He also took the opportunity to rally for votes for Sunday's awards presentation, hoping that everyone votes for "Exorcist's" for 'Best Series'. He said, "Experienced a lot of misery while filming 'Exorcist's'. To have such a good script under a low-budget production, many people are waiting to watch a sequel. If [we] are able to win an award at the company's awards presentation, believe that the chance of filming a sequel will increase greatly".

Kenneth attaches great importance to team awards. As for personally fighting for TV king, he said that he would be very happy to win the award; if there is no award, he will continue to work hard next time. He is already extremely blissful to have an opportunity to play the character Ma Kwai. He revealed that he did not vote for himself. As for which actor he had voted for, it is inconvenient to disclose it, but he voted for Natalie Tong for TV queen.

"Exorcist's" producer Fong Chun Chiu accepted an interview. He said that this series' genre is refreshing and is suitable for the younger generation, thereby having an advantage in online voting. Apart from the genre being new, there is also familial love that struck a chord with the viewers' tears, but [he] is facing the results of Sunday's awards presentation with a calm attitude. He supports Kenneth to become TV king, as he can be funny, but his emotional scenes are also contagious.
