Biography

Dayo Wong Chi-Wah (Chinese: 黃子華) is a Hong Kong stand-up comedian and actor. Wong gained a bachelor's degree in philosophy from the University of Alberta in Canada. He began his career in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong in 1984, but he is best known for his works in live stand-up comedy which he started performing regularly in 1990. Since then he has starred in TV dramas and films and has recorded several albums. In comparison with his stand-up comedy and TV dramas, his movies are not as successful. When asked the reasons behind it, he explained that his ultimate goal is to look for something new in his movies. His visions make his work good to watch, but it is not good enough to attract people to pay for a cinema ticket. Additionally, he hates doing promotions for his work.
