Pierre is one good looking dude! Humble and pleasant personality.

[@leongevan4105]

Yes my favourite make actor Me old anty pun like him handsome n watever lah

[@YouGotWatch]

can't agree more!!

[@johnnyhs_ngnng5554]

I cannot agree more. But not everything is 👍🏾

[@jx9936]

Pierre is one of the finest actors in Singapore. We all fall in love with his role as Phua Chu Beng in our favorite sitcom Phua Chu Kang. Then when he switched from English dramas to Chinese dramas, he really paid tons of efforts brushing up the language and played his roles perfectly with an exquisite twist of Pierre's style. A true class act and a dignified gentleman indeed!!

[@johnnyhs_ngnng5554]

Hello Christopher, I agree that Pierre, is good but if not better is expected. I think you have over praised him by tons. However, I respect your decision. He will be come a spoil child, soon.

[@louisel2898]

Pierre Png is definitely one of the handsome actors in Sg. Hmm...suddenly I find that he looks like Tony Leung (HK actor) in certain angles here.

[@user-dv7kp6pn5k]

most*

[@johnnyhs_ngnng5554]

Hello Louise, you are wrong. I know Tony Leung personally compares with Pierre the latter is more handsome, at least he is taller than Tony Leung.

[@paperluvxhearts8510]

I love how much he love his wife

[@johnnyhs_ngnng5554]

Hello Paperluvx, I know this is not your real name, but this doesn’t matter to me. What matters is why you are interested how much Pierre love his wife?

[@ABC-ed8cg]

He’s such a down-to-earth and genuine person. 😍😍 Everyone should speak impeccable English like him. He’s also a gentleman. My hubby will argue if i try to correct his bad habits unlike Pierre who’s so respectful to his wife.

[@carolcheong247]

Such a genuine and sincere person. 👍👍

[@tatatong1]

I always love Pierre Png, he's fantastic in speaking both languages English & Mandarin! Love watching all his dramas!

[@onglielie]

Lol

[@SGrailadventure2004]

Especially in When Duty Calls, his so funny in that show lol.

[@embershen364]

I also didn’t know that Pierre is supposed to be pronounced as Pii-air. No wonder I had a colleague who didn’t respond when I called him “Peer”.

[@YouGotWatch]

😉

[@johnnyhs_ngnng5554]

Hello Miss Ember, there people who want to adopt a rare Christian name just to avoid crashing with another person having the same name, besides this, do you think is there any better reason for him to adopt such strong strange name?

[@babymonster007]

I am honoured and happy to work with him onset he is kind hearted and humble he is also one of my favorite artist in MediaCorp too for mandrain class in school he fortunately can learn in school even in secondary school I only learn until primary school from p3-p6 why I like and support Pierre is not just good looking dude he also humble and caring kind hearted person in reality

[@Mrgonzosaturday]

I kinda misheard him saying "F**CKER" when he said "Fa-Ge"

[@YouGotWatch]

🤭

[@SGrailadventure2004]

Love his performance in several dramas like The Journey: A Voyage and When Duty Calls.

[@share_accidental]

i first knew about pierre in ‘the little nyonya’ & i was so proud of him when i saw him in ‘crazy rich asians’!

[@HongNguyen-td9uw]

I’ve watched “Crazy rich asians” first, and just finished “The little Nionya” few days ago, but i couldn’t recognize him in that drama, except his mole ;)) he had such a great performance as an actor

[@atan9949]

[@Confidego]

Really a great guy!

[@bigmattwheel]

[@rkninrknin4610]

Sweet guy

[@seraphinalow4247]

Pierre, how is it that you don't age after all these years? haha :) keep up the good work and smile always! will always support you wherever you are.

[@idagonchannel5681]

"My life is depending on my weakest subject" One most relatable quote for me. haha. I got to live with my weakest subject which is math.

[@bobododo100]

Love his acting! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@ComradeConfucius]

He sounds like Phua Chu Beng.

[@StArLiTe5691]

😂

[@YouGotWatch]

🤣 definitely an iconic character we love!

[@ComradeConfucius]

@@YouGotWatch I will probably create a character like PCK on my KZbin channel👈. I'll call him Uncle Wong and basically he'll be calling out Anglo Imperialism in a funny way. 😂

[@GamingTohru698]

Pierre is a legend!

[@simply._chxx3054]

He is super handsome

[@roseanggraeni7824]

Im indonesian but i like his all drama .

[@Gurashi]

Michael Teo is very pivotal in Book 2. Though I can perfect picture Pierre in the scenes depicted in Book 1 that didn't make it to the movie..

[@endi4654]

How come he never age?

[@YouGotWatch]

We should have added that into one of the assumptions! We definitely want to know how. 😎

[@iriswongz8056]

hearts

[@jen5138]

Pierre is a good guy. Andrea is so lucky!

[@jianxiongRaven]

👍

[@fongqj1351]

Hahahaha the fa ge part so funny

[@mariskatan9614]

Yes it is supposed to be fa-哥 not fa-ke. But even if it is, for the bad word (fuc#er) the stressed syllable is on the first syllabble ("fuv#) not on the second syllable. So when he prounced fa-ke (stress on the second syllable "ke"), the Anglosphere speakers will not find it offensive at all.

[@Kopi_foodie_sg]

Tipsy Flamengo opening soon

[@jessiejames7492]

Thats not so bad. I am eurasian too. Our surname has been mispronounced so many time sometimes hilariously. My father said that if we had a dollar each time our nsme has been mispronounced, wr would be rich! Honest truth

[@johnnyhs_ngnng5554]

Hello Pear, I like to watch your program on KZbin as I’m doing it now. I find you are eloquent speaker on stage. Your English is perfect. If you do not show your handsome face, people think you are a Gwello ( westerner) coming back to your name Pierre PNG aka PP in short. I agree with you that Pierre is rare and even I too missed pronounced your name as Pear. I didn’t do it purposely as you had said before that, as a tutor you had too mispronounced your name marriage life. Other than this your Mandarin is super. You can use your Mandarin to talk a bird from the top of a tree down to the ground. Pear, do you want to jump ship if so change your job to foreign minister as your tongue is sharper than a knife. Good Day. Bye, bye, Pear.

[@ceciliapremala1393]

How do I get to watch his dramas.
