[@annay8586]

this was better than a hallmark movie

[@wang10057]

obviously

[@wongfupro]

christmas prince who?

[@XionProductions]

No, no it wasn't. It was awful and sad and just makes me feel bad.

[@karsu]

"Hallmark and Lifetime..... Television for idiots" - Family Guy and South Park.

[@AeroGold1]

@@XionProductions Totally agree with you. Wong Fu has some pretty great short films, this was not one of them. Seems like they literally used a standard form "Hallmark movie plot point check list" during production. And I do not mean that in a good way at all.

[@caz8D]

she looks like what i imagined Mulan to look like

[@psychedamike]

AJ better than Liu Yifei if you ask me

[@caz8D]

psychedamike agreed. Liu Yifei is beautiful but not Mulan

[@jkw9101]

Omg, can’t agree more

[@pyromusik92]

Actually she really does!

[@chickenfriedrice905]

Not every asian is mulan

[@sakurahollow]

She said she's not broken but then we find out that he literally has the ability to restore what's broken :') I see you wongfu

[@garygentzel7924]

That’s what he did - fixed her broken heart 💔

[@jenacho1472]

Lmao “Some stories don’t get tied up in a BOW” well she got herself a Bow in the end

[@kpacubo.]

wowwww i didnt even realize that

[@MikeBowShow]

Always tie it up with a BOW 😜😜😜😜🎀🎀🎀

[@jenacho1472]

MikeBowShow omg Mike!!😝

[@ingkitpringkit143]

Puns everywhere! Gotta love wongfu😆

[@SirAgravaine]

Woman: PLEASE PLEASE LET ME BUY YOU A NEW SHIRT Man: No, really, not necessary Woman: (does it anyway) Strong Asian woman trait

[@THEMATT222]

That's just like my mom and her friends LOL

[@tiffanytan760]

This is just like me

[@AeroGold1]

Or creepy weirdo? Imagine a man forcing a women he's just met to wait for him to buy her shirt. Romcom "meet cute" plots like this are so cringe.

[@LanLe-gp2fp]

The way she was looking around to find the elf when it snowed 😭😭

[@ValorsoraEX]

The tradition of Chris Dinh narrating WF Christmas shorts continues

[@tn7176]

I thought he was going to say, “I’m a CEO.” Man, too much Korean dramas. 😂 BUT HOLY CRAP, I DID NOT EXPECT THIS TURN.

[@n1hondude]

Same here, and I don't even watch Korean dramas lol

[@josh4880]

Thought : All elves are hot asians

[@hsun7997]

more like you think all asian girls are hot..

[@brendonsforehead4961]

He’s so hot fr

[@Kayleenv18]

Her: You’re fit Me :Yes he is

[@_jennle]

OHMYGOD LISA YOU CANNOT JUST ASK SOMEONE WHY THEIR EARS AREN’T POINTY 😤

[@kaylavo4899]

How rude Lisa 😂

[@leluong4214]

Sorry, Can I ask that why Lisa can't say that? (I', Vietnamese)

[@iamjoeysteel]

@@leluong4214 Elves are known to have pointy ears, so it's playing like elf society considers it rude to ask. Like how many places it's rude to ask a woman's age.

[@thekristineway]

that ending made me cry once again..the one that got away😭 people come into our lives to teach us lessons and even tho it may seem bad at the time..like getting to know someone and then getting rejected by them, or feeling like you've connected with someone so well that they have to leave...there's a reason and lesson for all the ache😭❤

[@kimberlya.1530]

You can't be an elf because you're hot 😂😂😂

[@kawaiiafangirl]

When you're a Wong Fu fan and you recognize the narrator immediately as well as the radio hosts. Lol.

[@nunulisalways94]

I thought it was Benson..lol

[@iHEARTice94]

And who wrote the script!!!

[@dogoodjonathan]

CHRIS

[@pennypixie]

Right? As soon as the narrator started talking, "Chris!"

