you guys are freaking amazing!
your quirky sense of humour and realistic portrayal of everyday life etc always put a smile on my face!
if you ever have a chance to head down under, i hope you guys will come to Melbourne
<3
Just dropping in… checking out the website, the store, and the blog… You know, the usual.
You guys should definitely come down to Australia sometime, visit us university students, maybe even provide us with some advice on the whole “doing what you love” thing.
On, and by the way, I think what you guys are doing, and your motto; is absolutely positively phenomenally fantastic!
Wow, that was a mouthful…
I’d better be signing off, gotta go study… **sigh, the life of a student**
Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I love your work and that I can’t wait to see what you have planned for the future. Drop me a line sometime on Twitter: .
And remember; keep ‘Perth, Western Australia’ in mind for your future trips.
Hey Wong Fu~
I just wanna say you guys are my favorite Youtubers! You guys should visit your old college during the summer! Lol I’m not even in college yet, but I’m planning on doing a scavenger hunt with my friends during the summer there.

Hey Ted, Wes and Phil~
Thanks for stopping by UCD on Saturday – it really made my week. To finally see you all in person, AND to see your new release “When Five Fell” was really exhilarating and momentous. Keep up the great work! Hopefully all the pressure of having so many viewers and their expectations won’t affect your great work – your videos are the best. You all are inspirational for taking such a big risk to go into the production business, but it was worth it, yes?
Anyways, thanks again for stopping by UCD! We were such a rowdy crowd, but we all love you!~
Hey guys! I’m from Sydney and just recieved my niceguy t-shirt! its awesome! hahaha i always have the urge to act extra nice when im wearing the t-shirt =D I finally found a group of nice people! yay there are others out there lol!

Hi Ted, Wes, and Phil!
I have only started watching your videos a couple months ago and since then have kept up to date to most of your posts and videos. I was so happy when you made a music video for Aj Rafael and David Choi who are two of my favorite singers
Although im not in college i hope you guys can make a tour to University of Hawaii on Oahu so i at least have a chance to come and watch one of your guy’s lectture, presentations things lol.
Keep up the awesome work! and hope to see in Hawaii sometime soon!
Hey guys,
Thank you for coming to UCDavis and spending time with us. You guys are cuter in real life.
Good luck with everything and I hope to see your work in the future.
Hey guys! Mark from Sydney here. Got the t-shirts I ordered from you guys and looking forward to showing it to everyone Love your work guys! Keep it up! *thumbs up*
<3 to you guys!!!! I really appreciate all the passion you guys have for what you guys do!! It all shines through! We will always support you guys!!!!!!
hey guys im a 10th grader in concord CA i want to be in media like what you guys do and i just wanted to know that your videos are really cool and i want to be like that someday so what tips would you give for a beginner to go in the the media world
so when you do have time…you should come to WI…for a tour…. mostly everyone only goes to the bigger cities that are famous..and the not so famous US smaller cities don’t get any attention..or at least go to Chicago..so we can come see you guys.. in person…thanks wong fu!! Love amanda song^^
I’m a fan of you and your videos. They’re all funny and meaningful to me. I wish someday i could meet you guys in real life. I live in Vietnam ( Ho Chi Minh city ). I know it’s so far … but i really want to. So sad ….
Hey Phil, Wes & Ted!
I love your guys’ videos! All three of you are truly talented when it comes to making people laugh, cry, and to believe in ourselves!
Your videos just make my day, I always check to see if you have any new videos!
Keep up the amazing work guys!
I really wish I can meet you guys one day, and of course, get some of your merchandise that are simply adorable.
Thank you guys for all the smiles, laughter and joy you bring to us with your amazing videos.
Also I have a question for you guys. Hopefully you’ll be able to answer them, considering you guys are so busy now with the tours and whatnot. Anywho, me and a couple of my friends have been planning a while now to make some videos. We’ve been planning for quite a while, and we will kick into it soon! But I would like to ask what kind of video editing software do you guys use? I’m thinking iMovie ’cause I think you guys use Macs? But if you know any video editing software that is almost similar to iMovie for Windows, I would very much like to know too! (:
Any other tips you could give us amateurs? XD (Sorry if this is too troublesome!)
