Photographic Incident

On August 22, 2006, Hong Kong newspaper Easyfinder published a series of photos of Chung inside a changing room after a Twins concert at the Arena of Stars in Genting, Malaysia.[2] The pictures were taken while she was in the changing room with her personal assistant. One of the cover photos shows Chung's bare back as she is fixing her bra backstage. Her breasts are not revealed. A second, smaller cover photo shows Chung undressed and naked from the shoulder up. The headline read, “Ah Giu releases bra near back window", using Chung's Chinese nickname.[3] Hong Kong celebrities such as Jackie Chan staged a public protest denouncing the magazine's irresponsible actions.
