Jace Chan Hoi Wing (Chinese: 陳凱詠; pinyin: chén kǎiyǒng; Cantonese Yale: chàn hóiwihng) is a Hong Kong singer and actress. She debuted in the music industry in 2019 and won Metro Radio's New Artist Award.[1] Her song "Quarantine" (Chinese: 隔離) won her an additional award.[2]
Key Information
Her acting debut was a supporting role in the 2017 TV series Margaret & David - Ex (Chinese: 瑪嘉烈與大衛系列 前度) made by ViuTV.[citation needed]
Early life
[edit]Chan was born and raised in Hong Kong.[1]
Chan graduated from Hong Kong Baptist University, where she studied public relations and advertising, in 2016.[3][1]
Career
[edit]After graduation, Chan worked at Universal Music Hong Kong as an on-screen host for UM Webzine, its online entertainment channel, for two years.[1][3] In addition to that, she has also worked as a dance teacher and a stylist on Good Night Show - King Maker.[3][4] At this time, she began busking and performing with the Hong Kong band Dusty Bottle. She later signed with music label Universal Music in 2018.[1][3]
In 2019, she became one of the "Fabulous Four", becoming the new singer of that year. She released 3 songs that year: Sudden Urge (Chinese: 想突然), a R&B song featuring LMF and 24Herbs,[5] Trying for Normalcy (Chinese: 想正常), a heavier song, describing the conflicts in later stages of a relationship,[6] and Speak (Chinese: 講) whose demo was recorded in Paris.[7]
In 2020, Chan collaborated with Alex Fung to compose the melody of the song Born to be in Second Place (Chinese: 天生二品) alongside Hirsk, a Hong Kong Composer. The song was a success, managing to get to the top of the Music Charts of ViuTV, Commercial Radio, Metro Radio and RTHK.[8][9] In that August, she released a love song, Quarantine (Chinese: "隔離"), collaborating with Alex Fung again. Chan's friends, Z. Koo and Chung Suet Ying were the main actors in the music video. The song was another success, topping the charts on iTunes,[10] MusicOne,[11] and KKBOX.[12] This song also became one of the 10 best songs recommended by Metro Radio. A duet version with the indie singer Terence Lam was also made.[13]
In 2021, Chan reused the crew and invited Terence Lam to be a co-composer of the song The Virtual Man & ME (Chinese: 虛擬人與我), a song about an online relationship.[14] She released her first album, Processing, on May 14, 2021, and the album reached the golden award sales (15,000 copies sold) on its first day out. Songs from the album were listened to approximately 2 million times on MOOV.[15] The album contained all Chan's previous songs as well as a new song, "I Wish," which expressed Chan's hope for relieving stress and doing things her audience likes without being restricted. It became the top song on the charts of RTHK, Commercial Radio, TVB and ViuTV. Chan has also invited the vocal of bands Chochukmo and R.O.O.T, Jan Curious to record a Poolside Version.[16] In July, Chan was chosen by Spotify to be the Hong Kong representative for their July EQUAL Global Music Program and her portrait was on the screen of New York Times Square.[17] On August 20, Chan held her first concert under the sponsorship of American Express, though the way its tickets were sold led to disputes in the music community.[18][19]
In 2022 Chan released a R&B song "Long D" composed by Jay Fung and reenacted many classic old Hong Kong movie scenes in its music video.[20] She sung in 21 shows of the musical Bye-Bye Your Tale in August that year.[21]
In early 2023, Chan was dropped by her label, Universal Music Group, over conflicting values. After her contracts expired, she independently released her five-song EP, Hatchling, in October 2023.[3][22] All the songs on the EP were written by Chan, unlike her previous projects.[3]
In 2024, she co-headlined the Moov Live and 903 Music is Live concerts and made a guest performance at Sammi Cheng's concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum. At the 2024 Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation, Chan won the Silver Prize for Best Female Singer and "I'm Tired" was awarded second place in the Top 10 Songs of the Year.

