Background

Law's older brother Law Wai-ping was an actor for TVB during the 1980s.[1] In 1987, Law launched her own acting career at the age of 17.[1] Despite her lack of professional acting experience at the time, Law was cast in a lead role in the 1987 Hong Kong television series The Legend of the Book and the Sword.[1] She portrayed Fok-ching-tung in the series, a television adaptation of Louis Cha's The Book and the Sword, which marked her first dramatic role.[1]

Law was next cast in A Friend in Need, which co-starred Jaime Chik, Simon Yam, and Leon Lai.[1]

Law dated Singaporean magnate and businessman Liu Chee Ming for eleven years. The couple married in 2008.[1]

Her diagnosis with pancreatic cancer led to her retirement from acting.[1] Law held a farewell party in February 2012 before moving to Singapore with her husband for treatment.[1] Guests, composed of twenty friends, included actresses Kitty Lai, Sheren Tang, and Monica Chan.[1] Law died at her home in Singapore on June 30, 2012, at the age of 45.[1]
