Chow Yun Fat Fan’s Heart-Warming Tale Shows Why The Icon Is So Beloved By Everyone

I think we can all pretty much agree that screen icon Chow Yun Fat, 68, is one of the nicest Hong Kong celebrities.

Much has been said about how down-to-earth and friendly he is, and ever-obliging when it comes to selfie requests – well, unless you disturb him while he’s running like these fans.

A netizen recently shared a heart-warming tale about her encounter with Fat Gor.

In a post on Xiaohongshu, the female fan revealed that she was dining at a Hong Kong eatery when she noticed the star sitting at a table across from her.

He appeared unassuming, dressed in his signature all-black workout gear.

“Having a meal in Central and ran into Chow Yun Fat who’s seated opposite us. Should we ask for a photo together?” posted the fan, along with some paparazzi-like snaps of Fat Gor.

As the fan didn’t want to disturb Fat Gor, she waited until he was done with his meal before approaching him for a selfie.

“We said we didn’t want to disturb you and your friend while eating. We waited until you finished your meal to say hello,” the fan told Fat Gor.

To her surprise, Fat Gor replied: “I’m sorry for making you wait so long. Come, stand in the middle, let’s take a photo together!’” before proceeding to snap three selfies.

Many netizens were envious of the fan and took to the post to praise Fat Gor for his sweet gesture.

“It shows how humble and down-to-earth he is,” wrote one netizen.
