finally my favourite actor Nick Cheung get the best award... every year i waited him to receive the award.. this year finally he made it.. congrat to him!!
Congratz Nick I'm sure he's waiting for that rewards for so long now, hope to see more of his film in future^^
I think it's awesome that Esther looks so happy in that pic with Nick. She looks happier than if she had won the award herself. I haven't seen her since she quit Best Selling Secrets, so it's good to see her, even though I wished it was in a new show.
