Music In 2004, during the summer vacation after his first year of university in
Toronto, Kwan went on a trip to
Taiwan; after a night of
karaoke with his father's ex-coworkers, Kwan was offered an audition, and was signed to Universal Music's Taiwan division. A year later, he moved to Hong Kong. Tam's relationship with Kwan continued to be a boost to Kwan's career; in August 2006, the pair recorded a music video of the duet "
Big Cry Baby (大喊包)", which secured Kwan's popularity in the Hong Kong music industry. However, Tam has not been reticent in pointing out Kwan's flaws and errors publicly; in an interview with the
Sing Tao Daily in September 2006, he criticised Kwan's public speaking abilities and suggested he concentrate harder on singing during performances; Kwan reportedly felt awkward and hurt by Tam's words. Regardless, Kwan still credits a great deal of his success to Tam claiming that he would not be where he is today without his help and guidance. Among the songs on the album was
Big Cry Baby, which only 5 days after the album's release was ranked as China's 4th most popular duet by
China Central Television.
Community service Kwan and Jill Vidal participated in a number of community service activities aimed at preventing drug use and shoplifting. They were the spokespersons for the "Say no to drugs" campaign (向毒品說不), a program aimed to prevent the younger generation to avoid drugs. In 2006 and 2008, Kwan and
Jill Vidal took part in a "Anti-drug promotion" (禁毒滅罪耀北區) in Hong Kong's
north district. Kwan's godfather,
Alan Tam, expressed disappointment with Kwan. On 28 March, he was released and he returned to Hong Kong On 2 April, he delivered a prepared speech where he expressed his "regret and remorse". Kwan would not return to the entertainment industry until more than a year later when he released his next album, Here I Am on 22 September 2010. ==Discography==
