Once upon a time, I had a tiny role in a film called 2 Fast 2 Furious. Coincidentally, that film was released in theaters on June 4th,2003, which happens to be my birthday. Fast forward to 2010. With June 4th being just around the corner, I am once again thrilled to have a film that I participated in hit theaters on the day I was born. This time, it’s an even more unique experience being that this is my first principle role in a Hong Kong film.

“Gallants” = Kung Fu + Comedy + Drama.

In a nutshell, I play a prick who thinks he’s a martial arts expert because he’s studied for a few years and won a few non-meaningful tournaments. I know, nothing like me at all. LOL.

The film is starting to make it’s rounds in the film festival circuit and will be released in Hong Kong theaters on June 4th.

For your viewing pleasure, here is the trailer for “Gallants”.

    Jin,Haven’t you back to Hong Kong, I began to pay attention to you,Until now, also have for a long time. I want to say is, in your influence of hip-hop culture,more and more Chinese people like it now. At this point, you’re doing very well. In addition, I personally think in Chinese rap feeling than English rap lasting appeal a lot less. I hope you can seriously study Chinese, and I hope you can make Chinese rap become better and better.At last,congratulations for your film,keep doing what you doing.Your fans.
