L'OFFICIEL Singapore: Hi Blue! February is about celebrating love. What is love to you? 
Blue: Personally, family is my definition of love. No matter what happens, they are and will always be with me through my peaks and valleys, giving me full support, cheering me up, and congratulating me on every success. Unconditional love is my perception of family.
What is your idea of the perfect gift for your loved ones? 
The gift that I would like to give to my special and loved one is time. I am working most of the time, and my schedule can be quite random. Therefore, when I have time, I would like to spend it with my family. Time is the best gift in my opinion.

&ldquo;I WANT everyone TO WAIT AND SEE WHAT WE HAVE IN STORE. IT IS SURE TO BE ANOTHER exciting AND SPARKLING YEAR.&rdquo;

What is your idea of a romantic gesture? 
I do have an idea. The romantic idea of mine is to observe every detail, even little or obvious, of my loved ones. This is so that I can surprise them with what they like on their special day. This sounds romantic to me. Because love is not only about saying that you love someone but expressing it with your actions that come from the bottom of your heart.
You have worked with Swarovski for a while now. What is the most memorable experience for you thus far? 
All of them are memorable experiences. My favourite one is when I had a chance to participate in the Swarovski exhibition in Shanghai. There were a variety of customised costumes embellished with Swarovski crystals, and they were stunningly beautiful. I would say that was a wow moment for me.

What is your goal for 2024? 
My goal for 2024 is to have achievements in my acting career and to have each of my series being successful. The other plan is to focus on fashion projects because I truly love and am passionate for fashion.
