Biography

Early career

Bosco's journey in the entertainment world began in 1998 when he was spotted on the street by a talent-recruiter which led him to his first appearance in a lemon tea commercial. The commercial made TVB notice him and called him for an audition. As a result, right after graduating from Form 7 in high school Bosco stepped his feet into TVB in 1999 at a tender age of 19 instead of pursuing his initial dream of becoming a chef. For his first few years in TVB, Bosco spent his time as a host for several TVB programmes and occasionally played cameo roles in various TVB series.[1]

Growth

His debut came in 2003, when he was offered supporting roles in TVB Grand Production Triumph in the Skies, ancient production Find The Light, and youth series Aqua Heroes. He then took on the title role in Wong Fei Hung - Master of Kung Fu in 2004. In 2005 he made his mark as a solid dramatic and comedic actor in the popular series Wars of In-Laws opposite Myolie Wu and Hong Kong acting legend Liza Wang. Notably, his performance in Wars of In-Laws obtained him TVB's Most Improved Actor Award in late 2005. Afterwards, his performance in Dicey Business earned him even more exposure and recognition as a rising actor.[2] In October 2008, Bosco went further on his career development by signing a singer contract with East Asia Music and released his debut EP in December of the same year.[3]

Personal

Growing up in Hong Kong public housing estates as an only child raised by a single mother - following his parents' divorce when he was only one year old, Bosco was often regarded by his peers as a playful person. Although plagued with negative press in the earlier stages of his career, he has since overcome them and stresses to reporters that he is adamantly not the "bad boy" the press has made him out to be.[4] In his private life, he is said to devote a substantial amount of time at home with his mother and his dogs. He has numerous, on-going rumors about dating co-star Myolie Wu since Wars of In-Laws aired, albeit both parties insisted that they are only close friends.[5]
