Mandy Wong (黃智雯) will be filming a TVB period drama with Kenneth Ma (馬國明) and Niki Chow (周麗淇) that takes place in the early Republic Era of China. Filming will start in April and the cast and crew of the series will be heading to Foshan in June to shoot outdoors scenes. Mandy has already been busy preparing for her role as a seductive lady in the series. To better understand her character, Mandy watched several Cantonese films revolving around the tragic lives of young female servants. Although she will develop a crush on a character named Luk Wing in the series, she did not reveal who portrays him. “It’ll be a secret for now!” When asked how large the seduction scale will be, Mandy replied, “Television-sized. My character will seduce men in a reserved way.” She is unafraid of sparking romantic rumors with Kenneth, since they have collaborated in the past. Furthermore, Mandy realized she needs to keep her body fit for the series. Her earlier vacation to South Korea with good friends, Myolie Wu (胡杏兒) and Nancy Wu (胡定欣), led to a slight weight gain. Mandy exclaimed, “I ate more food during the trip than usual and gained a few pounds.” Speaking of TVB’s new dating show, To Woo a Dame <搵個好男人>, Mandy said she does not mind taking part for work purposes. Asked if her boyfriend minds her participation, she replied, “It’s just work, and I can treat it as an opportunity to make new friends.” Mandy sees the show to be entertaining and hilarious, full of men with various talents. “The contestant who did the Latin dance was pretty interesting as he sang and danced,” she said. When it comes to dancing for her own boyfriend, Mandy added that she is willing to do a jazz dance for him as long as the result is good. She exclaimed, “I’m fine with wearing a revealing top along with a pair of fishnet stockings.” Creds: ONcc
