KWOK ONE Actor Dancer Martial Artist

I used to be ashamed of being small.
Growing up in the Netherlands — a country full of tall people — being a 1.49m Chinese boy made me feel different. I was bullied. I tried to hide. For a long time, my height felt like a curse.

Today, it’s my blessing.
Instead of shrinking myself, I built myself.

What once made me insecure now makes me unforgettable as a small Chinese actor in international film and television.

I work in Chinese, Dutch, German, English, Spanish, and Portuguese — because borders should never limit storytelling.

Here’s what I’ve learned:
The thing you’re insecure about…�might be your superpower.

In business.�In art.�In life.

Observe the masses — and dare to do the opposite.

Lean into your vulnerability.�That’s where your uniqueness lives.

I hope everyone finds the courage to turn their “curse” into their competitive advantage.

This fight scene in Maloney became something special — because it started with a simple question:

What if we turned the carrots into nunchucks?

As a three-time Nunchaku-Do champion, I suggested transforming the ordinary props into weapons — creating a fight that was both comedic and genuinely exciting. Instead of a standard scuffle, we built a carrot nunchaku fight: fast, rhythmic, slightly absurd… but technically precise.

Together with the stunt coordinator, the stunt performers, body doubles, and an incredibly experienced director who knew exactly how to frame action for both comedy and impact, we shaped the sequence beat by beat. Timing, camera angles, rhythm — everything had to work so the scene felt epic, playful, and dangerous at the same time.

The final cut is shorter than the full choreography we created — but the highlights remain. And yes… many, many carrots did not survive the process.
Huge respect to the prop team who kept producing carrot after carrot so we could smash them, spin them, and turn them into cinematic chaos.

For me, action is storytelling. Martial arts isn’t just about fighting — it’s about character, rhythm, and imagination.
If you want to see how the carrot nunchaku battle turned out, you can watch the episode on SRF Swiss Television.

Grateful to the entire team for trusting me to bring this idea to life.
