She is most famous for her portrayal of three of the characters from the three dramas of Jin Yong are her heavenly role of Xiaolongnü along with Andy Lau as Yang Guo in the 1983 TVB adaptation of Louis Cha's Wuxia novel The Return of the Condor Heroes,Wang Yuyan on The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (1982), and as the innocent Xiaozhao with Adam Cheng as Zhang Wuji on The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber (1978).

In 1982, she also portrayed Wang Yuyan in television and film adaptations of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. Idy was more popular in her small screen work, however she was in many good films from the early 1980s to the early 1990s like Casino Raiders.

Off-screen, the long 5-year (1978–1983) romance between Idy and Chow Yun-fat also made headlines in the early days of their TV careers. The shooting of the TVB series The Return of the Condor Heroes resulted in Andy Lau's unrequited love with her.[1] Idy also settled in New York, U.S. during her short marriage with business man Peter Chan Siu-Moo.

Idy Chan has become less active in the showbiz since 1993. In 2007, she returned to shoot the TVB series Catch Me Now, which also marked her comeback to the showbiz. Ever since, she occasionally appears on TV shows in Mainland China and Hong Kong. Besides running her own and family businesses in advertising and restaurant, she's also an active volunteer of many charities.

Lottery streak
