Khalil Fong (Chinese: 方大同; born 14 July 1983) is a Hong Kong–based singer-songwriter and producer.

Fong grew up in Hawaii, Shanghai, and Guangzhou before launching his music career in Hong Kong. He is notable for introducing a more sophisticated R&B and soul sound to the Chinese music market, drawing inspiration from artists like Stevie Wonder, Musiq Soulchild and Earth, Wind & Fire.

Following the release of his 2016 album Journey to the West, Fong had to step back from making music due to health concerns. He made a comeback in 2024 with his new album The Dreamer, announcing his return to music creation.

Fong is a member of the Baháʼí Faith.[1] He is a vegetarian.[2]
