According to Hong Kong media outlets, viewers have expressed their wish to see more interaction between Man, actress Nancy Wu's character, Hugo and Cheung Yuen, played by veteran actor Wayne Lai.

The 39-year old actor, who is still recovering from a recent bout with Bechet's Disease, expressed his gladness over the popularity of his character in the drama as well as the positive reception of 'Overachievers'. The actor also revealed that the fans of the drama expressed that they wanted his character to end up with that of Wu.

"I'm afraid my relationship with Nancy [in the drama] would not be established within a few episodes, but I am glad that the reception is very good," says Wong.

There might have only been five episodes that have aired so far, but as the plot develops, Wong's character has already started turning table on Lai's character. Wong, who is not afraid of the criticism that may come since his character has turned into a villain, jokingly added that he hopes the viewers would 'scold' him.

As for his health, the actor revealed that he has almost recovered from his previous illness, which also forced him to withdraw from the lead role in the epic drama, 'Cheung Po Tsai', otherwise known as 'Captain of Destiny'. Despite that, the actor stated that he has to try not to reduce his workload although he promised to pay more attention to his health in the future.