[@atomonx5582]

The most amazing thing ever

[@jemintherough3571]

*Narrator:* (In iambic pentameter) _What's next for Lisa, we may never know_ _JK! One year later she's with Mike Bow_

[@MikeBowShow]

A CLASSIC Christmas Carol 🎀🎀🎀

[@josephlansangan148]

8:22 rhyming's easy: "he was new to the city, she showed him around. they sat on a bench that was nailed to the ground."

[@9p03q9y0]

"rhyming is really hard okay" I feel ya dude.

[@wenm3559]

😂 😂 😂

[@graceyberlin]

When she said “he said he never loved me, it was all a lie” I FELT THATTTTTTRRT

[@panhia]

grace berlin sis me too!! 😭

[@vannisarithy7432]

I thought i could forget that until she mentioned it and my heart ache

[@DerickSeng]

Woah I felt that “love at first sight” with Peter. What the heck, did he get even MORE handsome?!!

[@officialying]

"Why aren't you tiny?" Whoa, stereotype. Hahaha good one.

[@alyssagee6444]

WAIT THAT DUDE GOT SOME MAGIC, WASN'T EXPECTING THIS TURN

[@reviboolicous]

me in the beginning: oh this is going to be cute. right in the feels. me in the middle: ... What the frost?! me at the end: ...damn it, mike bow!

[@CalaCrisp88]

I had a similar reaction to mike bow showing up hahaha

[@ingkitpringkit143]

SAME! I was like Mike Bow not now!!! >.

[@therealraytam]

Why did it take me so long to realize that Elliot, whose an elf that can fix/repair things, fixed Lisa's heart. Smh, it only took rewatching this a few times to figure it out.

[@cfrancistagalog]

the scene at the park where he touches her hand and the snow came down for the first time was probably it!

[@oreed]

It feels so good to watch an Asian-American cast in my hometown. I feel so represented. Beautifully shot and edited, music was great.

[@perfectlove33]

I was not expecting the elf. I was not expecting the plot twist. I’m sad they didn’t work out, but I appreciated how it was relatable because life doesn’t always work out the way you expect it to. Thank you for this production - it was beautiful. 💝❤️😭

[@wongfupro]

even if it was a brief time, it still meant something ❤️ thank you for watching!

[@perfectlove33]

That was the line that broke me into tears 😭

[@destinyjames6117]

Well, we don't always get what we want, do we?

[@aoi394]

Narrator: Some stories don’t need happy endings. Me, trying not to cry: YES THEY DO!!!

[@QuietPotato]

or at least a sequel so Elliot can be happy, darnit!

[@lilxengful]

OH MY GAD AFTER ELLIOT LEFT I STARTED BAWLING IM SO EMOTIONAL RIGHT WHY IS THIS SHORT SO K-DRAMA

[@mayedahussain6702]

Him- "I'm not actually a delivery guy Me as a joke- "I'M aN elF" *He says the exact same thing* Me: igduonvdzcsefhistswtgjohtdvji

[@Pacificc3]

OMG SAME!

[@silver1000]

“What the...FROST! NO FROSTIN’ WAY!” 🤣

[@wenm3559]

😂😂😂😂

[@iamwho8681]

Damn it, like always Wong Fu's endings are the best. They are unexpected yet dont leave me hanging always the perfect and beautiful ending. Love you Wong Fu thanks for doing what you do and helping me get through so many stages in my life. Been a fan for over 10 years. Love you Wong Fu 💙

[@XionProductions]

I am about the same as you but so opposite. Been a fan for years, probably about 10 as well, but this was awful to me. I want the beautiful perfect ending. That's why I watch movies and such. Life is crappy, not always, but you know what I mean. I get enough crap in life that when I watch something I want the happy ending. You said that Wong Fu has gotten you through so many stages in life. Yet I feel like Wong Fu hasn't grown up at all. All their stuff is about dating, and failed relationships, etc. Crappy endings. They give no hope to the future. I'm married, I have kids, life is so much more than these videos they make. I say all this to show how different two perspectives can be. I've grown a little disenchanted honestly with Wong Fu. I was really hoping this short was going to be the one that had the happy ending for once, but no, it's the same old thing. I suppose these are for someone, you seem to enjoy them, but I think they are stuck in a rut and the tragedies are becoming predictable now. I'll still watch, if only to hold out hope that someday they will give me a happy ending. A heartwarming happy ending.

