Michelle Yim fainted after suffering from altitude sickness whilst filming an ad in the highlands of Lhasa earlier. She returned to Hong Kong from Tibet yesterday and was accompanied by her sponsors as she left the gate. Although her sponsors had sent a press call out for the media to meet her at the airport, the staff with her would not let the reporters near, saying she had to rush to the hospital for a check up.

In the end, it was Michelle herself to agreed to speak to the press for a while. She says she is fine now and is just feeling a little vertigo. She says that the place where they were filming was a few hours drive from Lhasa at an altitude of over 4000m above sea level and the weather was very changeable, going from sunny to windy very quickly and even raining and snowing. On the second day of filming, she had a headache. Maybe because she had to run about for the shoot and look very excited and happy, she felt faint after running up a slope and was gasping very badly. Afterwards, she went to hospital for oxygen treatment.

Michelle says that this is not the first time she suffered from altitude sickness, so she knew that she would be fine after some rest and the hospital confirmed this. In an earlier trip to Tibet, Michelle's reactions were even worse when she was vomiting, so this was actually much better than last time. She says: "It is very common to suffer from altitude sickness in Tibet and it is no big deal. I do not want to put people off going there as long as you are prepared then it is fine." Asked if she will go there again, Michelle says she will because it is a very beautiful place. She also says that she was not unconscious at any point and she just felt dizzy.

When the reporters suggested that Wan Chi Keung would not let ger go, Michelle smiled: "Maybe I should listen to him." She has completed the filming for the ad, but there are comments that the sponsors are using her incident as free publicity, contacting the press to meet her at the airport and presenting her with flowers. Michelle says that there were reporters there too, but she did not know that there had been a formal press call.

Caption: Bosco Wong and Myolie Wu were completely immersed in their kiss.

Rumored couple, Bosco Wong and Myolie Wu were hugging and kissing, demonstrating that their relationship has not changed. Earlier there were rumors that the pair had split, with mainland actor, Feng Shao Feng pursuing Myolie.
Bosco and Myolie filmed an arguing and make-up scene last night for "War of In-Laws 2007." Their compatibility was obvious and the scene was completed after 2 takes.

In "War of In-Laws 2007," Bosco and Myolie play a married couple. The scene spoke of the two arguing over work, with Bosco winning Myolie over. The filming started at 12 midnight and ended at 2 AM. Before filming started, the pair were joking around playfully.
When the director requested Bosco and Myolie to hug each other, they approached each other with practiced ease. Bosco was attentive and often pushed Myolie's hair away from her face. They did not appear awkward at all.
When Bosco approached Myolie, she yelled out, "The buttons burst!" It turned out that the front buttons on Myolie's dress had burst open! Bosco said, "Wah!" and the scene was completed after 2 takes, demonstrating the pair's compatibility.
After filming, the pair said they did not feel awkward, as they knew each other well. Despite their rumors, they saw it as promotion for the series.
Bosco said, "Among TVB actors, I did not film many kissing scenes in the past. I only have 4-5 onscreen kissing experiences." Bosco noted that Myolie kissed many co-stars and that she was well-experienced.
The pair did not clean their mouths prior to the kissing scene. Bosco said, "At first I thought about eating durian before filming the scene."

It's been over a year since Shinhwa, one of the longest running Korean boy bands, has released an album. While younger boy groups like TVXQ, Super Junior, SS501 and Big Bang have been getting all the attention, Shinhwa members are concentrating on solo activities.

This summer, three Shinhwa members, Kim Dong-wan, Lee Min-woo and Shin Hye-sung are set to release their solo albums. The three singers are counting on loyal Shinhwa fans to support their solo efforts, but are also attempting to attract new fans with a more mature image.

 Lee, who was the first member to go solo in 2003, will hold a showcase concert for his third album ``Explore M'' on July 8. His album will be released on July 10.
