Ku Long and Jin Yong are not the same person

[pjshimmer]

The DB has combined 2 authors, Jin Yong (Louis Cha) and Gu Long (Ku Long) into one name under Ku Long. This is incorrect. With that, the DB also credits this name to stories written by both novelists, which is incorrect. For example, Eagle Shooting Heroes is by Jin Yong, while The Full Moon Scimitar is by Gu Long.<br><br>

I'm not doubting you, PJ, but could you produce some evidence for this ? There are a number of apparently independent sources on the 'net which assert that Ku Long wrote under several aliases, including Jin Rong.<br><br>I'm asking because I'd like to see more detailed info.<br><br>
