20-year-old Gigi Yim (Gigi), once hailed as TVB’s “golden egg,” failed to reach an agreement to renew her contract with TVB. Since late April 2024, she was frozen out by TVB for over a year, with almost all work suspended, and she was absent from important events such as anniversary galas. By the end of September 2025, as her contract with TVB officially ended, her profile was removed from TVB’s official artiste database, marking her formal departure and the conclusion of their collaboration.
On September 29, Gigi Yim appeared at the press conference for the musical “A Beam of Light – The Memory of Charles K. Kao.” Speaking to HK01 about her new start and turning a new page, Gigi Yim said: “Actually, my contract with TVB is over, and now I’ve started my own company, with just four people. I welcome other record companies to approach me, because I don’t know how long my own company can last, haha. (Do you feel there were a lot of restrictions at TVB and now you’re more free?) Definitely not, I’m very free. Maybe our directions just didn’t align, but honestly, our relationship is fine.”
Asked if she’s worried about being banned by TVB, Gigi jokingly said: “If you want them to ban me, then let them ban me! (Can you sing the songs you released while you were with TVB?) I think that would be a bit difficult. I believe everything needs to be communicated, and I think things will work out after discussing it. (Haven’t discussed yet?) Right, because I haven’t had a chance to sing other songs, so that topic hasn’t come up yet.”#
