Flower in The Pocket

Photograph taken by Gan Siong King

The first time I saw Ming Wei during auditions, I thought he looks a little like James Lee. A young James Lee. But of course he's much better looking than James, no doubt. Hahaha!

He's not a bright student. He's a bit slow when it comes to understanding what's happening in the film and his memorization of his lines is terrible, amazingly terrible.

He's very in touch with his emotions even at this young age. That's one thing I like about him. I remember his headmistress from school came to us(after knowing that Ming Wei got the role) and told us about how excited and happy she is for him because he proved to the rest that even though he's weak in his studies, he could excel in something else. I'm happy for him too. For a kid with zero knowledge and experience in acting, he did not bad, not bad at all!
