The 28-year-old was in Penang to film a new season of a variety show. Photos: Edan Lui/Instagram On Sunday (June 8), Edan Lui of the popular Hong Kong boy band Mirror shared a photo of himself wearing a batik shirt on Instagram. The caption read: 'Selamat malam.

Ngai also took to Instagram on Tuesday (June 3) to share a group photo, captioned: 'Four years later, we are finally out together.' However, it was Lui's photo that created a buzz, as Penang is the hometown of his "rumoured girlfriend", Malaysian actress Lin Min Chen. Alongside the usual welcoming comments, many netizens playfully referred to Lui as Malaysia's 'son-in-law' because of his connection to Lin. Coincidentally, Lin was in Penang to celebrate her birthday, which falls on June 1. On Sunday as well, she posted several videos, including one of her joyfully cutting a cake prepared by colleagues. This led netizens to speculate about the timing of Lui's visit and Lin's birthday celebration. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 林明禎 (@minchen333)
