From TVB News World: The 2009 Mr. Hong Kong contestants met with the press at a fitness center in Mongkok earlier in the week. Under the guidance of fitness instructors, the 12 contestants demonstrated on a variety of fitness equipment to show off their big muscles. This year's "Youth" group had only four contestants, while the "Mature" group contained eight people. The general quality of the participants was mediocre; most of the men were on the short and thin side. Wong Yi Hing look-a-like, Kim Li Wai Kin and "Pitman look-a-like”, Ng Wan Fu were the popular contestants. Both men admitted that they had girlfriends already. The 12 contestants wore sportswear outfits at the press conference yesterday, with each person displaying their muscles. As the MC at the event, Sharon Chan Man Chi noted that Kim Li and Ng Wan Fu had the most potential. Sharon has served as a judge in the Mr. Hong Kong contest each year. She felt that the quality of this year’s contestants was quite good. Aside from appearance, it was also important for the contestant to possess talent. Regarding the short stature of this year’s participants, Sharon explained that some of the “Youth” contestants were still young. Height was not the most critical factor, it was important to consider internal qualities as well. MORE HERE...
