Soo Wing Kong, born in Xinhui, Guangdong, participated in the fourth New Talent Singing Awards in 1985 and won the runner-up, signed with Emperor Entertainment Group. In 1989, he released his first solo album "Insomnia", but his singing career stagnated afterwards. In 1998, Soo Wing Kong starred in the TV drama series "Healing Hands" of TVB, playing a doctor, and sang the series' theme song "The More We Kiss, The More We Hurt", which brought him popularity and awards at the music awards that year.
"Men Shouldn't Make Women Cry", "The More We Kiss, The More We Hurt", "Loving Someone Is So Hard"... These momentarily popular sentimental love songs are closely associated with a name, that's Soo Wing Kong. Do you know, the reason why Soo Wing Kong has never held concerts in mainland China is because-- "I have never promoted my own albums in mainland China, I lack confidence in myself." "People often ask me, you sing love songs so well, then you must have a lot of romantic experiences?" Soo Wing Kong jokingly answers himself, "How is that possible", he metaphorically explains that singing is like acting, there is absolutely no need to personally experience every song's emotion. "I have not received any professional training myself, so when I play characters opposite to my personality, I can't do it at all, unlike professional actors who can handle it with ease. Currently, I am filming a Republican-era drama in Hong Kong with Charmaine Sheh, where I play the male lead, an ancient lawyer." Soo Wing Kong revealed that in the drama, he will still wear glasses, but he will switch to antique glasses he deliberately found in a flea market. "This drama is a test for me now, if successful, it will help my acting career." In September 27, 1999, he married his girlfriend Jane Feng Liqing from Singapore, in 2002, he was involved in a drug case in Taiwan, only serving an 11-day compulsory rehabilitation in prison before being released, during his time in prison, he was visited by former Vice President of Taiwan, Lu Xiulian.
