Last Tuesday, I attended the gala premiere and post party of the local Chinese New Year comedy, HOMECOMING《笑着回家》, thanks to the folks from Homerun Asia.
The movie stars top comedic talents from both Singapore and Malaysia like Jack Neo, Mark Lee and A Niu.
It was a light, heart-warming movie, perfect for some feel-good moments during the Chinese New Year. A group of bloggers from the omy Blog Club attended the premiere too, check out their reviews.
After the movie, we proceeded to the Gallery Bar at St James Power Station, right opposite Golden Village at VivoCity where the gala screening was held. A small, cosy post party was held there where the bloggers got to meet some of the cast and crew, up-close-and-personal. Here are some photos taken at the event:
HOMECOMING《笑着回家》opens in Singapore cinemas on 3 Feb (this Thurs ). Be sure to catch it for Chinese New Year! 🙂
