Chor Meng draws people to him with his endearing image. Part of the reason could be because of his boy-next-door appeal and affable nature. He remains relatively down to earth despite being in the entertainment circuit for over 10 years.

Chor Meng started his career in MediaCorp Studios after winning Star Search in 1990, a bi-annual nationwide talent search. Since then, he has never failed to make it to the Top 10 Most Popular Male Artistes in Star Awards, an award ceremony for TV personalities, since its inception in 1994.

He is able to immerse himself so well into his characters that viewers often have a lasting impression of his roles. This was evident when he bagged the Best Actor award in Star Awards 2000 in Hainan Kopi Tales, followed by a nomination in the same category in 2002 for his role in The Reunion. His popularity has also spread across the causeway as he was voted the Most Popular MediaCorp Male Artiste in Malaysia in 2000. Chor Meng made his first crossover to English sitcom in Mr Kiasu, earning pretty fanciful results from audiences all over. Springs of Life was another huge success, with Chor Meng playing a key role in making the 60-episode serial one of the highest-rated prime time sitcom.

Now, a well-known household name, Chor Meng has gone from acting in drama series to hosting large-scale events including overseas collaboration with Taiwan and China.
