Hong Kong-based screen legend, Chow Yun-fat, famous for his admirable fitness regime, recently made an unconventional gesture to show gratitude to his fans. To promote his latest film, “One More Chance,” Chow chose to run to the cinemas across the city showcasing the movie.
The 68-year-old actor embarked on this journey accompanied by Will Or Wai-lam, his on-screen son in the movie, alongside director Anthony Pun and producer Huang Binqi. The quartet was spotted visiting several theatres in Wong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui, where they interacted with excited fans, reported topick.hket.com.
Interestingly, the group’s most extended jog spanned a distance of 5.5km. Yet, Chow displayed remarkable resilience, maintaining his composure as he conversed with fans upon reaching the cinemas. His arrival sparked a frenzy, with fans rushing to the cinemas upon hearing news of his unexpected visits.
The meet-and-greet event attracted not just local fans but also admirers from South Korea, Hawaii, and Italy. In a demonstration of his linguistic abilities, Chow conversed with them in fluent Korean and Japanese.
Responding to the enthusiastic turnout, Chow confessed that despite his sweat-drenched state post-run, the overwhelming support from his fans brought him immense joy. His commitment to fitness was further highlighted when he altered his running course to cheer on students taking public exams, a move that won him more praise and endearment.
