#SHOWBIZ: Yoyo Mung returns to showbiz after family tragedies, lives simple life

Hong Kong's former TVB star Yoyo Mung, 53, has made a return to the entertainment industry after a six-year hiatus. Yoyo recently appeared on the YouTube talk show Kam Shing Mode, where she discussed her decision to step away from showbiz and the impact of personal tragedies on her life choices. In 2013, Yoyo married singer-actor Ekin Cheng, but after the loss of her father in 2022 and her sister in the previous year, she decided to focus on living a simpler, stress-free life.

Yoyo now leads a quiet and frugal lifestyle, only purchasing basic clothing items like T-shirts and sportswear. Her husband Ekin, 59, jokingly remarked that she dresses like a small-town auntie. Despite her difficult upbringing with divorced parents and the tragic loss of her younger sister to suicide, Yoyo found solace in her husband's words: "When you were a baby, you didn't know anything about the world, but you still managed to grow up."

This quote inspired her to confront her fears and embrace new challenges, even as she learned to let go of what she cannot change and simply live well.
