As someone who’s born and raised in Hong Kong but had lived overseas in many different countries for 30 years, I get so emotional and am truly moved by your video. Over the years, the more I traveled or the longer I lived in another country, the more I realised what a unique and beautiful place HK is … Finally chose to move back for good a year ago and am feeling grateful everyday for being able to call HK my home again. Yes, HK has changed tremendously over the years and this is not the same HK I grew up in but the whole world has changed … To me, HK is still one of the most beautiful, dynamic, diversified, efficient, compact, … and most importantly safe cities in the world and will always hold a special place in my heart. ❤

This is what Bourdain's last foray into Hong Kong should have been more like. The storytelling, the history, the tides of change. A masterpiece.

Come on man, the story telling, the cinematography, the colour, the light...absolutely astonishing. Attaché has always been beautiful to watch but this is an absolute other level.

I had tears in my eyes during certain moments of this video. The nostalgic imagery of the 90s & early 2000s really brought back great memories. Your voiceovers really shows that you live, breathe and love Hong Kong, much like many of us far and wide. It was both heartwarming and heartbreaking to relive through these 20 minutes of all the wonderful highs and the devastating lows of the city. You were really spot on when you said this city loss it's voice...figuratively and literally. Hong Kong has indeed changed drastically over the past 5 years, but I will always be proud to tell people I'm from Hong Kong. Thank you for creating this masterpiece. - A Hong Kong born, Canadian.

Not even joking. You were the person that made me go to Hong Kong in 2017. I remember watching your Hong Kong videos in the 2010s. I will never forget that trip. That was my first trip outside the US.

As a local HKer borned in the 80s I, like many others, have experienced tremendous changes in this city especially of the turmoil since 2019 and the COVID time where every pillar of this city has been crushed to rubble... and I am speechless watching your episode that a "gwai lo" (foreigner in Cantonese) has truly realise the uniqueness and beauty of Hong Kong, to visit places even I haven't been to. While many of us are planning to leave or have left, I sincerely believe there are still something worth to preserve, like what you have portraited. Thank you so much for the tribute. Thank you for giving me hope.

Currently serving in the U.S Navy, Hong Kong was my first port visit on deployment and it happened to be one of my first foreign cities to visit. Coming here as an 18 year old was other worldly. Calling it a culture shock would be an understatement.

Thank you for loving Hong Kong! I share your views. I lived there for 12 years. Got my PHD from HKU and lived in many places from Central, a boat in Aberdeen, Kowloon and Yeun Long. It's not over! Glory to Hong Kong!

You and Greg have created an absolute masterpiece - Attaché’s best work yet!

I left Hong Kong in July 1971 and have returned only once for a holiday I would dearly love to return to stay there as it was simply the best place I have ever lived Hong Kong gets into your soul and beer leaves you I miss being there Hong Kong will always be in my heart

This channel has been so consistently great over the years and it deserves more recognition.

You made me cry. The pain, the disappointment, the loss, the beauty, the uniqueness, the essesnce of je ne said quoi. This is a beautiful masterpiece. Thank you.

this video is so accurate in so many ways, it's heartbreaking; especially how you were able to contextualise the last 6 years with clear eyes and heart, and the bittersweet personal perspectives. masterpiece.

Adding my voice to those of others who love Hong Kong and were very moved by this incredible, reflective and visually stunning ode to a unique city - thank you!

As a hong konger who left to study abroad a year ago, This is one of the best video that described the dramatic change of Hong Kong in 20 mins. This is awesome, thank you so much for making this video!!!

You've actually done something that has always been attempted but rarely, and I mean rarely, accomplished--getting into the soul of this wonderful yet fraught city. This really is a masterful piece

I was completely captivated by this episode. I never too my eyes off the screen from the moment it started until the very end. Absolutely brilliant work. Hope you’re proud of this one because you should be

I'm watching this with pride and a tear in my eye. I moved here from the UK with my family in 2016 and immediately fell in love with the city. As a photographer, I've spent many a day wandering the streets (my favourite neighbourhood is also SSP), trying to capture the heart of this wonderful city. Yes, it has changed drastically over the last few years, but is still an amazing place to both live in and visit. Thanks for your video and I look forward to you recording your next visit.

As a foreigner who's lived in Hong Kong for the last 19 years, I deeply relate to this video. It's an amazing tribute to the deeper side of Hong Kong, its evolution and its culture. Thank you for putting in a video what I couldn't express.
