The best is yet to come, just keep asking yourself WHY NOT. | Henry Lau | TEDxTheBund

Even after successfully passing the global audition held by the largest Korean entertainment company and training with one of the most successful K-pop groups of its time, Henry’s debut to stardom was far from smooth. Henry faced strong opposition which even turned into protests and boycotts led by fans of the company. How to deal with the situation? How was Henry able to start from such a low point to being one of the most recognized household names in Asia?
Henry is a multi-talented star. He’s a singer, actor, producer, dancer, a classical violinist, pianist, and is even recognized as a Saatchi gallery artist. Henry continues to face many challenges on his path of creativity. What is Henry’s attitude towards those challenges? How to stay on top of creative pursuits? Henry Lau is an award winning singer, producer and actor. Trained as a classical violinist, Henry is best known for combining virtuosic classical elements with pop music in his performances. Henry started his career as a member of the Kpop group Super Junior M, and has since transitioned into a successful solo artist. In 2019, Henry starred in Hollywood movie “A Dog’s Journey” by Amblin Entertainment (Steven Spielberg’s studio) and Chinese blockbuster “Double World”. Most recently in late 2021, Henry’s set of pendulum paintings were showcased at Saatchi Gallery in London.
Henry is an alumnus of Berkelee College of Music. During first term, Henry was offered a full scholarship but later withdrew to continue his award winning music career. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

我爱刘宪华，如此正能量，才华横溢，且善良、温暖的男人，怎能不爱？

[@zhenhuajin1936]

henry刘宪华人生讲座很感人，大包眼福，是很精彩的舞台剧。为了追求和实现梦想，在异国他乡克服种种困难，提升自己的水平，成为了无所不能的真正的艺术家，他的经历是无数追求和实现梦想者的活教材👍❤️🌹🌹🌹💞💞💞

[@Liuannaieni]

Henry是我見過最勇敢正向的人,將出道的傷害直面轉化為積極向上的力量! 鼓舞了無數的人~ 那些惡意無理偏頗的黑評一樣不會打倒Henry! 因為你是最棒的!

[@siotonglok996]

Henry 👍👍

[@rebeccalee7554]

Henry这个人真的越了解就会越爱他，待人谦和真诚，有着高于常人的艺术天赋却不断精进业务能力，不断提高完善自己。做任何事情都能做到极致，不论是音乐、电影、各种形式的艺术作品，抑或是综艺节目，他都能做到每个领域的top，但就是这样他还是这么谦逊低调，不炒作不营销，这样纯粹的idol兼artist在如今这个时代真的很难能可贵，好好珍惜他吧

[@trippleskhj1104]

There's really nothing this guy can't do, seriously. Now he even does ted talk and he is definitely one of the best speakers out there. Really surprised that he can be such a good motivational and inspirational speaker. It was really a heart-rending moment when he said he was eager to show his debut performance to his parents but he couldn't because fans were chanting Henry out. I didn't know about this incident before. I'm not an SJ fan but he is the only member/ex-member that i truly know of because of his amazing talents displayed through many shows. I only started paying attention to him after watching him busking in the Korean program titled Begin Again 3 - Italy. He is a genius and so gifted. He can just spontaneously create some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Now, people are chanting "Henry in"!

Henry's speech was fantastic. This inspiring speech has inspired many. we should promote it vigorously. 亨利這場精彩絕倫的演講太具有啟發性了，值得一再回味！Why Not！

[@user-br2st3yu2h]

Henry has really experienced too much. He has been suffering for the first half of his life. No matter how much damage the net explosion can defeat him, those sunspots can get away from Henry

[@user-wh3oe3ep2h]

I am sorry for Henry as he struggled in the beginning, but to me, it was the most beautiful element in shaping and nurturing Henry of today....as his father and family were supportive of him while he was having a hard time. .. In fact, I had longer experience with my trauma or rejection overseas than him.. but my family members didn't understand .... ...of course, I don't want to change my family with any body else but.... anyway, Henry has his guardian angel, too...I luv it.

[@lulu-kj4ek]

Like Henry’s speech，always support you，you are full of energy and positive.
