This is the 72nd instalment in a biweekly series profiling major Hong Kong pop culture figures of recent decades.
What do Chow Yun-fat, Timothee Chalamet and Doh Kyung-soo have in common? They have all had to keep up with the razor-sharp mind of Hong Kong actress and television host Carol “Dodo” Cheng Yu-ling.
From teaching Hollywood heartthrobs Cantonese to hosting the city’s most prestigious galas, Cheng’s presence is ubiquitous. Anyone who has watched the TVB anniversary awards or the local broadcaster’s annual Miss Hong Kong Pageant has likely seen her face.
