Kasey Cheung
Producer
“I’ve worked in Causeway Bay for 15 years. There are a lot of music and production companies in this area. In Catic Plaza, there are five to six floors of post-production companies. I’ve worked here for so long and have gotten to know a lot of people – whether it’s my old colleagues, the security guard in my building, the cleaning lady or people who work on other floors. People who work here tend to see the early morning or very late night scenes of Causeway Bay as we finish work really late. All the taxi drivers line up to pick us up from work – even they have a lot of regular customers. The best part about working in Causeway Bay is that no matter how late it is, we can always get late night food and drinks and explore the nightlife.”
