Chi On Kang or better known as Marcus Chin (Chinese: 陈建彬; pinyin: Chén Jiànbīn, born 1954) is a Singaporean actor, host and singer.

Chin joined the Singapore Broadcasting Corporation during the 1970s. During the 1990s, he was mainly known for starring in comedic roles in the long-running Comedy Nite (搞笑行动) and various shows alongside Mark Lee, Henry Thia, Moses Lim, Jack Neo and John Cheng.

Chin voluntarily left from J-Team with one year remaining on his 10-year contract after he divorced his wife, Murong Ying, to be with his girlfriend, Eileen Cheah. Due to the incident, he felt that it will affect J-Team's image and hence, left J-Team.

Besides acting and singing, Chin works as a deejay on Love 97.2FM.

Marcus was married to Taiwanese singer Murong Ying in 1987. They divorced after Marcus's infidelity was discovered as he was dating his personal assistant, Eileen Cheah, at that time.

Eileen gave birth to their daughter, Elise, in Malaysia on 18 August 2010.
