Early life and career beginnings

Ng was born on 2 September 1979 in Hong Kong. He has an older sister. In 1999, he enrolled into Hong Kong broadcasting station TVB's dance training course. [3] Under the recommendation of actor Louis Koo (for whom Ng appeared as a background dancer for), Ng joined TVB as an actor after graduating from the station's acting classes. He began his career with minor roles, such as in Burning Flame II . [4] [5]

Career

As actor

In 2003, Ng was cast in a lead role in the historical custome drama Find the Light , starring alongside Damian Lau and Bosco Wong. That same year, Ng's breakthrough role came in the role of pilot trainee Issac Tong in the highly acclaimed Triumph in the Skies. Ng won TVB's Most Improved Actor Award in 2004 for his performance in the drama Twin of Brothers at the 37th TVB Anniversary Awards. Since then, Ng had been highly promoted at TVB, being cast as the male lead in most dramas. Ng was voted Super Idol by TVB Weekly and My Favorite TV character in Astro Wah Lai Toi TV Awards in 2005.

In 2005, he portrayed the strong-willed Cheung Lap-Man in The Academy , a drama about police training. The drama was renewed for two more installments, On the First Beat (2007) and E.U. (2009), in which Ng reprised his role. Ng appeared in the movie Moments of Love in 2005, marking his film debut.
