Yesterday, Yung Mei Ling met her fans in a Chinese Restaurant.  Tong Chun Yip was also present. 

Recently, Yung Mei Ling has been busy filming “United We stand”.  She said that in early May she is going with Michael Miu Kiu Wai on stage in Kuala Lumpur for ten days.

In “United We Stand”, Yung Mei Ling performs a dual role.  During filming, a special effect needed to be introduced into this tv series so the filming time was more than 20 hours a day.  She said that it was very hard work.

Due to her short length, she mainly performed in costume drama’s the past two years.  This is because it is hard to find the actor who can acts her partner in a modern drama.  She might find an actor who can be suitable for her if she wears 4-inch-high heels.  However, if she wears high heels, it feels uncomfortable for her ankles.  So, it is perfect for her to act in costume drama.

In respect of Miss Hong Kong pageant, Yung Mei Ling has a personal view.  She said that it would be much better if a lady finishes her study before participating.  Otherwise, if a lady is elected, it will be  hard to work and study at the same time.  It would be a pity if her study was to be disrupted.
