Gym Guts & No-Nakedness: Lawrence Wong on Hello My Love
Why He’s Happy to Wear a Shirt
When Lawrence Wong was chatting with AsiaOne about the new iQiyi series Hello My Love, he chuckled about how uncommon it is for a lead to avoid the topless drama. “I always wonder, ‘Why does every show make me shirtless?’” he said, poking fun at the trend.
Instagram Stories & The “Topless‑Every‑Time” Meme
Lawrence often posts snapshots of his light‑hearted wardrobe on Instagram Stories. Friends sometimes comment, “Why are you always naked?” – a running joke that got him laughing, not crying.
The Beats & Love Triangles in the Show
In the show, three career women (played by Qin Lan, Lan Yingying, and Zheng He Hui Zi) juggle love, ambition, and life choices. Lawrence steps onto the scene as a playful, slightly scatterbrained gym instructor, Yang Wanqing, who finds himself caught between two flirtations: Pan Xiaochen (Yingying) and Wang Jun (He Peng).
The “Seduced on the Phone” Cliffhanger
- Xiaochen tries to playfully seduce Wanqing while he’s on the line with Wang Jun.
- Lawrence recalls how the scene turned into a sidesplitting improv session.
- “We were practically trying to stifle our laughter,” he says – proof that even drama can be a giggle fest.
Why He’s Proud of Staying Covered
Typically, gym instructors in television dramas are the on-screen “topless icon.” But in Hello My Love, Lawrence’s character never burns a shirt. He credits this as a unique character trait that outshines the usual romantic fluff.
Gym Time: A Post‑Quarantine Reality
Between film sets, the actor had to navigate China’s grueling 14‑plus‑14 quarantine, meaning a month locked in one room. “I couldn’t hit the gym then,” he admits, “so the shooting schedule felt like a sprint through a gym Dad wish.”
Where to Watch
Fans can catch Hello My Love on the iQiyi streaming platform, waiting for the series to drop its next episode. Lawrence’s light‑hearted take on gym life—and his decision to keep his hoodie on—supplies the drama with refreshing humor.
Fun Fact
Durante the filming, the cast and crew had so many “on‑the‑spot” laughs that the production team coined a special term: “Laugh‑while‑filming”.
