Takeshi Kaneshiro (Gum Sing Mo) is a stylish guy, so one would think that he would only be interested in a stylish woman, but the fact is he is more practical than that.

Gum Sing Mo with a strange look on his face said, "Do I look like I want to find a stylish woman? I want a person, not a type."

Then what kind of girl does Gum Sing Mo like? Long hair, short hair, tall, short?

He laughed, "Again you are setting types for me! Long hair, short hair, tall, short, fat, skinny, whatever, I don't care! The most important part is this person can communicate with me and both fel there is a connection. Otherwise even good looks are meaningless."

Having worked with beauty Kelly Chan Wai Lam twice on films, Gum Sing Mo still hasn't been deeply atracted. It wuld appear that he doesn't have that feeling for her?

"We are a feeling, but only as friends. Kelly is very lovable. The first time worked together, we weren't familiar and were strangers. Working together, I discovered that she talked more and we had more to talk about. The feeling was better than last."

Gum Sing Mo is someone who gets warm slowly. Film making is a group project, but he establishes his own world within the group. "It's not that I am not a team plaer, but I enjoy listening to songs, drawing by myself. If emotion is too high, it will affect the performance."

He said that perhaps to explain himself. Last year when rumors of Charlie Yeung Choi Nei's retirement and marriage surfaced, he was working on Anna Magdalena. When the press visited the set, he declined any interview. Some guessed that Yeung CHoi Nei who was involved in rumors with him previously has affected his emotions.

"My emotions have always been good. This time because of work, I didn't want to be distract by doing interviews. I don't know why that owuld lead to reports like that."

Is he still in contact with Charlie?

He said, "No, I read in the papers that she went to Singapore. I am busy with my own work."

but are they still friends?

"Always have been, but friendship doesn't mean that we constacntly have to meet and keep in touch. On top of that I am an introvert, I rarely would find friends."

He said childishly, "That's great! I can concentrate on work and won't be affected by unnecessary reports."

Actually silence is a way of self defense.

"The truth is, I am a quiet person."

Gum Sing Mo's silence also made his cool image stand out more, even Prada approached him to model.

Gum Sing Mo can be recognized by Americans through this brand name ad, he also planned to take courses in America. (He already did)

"Not because of breaking into Hollywood, but because I also need to improve myself."

Gum Sing Mo currently is focused on his career. When asked about his emotional life, he gave a helpless look.

He said, "Because there isn't one! I don't know how to answer that, so I am helpless."

Not only in romance, he is also helpless about his actor status. "In Hong kong, I am considered a Taiwan actor, in japan I am considered be to a Hong Kong actor, in America I am considered to be a Japanese actor. I myself can't sort it out anymore."

Actually, it's not important to have a clear identity, as long as every knows Gum Sing Mo exists.
