The Straits Times
|May 24, 2025
Home-grown actress Zoe Tay made a special trip to Hong Kong during her recent visit to China so she could meet her former co-star Damian Lau Chung Yan.
The two had kept in touch since acting together in the Mediacorp blockbuster drama The Dream Makers II (2015 to 2016), but had not seen each other in 10 years.
On May 20, Tay shared three photos taken with the veteran Hong Kong actor on social media.
"Brother Chung is still as spirited after 10 years," the "Ah Jie" (Big Sister) of Singapore television wrote. "I'm really happy to see you again and we have so much to chat about. Thank you for sharing your philosophy of life."
Lau, who played Emperor Kangxi in the Chinese palace drama
