The highly anticipated Korean legal drama Law and the City has premiered with a spotlight on Hong Kong, thanks to a collaboration between the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) and leading Korean broadcasters.

HKTB played a pivotal role in facilitating the production, arranging for key scenes to be filmed at several of Hong Kong’s most recognisable locations. The initiative aims to leverage the international popularity of Korean dramas to promote Hong Kong as a premier travel destination in Asia and beyond. In the second episode, which aired on July 6, a memorable 20-second scene featuring the lead actors sharing a romantic kiss on the Central–Mid-Levels Escalator has already captured viewers’ imaginations, infusing the city’s landmark with cinematic romance.

The partnership between HKTB and Korean entertainment companies is part of a broader strategy to attract international productions and showcase Hong Kong’s unique urban charm through film and television. Upcoming episodes promise to feature more of the city’s visually striking locations, further enhancing Hong Kong’s profile among global audiences and K-drama fans.

By integrating Hong Kong into the narrative of a high-profile K-drama, the HKTB continues to position the city as a must-visit destination, hoping viewers will be inspired to experience its cinematic allure firsthand.

The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) has reopened “Winter Wonderland in Central” in Statue Square from December 10. In addition, the “Starlight Boulevard” on Chater Road and the “Immersive Light Show in Central” will also be launched. The launch ceremony of the light show, which was scheduled to be held on November 28, will be postponed due to the influence of the Tai Po fire.

The “Immersive Light Show in Central” will feature winter icons through projections, LED animations, and lighting effects beamed across the façades of eight iconic buildings in Central, together with holographic projections on installations and trees in Statue Square. HKTB hopes the event will spread warmth, hope, and blessings of peace to all the people in Hong Kong. Moreover, the event partners will also donate the proceeds to support people in need.
