Recently, Ekin Cheng (鄭伊健) is invited to film a commercial related to retirement by a financial company and it turns out that he has made plans for retirement long ago: "In the past, I keep thinking of finishing work early in order to enjoy some personal time but I learn how to make use of my time now such as spending more time with my family."

Asking if he is planning for retirement as he has less workpieces in recent years, Ekin replies nope as his workload has been arranged in 2018 and plans to release his new album other than promoting new film, Golden Job (黃金兄弟) directed by Chin Ka Lok (錢嘉樂).

Four days ago, Ekin Cheng (鄭伊健) attended the sharing event and when mentioned about his old love, Gigi Leung's (梁詠琪) pregnancy, Ekin said: "I know....I will congratulate them if there is an opportunity. I often feel that have to send congratulations about happy stuff. As for me, I will let nature take course."

The Hong Kong actor, who previously rejected the idea of having kids, has finally agreed to try for a baby. To the delight of his wife Yoyo Mung, Ekin Cheng has finally agreed to try for a baby after previous mentions in several interviews that he is against the idea of having kids.

Yoyo, who had echoed Ekin’s words by saying that “giving birth is a nightmare” and “being pregnant for 10 months is like being jailed”, is reportedly thrilled about her husband’s change of mind.

Sources revealed that the actress has always wanted to a mother and often rants to her good friends about her worries on being an older mum. The actress is also concerned that she would have to give up the thought of having a baby in one or two years’ time as she is already 39.

An insider said, “It wasn’t easy to convince Ekin, who never intended to get married, to settle down. It’d be even more difficult to persuade him to have children.”

“His temperament is like a kid’s. The more you ask him to do something, the more he would refuse to do it.”

Aware of her husband’s personality, Yoyo has never mentioned her baby-making plans to him since they tied the knot in January. Instead, she gathered their friends, including the person who successfully persuaded him to get married, for a meet-up where they ‘tested’ his reaction.

Yoyo’s friend suggested that it would be fun to have children to play games and sports with and that it would be good to have someone to look after the couple when they are older. To their surprise, Ekin answered saying that “it is okay to try” when the actress asked him for his opinion on having kids.

It is believed that she has been making regular visits to the Chinese physician to strengthen her body in preparation for pregnancy.

The newly wedded couple Ekin Cheng and Yoyo Mung secretly got married on January 28th at an ancient palace in Tokyo. After their three day honeymoon, the couple returned to HK at 8pm last night. They appeared at the airport ten fingers interlocked and were greeted by 500 reporters. Mrs. Cheng had a sweet smile on her face the entire time and left the majority of the question answering to her husband. The two stood still for pictures and when asked about how they're feeling after marriage? Ekin joked: "We already expressed it just now." Yoyo added with a wide smile: "Happy!"

When Ekin learned he 'offended' his friends by having such a low-profile marriage, he apologized several times. Ekin said: "I have to apologize to many of my friends because I wasn't able to invite some of them." He made a special apologize to Wilson Chin: "Because I knew he has to wrap up with the Lunar New Year film and is very busy, so I didn't dare to tell him."

Asked if they're planning to make up for it and hold a wedding party in HK? Ekin joked: "Huh? Another one?! You're kidding me!" Ekin explained the reason why he chose to hold the wedding in Tokyo was because his first vacation with Yoyo was to Tokyo. He plans on seeking for another special place in HK to make up the marriage formalities. It was exposed Ekin cried a lot during the wedding? He laughed: "It's just to have something to write about. I smile when I'm happy. The most emotional moment in the course of events now.

Yoyo laughed and said she's not used to being called Mrs. Cheng. She joked: "Isn't it the first year we don't have to give out red envelopes?" Reporters teased she actually have to give a pair of red envelopes. Yoyo said: "Aiya, married at the wrong time!" Ekin learned from reporters that his ex-girlfriends all congratulated him, he said: "I know, thanks." His good buddy Jordan Chan announced he's going to be a father soon, asked if he plans to be a father along with him? Ekin said: "Let's see if he can handle it first!"

