Hong Kong actor Jason Wong was the victim of a brutal attack last August after getting slashed in the face by a knife-wielding man in Shenzhen.

In a Weibo post on Wednesday (April 26), Wong said the court discovered that his attacker had a history of abusing methamphetamine and cough syrup – which caused him to experience hallucinations.
