???? Love of the White Snake (1978)

[dleedlee]

I don't know who Lee Yae Sung is but that's the lead actress, Brigitte Lin/Lin Ching Hsia and Chin Chi-Min (White snake and Green Snake) with Charlie Chin.

This is a Taiwanese-South Korean co-production. There are 2 versions of this movie. In the South Korean version, Lee plays a prominent role (she appears in 3rd position in the Korean poster), but in the Taiwanese poster and DVD, her name does not appear, so I suspect her role has been reduced.

*update: So kind of like Li Bingbing in Transformers 4 or Zhang Jingchu in Mission Impossible

Okay, I see that now. So presumably that's her on the first poster, she must play Green Snake in alt version; but I dont' think that's her in the stills. Looks more like Chin Chi Min than woman in poster.
In HKFA, Lee Yae Sung is listed next to last. Just noticed her DOB says 1920, so she would be 58 y.o.? First film credits begin in 1956.

And that is Chin Han in the first one, imo.

Or possibly, she is a he and plays the monk? Found this on the Japanese VHS version

Also, if you wonder why Li Han Hsiang is listed as the director in the link above, it seems SSu-Ma Keh is a pseudonym for LHH.

That is possible, but the HKFA says they are different people.

I know that, hence no INOO.
My guess is that LHH was under contract w/Shaw at the time and the alias allowed him to work on Golden Harvest projects.

Add'l notes for myself.
