    Renowned Hong Kong composer Joseph Koo died in Vancouver, Canada at the age of 92. Synonymous with the golden age of Cantopop, Koo composed over 1,000 songs and compositions for Hong Kong TV programmes, films and mega stars, including the late Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung. One of Koo’s most well-known songs, the television theme soundtrack Below the Lion Rock, remains the city’s unofficial anthem today.

      tvb dramas used to be popular in southeast asia in the early 90s. it's a pity they didnt work much on it like south koreans do.

    Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind,
    flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything” - Plato
    Rest in Peace Joseph Koo.🕯🎹
