ViuTV is a Cantonese language general entertainment television channel in Hong Kong operated by HK Television Entertainment (HKTVE), whose parent company PCCW also operates the IPTV platform Now TV and the media streaming service Viu. It is privately owned and is therefore funded entirely by advertising. The channel serves as a free-to-air syndicator for television programmes of Now TV. Its sister station is the English-language channel ViuTVsix. The boy band Mirror became known following the ViuTV's talent show Goodnight Show - King Maker.
