Background and debut
Edan was born in Hong Kong on 21 January 1997. He attended Salesian Yip Hon Millennium Primary School in Kwai Chung and the acclaimed Ho Fung College. Edan achieved high scores in the HKDSE.[1] While studying business administration at the University of Hong Kong in 2018, Edan auditioned for ViuTV's reality talent competition Good Night Show - King Maker playing piano and singing Tanya Chua's "Blank Space", which put him through to the Top 50. Prior to competition, Edan was already a holder of Grade 8 certificates in both piano and violin, and is known to have perfect pitch. Edan finished the competition in eighth place, earning him a spot in the twelve-member boy group MIRROR. The group debuted on 3 November 2018[2] with the single "In a Second" (Chinese: 一秒間).[3]
Music
In January 2021, Edan was the sixth MIRROR member to drop his solo debut "Mr. E's Series of Unfortunate Events" (E先生 連環不幸事件)[4] which topped the 903 Top 20, Metro Radio Madden Song Chart and Chill Club charts. It also topped JOOX Hong Kong's Best-Selling Song Chart of Mid-2021.[5] Later that year, he also released singles "Little Comedian" (小諧星) and "My Apple Pie" as a solo artist, as well as "Talents" (一表人才) / "A Promising Young Man" (年輕有為) as a pair of duets with Taiwanese singer Kenny Khoo (Qiu Fengze). Edan's musical pursuits in 2021 gained him the Newcomer Award at the 2021 Metro Radio Hit Awards, the Silver Newcomer Award at the 2021 Ultimate Song Chart Awards, and the Silver Newcomer Award at the 2021/2022 Chill Club Chart Awards.
On 1 April 2022, Edan released his first dance single, "Elevator". The song is also the first of Edan's solo singles to feature him rapping.
In June 2022, Edan sang a duet with Leo Ku as part of Ku's special album, IRLTS (I Really Love To Sing) which revisits his old songs and re-releases them as collaborations. Edan features on the first single, Floating Classroom (漂流教室), which was originally released in 2004.
Television
Edan made his acting debut on the sitcom Showman Show (2019), playing a religious young man who dreams of debuting in a boy band. He played a major supporting role with other MIRROR members as one of the team members in the volleyball drama We are the Littles (2020), and earned critical acclaim starring as Tin Yat-hung in the romantic comedy drama Ossan's Love (2021), a remake of the original Japanese television drama. In July 2022, Edan played Marven Lee, one of the lead roles in iSWIM, which is a ten-episode miniseries directed by Fung Chih-Chiang. Later this year, he will also feature in the basketball drama We Got Game alongside fellow MIRROR members Stanley Yau and Keung To.
Film
In June 2021, it was announced that Edan would soon make his big screen debut in Lunar New Year comedy Chilli Laugh Story (2022), co-starring Sandra Ng, Gigi Leung, and Ronald Cheng. Edan plays the role of Coba, who is based on the film's director and screenwriter, Coba Cheng. Edan also sings the original soundtrack "When Life Gives You Chillies" (辣到出汁) with Sandra Ng and Gigi Leung. The film's premiere was originally scheduled for February of 2022, but was postponed until 14 July 2022 due to cinemas across Hong Kong being closed as a result of COVID pandemic restrictions. The film surpassed 10,000,000 HKD at the Hong Kong box office within four days.
Edan is also set to feature in two more upcoming films in 2023, including Hong Kong Family which will also star Teresa Mo, and Over My Dead Body (死屍死時四十四), a horror comedy in which Edan will once again work with Ronald Cheng, and also features fellow MIRROR member Jer Lau in a supporting role. Hong Kong Family is Edan's first major role in the dramatic genre. He also sings the original soundtrack, Ants Climbing to Heaven, for the film.
In September, Sandra Ng, the producer of Chilli Laugh Story, announced that the film would have a sequel featuring the original cast, this time centring around the theme of mahjong. The film is scheduled to be released around the Lunar New Year period of 2023.[6]
Variety shows
Edan told his manager early during his debut with MIRROR that he wanted to pursue work in variety shows. Despite appearing shy and reserved, Edan displayed his comedic side on MIRROR GO, which saw Edan and his bandmates travel to different countries to take on absurd and dangerous challenges. Following two seasons of MIRROR GO, Edan has also hosted a number of variety shows on ViuTV, including Taiwan Meimei (2019) (臺灣文西Only You), which he hosted alongside Cantonese opera veteran Law Kar-ying, and the game show Battle Feel (考有Feel). His most notable work as a host is for the game show Be ON Game (膠戰), which has run for two seasons to date, with a third season in planning stages.[7]
