HONG KONG – Mirror member Stanley Cheung, known to fans as邱士縉, took center stage Wednesday to promote the upcoming ViuTV drama “Sunset Rainbow,” sharing insights into his latest acting project, a new love song, and his relationship with his fiancée.
Cheung, 34, said the production was a rewarding experience that allowed him to learn from veteran actors while uncovering local culinary gems. The cast frequently visited a shop famous for its squid balls, nearly clearing out the entire stock during filming. “I wouldn’t rule out going back,” he joked during the press event.
The drama features Cheung carrying veteran actor Cheung Kam-ching, who plays his father. Cheung credited his regular fitness routine for handling the physical demands. He also revealed that the romantic storyline opposite actress Ng Hoi-hang draws from the director’s own life experiences, though the focus remains on heartfelt family bonds.
When asked whether his fiancée restricts him from filming intimate scenes, Cheung firmly dismissed the notion. “We keep work and personal life separate. She’s in the industry too, so she fully understands an actor’s work. She gives me plenty of freedom,” he explained. He praised fellow actor Kwok Fung for his surprising contrasts—serious on screen but humorous and down-to-earth off set—adding that he learns by observing such seasoned performers.
New Single and Future Plans
Beyond the drama, Cheung has released a new love song, with a music video featuring a surprise 10-second cameo by his fiancée. He emphasized that the track is meant to celebrate all forms of support and companionship—family, friendship, and fans—not simply a gesture to please his partner. “It’s not about self-indulgence,” he said.
However, Cheung indicated that music will take a back seat in the near future. “I plan to focus on acting for now. There are no immediate plans for another single,” he stated, signaling a strategic shift toward his dramatic career.
Cheung’s appearance follows a recent trend of Mirror members branching into diverse projects. Meanwhile, a related report highlighted veteran actor Ha Yu praising fellow star Tse Yin, as the duo—alongside Ha Yu’s son, Wong Yat-sing—team up for their first father-son television drama.
The “Sunset Rainbow” premiere date has not yet been announced, but fans can expect a blend of local flavor, intergenerational relationships, and emotional storytelling. For those interested in deeper context, the original Ming Pao article from July 21, 2026, provides additional coverage.
