Biography
Two of his best roles were in Deep Thrust and When Tae Kwon Do Strikes, both starring Angela Mao. He started appearing in films as a young child, so he definitely learned his way around the camera (which would serve him later as a director). He is a top Choreographer and along with friend and fellow classmate Tsui Chung-Sin, they starred in the excellent Kung Fu Vs Yoga. Other movies that he's done the choreography for include Death Duel Of Kung Fu, Thundering Mantis, and the Shaw classic - Lion Vs Lion, where he shares a incredible fight-scene, with Wang Lung Wei.
He has had a long and distinguished career in films and has made a successful transition from stuntman to Director. He directed the film Hocus Pocus, which (basically) hit close to home, in that it was about a Peking Opera troupe and it starred a lot of his Opera classmates (as well as friends from Jim Yuen's Opera School). Most remember him getting beat up by Angela Mao in such classics as Deep Thrust and When Tae Kwon Do Strikes, where he played a Japanese.
