Hong Kong Studies Presents
“The Hong Kong I Love” Lin Xi
Lin Xi, Hong Kong’s leading lyricist, is almost synonymous with Cantopop lyrics. He graduated from the Faculty of Arts at the University of Hong Kong in 1984. Before becoming a full-time writer, he was a teaching assistant, newspaper editor, and creative director/manager/consultant for various media. A prolific lyricist, he has won many awards including Radio Television Hong Kong’s “Golden Needle Award” in 2008 and the Composers and Authors Society of Hong Kong “CASH Hall of Fame Award” in 2012. Lin Xi will evoke Hong Kong through its culture, lyrics and urban characteristics.
Launched in 2012, Hong Kong Studies is the first interdisciplinary programme in the world to take this fascinating city as its subject and explores Hong Kong through its culture, history and society.
