[2009.06.05] FROM VILLAIN KIN TO WONG FEI HUNG

Uncle Kin in 1975 joined TVB. His first television series was GUNG FU YIT, which was right up his alley. Then he performed in many classic series, including HOTEL, HEAVEN SWORD AND DRAGON SABRE, RACING PEAK (DAI HUNG), THE GIANTS (KEUNG YUN), LEGEND OF CONDOR HEROES 1983 (SEH DIU YING HUNG JUEN ji DUNG CHE SAI DUK); he also continued his evil ways in television. In HOTEL he played Ching Yat Lung, who looked like arighteous hotel CEO but underneath he was a big villain who was smugglingand trafficking drugs; in THE LEGEND OF THE BOOK AND THE SWORD he played Cheung Jiu Chung, who was evil to the bones. The raise of the corner of his mouth and his eyebrow were all his trademark villain expressions.

THE LEGEND OF THE BOOK AND THE SWORD

With his eyebrow and corner of his mouth raised, Uncle Kin already told everyone, "I am evil."

Accepted As A Good Guy

HEAVEN SWORD AND DRAGON SABER's Golden Mane Lion King was also Uncle Kin's representative work, but he once defended Golden Mane Lion King. He claimed that he was not a villain, but a tragic figure who had too many tragedies in his life and was led to believe no one in the world was good. In the end he still turned good.

Deborah Li (Dik Bor Lai) played Ching Yat Long (Shek Kin)'s mistress in HOTEL

After playing many villains, Uncle Kin honestly said that he wanted to play a good guy. Thus in television he played many gentle elder roles, like THE GOOD, THE BADY AND THE UGLY (MONG JUNG YUN)'s Lung Koon Sam, THE BROTHERS (CHUN CHING)' So Dai Pang, THE FEUD OF TWO BROTHERS (LAU MUN DAI HUNG)'s Grandfather. The audience accepted all ofthem. Countless top artists have worked with Uncle Kin, like Connie Chan Bo Chu, Josephine Siao Fong Fong, Chow Yun Fat, Carol Cheng Yui Ling, Deborah Li (Dik Bor Lai), and Jackie Chan.
