August 22, 2009 - Ekin and Nikki Attend 4th Salvation Army O Day Start Ceremony
Ekin and Nikki participated in the Salvation Army's annual Hong Kong to Macao orienteering race start ceremony. The race will be on October 14, 2009. This is the 4th year Ekin and Niki have held the office of race start ambassadors. Ekin revealed that he has planned the route and game play for the participants several times. Immediately reporters asked him if his girlfriend went with him. He indicated that she had not. This year the proceeds will go to help the Salvation Army's relief efforts in Taiwan. Ekin and Niki as representatives of the Salvation Army accepted a check for $50,000HK from three people toward the disaster relief.
Recently Ekin joined his original Young and Dangerous cast members at a fundraising concert for the Taiwan disaster. They sang " Friendship Age" one of the best known songs from the series. Reporters asked Ekin whether he would reprise this role again also. Ekin explained that at the concert the director Andy Lau was all smiles that they were all participatiing and rode the popularity of the movies. As to whether he would film Young and Dangerous again they should ask the Director. Personally if the director asked him to film again, he would have to think about it. not because he has no interest any more. The movies were made a long time ago , but if one was filmed he would be worried at the influence it would have on the social atmosphere of Hong Kong. So now he does a lot of charity work and that is better.
Niki was asked about the reports that she does not get along with Jade. She said that she really hadn't given thought to this issue. Looking at Ekin, she commented that she collaborates with males very well.
