HONG KONG — Veteran singer Miriam Yeung concluded her six-show Live MY LIVE 2025 residency at the Hong Kong Coliseum on December 4, triumphantly marking the end of a demanding series of performances. Following the final curtain call, Yeung expressed profound emotion over the culmination of the concerts, acknowledging the long and challenging path back to the iconic venue.
“This road home was incredibly long; there were times I came close but couldn’t secure it,” Yeung stated, reflecting on the difficulty of obtaining the highly competitive Coliseum slot. She viewed the delay as invaluable preparation, noting that the past few years provided extensive opportunities to practice and hone her craft. The concerts also served as an emotional reunion, allowing her to connect with friends and colleagues she had not seen in years, contributing to the sense of fulfillment. Securing the dates, Yeung admitted, inspired a desire to perform “one more song, whenever possible.”
Overcoming Technical Issues and Prioritizing Safety
The concert series was not without incident. During the third show, a signal malfunction left a stunt performer suspended at height for an extended period. Consequently, Yeung’s team opted to cancel the aerial descent segment for the final performance as a precaution. Yeung confirmed that the performer received a full medical check-up and was unharmed, subsequently returning to perform in the remaining shows.
The organizing body demonstrated considerable care, providing the performer with a “red packet” (a customary monetary gift) to cover medical expenses. Yeung shared a heartwarming anecdote: the performer not only returned the next day proclaiming his wellness but also made a donation to disaster relief efforts, a gesture that deeply impressed the team. Addressing speculation regarding her own well-being, Yeung clarified that a sudden sharp pain she experienced—which sounded like a “snap”—was not a serious injury but likely a muscle strain.
Balancing Professional Demands and Family Life
Yeung revealed that the intense rehearsal and performance schedule necessitated a temporary separation from her family. To avoid disrupting the routine of her son, Torres Ding, she opted to stay in a hotel throughout the residency. With the concert completed, her immediate priority is a return to domestic life and family time.
The singer plans to take several months of hiatus to recuperate. “I’ve neglected my family for too long,” she admitted, recognizing the strain placed on her husband, Real Ding, who managed all household matters during the concerts. Her break will focus on spending time with her parents and son. Travel plans will be postponed until after her son’s school holiday period. Yeung noted the rapid maturity of Torres, expressing gratitude that he still engages in conversation, emphasizing her effort to maintain a close, supportive role akin to a friend.
Mobilizing Compassion After Tragic Incident
A significant element of the concerts was the team’s response to the devastating fifth-alarm fire in Tai Po’s Hong Fuk Court. Yeung and her team donated HK$2 million and proceeds from concert merchandise to aid the victims. A moment of silence was observed nightly prior to each performance.
Yeung described the disaster as profoundly painful, particularly as a mother. She praised her team for quickly addressing their collective emotional distress and unifying under a shared purpose: transforming their music into a source of positive energy and direct aid for those affected. Team members included individuals who knew victims personally. Yeung emphasized the profound importance of offering comfort and presence to those enduring acute grief, underscoring the collective effort to turn tragedy into compassionate action.
