Mandy Wong Went Undercover in Nightclubs

Last year was a very productive year for Mandy Wong (黃智雯). Aside from winning the Most Improved Television Actress awards in Hong Kong and Malaysia, 2012 was also a “bumper harvest” year for Mandy. She admitted that she earned a six-figure sum from just side jobs in the past year, bumping up her income.

Mandy has just finished shooting her latest TVB drama, A Change of Heart <好心作怪>, this past month. To prepare for her meaty role as Shiga, a prostitute and con artist, Mandy spent many days researching in Hong Kong nightclubs to grasp the proper mindset of high-end prostitutes.

“My role in Lives of Omsision <潛行狙擊> briefly went undercover as a prostitute,” said Mandy. “Other than that, this is my first time in portraying such a shapely character. I went to a lot of nightclubs to do some research. I also engaged in the nightlife of many dance hostesses! This helped with my acting a lot!”

Mandy wrapped up her shoots for A Change of Heart just in time to attend the New Year’s countdown celebrations.  Mandy is currently filming Love Reverses Three Lifetimes of Faith <情逆三世緣>, which costars Bobby Au Yeung (歐陽震華) and Esther Kwan (關詠荷).

In February 2013, Mandy will begin shooting for The Hippocratic Crush 2 <On Call 36小時 II> with Lawrence Ng (吳啟華), Kenneth Ma (馬國明),Tavia Yeung (楊怡), and Him Law (羅仲謙).

  1. Last year Kate did some research on drug addicts for High and Low, overnight popular

    Now this year Mandy following footstep of Kate , hopefully having breakthrough on her latest TVB drama, A Change of Heart ?

    I am wondering what to learn ?..making sound ?

    1. I hope Mandy does not follow Kate’s footsteps at all and walk her own path to her success and breakthrough actually. Mandy definitely has potential to be the one of TVB’S top future fadans. I wish her all the best for 2013! Really like watching her acting 🙂

  2. It’s not unusual almost every actor does research to prepare for their roles

  3. Interesting and good for her but I am afraid high-end prostitutes are not found in night clubs but rather at the usual materialistic go getter we see everyday in the papers. Perhaps she has gone the wrong route for her research.

    1. Yup. Nightclub properly has very low ratio of escorts. Escorts normally a closely circle.

  4. Looking forward to watch this drama which also features Bosco.

    1. Yeah, looking fwd to watch Michael, Joey, Bosco + Nikki 🙂

  5. mandy wong sure will be top TVB fadan soon as she got the look and talent

    1. Crap, if Mandy is top fadan, then TVB shud be losing monopoly soon as all good actress joined other TV stations

  6. Wish you the Best, Mandy, in 2013…Love and Support Mandy!