[@chickenfriedrice905]

Xion Productions ok

[@Ben-ob4to]

Xion Productions ok

[@edbrann5768]

@@XionProductions Huh? She wound up with Mike Bow. How is that not a happy ending?

[@DaleDriven]

I can imagine chris’ facial expressions while he was narrating. The voice of Christmas

[@tinan1142]

Hallmark who? Wongfu’s coming to snatch the title of best cheesy romantic holiday movie. But for real this was so cute my heart literally melted 😭

[@victoriachen4869]

It’s so perfect to have Chris around for Christmas again :) even if it’s just his voice. He’s definitely the voice of Christmas for me.

[@xoladiihoneyxo]

To me, the elf in this short story represents someone who passed away and the snow is representing a certain moment of memory with a love one who has passed away. You remember about them and that special moment with that special someone but then you know you have to move on. Too dark for the holiday?

[@imacat3383]

That's deep 😢

[@qb1120]

Reminded me of the movie Last Christmas

[@SonicRadius]

@@qb1120 ... without the George Michael reference hitting you over the head throughout the movie! :)

[@taylachung8944]

Not even kidding i started crying. That was a roller coaster of a short 😭❤️😍

[@kayleenc4551]

LOL omg I was scrolling through comments because I thought I was the only one who tear'ed up 😭 the feels...

[@Shadow-gk4zb]

8:20 "He was new to the city and she was his guide". They found a bench where they could confide! Come on Chris!

[@viper1320]

The narrator is so hilarious! He went from calm to surprisingly loud! “Oh my god! Oh that’s bad!” 😆 Well done narrating! Comical and entertaining! Keep up the great work, Wong Fu Productions!

[@shobhitkumar3186]

They talked until the night , but by sunlight he was gone But by that time Lisa had something to carry on..... Poetry skills deserve appreciation. Too good 🙌

[@Deli24knight]

Loved the pacing of this short film! Both of the leads’ acting felt natural. The narration wasn’t annoying or cheesy too.

[@zengceng]

mm the last part when elliot makes it snow over lisa and her new bf made me teary

[@sarahwarner9044]

Oh Wongfu, even with it being an ending that isnt wrapped in a bow and “happy ending”, it still made me feel so warm inside with the snow and Lisa looking around for Elliot. 🥰 oh the feels

[@wongfupro]

ending wasn't wrapped in a bow... but it ended with a Bow 😂

[@lizzhann]

@@wongfupro 😂

[@bayareayackem100]

I can relate to this, this year. But not the elf part 😂

[@melindatn]

I didn't realise how much I really enjoy hearing Chris' voice being a narrator (and miss him in videos)... it's absolutely everything!

[@Yunakura]

No offense to Mike Bow but I would never pass up Peter Adrian

[@its_shyun1129]

Yunakura OMG sameeee though

The ending was the ending I expected Wong Fu to have. Realistic. I'm glad she moved on.

[@CryptoMafiaRookie]

Eliot changing his shirt Lisa: You don’t have to do that right now Me: Yes he dose!

[@quaintleaf1208]

this is cute af the beginning reminded me of a hallmark movie all in all, very easy to relate to and marvelously wholesome. and very entertaining as well. great job guys! thank you!

dat bts was dope doe

“Holland has one of the largest populations of Indonesians living outside of Indonesia” “no not that”

[@vinceyup1336]

...this is the Wong Fu feels I grew up into. I missed this! I truly do! Please bring these kinds of shorts back!

[@Asianpride2598]

The park scene where they were sitting, looked like the scene from Stranger Again.

