[edit] Biography
[edit] Early life and career
Steven Cheung was born in Holland and raised in Hong Kong to a Dutch mother and a Chinese father[citation needed]. He has two elder sisters and a younger brother. One of his elder sisters, Jan Cheung, is a member of the Hong Kong Cantopop music duo Krusty. His younger brother, Ryan Cheung, is a freelance model.
As a young boy, Steven has never been studious. He did not do well in school and always had to repeat the same grade level. He began modelling when he was a teenager and auditioned for the Emperor Entertainment Group before finishing high school. He was signed, but the company required him to finish high school, which was against his will. Steven began his career in the entertainment industry as one-half of the duo Boy'Z with Kenny Kwan in 2002-2005. When Kwan left Boy'Z in January 2005, Cheung continued the duo with Dennis Mak. In June of 2006, when William Chan, joined Boy'Z and the group was renamed as Sun Boy'z. Steven then became the frontman of the band.
In 2003, he started filming movies with Kenny and has appeared in many movies such as The Death Curse, Bug Me Not!, The Haunted School and A Chinese Tall Story. In many movies he has appeared alongside his partner Kenny and other members of the company EEG, mostly Twins. But when Kenny went solo in 2005, Steven pursued his acting career individually. He and Kenny have also starred a movie named 6:00 AM, with them as the main leads; In 2005, he made a horror movie named The Haunted School, with his new partner Dennis Mak, although it was not released until early 2007; In 2008, he starred a movie called Yes, I Can See Dead People and played the main lead himself.
[edit] Vocals
Steven is a tenor with a smooth voice. His voice used to be higher at age 18-20 during Boy'z early years with Kenny Kwan. On their final album Boy'z Can Cook, his voice is noticeably lower than their earlier EPs and album.
