It appears that local actress Chen Xiuhuan has added new faces to her group of celebrity hikers, which is now starting to look like a who’s who of veteran TV stars.
In an Instagram post on February 2, the 55-year-old shared that she went on a field trip with actors Hugo Ng, 61, and Hong Guorui, 63. Her post read: “The trio has reunited. Hugo Ng , Hong Guorui and I spent our youth together. “
Xiuhuan’s post (which was in Mandarin) also played in the title of the 1984 Chinese drama Youth in which the three starred. Based on their hashtags, it appears that the trio were part of the same acting class back in the day.
For the uninitiated, Hugo is a former Channel 8 star in the ’80s and became a household name in the 1984 period drama Singapore Broadcasting Corporation (the first iteration of Mediacorp) Pursuit.

He then ventured into show business in Hong Kong in 1987, where he signed with TVB and acted alongside veteran actor Tony Leung Chiu-wai in the 1988 wuxia drama The Two Most Honorable Knights.
It was only in 2016 that Hugo returned to Singapore, where he played a lead actor in the Channel 8 drama The Dream Job; and that decision was motivated in part by his son who had to serve in his National Service.
As for Guorui, the veteran actor was a household name (and face) in the 1980s before advancing his career in Malaysia and China in the early 1990s. Most recently, he was in the 2020 Mediacorp drama Mind Jumpers.
Seeing these veterans reunite, fans and celebrities were filled with nostalgia for their former idols, the shows they performed on, and how good it was to see them together again.