Thanks again guys for being so inspiring! Me and my friends are absolute huge fans of you!!!
<3 <3 <3

from Brunei (hope you know where the heck Brunei is hehehe) P.s; you have fans here too..
Hello. Im 16 and I love to make videos. I know probably I wont be as big as you guys but I was wondering if you had any tips for me? Also what kinda cameras do you guys use for your videos? i wanna save up and buy one.
hello! I wanted to say thank you! It is nice to see that you three are still making wonderful films that are funny and moving. My very first Wong Fu Short I watch was Yellow Fever about 4yrs or so ago. I instantly became a fan. Your MV’s have introduced me to new artist and old that I never heard of but fell in love with (Far East Movement, Thomas’s Apartment, etc).
I check every week to see what new project that you have finished, to check out your VBlogs, or just to watch some of my favorite shorts. I expect to one day in the near future to see a Wong Fu Film in theaters!!!!! Good luck with everything, and never grow up too much ^_^!
I’m from Paris and I’m kinda new to Wong Fu productions.
(I started to watch your shorts since this year and… I don’t really remember how I first heard about you…)
I just wanna say that so far I really like your shorts – I find them funny and positive.
I really like your MVs and vlogs too! ^^
They make me smile.
So… I think I must say it here: Thank you!!!
And wish you all the best.
Hey Phil,Wes,Ted!
I’ve been a fan for a long time now and I am so jealous of all your fans whom you’ve got to meet on your University tours.Sorry for me coz I’m in the other side of the world.Philippines!..pretty far right? Well,just wanted to say that thanks for keeping us updated through your blogs,WF w/e and pics on twitter.(Much props to Ted there).I’m planning to buy some Nice Guy shirts you have and I love the designs. Hope that I can meet you guys one day, and keep us inspired with your awesome YouTube videos.
Ode to the Nice Guys
This rant was written for the Wharton Undergraduate Journal
This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit patiently outside the changing room at department stores. This is in honor of the guys that obligingly reiterate how cute/beautiful/smart/funny/sexy their female friends are at the appropriate moment, because they know most girls need that litany of support. This is in honor of the guys with open minds, with laid-back attitudes, with honest concern. This is in honor of the guys who respect a girl’s every facet, from her privacy to her theology to her clothing style.
This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female friends back from parties and never take advantage once they’re at her door, for the guys who accompany girls to bars as buffers against the rest of the creepy male population, for the guys who know a girl is fishing for compliments but give them out anyway, for the guys who always play by the rules in a game where the rules favor cheaters, for the guys who are accredited as boyfriend material but somehow don’t end up being boyfriends, for all the nice guys who are overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for you.
This is for that time she left 40 urgent messages on your cell phone, and when you called her back, she spent three hours painstakingly dissecting two sentences her boyfriend said to her over dinner. And even though you thought her boyfriend was a chump and a jerk, you assured her that it was all ok and she shouldn’t worry about it. This is for that time she interrupted the best killing spree you’d ever orchestrated in GTA3 to rant about a rumor that romantically linked her and the guy she thinks is the most repulsive person in the world. And even though you thought it was immature and you had nothing against the guy, you paused the game for two hours and helped her concoct a counter-rumor to spread around the floor. This is also for that time she didn’t have a date, so after numerous vows that there was nothing “serious” between the two of you, she dragged you to a party where you knew nobody, the beer was awful, and she flirted shamelessly with you, justifying each fit of reckless teasing by announcing to everyone: “oh, but we’re just friends!” And even though you were invited purely as a symbolic warm body for her ego, you went anyways. Because you’re nice like that.