Ekin Cheng announced on Weibo, he married girlfriend Yoyo Mung in Japan! Ekin's manager (Lam San San) confirmed the good news, she said the wedding was a complete secret, but it was a very touching. Lan San San said: "I got a surprised invitation to the wedding, we (the guests) just found out probably about a month ago. Ekin asked if we had time for dinner, then later he asked again if we had time for dinner in Tokyo? Based on Ekin's personality, we knew there was something big happening, but we didn't dare to ask him. We just booked the flight and hotel separately, so we all didn't really know where we were suppose to go. It wasn't until we got there, Ekin told us there will be bus to take us to an ancient looking restaurant. Inside, there were really pretty flowers, it was a really small scaled and simple wedding party. We had a French meal and then the newly weds made a speech of their feelings. Yoyo started crying as soon as sje started speaking. As for Ekin, you wouldn't believe it, he cried even harder and couldn't stop either. They just thanked us for coming on short notice, but we didn't know what gift to get the couple since it was so sudden. Whatever comes toind, then we'll buy and give it to them immediately! The most touching was when Ekin called Yoyo 'Ah So' (wife), then Ah Lo (Jerry Lamb) and Chan Kwong Wing called her 'Ah So'. That ended the beautiful evening." Also, Lam San San reveals: "It had been snowing in Tokyo, but once their wedding started, the snow stopped. Really have to thank God. I respect the couple's wish of keeping their private lives low-profile, after all it was a very touching wedding. The majority of the guests were very moved and teared up." In the photo Lam San San shared with the media, Ekin had a tuxedo on and Yoyo had a low cut wedding dress.

On Weibo, Ekin posted a photo of two teddy bears with the letters "E" and "Y" on the bears' feet. The EY represents Ekin and Yoyo. After Ekin's Weibo announcement, his wife Yoyo replied sweetly! Good friends from the industry such as ShuQi, Bonnie Chiu, Christine Ng and many more congratulated the newly wedded! In other news, all along the media reported Yoyo was born in 1975, but according to the Japanese marriage certificate, she is actually born in 1973. Ekin will resume work on Saturday and attend a show in Macau with his "Young&Dangerous" brother Jordan Chan.

** RESPONSES FROM FRIENDS + EKIN'S EX-GIRLFRIENDS **

Chin Ka Lok: He was so secretive on Weibo, Ekin had always kept his private life low-profiled. There has been so many good news lately, Jordan [and Timmy Hung] became fathers, and now Ekin's married. (How would you rate this 'Ah So' Yoyo Mung?) To able to tie up 'Chan Ho Nam', she gets 100%! We'll catch up when they get back!

Chris Lai: I already knew about this, but I couldn't go because of filming. I know they wanted to plan a really memorable wedding. I'm very good friends with them, so I'm sad I wasn't able to go. Wait until they come back, I'll pick out a really good wedding gift for them.

Leo Ku: My heart is so moved! Congrats to my good brother and 'Ah So'. This day has finally come! They remind of one of Ekin's songs Only Love You For Life. I listened to this song today and there's so much feel.

Michael Tse: I'm happy for them. Tell them to hurry up and come back to HK, so we can have a wedding banquet here! (Rush them to have a baby?) Let them think about it themselves, I'm not their parents. Jordan is going to be a father soon, now he's married. It's truly double happiness!

Bobby Au-Yeung: Wah! Finally got married, that's great, love blossomed! I know them both very well, they love to play games and do physical activity. Congrats to them!

Jordan Chan: I just came back from Shanghai and found out about the good news. He already congratulated me for becoming father, I need to congratulate him for getting married as well.

William So: Wish the couple together forever, I waited for this day for too long. My neck grew long from waiting so long. Ekin is basically a big kid, can Yoyo withstand him? If they have a baby too, it will be difficult to handle two kids! Children are not as important, the most important is their happiness.

