The "ng" sound (velar nasal, /ŋ/) is pronounced by raising the back of your tongue to the soft palate, blocking airflow through the mouth, and letting the sound resonate through your nose, like the end of "sing" or "king". When "ng" appears in English words like "singing," you often don't fully pronounce the 'g' (it's just /ŋ/), but in names like the surname "Ng," it's typically approximated as "Ing" or by holding the nasal sound as in "thing" or "hang," sometimes with a slight 'g' release.
Ng (pronounced [ŋ̍]; English approximation often /əŋ/ əng or /ɪŋ/ ing or /ɛŋ/ eng) is both a Cantonese transliteration of the Chinese surnames 吳/吴 (pinyin: Wú) and 伍 (pinyin: Wǔ) and a Hokkien transcription of the surnames 黃/黄 (Pe̍h-ōe-jī: N̂ɡ; pinyin: Huáng) and 阮 (Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ńg; pinyin: Ruǎn).
Since the NG [ŋ] is a single sound, it means there's actually no G sound. It's not a big deal if you do pronounce a G sound, though. What is most important is that you don't pronounce an N sound instead of an NG sound at the end of words, because that may lead to misunderstanding.
