Main Points
Japanese former adult‑video actress and current DJ Maiko Hamazaki (浜崎真緒) was hospitalized in Hong Kong during the Halloween period after a suspected drug‑poisoning incident. She reportedly experienced seizures and was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Urine testing later returned positive for four different substances. Hamazaki was discharged from the hospital and, on 6 November, appeared at a press conference for the television series Your Security Li Bao'an (你的保安李寶安). It was her first public appearance since leaving the ICU. In the interview she described the ordeal as “terrifying” and said that most of the toxins had been eliminated from her body, but that full recovery would take another week. She thanked Hong Kong medical staff for their prompt treatment. During the event Hamazaki carried a “test needle” that she claimed could detect drugs. She demonstrated the device and joked that she would use it before accepting tea from a co‑star. Director Ho Jut‑tin (何爵天) laughed, comparing the device to an ancient silver needle used for poison testing, and promised to include a drug‑awareness segment in the show. Hamazaki also spoke about the psychological impact of the incident. She said she still experiences flashbacks and urged people to stay away from drugs. In a light‑hearted moment she mimicked a classic Cantonese phrase, “企硬，唔 Take 嘢!” (“Stand firm, don’t take it!”), while shouting a drug‑prevention slogan in a mix of Cantonese and English. The press conference also featured a performance by 11‑year‑old actor Li Ka‑lin (李鎧霖), who plays a scout character in the series. Li was praised for his sharp wit and energetic portrayal. He responded to a question about being called “old” (老積) by acknowledging the nickname and then recited a famous line from the actor Lam Min‑dong (林敏驄) in full, earning applause from his co‑star Li Sang‑jung (李尚正) and the audience. The event was held in Hong Kong and marked Hamazaki’s return to the public eye after her health scare. Article source: Sing Tao Electronic Daily | Image credit: Sing Tao Electronic Daily
