    Hong Kong sweetheart Miriam Yeung's latest film "Hooked on You" is due for release Thursday. The film mirrors the development of Hong Kong Island, tracing the evolution of a busy food market over 10 years.

    Miriam Yeung plays Miu, a fishmonger who sets out a plan to change her life before she turns thirty. Her counterpart played by co-star Eason Chan works in the same market. Both found the task of killing fish for the film, challenging.

    Miriam Yeung said, "The director asked us to do it all by ourselves, and we must appear quite skillful. "

    Director Wing-Cheong Law has frequently worked with Johnny To. He won a Golden Horse award in Taiwan for "Best Editing". But he always wanted to direct. "Hooked on You" is his second film as a director.

    The film also features Huang Bo, who shot to stardom after his role in "Crazy Stone". He continues to develop his unique comedy talent.

    Huang Bo said, "I play a butcher who is a good friend of the two fishmongers. All the three are simple and forthright people, and sometimes conflicts are just inevitable. "

    Nevertheless, it's a film about good people and Huang Bo says, they are all lovely characters.
