Hoi Chun Kit posted a video to ask for help through social media on the 8th of this month. With a haggard face he cried in tears that his makeup artist wife Mok Ka Chi suffered from acute liver failure. She was in serious condition, and he urgently needed to raise medical expenses for his wife to undergo liver transplant surgery at Guangzhou Zhongshan Hospital to save her life; However after exhausting the reserve of 700,000 yuan he still owes half of it. Feeling helpless and with no choice he made the appeal on social platforms, hoping that someone who would be willing to help him.

After the news of Hoi Chun Kit's crowdfunding to save his wife spread widely, it attracted attention everywhere. With the enthusiastic help of friends in the entertainment industry such as Aaron Kwok Fu Sing, Louis Koo Tin Lok, and Eric Tsang Chi Wai, he raised HK$ 800,000 for medical expenses. In the middle of this month, Hoi Chun Kit shared a photo of him and his wife holding hands on social platforms, mentioning her latest condition and thanking those who helped him. Annie Liu On Lai also explained the situation to the outside world on behalf of her friends, saying that Hoi Chun Kit was very grateful for the care and generosity of everyone; at that time Mok Ka Chi was hospitalized in the intensive care unit of Sun Yat-sen University Hospital in Guangzhou, waiting for a suitable liver transplant and her physical condition remained stable for the time being. Yet MoK Ka Chi finally lost her life due to illness; Director Teddy Chan Tak Sum posted on social media the night before to confirm the news of Mok Ka Chi's death, "Dear 'niece' Ka Chi: I have watched you grow up since you were a child. When your mother informed me that you have gone to heaven the news is very helpless and sad...... I hope you are as lively and cute as before in another space, and live a new life without the virus!" Many online also expressed regret for this, left messages on social platforms wishing the deceased would rest in peace and hoping that Hoi Chun Kit would cheer up and take care.

The 53-year-old Hoi Chun Kit participated in the New Talent Singing Contest in 1994 and won. He signed a contract to become a Capital Artists singer and released an album, but his development in the music scene was mediocre; then he focused on making dramas at TVB. His early works include "DETECTIVE INVESTIGATION FILES III", "RURAL HEROES", "UNTRACEABLE EVIDENCE II", and in recent years, "KIDS' LIVES MATTER", "FORENSIC HEROES IV", "SINISTER BEINGS", "DID. 12", etc. After he left TVB and went to develop in the mainland he met Effie Mok Ka Chi. The two got married in 2017 and often traveled between Hong Kong and the mainland. His wife was always by his side, taking care of him from time to time. Hoi Chun Kit once said in an interview in the past that when he met Mok Ka Chi at the most frustrating and lowest point in his life, his fate was rewritten and the prodigal son returned. He was grateful that the biggest gain from entering the industry was meeting his wife. His wife's passing would bring a very heavy blow to Hoi Chun Kit.
