#SHOWBIZ: Gary Chaw helped son woo Korean girlfriend
KUALA LUMPUR: Priceless dating advice often comes from one’s father, especially when he happens to be singer Gary Chaw.
Gary Chaw, a 47-year-old Malaysian singer, recently found himself playing the role of a matchmaker for his 18-year-old son, Joe, in a whirlwind romance with a South Korean girlfriend. During a recent media event, 8days reported on the story, with Gary admitting that his son's romance with the girl may not have moved as swiftly without his intervention.
While shopping with his son, Gary happened upon the girl and learned, through Joe's friend, that she was the one Joe had his eye on. Taking matters into his own hands, Gary approached the girl and asked directly, "Do you know my son likes you?" Though Joe was visibly embarrassed by his father's frank approach, the bold move proved successful.
Just a month after the encounter, the couple officially began dating. When asked about Joe's gratitude for his father's help, Gary responded with a smile, "Yes, of course. He's a great son."
