Dayo Wong Tze Wah has been promoting his new film THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK) non-stop for days. He recently accepted an interview with the online program "The Do Show" with Carl Cheng Yui Ling (Sister Do), which was broadcast in two episodes. Tze Wah started from when he was a child, and said with a smile that if anyone wants to find out about his life in the future, they can watch this Sister Do's interview.

Tze Wah talked about his rough childhood, describing himself as a "human ball" when he lived with his maternal grandmother, paternal grandmother and mother successively, "The worst part is not knowing whether it was due to my face or my attitude, when I went to live in my maternal grandmother or paternal grandmother's house, first I was almost the youngest, and secondly I was the most unpopular one." Studied at prestigious kindergartens and primary schools, Tze Wah had to change schools because the tuition fees were too expensive. When he was in secondary school, he went swimming in Acacia Bay with 3 classmates. They saw a boat by the sea, so they rowed out to sea with just a paddle. They did not expect the Marine Police would stop them and in the end brought them with the boat back to the police station. He was still frightened when he recalled, "I was very scared, come on, we were just playing; were they going to shoot us?" He said that they were very pathetic at the time, "We were just several teenagers. We were only in our swimming trunks, trembling at the police station the whole time." Later, they were sentenced to two years on probation. Tze Wah said that they were considered lucky.

Sister Do said that she worked with Tze Wah on the TVB series WAR OF THE GENDERS (NAM CHUN NUI OI) for 5 months, and only witnessed him losing his temper once. "People online said that you rarely lose your temper, and there are 3 times in the record. Once was during rehearsal with Siu Leung, I was on the set that time. Once when you were filming, one of the staff members seemed to be so angry because he didn't get what he wanted, and you lost your temper; and once while filming the ending of THE GRAND GRANDMASTER (MUK DOI JUNG SI), people said that you threw a tantrum." Wong generously admitted, "Yes."

Tze Wah felt that he did not lose his temper when he played opposite Siu Leung, he asked Sister Do, "You were there, what did you see?" Sister Do said that what Tze Wah threw was not considered a tantrum, "We have seen and understood that Siu Leung has quite a character, and he will advise you on what to do during the shoot. You are already very professional in this area, you don't need him to remind you; the so-called Tze Wah lost his temper was only him holding a stack of documents at the time, then throwing away the stack of documents. He wasn't very forceful either. Then he said, 'I know what I am doing!' That's it." As for the other two times, Tze Wah said that he was filming in the mainland once. when he saw the food of other actors, he knew that someone had embezzled the food money and made a fortune so he got mad; another time was when he directed and acted in the ending of THE GRAND GRANDMASTER (MUK DOI JUNG SI), he injured his arm and fractured it. At the end of the show, Tze Wah admitted that he really wanted to film TABLE FOR SIX 2 (FAN HEI GUNG SUM 2), but he could not due to some things and it became the hardest thing for him to accept in the entertainment industry.
