[edit] Early career
Bosco's entertainment career began in 1998. He was spotted on the street by a talent-recruiter and soon appear for the first time in a lemon tea commercial and several minor modelling jobs. Recruiters offered him further opportunities but Bosco insisted on finishing his high school first. Right after high school graduation(Form 7) Bosco auditioned at TVB in 1999 at age 19. During his first few years in TVB, Bosco started off by hosting several TVB programmes and played cameo roles(celafare) in various TVB series.[1]
[edit] Growth
His debut came in 2003, when he was offered supporting roles in modern drama Triumph in the Skies, ancient series Find The Light, and youth drama Aqua Heroes. He then starred in Wong Fei Hung - Master of Kung Fu in 2004. In 2005 he stepped forward as a dramatic and comedic actor in Wars of In-Laws opposite Myolie Wu and Hong Kong acting legend Liza Wang - and obtained TVB's Most Improved Actor Award of the year. Afterwards, his performance in Dicey Business earned him even more exposure and recognition as a rising actor.[2] In October 2008, Bosco developed further by signing a singer contract with East Asia Music and released his debut EP in December of the same year.[3] He continue to grow his acting to another level in 2011 by taking charge of a villainous character "Bai Co" in Lives of Omission.[4]