Miriam Yeung: Congrats to Ekin. He's always going to those pilgrimage holy places. I hope they get a baby soon, should have one while they're still young. The earlier, the happier.

Ella Koon: Congrats to them, wish them together forever. I remember my first time collaborating with Yoyo. On the first day, first scene, I had to scream at her, calling her "Bat Por"!

Joey Yung: He really loves Japan. (Save on the money gift?) Oh yeah, just in time for Lunar New Year, I can get his red envelopes. Every year, we all go to friends house to send new year greetings. I'm happy for Ekin.

Ekin's ex-girlfriends - Gigi Leung, Maggie Siu and Maria Lai were happy for Ekin and congratulated him.

Gigi Leung: "Congrats from the bottom of my heart. When I heard the good news, I was really happy for them. I dedicate my song Exchange Treaties (換約) to them because this song is about marriage. I wish them together forever!"

Maggie Siu: Congratulations. I am not surprised they suddenly got married nor am I surprised they got married in Japan because Ekin had always loved Japan and this fits his low-profile personality."

Maria Lai: He's so secretive. I think just friends within the industry knew about it. He always used to say he didn't want to get married or have children, but now he's already married. I see he changed his mind and would want children! Every individual should do this at some point in their lives in order to maintain the relationship between two people.

Last night at Ekin Cheng's final show of his Hong Kong Coliseum concert, Ekin was pressured to announce his plans to marry girlfriend Yoyo Mung next year. Ekin's parents, girlfriend Yoyo and good friends Angela Tong, 'Young and Dangerous' brothers Jordon Chan, Chin Kar Lok, Jerry Lamb, Jason Chu and director Lau Wai Keung all supported him at the concert.

On stage, Ekin's brothers chatted happily and then switched the topic onto Ekin's love life. Chin Kar Lok said: "You promised me before that you will have something to say tonight!" The crowd immediately went wild after Kar Lok made that comment. Ekin answered: "Yes, say that you're getting married!" Jordon interrupted him: "Let me say it, but you can't be upset, please welcome Yoyo Mung!" Ekin initially tried to wave his hands telling them to stop, but Jordon kept going and invited Yoyo up on stage. Ekin immediately stopped him: "Ok! I will say it myself. My girlfriend and I are very personal, I don't like to take our relationship out and let people see it! I admit I'm a very romantic person, otherwise how can I sing love songs to everyone?" However, the audience were displeased by Ekin's answer and kept booing him.

Then the special guest Leo Ku suddenly comes on stage, he said: "Today the producer called me and said why don't I give Ekin a surprise. He said you're going to make an announcement tonight that I'm invited to your banquet." Ekin smiled embarrassed, but Leo continued: "I said invite me to his celebration banquet! How about this, I won't say the word 'marry', I'll say 'dodo' instead. Everyone repeat after me, Ekin and Yoyo dodo!" Ekin laughed: "If I dodo, then I will definitely invite you!"

Later, Ekin accepted an interview and when speaking of all the pressure his brothers gave him and he still wasn't willing to announce the marriage news? He said: "After all, I'm not married yet. If I do get married, I will definitely let you all know." After reporters asked Ekin again and again when he's going to admit it, he finally said: "It will be next year, but I won't say when and where. This is very personal to me." As for Yoyo, she accepted an interview over the phone and had difficulty covering her joy, when asked if Ekin ever officially proposed to her? She said: "He did half of it, the other half he'll do it when he has free time." She stressed Ekin is focused on his work and hopes the public can put the attention on her boyfriend's career instead.

Hong Kong actor Ekin Cheng who had earlier promised to wed his long-time girlfriend, Hong Kong actress Yoyo Mung, was rumoured to have called off their wedding plans after the actress was spotted breaking down from the stress.

Ekin, 44, who had always iterated that he does not believe in marriage, expressed a change in his stand over the last two years. At Jordon Chen's wedding last year, he let on that he "has plans to get married". Since then he had also claimed that he "will get married before the end of the world."

