Conceiving notions about Hong Kong

In preparation for my four months in Hong Kong, I've decided to pre-familiarize myself with the culture (or at least with the YouTube media). I got the idea to seek out HK videos after I heard about the provocative (from my culturally-biased perspective, at least) ritual , Happy Corner.

Other findings include a famous four-year-old photographer, young Hong Kongers who spend a lot of time thinking about money, high octane parkour tours of the island combined with an educational contemporary perspective, impressive breakdancing at the University, and my favorite, the picturesque Hong Kong dreamland.

I'll update this. If you know of any good ones, please post.

Thank you for sharing your research. This will come in handy for a friend who will visit HK in December. Bon voyage!
