KUALA LUMPUR: Hong Kong Cantopop star Eason Chan Yik Shun mesmerised about 10,000 Malaysian fans during his three-hour concert at the Axiata Arena, here in Bukit Jalil.
In the 8.30pm concert, the singer-actor who is known for his colourful suits, curly hair and well-choreographed performances, sang more than 25 of his Cantonese and Mandarin hit songs non-stop which gave the audience a lot of sing-along opportunities.

"It's so great to sing in Kuala Lumpur once again after five years. Malaysia is home to some of my strongest fans, and I always remind myself not to miss it," said the 48-year-old singer.
