Biography

[edit]

Chiu was raised in Taoyuan, Taiwan.[1] He wasn't interested in performing until a friend invited him to participate in a competition during junior high school.[2] At the age of 17, he was invited to join an acting agency in Taipei, only to discover that it was a scam.[3][4] He later attended Fu Jen Catholic University and obtained a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy.[5][6] After graduation, Chiu explored various career paths and participated in a singing competition. However, aside from his work as a cast extra in films, all of his endeavors ended in failure.[3][4]

In 2017, Chiu received his breakout role as Tony in the cult film Story in Taipei at the age of 31.[3] The role garnered him widespread recognition, and many began to refer to him by his character's name "Tony".[3][7] He was subsequently cast in larger film roles,[3] and landed another lead role in the 2019 homosexual romance film The Teacher [zh].[8] Chiu's performances, which included several nude scenes, received positive acclaim once again,[3] and he received a nomination for Best New Performer in the 56th Golden Horse Awards with the role.[9] In 2021, he was cast in a main role in the drama film Final Exam [zh] and a recurring role in the Netflix romance series More Than Blue: The Series.[10][11] Chiu also applied to National Taiwan University of Arts to pursue a Master of Arts in performing arts in the same year.[6][12]
