Before the start of the Hong Kong tournament, where he is seeded n°4, Arthur Fils took the time to discover the culture of this region which is under China's administrative regime.

Alongside Learner Tien and Yunchaokete Bu,

"It was the first time I'd seen it. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it," said Fils after performing his dance steps.
