Meet Jane Wong, the Hong Kong actress starring in Squid Game season 3: she's worked with Andy Lau and Nicholas Tse, has modelled for Apple and Lululemon, and practices Japanese archery
Squid Game season three instantly captured global attention with her beautiful smile, fluent English and an unexpected line of dialogue in Mandarin. In episode four, while waiting for the next round of the game to begin, she decides to leave her seat. Another male VIP asks her in a flirtatious tone, 'Where are you going? Don't do that. Have a drink with me.' She responds in Mandarin, 'I'd rather drink with a stool than with you'.

However, many drama fans have criticised her dubbed voice as annoying and awkward. Netizens commented under a post on Facebook, 'Her voice is so fake, it's like some AI voices.' The performances of these VIPs, who watched the deadly game unfold for their twisted amusement, were generally slammed as 'the most cringe-inducing part' of the series as they were in season one.

Hong Kong's annual anime fair to double venue size to cut waiting times for fans
Hong Kong's annual comics and games fair is set to double its venue size this year to shorten fan waiting times when it launches at the end of the month, according to the organiser. Ani-Com & Games Hong Kong 2025 is set to run from July 25 to 29 at Halls 1 and 3 of the Convention and Exhibition Centre, with the festival to feature a record-high number of 160 exhibitors and more than 788 booths. The coming event will mark the 26th year of the fair. It will span more than 34,870 square metres, nearly twice the size of last year's iteration, and will be able to accommodate an extra 7,000 people. 'Anime has evolved from a subculture favoured by a few people to a popular culture favoured by most young people, and the [fair] has also gradually developed into a mega-event, receiving attention from Hong Kong people and the industry,' said Leung Chung-pun, the event's CEO. 'With more visitors after the pandemic, there are longer lines and longer waiting times for the audience. This is something that we don't want to see the most.' The event's cosplayer quota has been increased from 2,500 to 3,500, with 'no limitations' on costumes, so long as they comply with the rules, the fair's CEO has said. Photo: Nora Tam Leung said that the latest iteration would move the section dedicated to doujin, or fan-created works, to Hall 3 to increase venue capacity.
