The host clapped & praised Leon.

L : Yea...
T : ( in Korean ) A little bit...
L : ( also in Korean ) A little bit!
H : ( in Korean ) A little bit!
L : ( repeated in Korean ) A little bit!
H : Why don't you speak several words?
L : ( in English ) Oh yeah! ( All laughed ) Hmm...
H : ( suggested in Korean ) I Love You!?
L : ( in Korean ) I Love You!? ...( All laughed )...

T : You met him ( the host ) 2 years ago...
L : Yes! Yes! I remember meeting him in Seoul Hotel!
T : At that time he also signed...he also got your signature...
L : Yes! Yes! I remember meeting him...right! Because now...just now I saw him thought he's very familiar, but I've met him 2 years ago...really so long ago!
T : Really remember?
L : Yes really! Really remember! But I don't know he's a DJ...you know I don't know!
T : Just started 3 months ago...as a DJ.
L : Congratulations! That's great to audience! ( All laughed )
T : ??
L : No! No! That's true! That's true!
H :( Tried to speak in Mandarin ) Thank you!?
L : ( Demonstrated using Mandarin ) Thank you!

T : He ( the host ) has seen "City of Glass". He thinks that your character in "Comrades, Almost a Love Story" & "City of Glass" are similar! Maybe they're both having sad love experience.
L : Hmm...Eventually this time is happy...this time "City of Glass"! It's very happy!
T : Really?
L : Yes!
T : It's good in the beginning but at last...
L :At last it's also good...it's a good opening!
T : So it's very happy...
L : Yes! Basically everyone has a good memory...Everyone must have different love...must have!
T : Do you think...like the love in "City of Glass"...do you think it's good or...
L : Hmm...a love that can't help! Basically when they are together...because in "Comrades, Almost a Love Story"...in the middle there isn't...Maggie Cheung she has a replacemnet...she has Eric Tsang...But I was having no replacement! But in "City of Glass" when they're in love...they're seperated...but both of them have replacement...having a panadol...to stop the pain!
T : He ( the host ) is a bit worried about you, having kept acting in that kind of movies, would your life be changed...really changed to that kind of love...( the host was laughing )
L : I can't help even if really changed! But...hmm...movies are...in the world of movie love is basically...basically never die! But...I also took part in a wide variety of action film, but maybe the company here in Korea they only accept this kind of movie more! Maybe they like this kind of movie!
T : In you life before...what most beautiful love experience do you think you have?
L : Most beautiful love is...memory is the time when you yourself know very well how to give your love! It's very happy in fact when you continuously giving your love!
T : About when do you think...
L : Don't mention...
T : With whom!? ( The host & translator both laughed )
L : Don't have to mention whom! I only say...this is a feeling...that is...of course at last you must...this kind of love must be painful, right!? Because real love is not just one party who is giving! But I think when giving you basically is a...must have this feeling!
T : ( Laughed after hearing what the host said ) You don't dare to tell him more... ( The host was laughing )
L : ( Immediately ) No no no...
T : With whom...
L : Even if I tell you don't know her...but even tell you don't know anyway...but basically I think love is like this! When you have different memories, & also haven't...when you start to understand you will know : "Oh! This is love, this is love..." Then you would be happy...
T : Probably that girl...should be feeling herself very lucky!
L : Oh! I believe in this world...one never feel himself lucky when he's lucky! Right!? Just like the lyrics in this song ( "Never Ever" ~ theme song of "City of Glass" )...that is: "People would treasure only when they've lost"!

T : He ( the host ) heard that you like Korean food...
L : Yes! I like eating Korean food! I like eating Korean food!
T : You must like eating very much right?! So you just joked that...you'll become an animal soon!
L : Yes! Yes...( All laughed ) Animals are those good animals but not....
T : ( Laughed after hearing what the host said ) He ( the host ) also knows that it's just kidding...( the host was laughing )
L : Right...Haha... ( Leon also laughed )
T : He ( the host ) also heard that you like the winter in Korea. So do you like snow...do you like skiing?
L : I like skiing! I like ski...
T : How about snow? Do you like snow?
L : I like snow!

T : Your status is...
Leon:( immediately ) Why didn't he say a good singer but... ( Leon & the translator laughed )
T : In Hong Kong as  a singer...how high is your status?
L : Don't have to mention the position! One must have to leave this showbiz one day! The most important thing is being happy & enjoy while you're in!
T : 2 years ago you got a lot of awards in the prize giving ceremony in Hong Kong... ( Laughed after hearing what the host said ) He ( the host ) said probably Hong Kong is very very small that's why you got so many awards!( The host was laughing )