However, an insider claimed that Ekin had not made his move to confirm his wedding plans with girlfriend of seven years, Yoyo. The actor apparently had not proposed to Yoyo or made any plans for the couple. Ekin's parents, who are unaware of the situation, would regularly ask the actress about the wedding preparations and date which subjected her to a great amount of stress.

Another tip-off also claimed that Ekin had planned his holiday for the next six months and the wedding would not be anytime soon. The actor was said to be irritated as he had been asked about the wedding repeatedly over the past months.

Yoyo, who recently filmed A Great Way to Care 2 with her good friend, Hong Kong actor Alex Fong, is believed to have compared Alex to her boyfriend. While Alex had put his partying days behind and is now a devoted father to his three-year-old, Ekin had yet to be willing to settle down.

Yoyo and Alex were seen together during dinnertime on the set of the drama last Wednesday. Yoyo looked worried and was not eating well. Alex helped fill her plate with food and while they were talking, Yoyo was seen wiping away her tears.

Responding to the incident at an event on Monday, Yoyo emphasised that she will not be tying the knot within the year and had not shed tears because of that. She explained that "I teared because my eyes were tired after focusing on a game."

Charlene Choi (Ah Sa), Ekin Cheng and Joyce Cheng attended the promotional event for their new film My Sassy Hubby (My Wife Is 18 sequel). Recently it has been rumored again that Ekin is planning to marry girlfriend Yoyo Mung in January 2013. However, Ekin denied and said the date is wrong. He disclosed he'll be married before Dooms Day, apparently implying that he plans for marriage within this year.

Ex-girlfriend Gigi Leung publicly congratulated him on the rumored marriage, and expressed she hopes to see him married soon. Ekin laughed: "I hope so too, but I'm not getting married. Wait until I actually do get marry, then congratulate me again." He also said he hasn't been pressured by the rumor, "Frequently mentioning it will spoil plans. I have plans? No, I just don't want people to think I'm trying to get publicity." Asked when he's going to get married then? Ekin said: "Before Dooms Day, I'll let everyone know. (Dooms Day is on December 21st, are you implying you'll be married within this year?) Dec 21st is not Dooms Day." Asked if he wants his marriage to be in HK or overseas? He said its a different world now. Ekin's manager expressed Ekin won't have time for marriage until next year because there are a lot of schedule conflicts.

Ah Sa said she just went through a divorce and won't be getting married again that fast. She also expressed the last time she collaborated with Ekin in My Wife is 18 was 10 years ago and in between they rarely kept in touch, but collaborating again this time really does feel like they have lived together for 10 years.

A few days ago, Ekin Cheng and Yoyo Mung were spotted dating on their trip to Europe. The couple was dressed in a couple's outfit riding bikes around Paris together. Wondering around Paris hand in hand, the couple visited the red-bricked old bridge Pont Neuf and took pictures in front of it. Netizens were on Weibo spreading the news of their entire journey, and uploaded photos of them. The Netizen also commented: "They were so loving to death, and they looked pretty good in person."

It was understood that this trip was initially suppose to be in Japan because Ekin was going to shoot a Chocolate Ad there, but because of the earthquake, the advertisers had to remain in HK to shoot the Ad. Yoyo and Ekin quickly invited Calvin Choi and his wife to travel over to Paris together. It was rumored that Yoyo is desparate to marry and for Ekin she lost her bad habits. Ekin's attitude also started to loosen up, so the couple decided to talk about marriage while they're on this trip. Reporters called Eki to asked if the good time is near? He smiled: "You all think too much, it's normal to go traveling. (Netizens are taking pictures and posting on Weibo?) We often get photographed, doesn't matter, most important is that we are happy!"

Ekin's manager was asked if Ekin took off to go get married? She said: "After so many years working in this industry, if he wanted to secretly get married, there is no need to take special time off to do so! (Yoyo changed her bad habits to be ready to marry Ekin?) She was already like that when we met. They are very sweet anyway, married or not is the same!"

