Hong Kong actress Angela Yuen has publicly demanded an end to misogyny and sexual harassment prevalent in the regional film sector. In a social media post, Yuen shared personal accounts of inappropriate conduct, including unwanted physical contact and verbal harassment from male industry peers, such as directors and journalists. She specifically described an incident where an experienced actor kissed her without permission during a production. Her essay, originally featured in City Magazine under the title 'The Apologies That Will Never Come,' highlights a recurring pattern of unprofessional and discriminatory behavior. By speaking out, Yuen aims to challenge the systemic issues and toxic culture that she believes continue to undermine the safety and dignity of women working in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
