Hi All,
"I am going to Japan on next week" or "I am going to Japan next week."
"I went to HK in last year." or "I went to HK last year."

No preposition is required. If you would like further clarification, please ask.
Thanks for your prompt reply. But I'd like to know, the sentence as follows, should we use preposition.
In next week, I'll go to Hong Kong.

in, on, at are not used with next, last, this, that, one, any, some, every, or all (I think that's all of them). They are also not used with yesterday, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day before yesterday.
I just wrote up a blog article on this, read more on using prepositions.
Hi Macanundo, thank you for your information. But sometime I hear people say "At this time" "In this time", are they incorrect?
"At this time" is perfectly correct as are "at that time"; "at any time"; "at one time"; "at all times".
Hi bhaisahab, can I say "We have dinner at ABC restaurant at 8 p.m. tonight"? Is the sentence correct? Please advise.

It's better like this:
"We will have/are having dinner at the ABC restaurant at 8 p.m. tonight"
Strictly speaking you don't need "p.m." and "tonight" one of them would suffice.
"We are having dinner at the ABC restaurant at 8 tonight." If we use "We are having", does it mean the dinner is already started?
No, because you have a future indication with "at 8 tonight".
