Hong Kong superstar Aaron Kwok is following in the footsteps of "Father of Cantopop" Sam Hui by holding a free online concert on Saturday (May 9).
Kwok, 54, announced on social media on May 2 that the concert, which will begin at 5pm, will be livestreamed on Facebook and YouTube.
Like Hui, Kwok will also hold the concert in Harbour City mall in Tsim Sha Tsui, and he will be raising funds for dancers who have been hard hit by the coronavirus pandemic.
Hui, 71, had donated HK$250,000 (S$45,500) to help the staff of a music event company, which has worked with him for many years. He had stressed that his concert was not a fund-raiser.
The veteran's online concert is considered a big success as it attracted more than 2.5 million viewers.
Kwok, who began his entertainment career as a backup dancer, will donate a sum of money to help the dancers. Their earnings have dried up as concerts and other entertainment events in the territory have been cancelled or postponed due to the pandemic.
Beside singing, he will also perform together with 100 dancers on Saturday.