Biography
Early life and education
Jace Chan was born on March 11, 1994, in Hong Kong, where she was raised in a local environment amid the city's vibrant cultural scene.[6] Information on her family background remains limited in public records, with few details available about her parents or siblings influencing her early years. Growing up in Hong Kong, Chan developed an interest in performance from a young age, particularly through dance, which she began pursuing at 15. She spent much of her free time in her late teens and early twenties teaching dance part-time and busking on the streets to bossa nova tunes, activities that honed her artistic expression before formal professional pursuits.[3] Chan pursued higher education at Hong Kong Baptist University, graduating with a degree in public relations and advertising. During her studies, she balanced academics with extracurricular activities, though her early passion for dance occasionally took a backseat amid university demands. These formative experiences in education and performance laid the groundwork for her later entry into the entertainment industry.[7][3]Career overview
Following her graduation from Hong Kong Baptist University with a degree in public relations and advertising, Jace Chan began her professional journey as a dance teacher before transitioning to hosting roles, including as an anchor for Billboard China and an on-screen host for Universal Music Hong Kong's UM Webzine for two years.[8][2] These early experiences honed her performance skills, drawing from her university education in communication and her longstanding passion for dance that began in adolescence.[2] Chan entered the entertainment industry with her acting debut in 2017, taking on minor supporting roles in Hong Kong television productions, which marked her initial foray into on-screen work.[2] She shifted to music in 2019, debuting as a singer with the single "Sudden Urge" under Universal Music Hong Kong, a release that earned her the Metro Radio New Artist Award and established her presence in the local Canto-pop scene.[6] From 2021 to 2025, she released her debut album Processing in 2021, the EP Hatching in 2023, and her second studio album REVOLVING: UP in August 2025, while taking a six-month hiatus starting in August 2022 due to conflicts with her label that led to her being shelved.[9][10][11][12] In early 2023, after parting ways with Universal Music over creative differences, Chan transitioned to independent artistry by founding her own company, Jace World, which allowed her to reinvent Canto-pop through experimental elements like voguing in her choreography and electropop influences in her sound.[7][2][3] This period culminated in releases such as the 2023 EP Hatching and the 2025 album REVOLVING: UP, reflecting her multifaceted evolution as a singer, dancer, and actress focused on personal expression and genre innovation.[2][13][12]Discography
Studio albums
Jace Chan's debut studio album, Processing, was released on May 14, 2021, through Universal Music Hong Kong.[14] The album, comprising 18 tracks in its deluxe edition including demos and bonus material, marked her transition to a more mature electropop sound, blending introspective lyrics on emotional processing and self-discovery with electronic production elements.[15] Key tracks include "I Wish," a reflective ballad about longing and regret, and "Quarantine" (featuring a studio live duet version with Terence Lam), which captured pandemic-era isolation themes.[16] Production involved collaborations with artists like Phat Chan on "想突然 (Sudden Thought)" and emphasized layered synths and R&B influences, reflecting Chan's evolving artistry post her 2019 debut.[17] The full track listing for Processing is as follows:| No. | Title | Featured Artist | Length |

Extended plays and singles
Jace Chan's extended plays and singles span her career from debut to recent independent releases, showcasing her evolution in Cantopop with R&B influences, collaborations, and multilingual experiments. Her debut single, "Sudden Urge" (想突然), released in 2019 and featuring Phat, marked her breakthrough as a newcomer with its smooth R&B production and urban edge, contributing to her winning the Metro Radio Hit Awards' New Artist Award that year.[22] Later that year, she released "困獸鬥," a high-energy collaboration with rapper FatBoy@ERROR serving as the theme song for ViuTV drama Showman's Show (娛樂風雲), blending fierce lyrics on ambition with trap beats to highlight the entertainment industry's competitive struggles.[23] In 2021, Chan issued several non-album singles amid the COVID-19 pandemic's thematic resonance. "沒有無緣無故的恨," released on August 20, explores relational resentment through introspective Cantonese lyrics and minimalistic arrangement, earning widespread streaming acclaim in Hong Kong. The duet "隔離" (Quarantine), initially a solo track from 2020 but released as a studio live version with Terence Lam on September 29, 2020, captures isolation's emotional toll with harmonious vocals and piano-driven production, gaining international attention for its timely message.[24] Chan's experimentation with English-language tracks began earlier with "Forever Summer," a 2018 collaboration with producer Dusty Bottle featuring sunny, indie-pop vibes and full English lyrics, later included in her 2021 album Processing but initially released as a standalone digital single to test global appeal.[25] Preceding her 2025 album Revolving: Up, Chan released singles such as "大車" (BIG CARS) and "蛻" (SWITCH) in early 2025 under Jace World. Following a label dispute and independent pivot, her single "PTSD," released October 7, 2025, addresses trauma recovery through raw, atmospheric electronica, reflecting personal resilience.Extended plays
