Yu Man-Wai = Hsiao Mai-Chia

Postby Teddy Wong » Sat Nov 02, 2019 3:49 am

Yu Man-Wai (???) and Hsiao Mai-Chia (???) are the same person.
"???" means "Little Karl Maka"

Somebody identified Yu Man-Wai in "Inspector of King" and "The First Professional Killer", without noticing that Hsiao Mai-Chia is credited in both movies.

I checked his filmography, and that's how he's credited in the movies:

Ming Ji Cang Sang (1990) [as ???]
Guys in Ghost Hand (1991) [as ???]
Devil and Master (1991) [as ???]
Yellow Rain (1991) [as ???]
Ghost Story of Kam Ping Mui (1991) [as ?]
Behind the Curtain (1992) [as ?]
Life Is a Bet (1992) [as ???]
Jiu Ming Guai Mao (1992) [as ?]
Yan Ke Lin Men (1992) [as ???]
Tattoo Girl (1993) [as ???]
Black Magic (1993) [as ?]
Naked Angel (1996) [uncredited]
The Island of Greed (1997) [uncredited]
The First Professional Killer (1997) [as ???]
Inspector of King (1997) [as ???]

So in most of his movies he is credited as ???. I couldn't find where he's credited as ???, but it seems more like a typing mistake. So I suggest to change his main name to ???, and also the romanized name should be different, because ? and ? have different sounds. The man is from Taiwan, and all of his movies are Taiwanese or HK-Taiwanese co-productions. So this is also a good reason to change his name to Taiwanese romanization.
