Political participation
Cho is amongst many Hong Kong celebrities with patriotic stances in support of
pro-Beijing camp
.
In 2016, Cho posted a message on
Weibo, which he regarded the Rules of Law in Hong Kong "is dying" when the Spokesman of Hong Kong Indigenous - Edward Leung in 2016 Mong Kok civil unrest was judged as innocence.[4]
On 20 May 2019, Cho responded on a Facebook news article written about activist Joshua Wong, and made a post celebrating Wong's time in jail. Afterwards, he replied: "希望佢快啲香" (Cantonese: "Wishing him a death very soon"). Cho's replies garnered massive controversy around the internet sphere as numerous Hong Kong netizens back. Cho then added with a provocative tone that he would not argue with “trash when it is meaningless”.[5]
