HK actor Louis Fan ate 7 durians during 3-day stay in Malaysia: 'Too delicious'
Hong Kong actor Louis Fan recently visited Malaysia to support his wife, Chinese artiste JJ Jia, during her concert in Genting Highlands on July 19.
During his stay, Fan, 52, took advantage of the durian season to indulge in the King of Fruits.
In a recent update on Xiaohongshu (Red Note), the martial arts star shared several photos of himself enjoying durians in Malaysia.
He also made a stop at the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, snapping a photo to mark the visit.
'Finally experienced the joy of durian freedom. I ate four durians a day and had seven in just three days. Freshly picked Musang King from the tree is too delicious,' he wrote in his post.
While Fan's durian enthusiasm delighted many fans, some pointed out that in Malaysia, durians are typically left to fall naturally from the tree when ripe to ensure the best flavour and texture.
'In Malaysia, we usually let the durian fall naturally instead of picking them from the tree,' said one netizen.
Another joked: 'Why does he look so much like Louis Fan?'
'Welcome to Malaysia,' added a third.
Fan is best known for his performances in the films Riki-Oh: The Story Of Ricky (1991) and Ip Man (2008), as well as its 2010 sequel.
He has also starred in several TVB dramas including Demi-Gods And Semi-Devils (1997), In The Realm Of Fancy (2003) and more.
