He attended Nga Pou Kai School, Hong Kong Pui Ching Middle School, and Chan Shu Kui Memorial School. He graduated with a science degree from St. Bonaventure College.
In 1996, he joined New Century Radio as a DJ after participating in a comprehensive DJ recruitment drive, marking his entry into the entertainment industry. In 1997, Chan signed a management contract with TVB, kickstarting his acting career with the television station.
He once signed contracts with three record companies, but his albums were never released. In 1999, he even recorded his first Mandarin album in Taiwan, but due to a change in ownership of the record company, the collaboration abruptly changed. The promotion costs for the album in Taiwan had to be paid out of his pocket. In the end, after six months of recording, the completed album was not released.
In August 2010, Chan did not renew his contract with TVB and subsequently shifted his focus to mainland China, ending his 13-year association with the station.
Beyond his acting career, he holds certifications in canoeing, sign language for the deaf from the Red Cross, childcare, and staff diving instruction.
He has been actively involved in charity work; since high school, he has consistently donated blood, accumulating over 30 donations. In 2009, he was appointed as a Red Cross ambassador by the Hong Kong Red Cross. He has also served as an ambassador for various voluntary organizations and public affairs. Additionally, he serves as an instructor for first aid courses, teaching life-saving skills.