[@shannonclark8313]

Why hello peter haven’t seen you in a while

[@sunflowersallyy]

olivia is so pretty omg. i know that she’s been trying to grow out her hair again but she looks great with short hair too. beautiful inside and out. also this short really was the perfect timing to give myself a break from my final exams! ☺️

[@cassiebanks]

Why didn't she just send Santa a letter? Dear Santa, I just met this wonderful guy. Unfortunately, his boss wants to send him somewhere else and take him out of my life. Personally I think it's a rather inhumane thing to do at Christmas, since the Christmas season is bad enough for some of us. Any chance this isn't going to be a horrible, cruel memory that will be etched on my soul forever? Your move. Yours truly,

[@kchou0907]

Not gonna lie, was not expecting that

[@paulkim5569]

The narrator is being like Dr. Seuss.

[@Escapos]

"I'm sorry Lisa, I didn't choose the elf life. The elf life chose me."

[@anushashrestha5255]

When he said "I am an elf." I felt that.

[@preciousfox4740]

Such a nice short, nice to hear Chris Dinh narrate again! Wasn't expecting that plot twist tho

[@omgsophielovesyou]

y’all didn’t need to make me cry like that😭

[@dindizon]

This gave me the bittersweet type of feels i loved this so much hallmark could literally never LMFAO olivia’s acting is everything I aspire to be, her and peter’s chemistry made my heart go uwu. Literally kudos to y’all at Wong Fu Productions for giving us asians representation with the best content possible for all these years. Y’all are frosting awesome

[@justinhopetercero7763]

That intro, progress, plot twist and ending was just amazing!! Classic Wong Fu, man.

i cant believe peter has an 8 year old daughter and is married... like he looks so young

[@crystalgl0w]

8yr old?! 😱

[@cc-rz7er]

His married and has a 8 yr old. no way he looks so young in his teens!!

[@chronic_masterbaetor69]

His girlfriend has a 9-10 year old. It’s not his. But they’ve been co-parenting. They’ve probably broken up now. Not sure.

[@manlinxu4977]

What comes after is not to be compared with the moment itself. This is what it felt like. Also I just love love love the name "Handle With Care". In a sense he was never meant to be with her. He was just there to mend her heart and to give her the courage to move on. Some people were just meant to do that. Nothing less, nothing more.

[@simhong1407]

THIS DESERVES SO MUCH MORE VIEWS AND LIKES WTFF... i love y'all story outlines

Damn I thought he was gonna say he was Santa

[@omsthetics]

this short makes me feel all warm and cozy inside, that was frosting terrific!

[@AsiatiqueMedia]

Most heartfelt Wong Fu short I've seen in a while 😭😭😭😭😭 1:59 When I saw the Bopomofo sign I thought like it's so convenient Phil has his own restaurant now, a lot easier to ask permission for a shooting location xD 18:04 Nice that you mentioned that the Netherlands has one of the largest populations of Indonesians living outside of Indonesia. I'm one of them! And nice that Chris is back as a narrator!

[@TEYJAMLK245]

Omg real sneaky WF with the "Santa's real" news in the beginning 😂 Also this is amazing as usual, it's been 10 years and I still get surprised by the plot twists and the story never fails to hit me right in the feels... 🎄

[@jingzhi15]

I am so jealous that he can un-crack the phone screen wow, I would save so much money :'(

[@Yuena]

Absolutely amazing. Forever pulling on our heart strings. Never change Wong Fu, it was so creative and touching please keep telling stories like these.

Am I the only one that rewinded to see if the flashback matched the bike crashing scene

[@Krazy808Gurl]

I immediately assumed this was gonna go along JRA's song

[@heidi64freedom]

Thank you for producing this short and thinking of the plot and everything because somehow I have been having something similar in life as well and thanks for bringing the narration to life and know that I am not the only one who's gonna think of someone like this in life. And some people can be that one to change sth so important later in life and also not leave too much hurt in me.

[@alexvu8690]

The elf was all in her imagination to help heal her broken heart so that she could learn to love again.
