[2010.04.03] ETHAN RUAN IS EMBARRASED WITH DANCE SOLO

Ethan Ruan (Yuen King Tin) and Mark Chao (Chiu Yau Ting) yesterday attended a MONGA promotion. They performed yo yo tricks, danced and spoke Cantonese to be friendly. Although Siu Tin did not know how to play with the yo yo, and his dancing and Cantonese were more "rotten" than Chiu Yau Ting's, but he still made his fans very happy as they fought to hug Siu Tin.

Siu Tin and Chiu Yau Ting in the film became good friends over a yo yo. Yesterday the event arranged for them to demonstrate yo yo tricks. Fans and Chiu Yau Ting played well, but Siu Tin no matter what could not handle the yo yo. He just dragged it on the ground. Chiu Yau Ting joked that when he walked the dog, the dog was dead.

Later the event also arranged for Siu Tin and Chiu Yau Ting to deliver the film's classic lines for blindfolded fans to guess who said them. Siu Tin not only changed his voice but also asked reporters to say them for him. Then they had to demonstrated a 80s dance. Speaking of dancing, Siu Tin immediately looked troubled and joked that he had the most dance talent. They danced with fans and suddenly Chiu Tin Yau told Siu To to dance solo, Siu Tin was caught off guard. He only danced strangely and made everyone laugh. He was so embarrassed that he held onto Chiu Yau Ting and laughed.

Siu Tin and Chiu Yau Ting also knew how to win fans over. At the event they spoke Cantonese to be friendly, but when they asked fans what their "gang" was called in the film, Siu Tin instead said, "Do you know want our 'pen' was called?" Any fan who had a chance to play a game on stage would hug Siu Tin and Siu Tin did not turn anyone away.

Siu Tin explained in the film he was only responsible for giving this yo yo to Chiu Yau Ting and he did not have to play with it. In childhood he never had one either. Chiu Yau Tin spent over a month before the shoot began and learned tricks. Speaking of Siu Tin's rotten dancing, he awkwardly laughed, "Where?" He joked that he was the maddest over Yau Ting suddenly telling him to dance solo and showed him up. He said that he could not be a motion singer and that Chiu Yau Ting was better than him. Last time in Hong Kong he already understood a lot. He would keep learning in hopes of improvement next time. Did Siu Tin have any other expertise? He said that he strong suits were video games, surfing, skateboarding and swimming; Chiu Yau Tin's was basketball.

Director Niu Chen-Zer did not appear yesterday. Siu Tin said that on April Fool's Day they told the director they returned to Taiwan already. The director was somewhat mad afterward. Yesterday was not April Fool's Day but the director insisted on telling them that he returned to Taiwan. Actually they knew that the director went to a meeting.