The nice guys don’t often get credit where credit is due. And perhaps more disturbing, the nice guys don’t seem to get laid as often as they should. And I wish I could logically explain this trend, but I can’t. From what I have observed on campus and what I have learned from talking to friends at other schools and in the workplace, the only conclusion I can form is that many girls are just illogical, manipulative bitches. Many of them claim they just want to date a nice guy, but when presented with such a specimen, they say irrational, confusing things such as “oh, he’s too nice to date” or “he would be a good boyfriend but he’s not for me” or “he already puts up with so much from me, I couldn’t possibly ask him out!” or the most frustrating of all: “no, it would ruin our friendship.” Yet, they continue to lament the lack of datable men in the world, and they expect their too-nice-to-date male friends to sympathize and apologize for the men that are jerks. Sorry, guys, girls like that are beyond my ability to fathom. I can’t figure out why the connection breaks down between what they say (I want a nice guy!) and what they do (I’m going to sleep with this complete ass now!). But one thing I can do, is say that the nice-guy-finishes-last phenomenon doesn’t last forever. There are definitely many girls who grow out of that train of thought and realize they should be dating the nice guys, not taking them for granted. The tricky part is finding those girls, and even trickier, finding the ones that are single.
So, until those girls are found, I propose a toast to all the nice guys. You know who you are, and I know you’re sick of hearing yourself described as ubiquitously nice. But the truth of the matter is, the world needs your patience in the department store, your holding open of doors, your party escorting services, your propensity to be a sucker for a pretty smile. For all the crazy, inane, absurd things you tolerate, for all the situations where you are the faceless, nameless hero, my accolades, my acknowledgement, and my gratitude go out to you. You do have credibility in this society, and your well deserved vindication is coming.
hey guys,
i went to your event at Columbia and it was great!… except for the hectic meet and greet.
i really wanted to take a picture and get some autographs );
and i didnt get to meet Wes either );
but overall, it was great.
and Philip, i think your fish joke was pretty funny ;D
Hi from Australia (Melbourne)!!! Your work is great….keep it up. If you are ever coming down to Australia remember to drop by Melbourne……..I’ll show you why it’s better than Sydney (Australian thing). If you guys ever venture down…let me know. Always wanted to speak to you guys on love chat…..but can’t. Must be the time difference. Keep Smiling!!!! Love always Kaly
Hey! Loved ur event at Columbia tonight ! It was awesome and we had a good laugh at your jokes So sorry Ted and Phil that I asked to take a pic wit Wesley only.. I love all of you guys, I swear! HOpe you guys had fun in NYC and keep up the great work with the videos!
Hi guys, just want to say it was really awesome to see you guys at Columbia today. I’ve only recently(3 months of so) found out about you guys through David Choi.
Thank you for your signatures, pictures and cute t-shirts.
I was truly inspired by your comments on “giving back to the community”, “Asian American role in Hollywood/U.S/online”, “all the pressure fom comments like You will receive the Oscars!”
Don’t worry about me trashing your signature one year from now. That won’t be happening. Like what you guys told us today, it’s okay to be afraid of what’s we are supposed to do after we graduate. Dream big and believe in it.
And Of course, Eat THE FOOD.
Thanks for all the jokes, smiles and laughs. It was an awesome night
May 13, 2010 at 6:05 pm
you guys are freaking amazing!
your quirky sense of humour and realistic portrayal of everyday life etc always put a smile on my face!

May 13, 2010 at 5:06 pm
Words can’t even describe how cool you guys are.
In fact, the word ‘cool’ is not even cool enough to be associated with you.
May 12, 2010 at 3:07 pm
You guys are awesome!
Get more Fierce Hats! They’re always sold out!
I want one!!
May 11, 2010 at 4:53 am
Hey Wong Fu!
Just dropping in… checking out the website, the store, and the blog… You know, the usual.
You guys should definitely come down to Australia sometime, visit us university students, maybe even provide us with some advice on the whole “doing what you love” thing.
On, and by the way, I think what you guys are doing, and your motto; is absolutely positively phenomenally fantastic!
