film Festival in France. About the foreign media's optimism for the film, Goo Jai felt happy. However he expressed that he has not seen the latest version either, only the 4 to 5 hour long edited version.
