The Eccentricities of Wong Liu-shuang
(Original Title: 黃柳霜之怪癖)
Wong Liu-shuang is renowned for her peculiar affection for dogs, a sentiment she’s famous for in the bustling city of Shanghai. Her emotional connection with these creatures often surpasses that shared with humans, as it’s said that the few dogs capable of acting in films bonded deeply with her. Tangren Street gossip once relayed to me by a Chinese reporter mentioned that Wong Liu-shuang not only adored dogs but also relished kissing them. She reportedly claimed that dogs had a unique charm that distinguished them, turning her affection into a curious spectacle for others to discuss.
