Viral clip of HK actor Bosco Wong scolding waiters in Malaysia is just a skit, says agency

Popular Hong Kong actor Bosco Wong was in Malaysia recently to promote his new movie, The Unwavering Brotherhood.

Known for his easy-going personality, the 43-year-old attracted attention on social media when a video recording of him reprimanding two waiters at a local restaurant went viral.

In the clip, which has garnered over 1.2 million views on Facebook, Wong was seen scolding a waitress for getting his order wrong.

“Call your manager now,” he was heard saying, as quoted by Sin Chew Daily.

Wong seemed to calm down when another employee brought him a plate of nasi lemak, but his frustration flared up again upon noticing roasted peanuts in the dish.

“Why did you give me peanuts? A quick search online would tell you that I don’t eat peanuts,” the actor lamented.

Despite the staff member’s apologies and offer to prepare a new meal, the TVB star slammed the table and yelled: “What time is it? You have to remake it, and I still have to wait?”

Some netizens sympathised with Wong’s frustration, noting that consuming peanuts could be dangerous for someone with an allergy.

Others, however, pointed out that Wong was likely filming a skit, as a microphone was attached to his shirt.

“He is obviously just acting,” said one netizen.

“Please pay attention. There is a microphone attached to his shirt. There’s no way he would slander others so casually,” added another.

An official statement has since been released to clear the confusion.

On Tuesday (Aug 27), a film distribution agency in Malaysia clarified that Wong was merely recreating a scene from The Unwavering Brotherhood, in which he plays a gang leader.

“Our company would like to clarify that the entire content was a reenactment of an intense scene from the film.

“Bosco Wong has always set a positive example and has never intentionally deceived or intimidated anyone. He has never misused his status to pressure others,” it said.

Wong has always been vocal about his love for Malaysia.

He was spotted dining at a street stall in Setapak, Kuala Lumpur, last month and reportedly owns four properties in the country worth over tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.
