Background
Born Choi Sze-pui, Choi was born in Hong Kong and her ancestry can be traced back to Zhongshan, Guangdong. Her father was a police officer, which is the reason why Choi has stated her childhood education was quite strict. However, on television, Choi recalls her father's strict discipline was correct so that she can become a good person.
Choi attended Po Primary School and St. Paul Middle School and went abroad to study in New Zealand when she was thirteen. The experience encouraged her to continue studying abroad; she later went to Germany to study ethnology and became fluent with the German language.[3] In 2013, she withdrew from her studies and went back to Hong Kong to participate in the Miss Hong Kong pageant. She won first runner-up in the pageant.
