Ekin
Cheng 
(Cheng Yee Kin, Cheng Yi Kin, Dior Cheng, Noodle Cheng)
Actor, Singer
Born: October 4, 1967
Ekin Cheng Yee Kin is one of Hong Kong's most popular entertainers.
He started his career by enrolling in TVB's Artists Training Course, and began co-hosting
the children's program Shuttle 430. It wasn't long before he was starring in highly rated
dramas. Ekin made his film debut as a nerdy virgin who falls for Carina Lau in Girls
Without Tomorrow (1992). He soon signed with BMG records and launched a successful
singing career, continuing to act as he developed his growing idol status.
In 1996 Ekin starred as triad member Chan Ho Nam in the smash hit Young & Dangerous.
The movie spawned four other sequels in which he starred, and led to other heroic lead
roles in high profile action pictures such as The Legend of Speed, A Man Called Hero
and The Stormriders. His films are frequently tied in with current fads in popular culture-
video games, comics, and other trends which tend to appeal to younger audiences.
Working in high budget releases for filmmakers like Andrew Lau, Jingle Ma and Wong
Jing, Ekin came to be one of HK's most purely commercial actors, a position which
has won him few awards, but many fans all throughout Asia.
Though his well publicized breakup with actress Maggie Siu hurt his image temporarily,
Ekin has kept a positive relationship with the public. Ever the good guy, Ekin played
the flashy, mustached villain in Johnnie To's Running Out of Time 2 (2002) for a
change in character. With recent roles in big budget action films The Twins Effect
and Heroic Duo, Ekin's commercial success shows no signs of waning.
