Summary
At ViuTV’s 2027 programme presentation, held on 21 October at MacPherson Stadium in Mong Kok, ERROR member Dee Ho Kai-wa said he will appear in the drama Love in Quicksand and host the British-format game show The Cube. He said Love in Quicksand was challenging because of repeated arguments between his character and co-star Kay Choi Wai-kei, and revealed he once cried in private after feeling disappointed with his own performance during an exhausting early-morning shoot. On the variety side, he said he wants to learn from Chan Kai-tai’s hosting style by projecting a more refined, knowledgeable and mature image while keeping the focus on audience entertainment and interaction.
Key Points
- The ViuTV 2027 presentation opened with a song-and-dance performance by ZPOT at MacPherson Stadium in Mong Kok on 21 October.
- Dee Ho said he is often joked about for not doing enough company work, so he wanted to take on a strong hosting assignment with The Cube.
- He said he would borrow from Chan Kai-tai’s style, but clarified he meant the host-audience rapport rather than copying everything associated with him.
- Before inviting members of the public to play, he hopes to bring artist friends onto the show first, including ERROR and MIRROR members.
- Ho joked he would invite his ERROR teammates but would not let them win prizes, because they tend to beat serious games in unserious ways.
Why It Matters
For Hong Kong viewers, Ho’s dual role in a scripted drama and a major game-show format points to ViuTV’s effort to stretch its in-house talent across genres rather than keeping performers in fixed images. His comments also suggest the broadcaster wants The Cube to mix celebrity participation with family-audience engagement, a formula aimed at broadening prime-time appeal.
