They have the looks and street cred. Beyond that, they’re multi-talented, having conquered the red carpet and taken ownership of social media. They act, host, sing, direct and produce. In this celebrities’ edition of 20 Good Men of 2020, Her World presents a talent-stacked list who are making their mark in Singapore, China, Taiwan and India.
You might recognise Feng Ze as the actor in That Girl in Pinafore, where he previously went by the name Kenny Khoo, but did you know that he has since branched out into singing and is making a name for himself in Taiwan?
The 31-year-old singer/songwriter/host tells us what it's like to be based in Taiwan.
I’m hoping to work on a new album this year end, following up from my previous one... it has been a year since. This time, I hope to explore new musical concepts and bring new sounds to the table.
I’ve evolved since starting my record label, Reason Brothers, with my partner Waii Hoong. I began to delve deeper into the music industry... how the whole business works, from making a song, doing a video, getting it to the market, and connecting with the audience. On a personal level, I’ve become more grounded and calm. In the process of managing a company, we’ve faced many challenges, and we got through them by solving the problems creatively.
It’s similar to Singapore. Being in Taiwan makes me more independent as I run my own errands. I come back home every three to six months... I miss my family and friends the most.
My dream was to be a drummer or actor. But I chose singing as I have the strongest passion for it. I wish I had started music much earlier... I could’ve been more proficient in playing the piano or any instrument.
