In the spotlight

When Rain Li Choi-wah was on the MTR one day, a man from a casting agency approached her and asked if she was interested in doing TV commercials. He invited her to an audition the next day. She went with her mother and the agency was happy with her performance, so they offered her a contract. She signed it the same day.

At that time, she was barely 15. She was given her first assignment two months later. She has since appeared in many commercials, magazines, music videos, films, TV dramas and stage dramas.
