The agency also grabbed the Print Kam Fan award with the same campaign.

Connie Lo, ECD at Leo Burnett Hong Kong commented, "This [the Kam Fan awards] is the best testimony of our creativity and efforts. In contrast to traditional yoga ads that mostly feature girls in typical post, we highlighted in our ads the health benefit of hot yoga - to sweat. Our idea and the line 'Sweat off your flab' was born from the inspiration of 'sweat' and 'beautiful bodies'."

McCann Erickson dominated the digital categories and scooped awards in the Interactive & Direct Kam Fan for Jet Li’s One Foundation and Media Kam Fan for Coca-Cola’s Happy Whistling Machine.

There were no winners in the Broadcast, Ambience and Integrated Kam Fan categories. 10 Golds, 23 Silvers and 51 Bronze awards were given out this year. Under the 'Let Others Let Others Know’ slogan, the organisers of the event pushed for a show with no scam ads.
