#SHOWBIZ: Grasshopper's Remus Choy returns to stage after brain surgery
HONG KONG: Hong Kong singer Remus Choy of pop group Grasshopper made his much-anticipated return to the stage on July 27, marking his first performance since undergoing brain surgery in October 2024.
According to The Straits Times of Singapore, Grasshopper appeared as guest performers at Hong Kong singer Kelly Chen's concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum last Sunday.
The Cantopop trio comprises Remus, 58, his brother Calvin Choy, 60, and Edmond So, 59.
All dressed in white, the members of Grasshopper and Kelly Chen performed the upbeat tracks 'Beat The Heat Wou Bom Ba' (1993) and 'Open The Sky' (1995). Chen's concert was the grand finale of her 10-show 'Season 2 Live In Hong Kong 2025' concert series.
On stage, Remus, 52, shared that Kelly Chen was the first person to message him after he revealed in October 2024 on social media that he had undergone an operation to remove a brain tumour.
"Kelly said she was very worried about me and that the large scar on my head broke her heart," Remus said.
"She hoped I would recover soon and cheered me on, even complimenting me on how good I looked with a bald head."
Remus has been openly documenting his recovery journey on social media since his surgery, sharing videos of himself working out in the gym in recent months.
Most recently, on July 22, he posted a photo of himself in the recording studio.
