"Be careful when you unlock the door to your apartment, as there's a high chance the key will break the back window" "For convenience, when you inevitably die in your sleep from overwork, we'll simply bury you in the coffin.. I mean apartment, by pasting over the door and leaving a tasteful marker identifying the former occupant.

***** Best part is that the degree of exaggeration on my part really isn't as high as most would think it is. I mean, this is what you get when population constraints force people to mathematically compute the minimum possible space per person without killing them, and build living space around it.
Too funny! The presenter did it all without laughing. The space is just enough for a single bed, never mind chair or anything essential. My closet, in Canada, is bigger than this room.
I was very impressed to see this video by finding out Hong Kong people have this kind of sense of humour to be cynical about one of the aspects of their society. Very good.
I still remember my three-year life in HK living like this. Good thing is, the "unit" is significantly larger, and it's easy to find a place to eat. Traffic is also excellent.
the rent is actually 100 Hong Kong dollars in this video (~13 USD/day). Rent for a month is 390 USD, this may not sound a lot but you need to realize the minimum wage was only recently established at US$3.5/hr. I also heard that it is impossible to rent at this price for the same apartment now (rent went up 25-50% this past year in that region).
This video is excellent but it is also very sad to see many HK people need to live in such tiny room. My walk-in closet (the small room for hanging my clothes) is larger than it.; in Canada
An ironic approach to reflect the sad and truthful side of Hong Kong.... Really hope that the Govt would take this for reference when considering to reform the property market & housing development plan.... The current situation that lots of HKG residents are facing is truly pathetic....
I'm from post-80's generation and I've been working and saving responsibly for the last 9 years, i pay my fair share, i don't cause trouble, I just want to be able to get a mortgage for something reasonable sized (400~ sq ft) without the fear of going broke if I become ill or lose my income. Inflation has skyrocketed past salaries and landlords and property tycoons are taking all of us young people for a ride. I'm sick and tired of this, something has to change.
Hong Kong should adopt Australian style policy -- only citizens can purchase residential dwellings. Foreigner are not allowed to speculate on home properties. A government for the people will have laws protecting the welfare of the people.
It's shocking how despite the size of the room, the decorations are done so well it looks great if one just gaze on each panel of the walls individually. Of course, once you step out the place just looks like a sodding beggar's flat :p
Nothing will change until the people of HK decide it's time to change. 500k people did it in 2003, there's no reason why we can't do it again with some organizing.
地產商依家一定好感謝呢段片既作者,係佢地教識地產商真正製造咁多裝修咁靚既kings cube出來。搞到香港人既居住空間越來越窄。唉!
首先要讚此段片超正。
佢正正反映我對香港市民居住苦況既心聲。
好多香港市民,就係為咗居住的基本生活需要,便要窮大半生做生做死。
而地產商就用儘手段榨儘市民每一滴血汗錢。
更痛心既係政府卻視若無睹之外,更有係幫兇既感覺。

Poetically dystopic, efficient yet horrific

Great video ! Reflect how radiculous the HK estate market is
好創意!不過曾特首如果看過呢段片一定會覺得香港基層房屋問題不但已經解決,而且有改善。上次特首答問大會他已經說了“我們山邊已沒有寮屋,沒有臨時屋,原因是我們的房屋計劃已經陸續解決”。特首對本港房屋問題的水平如此,社會問題一觸即發是遲早的事!
濃烈的腸實銷售手法,也有趙角紅表露的誠懇影子!相當有說服力!唔知牆身會否出現經典的瀑布美景呢?
老師:以下請欣賞多角度描寫
睇堂老師笑到肚子痛
呢條片充滿香港本土特色
更反映出香港基層市民既生活百態
令到香港版國際認定為繁榮的城市
反樸歸真原始既生活
the dark humor and satire is very well done, the ending scene is a nice touch xD
好勵害啊!剛剛在TV看到就上youtube點來看, 片段好棒啊, 看出制作人的心思!
很明顯,藝術就是一間房屋的靈魂
I still remember my three-year life in HK living like this. Good thing is, the "unit" is significantly larger, and it's easy to find a place to eat. Traffic is also excellent.
部電梯不只有懷舊特色,還是意大利名廠Sabium電梯。
本身喺深水埗叫宇宙大廈已經好爆,仲要改埋做宇宙半島,like爆~~
條片有誠意,讚左~^^
幾個point:
1) 屋仔細細都可以做到咁優雅,反映有時有冇創意去arrange D 位
2) 呢個單位係日租先貴,我知道石塘咀呢類梗房有獨立toilet都係2千多~
(雖然仲係好貴)
3) 呢類單位係共用toilet / kitchen / 疏於管理先差,但其實我覺得有存在價值
(你睇下再細D,寶田80尺都好多人爭)
結論: 其實要多D管制同監管 (既然有需求時)
PS:
板間房(近日被稱為劏房甚至棺材房)
呢幾類係類似,但不一樣的東西。(好似)
拍得很不錯!
小小建議:字幕「全天侯」應改為「全天候」
稱得上宇宙之最!!
極力支持香港政府房屋政策!!
在拍攝這個片段時, 這個仍然是笑話. 更加荒謬的是, 現在的地產已經大無私讓地起真的宇宙半島, 把板間房美化, 還要賣四百萬一間.
笑中有淚... 推介, 有誠意之作品...
請特首離開冷氣房,視察下king's cube感受港人既「精品豪宅 細膩品味」
這條片子充分反映出香港的居住/房屋問題,地產霸權問題&貧富懸殊問題已經達到了非常嚴重級別. 這真正是人類社會的悲哀! 人的生活待遇像活在地獄裏,連狗貓都不如!!!
呢條片真係無得輸! 盡顯黑色幽默!!
the rent is actually 100 Hong Kong dollars in this video (~13 USD/day). Rent for a month is 390 USD, this may not sound a lot but you need to realize the minimum wage was only recently established at US$3.5/hr.

