Can't wait to see this series because Bosco is in it! And he's the main lead too! I think this series will be a good one to watch because it looks like a comedy.
[Wong Fei Hung] Bosco Wong

How would you know he is not fit to be Wong Fei Hong? The series is not even out. From the poster of this series, I think Bosco's eyes has the kind of Wong Fei Hong look.

YAY! Bosco is the Lead Actor. I wonder if he will win any prizes in the TVB Anniversary next year. I hope this will be out soon. It's been almost a year since it finished filming.

well...jet li has already set the benchmark in terms of potraying wong fei hung...
i think it'll be a tough task for bosco to come close let alone match the greatness of jet li

Not really fair to compare this series to Once Upon a Time in China. After all one is a series and the other is a big budget action movie. Jet Li isn't the first wong fei hung though, there were quite a few before him. In the guiness book of world records Wong Fei Hong is like the longest running string of movies or something. This series still looks ok, i'm planning on watching it.

any comment about HIM. HIM only
u can talk about his lovelife- or friendship with others. but main focus should be BOSCO. dont go too way off topic

Can't really compare Bosco to Jet Li because Jet is actually from Shaolin. Though I do think that Bosco seems to fight pretty well. Like he actually knows how to fight marital arts, he is able to make people think that way, I think.

i don't think it's fair comparing jet li to bosco. Bosco has his own style in potraying WFH, and so does Jet Li (although i admit Jet Li king fu skills are unbeatable 
). apart from jet li, there are other actors who portrayed WFH in different style

i think bosco is one of the best upcoming actors.
anyway this is the young versionof WFH so i don't think its fair to compare him with jet li.

Looking forward to see Bosco in this series because he did improve in acting through the many series that he performed in the past...can't really compare him with Jet Li because of their age, experience in acting, kung-fu skills, and other factors that separate them thus far...

I am watching this series right now. It is pretty good. I think Bosco is a good actor. I liked him in To Love With No Regrets and the small parts he played in the Last Breakthrough.

Really, really, starting to like Bosco a lot <3
His look in eps 9, when he was mad and about to hit Kenneth. Wow =D popping veins. lol
I do think he looks like he knows how to fight.

I think Bosco is doing a very good job in playing the role of Wong Fei Hung. The way he does his kung fu moves were good, seems like he really know some kung fu. As for comparing it to Jet Li, i don't think it's right to compare them, as everybody is unique and they each have their own style of acting skills. Comparing is meaningless...Bosco is not Jet Li.
Keep up the good work Bosco, you're doing GREAT! I really enjoy you playing WFH, you got the skills and the cute face...haha.

not too keen on thinkin that his fighting scenes are convincing, but for an actor with no background on martial arts, i gotta give credit that he is doing quite a good job portraying wong fei hong. plus this is a lighter version of wong fei hong, so i wouldn't overly criticise his moves.

Absolutely. No comparison can be made (personally though, I think Zhao Wen-Zhou made a better Wong Fei Hung than Jet Li).
But the reason you can't compare them is this, the Once Upon a time in China series were 3 about 2 hours long films where character development and plot had to be made to fit into a certain time period. Also, martial arts had to be a focus in order to promote it. Jet Li was the focus throughout.
The TVB series is longer and allows for more development of plot/sub-plot and characters, romance and character traits are as important as martial arts.
In terms of the actors, Jet Li was national martial arts champion 6 times before switching to acting. Bosco is a relatively new actor that has had to learn martial arts for the series (which I think he does quite well).

i gotta admit. I wasnt loookin foward in seeing this series at first. Because I thought bosco doesnt suit the WFH charector. Buh afta giving him a chance I think he does suit it. because Bosco plays a younger version of WFH as Jet Li played a more mature role.. I think thats the difference besides the martial art skills. Buh we gotta give bosco a chance. As far as I see.. I think bosco is doing a very good job.. Gotta give him propz.

Bosco, Jet, Bsoco Jet...hard to say who's better, they both have their pros & cons.
Bosco seems to be 1 of the many uprising TVB stars (along with Sammual, Tavia, Raymond, Leila, Nancy etc...) now init?!
Bosco's good @ WFH, the way he's so helpful, but unhelpful at the same time
" he's definitely a good actor and done well with all his parts (not just in WFH, but all the previous 1s aswell). It's good that we'll see more of him^^!

bosco is quite good...but sometimes i feel like it's contradictory....maybe because he tried too hard...cos when he's lecturing and stuff...he seems so mature...but he can also be very naive when it comes to other things....

yea...I think Bosco's acting is pretty good too...I think he can do a good job in acting as wong fei hong..but I think he should have more muscles on his shoulder..hahahaha just to look better as wong fei hong...hahaha =)

I really like Bosco and his role as WFH Jr. I can't think of someone better to play the role (so he's doing a wonderful job). I'm glad to C him as a leading character, he deserves it.
And as many ppl mentioned comparing him to Jet Li, that's just unfair. Especially since this is a series (requires more acting and a better script) and Jet Li's is a film (more action than acting, not to say Jet Li can't act).

Bosco should do find with this role. He is still a young kid and still learning how to be wonf fei hung. With other past acting experiences he did really great!

Jet Li as wong fei hung is a classic, but the one with bosco in is alot funnier. But i think their both great, and boscoe's acting in this is pretty good for a new actor

How can you compare Bosco with Jet Li who made this story Wong fei hung so famous??
I don't think that Bosco was that good he is always so childish in al his series really annoying.