Wow, that was a mouthful…
I’d better be signing off, gotta go study… **sigh, the life of a student**
Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I love your work and that I can’t wait to see what you have planned for the future. Drop me a line sometime on Twitter: .
And remember; keep ‘Perth, Western Australia’ in mind for your future trips.
Keep up the great work!
All the best,

This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female friends back from parties and never take advantage once they’re at her door, for the guys who accompany girls to bars as buffers against the rest of the creepy male population, for the guys who know a girl is fishing for compliments but give them out anyway, for the guys who always play by the rules in a game where the rules favor cheaters, for the guys who are accredited as boyfriend material but somehow don’t end up being boyfriends, for all the nice guys who are overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for you.
This is for that time she left 40 urgent messages on your cell phone, and when you called her back, she spent three hours painstakingly dissecting two sentences her boyfriend said to her over dinner. And even though you thought her boyfriend was a chump and a jerk, you assured her that it was all ok and she shouldn’t worry about it. This is for that time she interrupted the best killing spree you’d ever orchestrated in GTA3 to rant about a rumor that romantically linked her and the guy she thinks is the most repulsive person in the world. And even though you thought it was immature and you had nothing against the guy, you paused the game for two hours and helped her concoct a counter-rumor to spread around the floor. This is also for that time she didn’t have a date, so after numerous vows that there was nothing “serious” between the two of you, she dragged you to a party where you knew nobody, the beer was awful, and she flirted shamelessly with you, justifying each fit of reckless teasing by announcing to everyone: “oh, but we’re just friends!” And even though you were invited purely as a symbolic warm body for her ego, you went anyways. Because you’re nice like that.
The nice guys don’t often get credit where credit is due. And perhaps more disturbing, the nice guys don’t seem to get laid as often as they should. And I wish I could logically explain this trend, but I can’t. From what I have observed on campus and what I have learned from talking to friends at other schools and in the workplace, the only conclusion I can form is that many girls are just illogical, manipulative bitches. Many of them claim they just want to date a nice guy, but when presented with such a specimen, they say irrational, confusing things such as “oh, he’s too nice to date” or “he would be a good boyfriend but he’s not for me” or “he already puts up with so much from me, I couldn’t possibly ask him out!” or the most frustrating of all: “no, it would ruin our friendship.” Yet, they continue to lament the lack of datable men in the world, and they expect their too-nice-to-date male friends to sympathize and apologize for the men that are jerks. Sorry, guys, girls like that are beyond my ability to fathom. I can’t figure out why the connection breaks down between what they say (I want a nice guy!) and what they do (I’m going to sleep with this complete ass now!). But one thing I can do, is say that the nice-guy-finishes-last phenomenon doesn’t last forever. There are definitely many girls who grow out of that train of thought and realize they should be dating the nice guys, not taking them for granted. The tricky part is finding those girls, and even trickier, finding the ones that are single.
So, until those girls are found, I propose a toast to all the nice guys. You know who you are, and I know you’re sick of hearing yourself described as ubiquitously nice. But the truth of the matter is, the world needs your patience in the department store, your holding open of doors, your party escorting services, your propensity to be a sucker for a pretty smile. For all the crazy, inane, absurd things you tolerate, for all the situations where you are the faceless, nameless hero, my accolades, my acknowledgement, and my gratitude go out to you. You do have credibility in this society, and your well deserved vindication is coming.

Hi guys, just want to say it was really awesome to see you guys at Columbia today. I’ve only recently(3 months of so) found out about you guys through David Choi.
Thank you for your signatures, pictures and cute t-shirts.
I was truly inspired by your comments on “giving back to the community”, “Asian American role in Hollywood/U.S/online”, “all the pressure fom comments like You will receive the Oscars!”
Don’t worry about me trashing your signature one year from now. That won’t be happening. Like what you guys told us today, it’s okay to be afraid of what’s we are supposed to do after we graduate. Dream big and believe in it.
And Of course, Eat THE FOOD.
Thanks for all the jokes, smiles and laughs. It was an awesome night
