Kate Tsui, who has played authority figure roles many times, recently accepted a new challenge with her new drama, "Tomorrow is Another Day", playing a female correctional services officer. On the outside, her personality is very cheerful, but deep inside hides an enormous pain from her childhood. There are definitely many "internal emotions" scenes, and she even attempts suicide for love. It is well known that being able to impact the audience in these types of scenes is not an easy thing. However, Kate was praised by the producer for acting realistically, definitely possible at a shot for TV Queen.

Kate Tsui's new challenge in "Tomorrow is Another Day" is to play a correctional services officer. To hide the fact that she has hidden pain and fear, in addition to the fact that she and Lawrence Ng has an 18 years difference relationship, Kate put a lot of effort into her look and character. Other than wearing a mushroom head wig, her wardrobe accessories are especially young, and even made special adjustments to the way she speaks, in order to convince the audience.

Speaking of the friendship between her and Harriet Yeung (Ha Tau), an officer and a prisoner in the drama, it was, however, misunderstood for love, and in the end, caused Harriet to end her life. On the other hand, her relationship with Lawrence is in between the lines (because of the hesitation in their relationship); therefore a lot of internal emotions were built up in Kate's character, and eventually explodes all at once. She even tries to commit suicide, she said: "Because of the story with Ha Tau, my character feels like it's all her fault, and in addition to many issues and problems, the explosion is huge. It was a very heavy emotional breakdown, so when I filmed it, I had to develop the emotions. I really wanted to film it in one take, but because we havd to film in different angles, I had to cry all night. Good thing the outcome was pretty good in the end."

Would never commit suicide in reality

About committing suicide for love in the drama, Kate expressed that she would never do that in real life. She stated: "There is always a reason when two people can't be together, so even if you suicide, you can't solve the problem. Putting pressure on the other side, dying or not, the feeling is still painful, so why suicide? (Then what happens if you are hurt in love?) Need time to accept it, I would let myself cry for a few days, and let out all the negative emotions and energy." This drama has many emotional scenes for Kate, and she was heavily praised by the producer for her realistic acting, and definitely has the ability to go for TV Queen. Her co-star, Lawrence Ng, also praised her as TV Queen material: "During filming, Kate put her heart into it, very professional and very easy to get along with. She is an actress who does all her homework and does it well, definitely TV Queen level." However, in terms of awards, Kate hasn't thought too much about it too much: "Everyone wants awards, but always thinking about it is very tiring. I won't choose dramas according to the chance of getting an award. No matter what, I will try my best to do well in my role. Of course, I am very happy for the producer's praises, gave me a lot of chances, like last time in "Highs and Lows". I am also thankful to the screenwriter, creating such a special role for me, so I tried my best."
