Shawn Yue Man Lok and Miriam Yeung Chin Wa in LOVE IN THE BUFF (CHUN GIU YU JI MING) were not only stars but also performers of two songs.  The film's original soundtrack was officially released today.  Earlier Ah Lok worked on the music video for his song FLOOD (FAN LAM).  Ah Lok even directed.  That day he even picked up many LOVE IN THE PUFF classic scenes.

The shoot took place on a very humid and hot day that rained many times.  Yet Ah Lok still insisted on shooting on location in the alley where he and Chin Wa met in PUFF.  Ah Lok also kept communicating with the cinematographer and even tried his hand on the camera for the best result.  Later the team went to an overpass in Kowloon Bay and a convenience store.  Ah Lok said, "Originally Director Pang should be the one who made the music video, but he was too busy.  So I who was the most familiar with the film aside from him was responsible."  Ah Lok had nothing but praise for his new song.  He said, "FLOOD actually is from Wanting's English song DRENCHED.  I heard it and I liked it, so I adapted it."  As for the film being selected as the Hong Kong International Film Festival opening film before its release, Ah Lok could not be happier.
