HK Star Louis Koo Said He Fell In Love With Penang & Prawn Mee After His First Visit
Many Hong Kong stars have shared their love for Malaysia, praising the locals and the food. Actor Louis Koo (古天乐) is one of those stars, saying he fell in love with Penang after his first visit. The actor was recently in town to promote his new action thriller movie, 'Behind The Shadows (私家侦探)'. For the press tour, Louis and co-stars Chrissie Chau (周秀娜) and Phei Yong (培永) visited the Megamal Pinang and Gurney Plaza malls in Penang. While the 54-year-old has visited Malaysia many times, this recent trip was his first to the northwestern state. However, Louis said it was enough for him to fall in love with Penang. Yesterday (10th June, Tuesday), the actor updated his Weibo account to talk about his recent trip to Penang. Louis expressed awe at local fans' support, writing, 'I went to Malaysia to promote the 'Behind The Shadows' movie and attended the premiere at the Mega Cineplex in Penang. There were a lot of fans for the movie, and the scene was very lively!'. However, what caught fans' attention was his sudden proclamation of love towards the state. Louis wrote, 'Although this was my first time in Penang, I've fallen in love with this city'. The actor specifically mentions the local delicacy, prawn noodles, saying, 'The human touch and the delicious prawn noodles here are unforgettable.' He ends his post by promising to return soon, adding that he'll remember to take more photos with fans the next time he's in town. The Weibo post garnered the attention of local fans. In the comments section, many Malaysians thanked the star for visiting the state, noting that most press tours are limited to Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley. Others also expressed joy over being able to meet Louis during the meet and greet, sharing photos of their interaction with the actor. Some also invited him to return to Penang, saying he should try other local delicacies the next time he visits.

(Video) HK Actor Louis Koo Praises The Acting Skills Of Local Stars Tan Li Yang & Phei Yong
Over the weekend, the cast of the upcoming Hong Kong movie, 'Behind The Shadows (私家侦探)' dazzled fans at the Malaysia press tour. While in Kuala Lumpur, the stars met with reporters and shared some stories from the movie filming. The movie stars Hong Kong actors Louis Koo (古天樂) and Raymond Wong (黃浩然), as well as actress Chrissie Chau (周秀娜). The film is also significant for having several local talents in the cast, including media personality Phei Yong (培永) and actress Yumi Wong (黄诗棋). One of the questions asked during the press conference was about working with Malaysian talents. In response to the question, Louis has nothing but praise for them. The renowned actor specifically mentioned actor Tan Li Yang (陈立扬), who wasn't at the press tour due to work. Louis praised Tan Li Yang's performance, especially during emotional scenes, saying, 'He had a scene where he had to grieve for his girlfriend. His two takes were enough to move people, but he had high requirements for himself. When he wasn't satisfied with the first take, he asked for a re-do'. Louis said the actor's dedication was what earned his praise. Meanwhile, Phei Yong gave himself zero points for his acting, noting that he still needed to polish his skills. However, Louis contested, saying that Phei Yong has a bright future in acting. The 54-year-old even said, 'His acting isn't bad at all. Out of 100 points, I'd give him at least 60 points'. Castmate Raymond Wong also praised the Malaysian star, saying, 'He (Phei Yong) said he was nervous during filming, but I think his acting was very good'. The Hong Kong cast also spoke about filming in Malaysia. Unsurprising, the stars mentioned the food here, saying they loved the local cuisine. Chrissie also revealed that she had to restrain herself from eating so much as she had to be in shape for an upcoming project. However, she said she gave in because she couldn't resist chowing down on her favourite Malaysian dishes. We're glad the cast had so many fond memories from the filming. 'Behind The Shadows' will premiere nationwide on 12th June 2025 (Thursday).