Chan's initial EP, UNBORDERED Live, arrived on March 29, 2022, via Universal Music Ltd., capturing intimate live recordings from her concert series with seven tracks blending originals like "收聲多謝" and "How Many Times / 隔離" alongside a cover of Avril Lavigne's "Sk8er Boi," emphasizing her versatile stage presence and fan engagement during restricted live events.[26] After parting ways with Universal in early 2023 due to creative differences, Chan founded Jace World and self-released Hatching on October 16, 2023, a five-track EP featuring her songwriting with contributions from local artists, focusing on rebirth and self-empowerment themes post-hiatus; standout cuts include the motivational "Calm Down 練功" and the bilingual "Sigue Haciendo 時機已到" featuring Chung Suet Ying, which garnered a nomination for EP of the Year at the Singapore Freshmusic Awards.[27][2]Filmography

Chan's most notable film role to date came in 2019 with the crime thriller Integrity, directed by Alan Mak, where she portrayed Law Fat's girlfriend in a narrative centered on Hong Kong's Independent Commission Against Corruption investigating high-stakes smuggling and bribery.[30] This supporting part in a commercially released production, which grossed over HK$31 million at the box office, underscored her ability to contribute to intense, plot-driven genres.[1] In 2022, Chan starred in the short film Anima Possession, directed by Wai Mo Chan, playing a lead role in a story about a pair of female lovers, one of whom is a humanoid, seeking to mend their relationship at a robot repair shop.[31] No additional feature films starring Chan have been released as of November 2025.Television
Jace Chan's television career began with her acting debut in the 2017 ViuTV drama series Margaret & David - Ex, where she portrayed a supporting role in this anthology exploring relationships and personal dilemmas.[2] The series, consisting of multiple episodes, marked her entry into scripted television, highlighting her versatility beyond music.[32] In 2019, she appeared in the ViuTV drama Showman's Show as Ngai Pui Lam / "Lam Lam" in a supporting role across the 100-episode series about the entertainment industry.[33] In 2021, Chan expanded into hosting with Dance for Life, a TVB educational program focused on dance and youth development, where she served as a main host across all 11 episodes.[34] The show featured mentorship segments and performances, allowing Chan to engage directly with participants and mentors like Grace Wong and Chin Ka Lok.[35] That same year, she appeared as a regular member in All Suspicious, a ViuTV variety show blending investigative games and challenges, contributing to 12 of its 15 episodes (specifically episodes 1-6 and 9-15).[36] Also in 2021, Chan guest-starred in episode 4 of the TVB drama Buildings Department Special as Chan Wan Yee / Mika in a main role for that installment of the 7-episode anthology series addressing building safety issues.[37] Chan's guest appearances include a performance slot in the 2021 ViuTV special Chill Club: The New Vibes, a music-focused event where she collaborated with artists like Joyce Cheng and Yoyo Sham.[38] In 2022, she guested on episode 16 of The Popcorn Show, a ViuTV entertainment program discussing pop culture, sharing insights alongside hosts Vincent Kok and Bondy Chiu.[39] In 2023, Chan appeared in the RTHK TV series Below the Lion Rock - The Lift of Life, an anthology exploring social themes through stories of everyday Hong Kongers.[40] More recently, in 2024, Chan made a guest appearance at the Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation, performing and receiving the Silver Prize for Best Female Singer during the televised ceremony.[41] These roles underscore her ongoing presence in Hong Kong's television landscape, balancing acting, hosting, and variety formats.[33]Videography
Music videos
Jace Chan's music videos for her original songs emphasize personal growth, emotional introspection, and stylistic experimentation, often directed by collaborators in Hong Kong's creative scene. Her debut visual, "想突然 (Sudden Urge)" (feat. Phat), released in February 2019, introduced a fresh, energetic aesthetic with urban street scenes and dynamic choreography, marking her entry into the industry under Universal Music Hong Kong. Directed and edited by Feel Good Inn, the video captures impulsive romance through quick cuts and playful interactions, garnering attention as her breakout visual.[42] In 2021, the "I Wish" music video, directed by Kin-Long Chan, showcased a dreamy, ethereal concept blending live-action with VFX elements to explore longing and escapism, filmed with cinematography by Rick Lau. Released in May, it highlights Chan's vulnerable performance amid surreal landscapes and soft lighting. A remix version, "I Wish (Poolside Version)" (feat. Jan Curious), followed in July, shifting to a relaxed, summery vibe with poolside settings and lighter electronic influences, extending the song's themes of wistful desire.[43][44][45][46] The 2023 Digital EP Hatching included visuals like the "Calm Down 練功" official music video, released in November, which incorporates training motifs and self-empowerment through structured dance sequences.
