Sammul Chan Kin-fung (born 4 May 1978) is a multi-talented entertainer from Hong Kong, known for his work as an actor, singer, and television host.
Career
Chan launched his career in 1999 as a disc jockey at Metro Broadcast Corporation Limited, using his given name and frequently credited simply as "Sammul". Throughout his early music career, he signed with three different record companies and produced albums, including a full Mandarin release in Taiwan. However, these projects did not achieve commercial success largely due to complications with the record labels.
In the same year, after joining Ivy Entertainment and TVB, he adopted the stage name Chan Kin-fung and began pursuing acting roles in television series. He first attracted attention portraying the driven lawyer Vincent in the 2003 TVB drama Survivor's Law. His popularity further grew with his performance as Donald in the widely acclaimed drama Triumph in the Skies.
