Mandy Wong bitterly practices walking a ladder for her renovation worker role

TVB rising FaDan Mandy Wong played 'Mei Suet' in The Hippocratic Crush following her popular role 'Kwan Yee So' in L'Escargot and has been on the popularity rise since. TVB is heavily promoting her, as she is casted in series after series, next month she'll be starting on new series A Chip off the Old Block II and will 'continue fate' with Him Law. In the series she plays a renovation worker girl, and to gain deeper knowledge in the role, Mandy especially took out some time before filming starts to learn how to remodel homes from her relative, who actually works as a renovation worker in real life. As Mandy does not have any knowledge on renovation, she will have to start from the very beginning and work her way up.

On her first 'lesson', Mandy learned how to walk the wooden ladder. Her relative took the lead and demonstrated for her first. She saw her relative clamping his two legs to the ladder, and walked while sitting on the ladder with ease. During the time, he was even walking with he ladder as he painted the walls, looking very relaxed. Mandy misunderstood and thought it was a piece of cake, and before she knew it, she was injured instantly when it was her turn. Mandy appeared having a very difficult time walking the ladder, and called for help from her relative: "Why can't I move it?" Her relative saw her struggling and went forward to attentively explain to her how it works. He taught her the tricks to holding the ladder with her legs and walking with it.

After all the hard work, Mandy barely took a step while sitting on the ladder. Although she only made little progress, she was still very happy. Then Mandy just took the ladder home with her and will be moving around with the ladder at home every day. She laughed: "It looks easy, but in reality it's so difficult, so I practiced for several days. My thighs are all sore, but that's ok! How will there be any achievements if there are no effort put into it! I'll just treat this as homework, must accomplish it. No matter what difficulty I encounter, I must overcome!"