The first of 3 shows Ekin Cheng Beautiful Day 2011 Concert was held in Hong Kong Coliseum last night. Ekin changed into 5 different outfits throughout the night.

Ekin performed very openly at the concert, he did a hot dance with Chinese-Brazilian blood model Kate and sang ex-girlfriend Gigi Leung's Today right in front of his girlfriend Yoyo Mung and his parents. Ekin also performed Joey Yung's My Pride, but after he performed the songs, he quickly added an annotation. He ran over to the piano and said to the music producer Chan Kwong Wing: "These two songs are chosen by Chan Kwong Wing, he produced many songs for different singers. It's a collective memory, bringing everyone back to the high school days."

Ekin invited Pakho Chau, Fiona Fung and Kay Tse as his guest performers last night. When Pakho came out, a few things malfunctioned on him, first his guitar string snapped off and then the microphone didn't produce any sound.

Yesterday Ekin Cheng accepted Eileen Cha's radio interview and announced that 1 more show will be added to his 3 show HK Coliseum concert held on March 3rd, 5th and 6th: "Inside, I am secretly happy because everyone is working hard on the concert preparations. I do hope more people will come watch!" As for ex-lover Gigi Leung holding her concert first late February, Ekin said: "Not stealing, it's just a coincidence that the schedule is like that! It's been a long time since she had a concert, she should have one, there is also David Lui on the same time period!"

Also, for TVB's special program on Ekin, he invited several of his old friends of many years including Leo Ku, director Lau Wai Keung, Chin Ka Lok, and Charlene Choi. Turns out that one of Ekin's dreams is cooking, he asked Ah Sa to come make chocolate with him, Ah Sa scolded with laughs that it's so bad shooting with Ekin because he's always calling her 'a squished pineapple bun'.

 Gigi Leung can be proud of herself with both her career and love life. Yesterday Gigi's assistant announced on Weibo that after 7 years of absence from Hong Kong Coliseum, Gigi will finally be holding a concert on February 27-28th. Coincidentally, ex-lover Ekin Cheng will be holding his concert the following month, in March.

Congratulates ex-lover

It was understood that initially Gigi was going to hold a collaborative concert with Maria Cordero, Elisa Chan (Miss Chan Chan) and Frances Yip. However, because the three of them did not have room in their schedules, Gigi successfully took it on herself and stole Ekin's first taste of the soup. [Oriental Daily] contacted Gigi to confirm, she said: "Don't say stole taste of soup, I was very surprised myself that we were able to get a slot on the HK Coliseum schedule. Earlier, the Christmas Eve concert Beijing G Night had very good response, so it helped me get a shot of confidence. (Ekin's show starts after yours?) I know he's having a concert too, hope we'll both have good results, good show together!"

Gigi frankly said that last time at her concert she lost her voice and affected her performance, this time she'll definitely behave and keep her good voice. In the cold weather, she'll cut down on going out. Asked if her boyfriend Matthew will continue to support her for this concert? Gigi laughed sweetly: "Every friend will go support, I hope everyone will have a good time watching!"

Back then after Gigi and Ekin broke up, Ekin started a new relationship with Yoyo Mung. As Gigi has always had both love and career, she had two relationships after the break up. Later reporters exposed her new relationship with American diplomat Matthew.

Also, lately Gigi has been voted for "Weibo's Most Popular Female Singer" by Netizens. The other two include Denise Ho and Charlene Choi. As for "Weibo's Most Popular Male Singer", the top three are Pakho Chau, Bosco Wong and Khalil Fong.

