Malaysian actor Shaun Chen has returned to the country after his father was killed in a hit-and-run accident.

The 46-year-old Emerald Hill (2025) star was on vacation in Bangkok when the accident occurred on March 28, as an earthquake in Myanmar sent tremors across the Thai capital. Chen, who is based in Johor Bahru with his wife and two daughters, has since returned to his home town in Negeri Sembilan for his father’s wake and to settle his affairs.
