Jat See-yeu inked this large calligraphy work impromptu at the filming studio during a TV interview in 2008. Expressed in broad, sweeping and splashing strokes in a roving, uninhibited style, the two characters fang huai (embracing with an open heart) channels his open-minded, carefree spirit and encapsulates his values for personal conduct.