Yesterday Ekin Cheng held a press conference for his concert in March 2011. The decorations and whole set up at the press conference was just like a wedding, Ekin's manager (Lam San San) laughed: "Adult's beauty, let him feel it and think clearly about it." But Ekin actually felt that the press conference was youthful, he was asked again when he's getting married? He said: "Don't have to be that fast. (Your friends are all married?) I am not fast or slow, in the middle." During the interview, Ekin was teased by reporters that he was being mysterious enough. Asked if its only his girlfriend Yoyo Mung who understands what he says? Ekin said: "She doesn't understand either. Only if don't understand will go find out, and that's where the joy comes. If she understands so early, then there's no meaning."

As his contract with Sony Music has ended, stepping away from the Big 4 record company and has his freedom again, he rushes to TVB for promotions. Ekin said: "I hope they can solve the issue soon and collaborate again. Soon I will have new songs, thinking about the style now, should I put it up on the internet or release an album on my own expenses."

Yesterday Ekin Cheng and Niki Chow were guests at the Christmas opening ceremony held at The Lanmark plaza in Central as the "Wishing Foundation" ambassadors. At the event, Ekin fans held up banners to support him and asked that Ekin add 2 more shows to his concert next year. Suffering from the flu, Ekin reveals that giving credit card sales priority, tickets were nearly sold out in just two days, he felt very happy to see the results. As for adding more shows next year, he will leave it to his company East Asia to decide.

As Eric Suen said earlier that when he was going through customs in Shanghai, the customs searched his body and had physical contact. Ekin also experienced the same thing, but it was at the Beijing airport. He said that the metal detectors didn't make any sounds, but he was still called in to search. Ekin also saw the customs wink at each other, so wasn't sure what the purpose was. Reporters teased that perhaps Ekin has an attractive rock chest. He expressed that he's currently taking Chinese medication daily, so already turned into Chinese medicine chest.

The night before, Ekin Cheng, Kay Tse and Justin Lo held the Metro's Love and The City Concert in Asia World Expo. Once Ekin appeared, the entire venue was got very enthusiastic and high. In the mist of the high atmosphere, Ekin acted like the 'dance king' and started dancing as he sang, when he sang fast song Speed, he shouted out to the audience: "Let's shake together!" and made a 360 degree turn. Later he shouted so much he started losing his voice and "lost his voice with speed" after performing Speed. He exposed: "Actually I am seriously ill." Later, he appears on stage again with Kay and other singers for group singing. As he sang, the softer his voice got, looks like he's about to lose his voice.

First time singing on stage with her idol Ekin, Kay frankly said that during rehearsal she was so nervous that she didn't dare to look straight at Ekin. Asked if her husband Louis Cheung was jealous? She laughed: "He loves Ekin too, he even told me to call him 'big brother' for him." She later danced and sang on stage with Justin Lo.

Justin had argument with girlfriend, confesses love during concert
Also, Justin expressed his love to his girlfriend during the concert, performing his new song Saranghae (In Korean it means: I Love You). He also exposed that he had an argument with his girlfriend earlier: "It's difficult to argue during a long-distance phone call, she hung on me, you can't even refute back if you wanted to. Called her more than 10 times and it still went to voicemail." He said that he'll be sending this video clip for his girlfriend to watch later.

Afterwards, Ekin expressed that he got a serious flu, and had held back his power during rehearsal, he joked: "I already expected my voice would die on me." Speaking of Ekin's Hong Kong Coliseum concert that happened earlier this year in March, and had to 'shake' against Faye Wong who was holding her concert at Asia-World Expo that same month? He said: "Not that coincidental right, even so, it doesn't matter. That time, we just celebrated new years, everyone used their red envelope money to buy tickets to the concerts."

35 year old Yoyo Mung, not only celebrated her boyfriend Ekin Cheng of 4 year's birthday, but it was learned that she has no intentions of marrying Ekin. This changes Ekin's plans of marrying his girlfriend next year. The day before, Yoyo and Ekin were spotted in South Bay playing with scooters and showing off their love. Staying by his girlfriend the entire time, whenever his girlfriend was about to fall over, he'll rush over to help her and their ten fingers were interlocked.

