Raised in Los Angeles, California, he attended the University of California at Berkeley, graduating in 1997. He is the son of top 60's-70's Shaw Brothers Studios actress Jenny Hu and director Kang Wei, also a younger brother of Yin Ziyang.

Terence made his film debut in Yonfan's 1998 film "Bishonen" opposite Daniel Wu, one of his close friends and frequent collaborators. Terence has also released a solo album in Taiwan in 1999 titled "Undecided", which met with limited success. He did not return to singing until 2005.
