Wong Jing Criticizes Keung To as "Fat, Chicken-voiced, Cheap Dancing", Tells Him to Get Out of Showbiz

Hong Kong male star Keung To participated in the talent show "King Maker" in 2018, ultimately winning the championship and debuting as the central figure of the boy group "MIRROR", skyrocketing in popularity. He has been dubbed as Hong Kong's top star in recent years. Although his weight has soared since his debut, his fans remain fervent in their support. However, renowned director Wong Jing couldn't stand it and suddenly posted on Weibo, cursing him as "fat, chicken-voiced, cheap dancing", sparking heated discussions, and later deleting the post.

Keung To's birthday is April 30th, so starting from early April, fans spent money on various street billboards to publish Keung To’s birthday support advertisements, and even wrapped bus body advertisements, so you can see Keung To everywhere on the streets. Wong Jing posted on Weibo showing these photos and questioned "Hong Kong's top star?" and couldn't help but criticize "fat, chicken-voiced, cheap dancing", even shouting "please leave the entertainment circle."

Once Wong Jing's post appeared, some netizens agreed, saying "It really insults Hong Kong! Look at the popular male and female stars in Hong Kong in the past," "He's speaking the truth; how can this face be top-star? I still don’t understand," "There are reasons why the Hong Kong entertainment circle is declining generation by generation," "Jing has experienced the golden age of Hong Kong's entertainment industry and has seen so many handsome men and beautiful women. It's not surprising he thinks this way." However, some netizens believe "No matter if he’s a top star or not, it’s not right to scold people like that," "This way of speaking is a bit harsh," "Isn't Wong Jing also a fatty himself? Is it magic defeating magic?"

Some netizens even pointed out that most of the photos Wong Jing shared of Keung To were edited to appear thinner, therefore suspecting this operation might be reverse publicity. Wong Jing has since deleted the post. However, Keung To posted a picture on Instagram with the caption "just a laugh", implying "all you can do is laugh," suspected to be a response to Wong Jing.