Since September 2006 when Yoyo Mung and Ekin Cheng were spotted playing badminton together, the "Mung-Mean("face") Love" started. Ever since, Ekin had always maintained their relationship low-key. Yesterday, Ekin accepted "Mingpao Weekly" interview and happily opened his heart to talk about the topic of relationships, even about marriage. He says: "Before I felt that I won't get married, but now I really want to. Thinking should I really do it?"

Ekin admits that he sees Yoyo as his marriage partner: "Everyone knows that I have dated several times.... each time I would think of my partner as someone who I didn't choose wrongly." Asked if Ekin has plans for marriage? He said: "Some things we have to take it slowly! (Like what?) Many things, sometimes personal, sometimes work related. I want to first focus on those things."

About the marriage age, he does not have a specific age, but does know that he won't be having kids. "I have never thought about having kids! Not that I have financial difficulties, but I don't want my child to deal with the atmosphere and the stress in society. (Does your girlfriend think the same?) I believe that she has the same idea as me."

Asked about his ideal marriage, would it be like good friend Charlene Choi's secret marriage and no announcement? He said: "I feel that marriage is something really personal. Ah Sa's way of handling it is not an issue, marriage is her business. You can criticize her in terms of work, but you have no right to criticize if she's married or not. For me, I don't mind, I could announce it."

Day before yesterday, Ekin Cheng revealed that his request to appear on TVB to promote his new movie [Once A Gangster] was denied because he is one of the Big Four record companies’ singers. TVB’s Director of External Affairs Tsang Sing Ming yesterday clarified that TVB did not ban Ekin and in fact, is inviting him to appear on an interview show along with Jordan Chan. He indicated that even though Ekin is one of Sony’s contracted singers, he also has an actor’s contract with TVB and graduated from TVB’s acting class years ago, so he is definitely a “TVB person”. Tsang Sing Ming indicates that the incident was purely a misunderstanding and will not damage Ekin’s relationship with TVB. Tomorrow, Ekin and Jordan will be interviewed by TVB’s show [范後感]. Tsang also indicated that as long as Ekin appears on TVB as an “actor”, then it’s fine.

Yesterday Ekin Cheng attended the promotional event for the movie [Once A Gangster] with Candice Yu. At the event, Ekin exposed that TVB contracted artists were treated unfairly. He said: "TVB and I had a contract, a TVB contracted artist. However, because of my awkward status and that I'm also contracted under the Big 4 record companies, for the movie promotions, we contacted TVB to set up promotions with them, but they replied and said 'it's best not to'."

Ekin exposed his jealousy of Jordan Chan not having any contracts and are greatly welcomed by any television station. Once worked with Vicki Zhao in [My Dream Girl], Ekin saw the reports of Vicki becoming a mother and he's happy for her.

Candice Yu plays Ekin's mother in the new movie, she often tells Ekin to dress in a way to make him look younger, so she doesn't have to look so much older.

Ekin Cheng, Alex Law, the producer and Mabel Cheung congratulated Chan Kwong Wing, Lo Kwok Sing and Tsang King Lai who have won "Best music" "Best Visual Effects" and "Best Sound" for "The Kingdom of Soloman-Part one：A Sedition in Jerusalem" in the 28th Iranian Film Festival award ceremony.

Ekin revealed that he is indebted to Chan Kwong Wing, who had helped him a lot in his singing career. He was very happy for Chan to have won the award. He mentioned that he would like to become a director in a few years' time. A magazine recently reported that Ekin is a very loyal person who never stayed away from his friend Chin Kwok Wai when he was arrested by ICAC. Ekin said "When a friend is in need, I will help. I hope he gets himself sorted. This friend of mine is a very talented person. I believe he could do better. Life is a challenge, being tested ll the time. When there is a risk, there is a hope." Ekin was asked if he heard Chin Kwok Wai said he was being alienated by his friends? Ekin said "No, his cell phone is overloaded. He has many friends."
