Leung Suet Mei (Koei Leung Suet Mei, born April 30, 1973) is a Hong Kong actress and former contract artist with both Asia Television and TVB. In 1998, she became a member of the girl group "Electro Girls". She has since shifted away from performing to become a businesswoman.[1]

Background

Leung was born in Zhongshan, Guangdong, and grew up in Yau Tsim Mong District, Kowloon. She has two elder sisters. She graduated from the afternoon section of Hong Kong Weaving Mills Association Primary School in 1985,[2] and later attended SKH Liu Wong Fat Secondary School. After some time post-secondary school, she enrolled in TVB's 7th Artiste Training Class in 1994[3] and officially entered the entertainment industry.[4]

Her classmates included Hawick Lau, Ruco Chan, Gabriel Harrison, Joey Meng, and Eddie Cheung. In 1998, TVB formed the girl group Electro Girls with Leung, Toby Leung, Margaret Chung, and YoYo Mung, to compete with ATV’s "Miss Asia Pageant". They appeared on the variety show *Super Electro Girl Battle*. However, her career remained modest. She often played troubled young women on TV and rarely had leading roles. She once served as the “Cruelty Ambassador” on the variety show *Minutes to Fame*.

Business Career

In the 2000s, Leung ventured into business. From 2000 to 2001, she co-opened a Japanese restaurant called “Chiyo” in Wan Chai with her godmother,[5] but it closed in 2001.[6] She then opened a fashion boutique in Guangzhou,[7] and became a shareholder of “Waton Star Beauty Spa” in 2008. That same year, she recorded a song for her management company Starj & Snazz (now Audie Entertainment).

After her TVB contract ended in 2009, she joined ATV as a host until 2011. In 2013, she joined Hong Kong Television Network and also invested in the restaurant "Stars' Ice Room".[8][9] She also writes a travel blog.[10]
