Edison Chen bites back at Juno Mak


Edison Chen who has been in exile after leaving Hong Kong on 28th February since his nude photos scandal saw his fashion store “Juice” re-opened on 18th April after renovations although he was once again missing in person.

Meanwhile, he has reportedly gave his first interview to an online fashion portal, HyperBeast since his exile with his arrogance still not lost in an expletives-laded interview. He also gave his word that he will be back and also asked for a 1-on-1 confrontation with Juno Mak who had earlier claimed that his fashion line was street-corner fashion while his was high-end fashion.

In the photoshoot for the interview, he wore the latest design from his fashion label, “Business As Usual” and took pictures for promotion. But Edison continued to be mysterious, using his cap to cover his eyes without much change to his figure. The interview was reportedly conducted through email in english and he obviously hinted some “injustice” towards Juno Mak for targeting him indirectly through several news reports. You can read his interview at hypebeast.com.

Since the nude photos scandal, Juno Mak has indeed seized the opportunity given to him by indirectly snatching into Edison Chen’s territory in a series of moves aimed at taking his place.

Juno Mak who had an affection for Gillian, gave Edison Chen a roasting on radio in the aftermath of the scandal, claiming he was the “ultimate scum among all scums”, obviously trying to use Edison to score points with Gillian.

Immediately after, A Bathing Ape boss, Tomoaki “Nigo” Nagao who had been Edison’s close friend had a concert with Juno. “Silly Thing” records (under Juno Mak) even snatched Farmers (Edison Chen’s colleagues) concert dates.

When asked about Edison’s return to the fashion line, Juno said his label, “Silly Thing” was high-end fashion and were different from Edison’s fashion line. He labelled them as street-corner fashion. When JUICE reopened ater renovations, none of Edison’s rumoured girlfriend attended while the number of people attending was sparse. In contrast, when Juno had the concert with Nigo, Edison’s rumoured girlfriends like Fiona Sit, Amanda S, Rosanne, etc attended.
