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.
We're glad that Louis had an unforgettable experience while he was there, and we hope to see him back in Malaysia soon. What are your thoughts on this?