阿特手話低下層住屋問題已解決,睇嚟真係無錯
政府多年縱容炒屋的社會問題,雖然明白不是話解決就解決得到,亦都明白不是現今政府的決策,但香港政府連面對錯誤的誠意都瞴,就實在太過分,特首對香港人的漠視,真係越睇越心痛!! 香港人容忍極限係邊,香港人的自由就係邊!!
2011係諷刺,2021係寫實
This video is excellent but it is also very sad to see many HK people need to live in such tiny room.
My walk-in closet (the small room for hanging my clothes) is larger than it.; in Canada
拍得好,講得好,做得好,支持!
好一套反映香港住屋問題既video,like!
感謝拍攝及製作團隊!!
like!!!
照這算法,我家可住50個人
非常有意思的一段香港記錄片。
見到“示範單位”有少少心動,但見到個共用washroom就... X(

Solitary confinement where you pay.
So where do you make peepers and poodles?
呢個廣告簡直無慳可擊咁正
有心有力之作,讚!推!
it is not a joke, humour or entertainment, it is a bloody reality of our society.......
新一代立方體概念豪宅,
盡顯劃時代設計,
"型"造簡約家居品味。
深水埗 King's Cube!
(最尾果個鏡頭悲涼到……)
這就是有香港特色的資本主義~

有創意!十卜
'Hey baby, I got this pretty sweet cube we can go back to and get to know each other if you know what I mean...'
the meaning is: That at the end, even the real estate companys advertise ABSURDS on hk tv, someone will eventually still rent it and live inside.

希望你們下一個製作, 可以把TVB 那個"平面圖"的idea 加回. 就是那個顯示正在參觀的房屋的平面圖. anyway, good job. look forward for your next production
"Four season window"
Proving that the true uniting factor in the world is estate agents.

我loop左段片6次
間屋擺設得好靚...
無話可說~!!正到爆~!!
12 years later nothing has changed
不過我覺得可以係片尾加一段文字
表達100$/呎 同比豪宅 呎價
It's shocking how despite the size of the room, the decorations are done so well it looks great if one just gaze on each panel of the walls individually. Of course, once you step out the place just looks like a sodding beggar's flat :p
香港今次又可以 "蜚聲國際" 了! 好野!
Who's still watching in 2021? 還有誰在2021年觀看?
好like呀! 製作認真.
好好笑,但笑中有淚.........
可以加建特首府劏房,方便開閉門會議,等外賓嘗試香港大都會特色.
幽默...讚 x 100!!!!!
睇呢段片一開頭都覺得幾好笑,但唔知點解睇完之後真係有D眼濕濕…點解我地D HK人要咁辛苦?
我會將佢上推至臉書!!
反諷手法創新, 笑中有淚.
好波!!!!有誠意!!好過好多大學生所謂既作品/
原來曾凸手所講香港居住問題已解決,就係king's cube
Hope Henry Tang sees this; maybe he can go round here some time, tell residents face to face that each of them can ask why they are not Li Ka-shing
實用率100% "LIKE"!!!!!!!!!
拍得好
Wow. I'll never crab about my 300 sq ft apartment box again...
very good video
笑中有淚!感慨 獅子山下
俾煲呔加乜長物長一人一間,再開會應該咁好記單位就托到18000蚊呎租啦!
I don't think I could stand staying in that BOX for more than a day!
做得好好 謝謝你
D對白講得好正
How much does it cost? If it is around 100 US dollars a month including utilities. I would buy it!
ThoughtfulThug lol It's 12.50 US dollars.
Derek Danneker isn't that per night?
ThoughtfulThug 100 HK is 12.9$ USD, so 1 month would cost roughly 387 USD....
teh3yo That's fucked up, man! No way I would debase myself by paying that much for that kind of shitty shelter.
ThoughtfulThug it's 100hkd
This looks roomey if you're a cat.
Andy B The litter box would funk that place up fast.
Depressing. So in 30 years what would they sell? Vertical "appartments" closet spaces where you strap in for sleep?
IgnoreThisComment OrDont Did you mean capsule apartment?
我佩服住o個個人仍然肯花心思去佈置呢種棺材單位, 可見其出於污泥而不染= =
great video with excellent background music. really professional.
100% useable space! LOL
推呀~~推爆個點擊率
睇完次後真係好想租!!!
示範單位200蚊一日得唔得?
有無可能改到走廊都訓到?
Nothing will change until the people of HK decide it's time to change. 500k people did it in 2003, there's no reason why we can't do it again with some organizing.
我希望UNLIKE果D係唔喜歡樓價太貴,而唔係唔喜歡呢段片
直至棺材房響香港消失前,所有政府問責官員必須入住King's Cube!
過去的香港人在這種環境下會靠省吃省用去打造更好的住所,但現在......
"唔好玩啦冇i-phone點樣生存,買少件衫點見人,啲卡數我仲係俾僅min-pay!"
現在的香港人還有甚麼本錢去擺脫困局?
4:16 身處於16.4平方尺的單位中, 欣賞1048平方尺的天台, 是多麼的快樂.
Needs to be called the claustrophobic cube.
Nice Interior Design, Like !!!
